Book Description
This book offers an incisive study on the important subject of destiny using the Holy Bible, which Christians revere as the revealed word of God. Following the Bible account, the book argues that human beings were created by God and that the Creator has a purpose for everyone he has made. It addresses such critical issues as the meaning of destiny from Gods perspective, popular misconceptions about destiny, and the Calvinist doctrine of predestination, broad types of destiny (natural destiny and supernatural destiny), Jesus Christ as the most important Bible personality that fulfilled destiny, as well as the roles of self, personal choice, natural circumstances, and the supernatural in ones destiny. Written with deep revelational interpretation of the Bible and in easy-to-read English, this book is an essential reading for all Christians, theologians, philosophers of religion, and indeed for everyone interested in understanding the purpose for their existence, including how to know and fulfill their divine destiny.

Understanding Watchman Nee
Author: Dongsheng John Wu
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1610975324
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
This book situates Nee's view within the rich heritage of the Protestant, Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox spiritual traditions, and thus renders Nee's thought more intelligible to Christians of both evangelical and more liberal persuasions. In this book Dongsheng John Wu examines Watchman Nee's thought on the spiritual life, focusing on the relationship between spiritual formation and spiritual knowledge. Different ways of acquiring spiritual understanding are explored, including the respective roles of divine illumination, intellectual studies, and life circumstances. Understanding Watchman Nee begins by synthesizing strategic aspects of Nee's teachings as well as formative events and sources in the development of Nee's own spirituality and theology. It then utilizes the critical work of contemporary theologian Mark McIntosh to bring Nee's voice into dialogue with some important figures in the history of Christian spirituality. Such interactions reveal that Nee's crucial theological convictions exhibit strong parallels with related themes found in the church's spiritual or mystical treasures.

The Transbeingness of Man
Author: Thomas Martin Newald
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 1504304047
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 556
Book Description
This book is my contribution of intuitive epistemology. This book discusses many new understandings of ultimate reality but, primarily, new understandings of the nature of God, the nature of man, and the nature and origin of our present universe. God is described as not personal, not all-powerful, not all-knowing, and not all-present. Individualized man is described as the unknowing expression of God. The universe is described as composed, in part, of the formless realm, the physical realm, the purgatorial realm, the spiritual realm, and the infinite void. The transbeingness of man is described as formless man, physical man, purgatorial man, and spiritual man. Individualized man, a nonspecific term for individualizations of infinite man, is described as alternately existing in two realities. The first reality is core reality. In core reality, individualized man is in total self-conscious unity and harmony with God. Thus, in core reality, individualized man exists in a mental self-realizing state of total harmony and bliss. The second reality is objective reality. In objective reality, individualized man experiences his infinite existence. This experiencing of existence is described as the purpose for individualized mans existence. Also, a fundamental understanding of this book is understanding the difference between real experiences and nonreal experiences. All functions within ultimate reality comprise real experiences. All experiences self-consciously created by individualized man are nonreal experiences. It is through the creative experiencing of objective existence that individualized man understands himself, God, and the purpose for his infinite existence. Finally, this book describes heaven and hell. Individualized man self-punishes himself for all his wrongdoings; God punishes no one. Hell is reserved for the individualizations of man that self-consciously reject God, but real physical hell is not a place of punishment.

Understanding the 'Imago Dei'
Author: Fr Dominic Robinson
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 140948145X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
As theologians across confessional divides try to say something significant about human dignity in our contemporary society, there is fresh interest in the ancient Christian doctrine that the human being is created in the 'imago Dei'. Theology is grounding responsibility for others and for the world around us in this common vision that the human being's infinite horizon lies in a divine calling and destiny. Robinson examines the 'imago Dei' debate through three giants of twentieth century theology - Karl Barth, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Jürgen Moltmann. This is placed against a survey of the principle developments and distinctions relating to the doctrine in the history of Christian thought, which in itself will be valuable for all students of Theology. A fresh analysis of ecumenical contributions places the development of the doctrine in the context of the ongoing process of ecumenical dialogue on the dignity of the human person, with special reference to this theme in the first encyclical of Pope Benedict XVI, Deus Caritas Est. Whilst 'imago Dei' is the focus of this book, Robinson invites the reader to see its relevance to theology as a whole on a specifically ecumenical canvas, and relates directly to more general areas of theological anthropology, grace, salvation, and the relationship between God and the world.

The Psalms from a Christian Perspective

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 485
Book Description
Is the God of the Old Testament the same God of the New Testament? The Psalms from a Christian Perspective scrutinizes each of the 150 psalms in terms of setting and what the writer is trying to say, underscoring that the writers—nearly half of the psalms are attributed to King David—struggled with the same human condition we suffer with today. This commentary on the book of Psalms also points out how each of the 150 psalms reflects or does not reflect the Christian faith. The book of Psalms is a mirror of self and a window into God. It also explains why we need a redemptive divine savior and predicts the suffering to be endured by our savior. Jesus quotes from the book of Psalms eleven times, more than any other part of the Old Testament.Jesus quotes from the book of Psalms eleven times, more than any other part of the Old Testament.
