Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Twenty-first-century Americans live in an age of information overload. Through our computers, phones, and even watches we are able to access information within seconds. However, access to information does not necessarily translate into knowledge.When Paul visited Athens in the first century, although he was impressed with the people's spirituality, he was distressed by an inscription he read on an altar: 'To an unknown God' (Acts 17:23). In the verses that follow, Paul seeks to dispel the Athenians' misconception, providing a detailed description of God.Twenty-first-century Christians can benefit from Paul's reminder. God is not unknown, for God is revealed through Scripture and through human experience. Scripturally, Jesus's character and ministry and scriptural prophecy and revelation show us who God is. Outside of Scripture, God is revealed through nature and human interaction.Each section of this book will lead readers toward a better understanding of the God they worship.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The Bible is full of stories. Some are historical and factual, meant to be taken literally. Many others are parables about spiritual and moral issues, meant to teach a deeper lesson.We don't necessarily know which stories are factual and which are not. Often, however, it doesn't matter; the meaning is what's important. Unless the story can be applied in our lives today, it's useless. Paul said, 'All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness' (2 Tim 3:16).This verse tells us that the information in the Bible is there for a purpose. When we read or hear scripture, we must let it speak to us in a personal way. Unless the passage helps us answer our questions or solve our problems, then it's not God's word to us.As we deal with fifteen of the most popular and well-known Bible stories, let's get beyond the facts to the meaning. The Bible is not a historical book or a scientific book; it's a theological book. The truth is in the lessons it teaches.This way of studying the Bible requires both thought and prayer, but it's essential to Christian growth. Always ask the following questions: What is the purpose of this passage Why was it included in the Bible What deeper meaning is it trying to express How can I apply this scripture in my everyday life Most importantly, how can it speak to me today (If these parables are presented as a series of sermons or lessons, this Preface may need to be used as an introduction to explain the format and the purpose of each one.). …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Believing something about the Bible is not the same as understanding and applying biblical truth. Seven doctrines, in particular, are widely held without questioning by many Christians. Instead of providing hope, these accepted interpretations often cause misunderstanding and harm. Longtime educators Maralene and Miles Wesner tackle these doctrines with fresh insight and solid scholarship - interpreting scriptures through a consistent and hopeful Jesus lens.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Jesus's life in Palestine was drastically different from our life in America. However, as Christians we're expected to emulate his beliefs and actions. Trying to discover and salvage the true character and message of Jesus from the Gospels is a real challenge. Nevertheless, we can study the Gospels and extrapolate the truth from these stories.It's difficult to know the mind and follow the example of a person who lived so long ago, but the Gospels do include some frequently overlooked vignettes that teach us about Jesus's personal character, values, and methods of ministry. They can help us determine what Jesus would say and do about current issues. …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - We've pastored churches for more than fifty years and taught in public schools and universities for many years. We've also published both religious and educational materials. Our whole life has been dedicated to bridging the gap between the spiritual and the intellectual worlds. Therefore, when we were asked to develop and teach a course in religion for a state college, we viewed it as an exciting challenge.We believe faith must be practical and religion must be relevant. With these principles in mind, we wrote a course that surveys today's church. It's not our purpose to compare religions or prove doctrine. Instead, this book examines the 'other side.' It avoids the orthodox party line. It seeks to disturb complacency, override conditioning, and challenge mindset. It moves parables out of the first century and presents new spiritual models.We encourage readers to analyze and actualize their faith. Some observations may be provoking and disturbing, but any criticism comes from concern rather than from cynicism.Whether you are religious or not-whether your views are liberal, conservative, or fundamental-we believe you will profit from information concerning these vital issues. It's our objective to eliminate spiritual illiteracy and enable individuals to speak intelligently when doctrinal and ethical questions arise.We hope this book will help both leaders and churches to begin truly marching-instead of stumbling-to Zion.…
