Book Description
In stark contrast to the biblical skepticism of our modern age, Where God Came Down emphasizes agreementbetween the Bible and archaeology. Using Scripture as his primary ancient text and most crucial interpretive tool,author Joel Kramer examines the archaeological record for ten locations recorded in the Bible.What is the evidence that supports these sites as the actual biblical places?-is a question that Kramer seeks toanswer by analyzing five Old Testament sites and five New Testament sites.Does it matter to know if these sites are authentic?-is another critical question raised. Kramer responds witha resounding, Yes! It matters because the Bible is not a made-up account of antiquity, as many today claim.Instead, the Bible is a record of real events and actual places that can be traced through the course of centuries.Peeling back layers of dirt and time, Kramer expertly lays out the archaeological evidence for his chosen biblicalsites. But more than that, he carefully reveals the profound spiritual significance that ordinary, unimportantplaces became the setting where redemption's story played out on earth-the places Where God Came Down.

Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
In an age of biblical skepticism, Joel Kramer delivers a refreshing perspective, emphasizing the profound connection between archaeology and the Bible. Utilizing scripture as a primary ancient text and important interpretive tool, Kramer explores the archaeological record at various holy sites. "How can we know these places are authentic?" is the question The Soul of Archaeology: Finding Jesus in the Holy Places seeks to answer by examining the archaeological layers at ten commemorated sites: five Old Testament-focused and five New Testament-focused. "Does it matter to know if these sites are authentic?" some may ask. Kramer's response is a resounding, yes! It matters because the Bible is not a made-up account of antiquity as many today claim. Peeling back layers of dirt and time, Kramer uncovers the archaeological evidence pointing to divine interactions with real people which shaped real locations into sites that thousands of years later are still considered holy places.--Publisher.

Advent devotional on 1 Corinthians 13, reflecting on the source of authentic, divine, transforming love. Everyone seems to say that Christmas is about love.

Who has gone up to heaven and come down? ... What is his name, and what is the name of his son? Surely you know! (Proverbs 30:4) The most pervasive question in this life is how do we optimally access the next one?

God Has a Name
Author: John Mark Comer
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1400249570
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
What you believe about God sets the foundation of the person you will become. In God Has a Name, pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer invites you to rethink many of the prevalent myths and misconceptions about God and weigh them against what God actually tells us about himself. After all, what you believe about God will ultimately shape the type of person you become. We all live at the mercy of our ideas, and nowhere is this more true than our ideas about God. The problem is many of our ideas about God are wrong. Not all wrong, but wrong enough to form our souls in detrimental and disheartening ways. God Has a Name is a simple yet profound guide to understanding God in a new light--focusing on what God says about himself in the Bible. This one shift has the potential to radically alter how you relate to God, not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way. John Mark Comer takes you line by line through Exodus 34:6-8--Yahweh's self-revelation on Mount Sinai, one of the most quoted passages in the Bible. Along the way, Comer addresses some of the most profound questions he came across as he studied these noted lines in Exodus, including: Why do we feel this gap between us and God? Could it be that a lot of what we think about God is wrong? Not all wrong, but wrong enough to mess up how we relate to him? What if our "God" is really a projection of our own identity, ideas, and desires? What if the real God is different, but far better than we could ever imagine? No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, God Has a Name invites you to step into a fresh and biblically rooted vision of who God is that has the potential to alter your life with God and shape who you become.
