This book offers a critical understanding of the interface between holiness and intercession. The author reflectively narrates some of the selected biblical personalities and how holy living was exemplified in their interceding for others. Critically, the book argues that holiness in its intrinsic nature is about intercession for others. From the Old Testament to the New Testament, holiness is all about intercession, as has been ably demonstrated in this book starting with Abraham, Moses, David, and Solomon and going all the way to Jesus Christ, who sits on the right hand of God interceding for us.
Michael A. Milton uncovers the treasures of one of the Bible's regularly overlooked books in this pastoral treatment of Leviticus. God's call changed everything for the Israelites. Amid the vast, severe wilderness landscape of the Sinai region, in sun-scorched sorrow and disappointment over a recent national sin - the creation and worship of an idol of smelted jewelry - life abruptly changes. With the first line of Leviticus, "And the Lord called," God interrupts time and space, regret and reason, futility and hope. He reveals the pattern of the gospel: the holiness of God, the problem of human sin, God's plan of salvation, His call to holiness through His gracious provision. He shows a way for sinful humans to live in the presence of a holy God. Leviticus for modern-day Christians This call doesn't just affect the ancient Israelites - Milton shows how Leviticus still speaks to Christ's followers today. This book of the law points consistently to Jesus, the fullness and fulfilment of every antitype. It reveals to us in stark terms the abhorrence of sin, and the barrier it creates between mankind and God. Beginning with a helpful overview of Leviticus, and after providing some beneficial information about its title, authorship, time and biblical context, Milton tackles the book in four sections: Called to Worship (chapters 1-7) Called to Ministry (chapters 8-10) Called to Purity (chapters 11-16) Called to Holiness (chapters 17-27) Throughout, we see how this call applies not only to the ancient Israelites, but also to us. Get into this fascinating book Approaching God will be excellent for personal bible study, or for a pastor or small group leader working through the book.
Der Jalkut Schimoni ist ein Sammelwerk rabbinischer Auslegungen zur gesamten Hebräischen Bibel. Unerforscht ist, nach welchen Kriterien die Auslegungen ausgewählt wurden und ob das Werk als umfassendes Nachschlagewerk für exegetische Fragen, zur Verbindung von Bibelauslegung in Talmud und Midrasch oder zur Reform der rabbinischen Auslegungstradition konzipiert wurde. Die Übersetzung des Werkes ist ein erster Schritt, diese Fragen zu beantworten.

La historia de la Biblia en español que muestra los 8 grandes traducciones al español en formato paralelo. Traducciones de la Enzinas 1543, Pineda 1556, Reina 1569, Valera 1602, Scio 1793, Mora y Pratt 1865, BFBS 1909, y el ABS de 1960.Francisco de Enzinas (1518-1552)Fue el primer traductor del nuevo testamento al castellano. La Inquisición católica lo encarceló por traducir y publicar las Escrituras Griegas Cristianas. Este, hijo de un rico terrateniente español, empezó a traducir las Escrituras Griegas Cristianas al castellano mientras todavía era un joven estudiante.Juan Pérez de Pineda (1500-1567)Imprimió su traducción del las Escrituras Griegas Cristianas, con la ayudó de las traducciones que hicieran Francisco de Enzinas y Juan de Valdés. Antes de morir, Pérez de Pineda dejó todos sus bienes para sufragar los gastos de la impresión de la Biblia en castellano.Casiodoro de Reina (1520-1594)En 1569 se editó su versión de la Biblia entera. Esta destacadísima obra era la primera traducción al español de toda la Biblia. Por siglos se había contado con Biblias en latín, pero este era el idioma de los privilegiados. Reina creía que todo el mundo debía comprender las Escrituras, de modo que arriesgó la vida para conseguir su meta.Cipriano de Valera (1531-1602)La versión de Reina fue revisada por Cipriano de Valera en 1602. Este fue otro ex monje que escapó de la ira de la Inquisición en Sevilla. La traducción Reina-Valera de la Biblia, en su versión original y sus versiones revisadas, todavía es la que se usa más extensamente entre los hispanohablantes.Felipe Scío de San Miguel (1738-17960En 1592 se editó una nueva versión bíblica, conocida como Sixto-Clementina, bajo la supervisión del papa Clemente VIII. Esta edición, fue utilizada como base para realizar traducciones católicas a diversos idiomas, como las versiones españolas de Felipe Scío de San Miguel (1793) y Félix Torres Amat (1825).Dr. Ángel Herreros de Mora (1815-1876) & Dr. Henry Barrington Pratt (1832-1912)Lo que motivo esta revisión fue para actualizar la ortografía y "supuestamente" traer al mundo hispano el texto confiable de la biblia Reina-Valera en ortografía moderna.Sociedad Bíblica Británica (1909)En 1804 se fundó la Sociedad Bíblica Británica y Extranjera, con un sencillo objetivo fundamental, proporcionar a la gente Biblias económicas en su idioma nativo y "sin notas ni comentarios". Las versiones patrocinadas por la Sociedad Bíblica Británica y Extranjera se basaron con frecuencia en la Versión King James en inglés.Sociedad Bíblica Americana (1960)Entre las muchas sociedades bíblicas que se formaron desde 1804 están la Sociedad Bíblica Americana (1816), formada de sociedades locales que ya existían. La Sociedad Bíblica Americana informa que ahora el 98% de la población de la Tierra tiene acceso a ella.

We HAVE BEEN MADE FREE from sin! Jesus' death on the cross freed the saints from both the penalty and the power of sin. All sins have been paid, and by God's grace, all the power for victory has already been made available. We must learn to reckon it so, as God does, in order to walk in that freedom. But wait, I'm not that bad, am I? Operating in the swamp of the flesh is not just debauchery, drunkenness, or adultery; one can be carnal when doing household tasks, eating a meal, watching a game, at church, or anywhere doing anything! Learning to recognize the operation of "the law of sin" in the flesh and how it affects one's thoughts, emotions, attitudes, and behavior is necessary to live as a spiritual man, glorifying God and enjoying the benefits of "all spiritual blessings in the heavenlies."

A layman's study of the Book of James, the Apostles to the Jews in Jerusalem
Whether you are a pastor looking for a resource for a class for mature believers, a volunteer leading a small group study or are personally studying Scripture for your own spiritual growth, this resource is for you. This study is designed to give confidence to followers of Christ, and to be a resource which anyone can pick up and use to teach confidently and thoroughly through John's Gospel.God's Word is not a dusty collection of ancient books. It is alive and active; every bit as applicable to believers today as it was to the original readers. Not only is Scripture authoritative and relevant, it is a deep well of profound truth which should be returned to regularly. That is the foundational truth from which this inductive study operates. Asking questions of the text, we will paint a picture of how the events described in the Gospel of John actually unfolded, seeing and experiencing them through John's eyes as though we were witnessing Jesus' ministry firsthand. Using this approach in tandem with good theology and sound hermeneutics, Scripture comes alive and becomes inescapably relevant. Careful study of Scripture allows the reader to not only know about Jesus, but to actually know Jesus.Contained within this work is the actual biblical text of the entirety of John's Gospel (in the NIV translation), questions designed to prompt group discussion or personal reflection, and commentary framed through the lens of the discussion questions, making for an accessible and user-friendly resource that is relatable to people in all phases of their faith journey.

Querido lector:Soy consciente de que vamos a entrar en un tema muy controvertido, no solo en la iglesia de hoy, sino que este asunto se alarga y alcanza desde los comienzos mismos de la fe cristiana. Lo que vamos a abordar presenta muchas dificultades en el seno de la iglesia evangélica en general, especialmente en los movimientos carismáticos y pentecostales que se han venido produciendo desde principios del siglo veinte.
Most published books about Jesus detail His roles as a prophet, priest, and king. He fulfilled these roles when He sacrificed Himself and entered the presence of God the Father. The world has been so morally and spiritually bankrupt and dead that the need for a Savior cannot be emphasized enough. Thanks be to God that He gave us Jesus Christ! As King over all the earth, he will have judicial powers and responsibilities over the subjects in the forthcoming Millennial Kingdom. He will judge all nations of the world for their beliefs and ways of life during the Great Tribulation. He will sentence the condemned to everlasting punishment and welcome his sheep to His kingdom.Therefore, it becomes pertinent that we make this book prominent. The role of Jesus Christ is not only as savior and king but also as judge.

I wonder what you'll say when I'm gone. I wonder what my life amounts to now as I breathe your air. In the grand scheme of things, did my short years matter? Did I waste them trying to gain for myself by my own ambition? Was I too critical to have made a difference? Did I ever really grow into maturity as measured by the stature of Christ? Did my life bring unity or division? Did I spend too much time fighting my brothers and sisters? Was I adding to the noise when the community was divided?Here, from the undertaker's carriage, I question the purpose of it all. For the first time, my eyes are opened.-----------------------andrewpaulcannon.blogSlain in the Spirit is the result of a series of sermons through the book of Ephesians at Green Acres Baptist Church in Warner Robins, GA-reformatted to read like a book with more expository and doctrinal comments than the sermons had. To sum up the book in one sentence-God chose us unconditionally, so we choose one another unconditionally.
Today God is alive and well. Therefore, without a doubt, there is power in prayer. Through prayer it has given me the power to conquer this enemy called FEAR, and not to be easily moved. It is very difficult to please God without faith. God is real and does exist. He truly rewards those who earnestly seek him. For we must not worry about tomorrow. For God holds our tomorrow. Whatever way a trial starts, trust me, it shall not end that way. For the end of a matter is always better. Do you know who Jesus is? If not, I pray that after you finish reading my story it shall inspire you to search for him with all your heart.
This book is a life story about a woman who fell from grace and found her way back to the loving Father who never left her no matter how far she drifted away. It is written to encourage anyone who may feel their life is so messed up that they are beyond God's grace and forgiveness.
When unexpected events cause us to question what we have previously "known," do we stop and reexamine the foundation and content of our own beliefs and values? Do we seek to learn and separate "truth" and "facts" (i.e., reality) from the "knowledge" that we acquired simply by rote memorization or that we thought "felt right" -- what we wanted to be true. The most profound truth is acquired by correcting our mistakes or errors. This is especially relevant to the most crucial of life's concerns: our spiritual health and relationship with our Maker. At times, we need to be reminded of, reeducated in, or encouraged in the basic foundations of life itself.Come, take a journey through God's inspired message to mankind and experience what God has done and seen taking place over time. He welcomes and desires your accompanying presence, as well as your thoughts and questions, as you journey with Him through His story with His beloved mankind.
Do you want to be thoroughly equipped for everything that life throws your way?The Apostle Paul told his young friend, Timothy that, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly equipped for every good work." 2 Timothy 3:16-17Do you want the Word of Christ to dwell in you richly?Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom by teaching and admonishing one another in Psalms... Colossians 3:16How are Christians to let the Word of Christ dwell in them so that they may be throughly equipped to fave life with strength and joy?One exciting section of the Bible that deserves another look is God's songbook, the Psalms. Many of these songs, written by the warrior, David, tell it like it is, don't pull any punches, and are certainly not what most people would think of as polite "religion." But, nevertheless, God gave us these songs so that we could learn how to sing and pray like thoroughly equipped warriors in an often hostile and unsettled world.
