A Snarl Theology
Author: John Francis Pearring Jr.
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666757861
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
A Snarl Theology calls God a merciful creator, a big-picture divinity, bigger than anything imaginable. Scripture confirms that in the restoration of the world and all its environs, there will be a settlement between God and his creatures. A covenant to set animals and us back as we were meant to be. "I will make a covenant for them on that day, with the beasts of the field, with the birds of the air, and with the things that crawl on the ground." (Hosea 2:20) Redemption is the divine act of follow-through regarding covenant--washing away our faults, defects, and foibles and taking us into the arms of the divine. Are animals rewarded with redemption, like us--with a full restoration? To imagine that God will not reward these martyred creatures, who play a significant role in human redemption, weakens the concept and promise of paradise. Animals are sentient beyond our understanding, residents in a universe where God communicates with everyone. This animal kingdom theology implies that animals, too, hear God's voice. A Snarl Theology's hope for animals to be our redemptive allies shouldn't cancel doctrine, upset dogma, or countermand Christianity. It should increase our love of God.

You know how your stomach growls when you're really hungry? That's how it started, except the growling wasn't coming from my stomach. It was coming from behind my eyeballs.... "Help!" I screamed.

Alta:Trials
Author: R.L. Robinson
Publisher: Ricky Robinson
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
From her seat above the world, the goddess watched a rotting sea of boiling flesh spill from the dark corners of her lands, gathering and melding into a horrid beast with a single purpose, to drown her lands in suffering. The goddess leaned forward in her seat, looking down on her world, moving her vision back and forth along the endless, ever forking stream of time, searching intensely for a break in her protections. A place this creature could have exploited to get past her veil and onto Alta, hoping she would be able to seal it, preventing what was coming. She found nothing. This darkness would make it past her defenses. She had to accept that and focus on what to do next. What could she do to save her world? The answer came quickly, closely followed by a commingling of anger and disappointment. What she had to do was clear; she would need to act from within the veil. It was the only way to save Alta. It was also impossible. By her own law, the goddess couldn’t intervene directly in matters that were within the veil. Leaving her no choice. She needed a surrogate. A creature that would wield a fraction of her divinity and be reborn in her world to stand against this darkness. It was her only choice. It also made her sick to think of. In a flash, she conceived of a better idea. One that wouldn’t put her power into unworthy hands. Her vision switched to a world barren of magic and gods to find what she needed. Her sight settled on a nameless mortal. A mortal whose hands were drenched in blood and whose mind was broken beyond repair. His life was meaningless, and his soul would be damned in any just world, making him perfect. The goddess sat back in her throne and put her plans into motion. The trial of Alta had begun.
