Book Description
From the author of the bestselling novel The Shack and the New York Times bestsellers Cross Roads and Eve comes a compelling, conversational exploration of twenty-eight assumptions about God—assumptions that just might be keeping us from experiencing His unconditional, all-encompassing love. In his wildly popular novels, Wm. Paul Young portrayed the Triune God in ways that challenged our thinking—sometimes upending long-held beliefs, but always centered in the eternal, all-encompassing nature of God’s love. Now, in Wm. Paul Young’s first nonfiction book, he invites us to revisit our assumptions about God—this time using the Bible, theological discussion, and personal anecdotes. Paul encourages us to think through beliefs we’ve presumed to be true and consider whether some might actually be false. Expounding on the compassion fans felt from the “Papa” portrayed in The Shack—now a major film starring Sam Worthington and Octavia Spencer—Paul encourages you to think anew about important issues including sin, religion, hell, politics, identity, creation, human rights, and helping us discover God’s deep and abiding love.
GOD'S Eternal Truth
Author: Tyrone Wims
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1644924722
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
God's Eternal Truth is a tapestry of food for thought, poems, and prayers that touch the fabric of our spirituality and faith. Each selection separately attempts to reach a clearer understanding of our relationship with God and one another. Collectively they are woven into an expressive quilt of warm spiritual uplift. Too often, we unnecessarily complicate our divine connection with a shroud of pomp and circumstance. We see only what we want in a kaleidoscope of alternative colorful images that misrepresent the true reality of our life experience. This book is not a personal journal but one individual's illuminating lightbulb moments. It sheds light on issues and concerns we all share in our life journey. The divine threads of love, faith, and hope presented at birth are like a ball of yarn. This book is a compilation of these elements knitted together to form a constantly expanding garment of truthful awareness. It is by sharing the basic life lessons learned that we begin to wear a suit of truthful understanding. This collection of spiritual reflections are my food for thoughts, poems, and prayers resulting from my ongoing travels along the soul-stirring river of truth. They consist of my internal visions inspired by the Holy Spirit. We all have pieces of the collective puzzle of divine truth. When we share and compare them with one another in fellowship, we come a little closer to understanding the big picture of God's eternal truth. With eyes wide-open, we see glimpses of the truth that God has for us, spirit divine!

Rethinking Hell
Author: Christopher M. Date
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1630871605
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Most evangelical Christians believe that those people who are not saved before they die will be punished in hell forever. But is this what the Bible truly teaches? Do Christians need to rethink their understanding of hell? In the late twentieth century, a growing number of evangelical theologians, biblical scholars, and philosophers began to reject the traditional doctrine of eternal conscious torment in hell in favor of a minority theological perspective called conditional immortality. This view contends that the unsaved are resurrected to face divine judgment, just as Christians have always believed, but due to the fact that immortality is only given to those who are in Christ, the unsaved do not exist forever in hell. Instead, they face the punishment of the "second death"--an end to their conscious existence. This volume brings together excerpts from a variety of well-respected evangelical thinkers, including John Stott, John Wenham, and E. Earl Ellis, as they articulate the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for conditionalism. These readings will give thoughtful Christians strong evidence that there are indeed compelling reasons for rethinking hell.

Eternal Truth
Author: Rear Admiral Joseph H. Miller
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1512712868
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
We must discover the real world. All generations are struggling for truth! Truth is our heritage and gift to the next generation, so we must support education for all people. Some generations have essentially halted progress, and others are making progress only because of a few. In our world, we must proclaim religious and free speech. The concept of human liberty is more than 4,000 years old and is repeated by Christ Himself. We must dare to read, think, speak, and write the truth. Truth is not only violated by falsehood, but also by silence. Ignorance produces the work of monsters. Ignorance is not bliss; it is oblivion. Ignorance is sin, not innocence. Man is what he believes, coated by either truth or ignorance. Truth demands a basic standard of living for the masses to ensure security and freedom for their development. Man is master of his fate, but he must seek the truth. Truth is on the march, and nothing can stop it!
