The Globalisation of God
Author: Dara Molloy
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780953479269
Category : Celtic Church
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In today's world, globalisation is a word that describes the ubiquitous spread of multinational corporations and their influence into every region and every country. Those who oppose globalisation today point to the damage it is doing to the natural environment, to cultural heritage and to biological diversity. They argue that it is neither transparent nor accountable, neither ecologically nor economically sustainable and that it puts profit before the democratic will of the people. This book traces the roots of this globalisation process to a belief in one god who rules the universe. The hegemonious god of Moses is a god shared by three major world religions and many other lesser ones. Together they constitute more than half the world's population. The god of Moses dismisses all other gods and goddesses and establishes one way, and one way only, of seeing the world.

Not in God's Name
Author: Jonathan Sacks
Publisher: Schocken
ISBN: 0805243356
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
***2015 National Jewish Book Award Winner*** In this powerful and timely book, one of the most admired and authoritative religious leaders of our time tackles the phenomenon of religious extremism and violence committed in the name of God. If religion is perceived as being part of the problem, Rabbi Sacks argues, then it must also form part of the solution. When religion becomes a zero-sum conceit—that is, my religion is the only right path to God, therefore your religion is by definition wrong—and individuals are motivated by what Rabbi Sacks calls “altruistic evil,” violence between peoples of different beliefs appears to be the only natural outcome. But through an exploration of the roots of violence and its relationship to religion, and employing groundbreaking biblical analysis and interpretation, Rabbi Sacks shows that religiously inspired violence has as its source misreadings of biblical texts at the heart of all three Abrahamic faiths. By looking anew at the book of Genesis, with its foundational stories of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, Rabbi Sacks offers a radical rereading of many of the Bible’s seminal stories of sibling rivalry: Cain and Abel, Isaac and Ishmael, Jacob and Esau, Joseph and his brothers, Rachel and Leah. “Abraham himself,” writes Rabbi Sacks, “sought to be a blessing to others regardless of their faith. That idea, ignored for many of the intervening centuries, remains the simplest definition of Abrahamic faith. It is not our task to conquer or convert the world or enforce uniformity of belief. It is our task to be a blessing to the world. The use of religion for political ends is not righteousness but idolatry . . . To invoke God to justify violence against the innocent is not an act of sanctity but of sacrilege.” Here is an eloquent call for people of goodwill from all faiths and none to stand together, confront the religious extremism that threatens to destroy us, and declare: Not in God’s Name.

The Knowledge of the Holy (Sea Harp Timeless series)
Author: A.W. Tozer
Publisher: Destiny Image Publishers
ISBN: 0768463548
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 153
Book Description
"What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us." Our understanding of God impacts not merely our theology, but also the way in which we practice ethics and morality — our entire lives are based on the way we answer the core question: “Who is God?” Thus, it is paramount that we have a true and accurate understanding of God. American pastor, author, and spiritual mentor, A. W. Tozer (1897-1963) believed that the vast majority of modern Christians have unwittingly adopted a “low” view of God, simultaneously gutting the Gospel of its true power, disfiguring our worship, and barring access to true spiritual power. The solution? Recapturing a true understanding of the magnitude of God's glory. In Knowledge of the Holy, Tozer offers real hope for Christians whose worship has become uninspired and lifeless, whose prayers feel like a monologue, and who feel devoid of spiritual power. Written in the accessible “language of worship,” this timeless classic will open readers’ eyes to God’s... Relentless faithfulness Vast goodness Fierce justice Transformative mercy Measureless love Triumphant holiness and more At its very core, the sin of idolatry is a wrong belief about who God is and what He is like. This essential work is a clarion call out of idolatry and all its lies into the wild grandeur of God’s majestic glory. “The heaviest obligation lying upon the Christian Church today is to purify and elevate her concept of God until it is once more worthy of Him - and of her.”
