Pacatele împotriva Duhului Sfânt
Author:
Publisher: PREOT IOAN
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 9
Book Description
Văzut de jos, omul este ceea ce l-au socotit oamenii: un animal, un instrument de muncă, o marfă, un sclav, un prizonier, un neputincios, o trestie bătută de vânt, iarbă ce se usucă, floare ce se veştejeşte. Privit de sus, omul apare în realitatea sa spirituală, de esenţă divină, ca făptură făcută după chipul şi asemănarea lui Dumnezeu, ca purtător de duh, de conştiinţă, de misiune morală. Aceasta schimbă radical perspectiva vieţii lui, schimbă sensul existenţei omului, indicând planul ei ceresc. Fără Dumnezeu, omul este un animal terestru; cu Dumnezeu omul este fiinţă spirituală, de origine divină. Sensul şi preţul omului vin de sus, nu de jos. Cei care l-au privit de sus, de la înălţimea de la care l-a văzut şi ridicat Iisus Hristos, au descoperit nobleţea, vrednicia, puterea şi menirea lui spirituală, valoarea lui morală unică în lumea făpturilor văzute, unică în universul fizic. Cu toate acestea dramele pe care le trăiesc oamenii, sărăcia, singurătatea, abandonul, grija zilei de mâine, eşecul profesional, eşecul în dragoste, sunt doar câteva din multitudinea de motive din cauza cărora tot mai multe persoane aleg să cadă în păcate împotriva Duhului Sfant. Chiar dacă în viaţă ne încearcă mari greutăţi sau deznădejdi, Dumnezeu ne-a dat şi puterea să trecem peste ele, iar prin post şi rugăciune toate ne vor părea mult mai uşoare. „ Să ne lăudăm în suferinţe, bine ştiind că suferinţa aduce răbdare. Şi răbdarea încercare, şi încercarea NǍDEJDE. Iar nădejdea nu ruşinează, pentru că iubirea lui Dumnezeu s-a vărsat în inimile noastre, prin Duhul Sfânt, cel dăruit nouă“ (Romani 5:3-4-5).

On the Mystical Life
Author: Saint Symeon (the New Theologian)
Publisher: St Vladimir's Seminary Press
ISBN: 9780881411447
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
St. Symeon the New Theologian was abbot of the monastery of St Mamas in Constantinople at the turn of the eleventh century. He was also perhaps the most remarkable and certainly the most forceful advocate of the mystical experience of God in the history of the Byzantine Church. Though they were on occasion suppressed by ecclesiastical authorities wary of his fierce enthusiasm, as well as of his claims to charismatic authority, St Symeon's writings survived in the Orthodox Church and continued to play a vital role in the several renewals of spiritual life and prayer which has sustained the Church in its often difficult history over the past millennium.

Discourses
Author: Epictetus
Publisher: Standard Ebooks
ISBN:
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
Raised a slave in Nero’s court, Epictetus would become one of the most influential philosophers in the Stoic tradition. While exiled in Greece by an emperor who considered philosophers a threat, Epictetus founded a school of philosophy at Nicopolis. His student Arrian of Nicomedia took careful notes of his sometimes cantankerous lectures, the surviving examples of which are now known as the Discourses of Epictetus. In these discourses, Epictetus explains how to gain peace-of-mind by only willing that which is within the domain of your will. There is no point in getting upset about things that are outside of your control; that only leads to distress. Instead, let such things be however they are, and focus your effort on the things that are in your control: your own attitudes and priorities. This way, you can never be thrown off balance, and tranquility is yours for the taking. The lessons in the Discourses of Epictetus, along with his Enchiridion, have continued to attract new adherents to Stoic philosophy down to the present day. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

The Myth of Ritual Murder
Author: R. Po-chia Hsia
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 9780300047462
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
From the mid-fifteenth century to the early seventeenth, German Jews were persecuted and tried for the alleged ritual murders of Christian children, whose blood purportedly played a crucial part in Jewish magical rites. In this engrossing book R. Po-Chia Hsia traces the rise and decline of ritual murder trials during that period. Using sources ranging from Christian and Kabbalistic treatises to judicial records and popular pamphlets, Hsia examines the religious sources of the idea of child sacrifice and blood symbolism and reconstructs the political context of ritual murder trials against the Jews. "This volume combines clarity of thinking, elegance of style, and exemplary scholarly attention to detail with intellectual sobriety and human compassion."--Jerome Friedman, Sixteenth Century Journal "Hsia has... succeeded in turning established knowledge to illuminatingly new purposes."--G.R. Elton, New York Review of Books "This meticulously researched and unusually perceptive book is social and intellectual history at its best."--Library Journal "A fresh perspective on an old problem by a major new talent."--Steven Ozment, Harvard University R. Po-chia Hsia, professor of history at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, is also the author of Society and Religion in Münster, 1535-1618
