Book Description
Some 40 years ago, I, as a searching, seeking, questioning, mortal started with studying the Bible. The Old and New Testaments. Then, just the New Testament, then just Jesus’ Sayings. I then started to dig back into the New Testament where I found just the sayings of Mary, Joseph, John the Baptist and compared their contents and volume to Just the Sayings of Jesus... What I found led me to continue digging on into the writing letters–Epistles of Paul and Peter, etc. These excavations and Scriptural expose, which some might even call controversial, have been collected into what I call The Great Bible Dig. Dig One of The Great Bible Dig uncovers some interesting questions concerning the Brain, Life and Jesus and allows the reader to ask the question WHY. Dig Two of The Great Bible Dig uncovers Words, puzzling words as well as preserving words and allows the reader to ask the question WHAT. Dig Three of The Great Bible Dig allows one to SEARCH, His Sayings and your thinkings, and will give the reader a useful alternative for changing one's thought and thinkings. Dig Four of The Great Bible Dig allows one to SEEK His Light, His Truth and His Righteousness .

Things Seen and Unseen
Author: Orion Edgar
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1498202624
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
The philosophy of Maurice Merleau-Ponty was developing into a radical ontology when he died prematurely in 1961. Merleau-Ponty identified this nascent ontology as a philosophy of incarnation that carries us beyond entrenched dualisms in philosophical thinking about perception, the body, animality, nature, and God. What does this ontology have to do with the Catholic language of incarnation, sacrament, and logos on which it draws? In this book, Orion Edgar argues that Merleau-Ponty's philosophy is dependent upon a logic of incarnation that finds its roots and fulfillment in theology, and that Merleau-Ponty drew from the Catholic faith of his youth. Merleau-Ponty's final abandonment of Christianity was based on an understanding of God that was ultimately Kantian rather than orthodox, and this misunderstanding is shared by many thinkers, both Christian and not. As such, Merleau-Ponty's philosophy suggests a new kind of natural theology, one that grounds an account of God as ipsum esse subsistens in the questions produced by a phenomenological account of the world. This philosophical ontology also offers to Christian theology a route away from dualistic compromises and back to its own deepest insight.

The Daily Guide
Author: Atarah Shalom
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 151277409X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Included in The Daily Guide is everything you need to be guided in your day to day walk with God in His Word; thats why the book is called what it is! Interested in spending more time in prayer? Open it to the prayer section and begin to develop a closer dialog with God. If youre curious about what the Word says about your identity in Christ, depression or other topics, theres a devotional for exactly the challenge youre facing. In the Bible, Paul was on the road to Damascus when he saw a bright light and heard the voice of God. Those traveling with him saw the light, but did not hear Gods voice. You may see the light of Gods Word written, but can you hear the voice behind it? Your ability to hear from God is crucial to experiencing success, deliverance and manifestations. The Daily Guide is designed for you to not only hear, but have confidence in the voice of God. Psalm 29:1-5 says that when you hear and obey the voice of God, there are no obstacles that can stand in your way. The Bible is Gods Word that came from His voice. You must know Gods written Word in order to understand His spoken Word. This is why The Daily Guide is filled with the Word of God, but reading the scriptures alone wont bring deliverance, results or manifestation. The Daily Guide is meant to give you understanding and clarity of the Word of God, which is the door that leads you into the secret things of God. When you meditate on the Word, God will speak. Like Paul, when you hear the voice of God and dont just see the light, your life will change forever.

One of the most gifted poets of our time, Adam Zagajewski is a contemporary classic.

Early Christian Doctrines
Author: J. N. D. Kelly
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 9780826452528
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 532
Book Description
"A history of doctrines of the early Church, written and arranged with exceptional clarity by a leading patristic scholar, the principal of St. Edmund Hall, Oxford. Canon Kelly describes the development of the principal Christian doctrines from the close of the first century to the middle of the fifth, and from the end of the apostolic age to the council of Chalcedon. His book thus covers the great doctrinally creative period in the Church's history, the centuries in which there was a constant upsurge of fresh ideas before the settled formalism of both the East and West. He gives the student and invaluable outline of Church history and patrology against which to place the evolving theological doctrines which he summarises and expounds" -- Back cover.
