What do rocks, pink balls, and a nap have in common? Each is an ordinary object/event that points to a deeper spiritual truth. Yet we are often blind to the spiritual realities hidden in our every day. GLORY in Disguise: Seeing God in Our Every Day unveils to the reader how God's presence and life-giving power, His glory, are often hidden in the ordinariness of our lives on this earth. Each reflection sets up the pattern for the book - a Scripture, followed by a story/illustration from everyday life, leading into scriptural application and encouragement. Each concludes with a poem (written by Penny Mandeville), a prayer, and suggestions for journaling.

Discovering our strengths, weaknesses and opponents on the journey exposes the reality of the spiritual realm - and just how fortified it is. Each installment of Doors, Gates, and Thresholds will equip you to successfully navigate the unseen structural components of both the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of darkness, leading you to victory upon victory. This, in turn, will empower the corporate expression of the Ekklesia, releasing power in greater measure, and you bring your victory to bear upon the whole. His sound reverberates. Can you hear Him speak your name?
Muchos de nosotros tenemos una actitud ambigua ante el futuro. Tenemos una mezcla de fascinación y miedo. Nos gustaría saber qué va a ocurrir, pero a la vez no estamos muy seguros de querer saberlo. Con la perspectiva de toda una vida de estudio y predicación, David Pawson guía al lector a través de las enseñanzas bíblicas sobre la Segunda Venida y las últimas cosas (muerte, juicio, cielo e infierno).Basado en charlas originales y presentado aquí por primera vez en forma de libro, este tema resulta especialmente pertinente en el contexto de la actual pandemia, una más en la larga lista de crisis mundiales. Con su estilo cálido y cautivador, David brinda tanto un reto como un consuelo a quienes, quizá por primera vez, se plantean la cuestión de la mortalidad y la vida después de la muerte. Al hacerlo, aborda cuestiones pertinentes como: ¿Qué ocurrirá cuando Cristo regrese? ¿Cuándo será? ¿Qué es el infierno? ¿Quién irá allí? ¿Cómo será el cielo? ¿Serán nuestras relaciones iguales allí? ¿Cómo debemos prepararnos ahora para la otra vida? Basándose en las enseñanzas de Jesús, David nos insta a prestar atención a las advertencias de Cristo sobre los dolores de parto señales y la lucha espiritual y física en los últimos tiempos. Reta a los cristianos a tratar la vida como una preparación para el mundo venidero y a encontrar consuelo en la promesa del cielo, donde Dios enjugará todas las lágrimas de sus ojos.
Wir befinden uns im Jahr 240. Ein Christ namens Africanus schreibt einen Brief an Origenes mit vielen Einwänden und Schlägen gegen gewisse Passagen und Bücher, von denen er meint, sie gehören gar nicht in die Heilige Schrift weil sie gefälscht seien. Anlass sind die Geschichten von "Susanna" und "Bel und Drache", die die Juden aus ihrer Schrift entfernten, die Christen aber noch im Buch Daniel haben. Origenes, der alle griechischen und hebräischen Texte jahrzehntelang Wort für Wort studierte und verglich, schreibt einen langen Antwortbrief, der uns einen tiefen Einblick in die Lehre und Praxis der Gemeinden Christi im dritten Jahrhundert gibt, wie sie mit der Frage umgingen, die bis heute viele Menschen irritiert und das Christentum spaltet. Wir stehen hier, 100 Jahre vor Entstehung der Römisch-Katholischen Kirche, am Beginn der Diskussion, ob die sogenannten Apokryphen zurecht von den Juden aus dem Alten Testament geworfen wurden oder ob sie nicht doch wahr und von Gott inspiriert sind. Der Brief von Origenes an Africanus ist die beste Anleitung, die wir von den frühen Christen zum Thema Apokryphen haben. Er sagt uns, was in all diesen Fällen zu tun ist.
Bible readers have always loved the book of Daniel, inspired by heroes like Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who faced persecutions and strove to remain committed to God while held captive in a secular society. But when reading the Book's prophetic and apocalyptic sections, many people feel mystified and confused.In Daniel: Prophet to the Nations, John M. Oakes presents a balanced and objective attempt to unlock the prophetic message of Daniel, while placing the Book in its proper historical context. For the twenty-first century reader who is able to look back in time and see how countless specific prophecies have been realized, the validity of the message of Daniel is proven in a very convincing manner. The faith and deep convictions that can be gained from understanding the book of Daniel will help Christians apply the practical examples of righteous living (even in a godless culture) to their own individual lives.

Nearing the end of the 2021 elk season with a limited quota draw tag in his pocket, Joel encountered the bull that would not only be meat in the freezer or a trophy on the wall but would inspire a modern-day parable to bring hope to the hurting.The heart of Broken is so aptly reflected in the theme verse, Matthew 11:28. So many have lost a will to fight, a purpose in life, and even a reason to live. They seek peace, rest, and hope in their darkest hours. Just like Joel's broken bull was special to him, so too each broken soul is deeply loved and special to the God of the universe.The Broken video series, book, and group study all speak to your pain through five key elements that will allow you to exhale as you face your darkest valleys.
Even though this book is about Daniel 2, it's not really about Daniel 2! It's really about Jesus! Come tag along on this exciting journey of re-discovery! Even if you think you've long understood all details of the prophecy, you may just discover a most important new insight and find yourself dumbfounded by precise prophetic fulfillments in Christian history that once sent chills up the author's spine. You too may discover the fuller gospel meaning embedded within ancient cryptic symbols, almost like a "hidden picture"! Daniel 2, specifically, unveils the very Foundation Stone of all later Bible prophecies, and-correctly understood-it places the Lamb of God, His unfathomable love for sinners, and the heart conquest of His Kingdom (of glory and of grace) squarely back at the center of all Bible prophecy. That Christ-centering "hidden picture" is nothing short of a self-portrait of Jesus and the prophesied growth of his New Testament "kingdom of God" message into all the world, of his royal incarnate rule from its tiniest beginnings in Bethlehem to its mountainous NO END in eternity! This book is really about a too-often "hidden" message that Herald believes God always intended to shout out to our anxiety-ridden world today, as we now teeter on the brink of eternity. It is the timeless and yet so timely message of "HOPE!" Real hope! A long-growing hope (as you will discover)-embodied in a Person-that reaches all the way down to even the most apparently hopeless if she or he will only recognize it and take hold...of JESUS! "In this magnificent book, which at times seems like a spy thriller, Joshua Herald methodically details insights into Scripture. He does so with such clarity and precision that you will wonder how you could have missed coming to the same conclusion he did." ~ Ron Price MA, author of Play Nice in Your Sandbox at Church, Play Nice in Your Sandbox at Work, and Play Nice in Your Sandbox at Home "Hang onto your seats for this rollercoaster! Joshua Herald pens a twisting, turning ride to a better understanding of Daniel's beastly prophecies and the mysterious stone that strikes the colossal, metallic image.~ Chris Conrad PG (professional geologist) If you have found the insights in this book to be spiritually uplifting and helpful, please share this title with a friend!
As humans, we think in images and cannot do otherwise. Thus, metaphor and imagery, often viewed as complex literary devices, are in fact the very building blocks of human thought and essential components for understanding the nature of God.Exploring how the God of Scripture reveals himself through metaphor and imagery, Dr. Adam Szumorek utilizes Cognitive Linguistics to help students, teachers, and preachers understand how meaning is communicated in Scripture and conceptualized within the human brain. He provides a theological framework for applying Cognitive Linguistics in biblical exegesis, demonstrating its value in aiding our understanding of biblical texts and in communicating that understanding to others through sermons that speak to people's minds, hearts, and imaginations. Both richly conceptual and deeply practical, this book equips readers to communicate the unseen, allowing others to taste, touch, and see the invisible yet incarnate God.
