Concise, Scripture-Centered Guide Answers Popular Questions about Gender and Church LeadershipMany new believers have questions about what it means to live as a Christian in the context of a local church, and pastors are looking for resources to pass along to their congregations to help them think biblically about the Christian life. Church Questions is a series by 9Marks that seeks to provide Christians with sound and accessible biblical teaching by answering common questions about church life. Each booklet offers biblical answers and practical applications with the goal of nurturing healthy church practice and commitment.In this Church Questions booklet, Greg Gilbert answers the question Can women be pastors? Gilbert explains why God reserved the office of pastor and elder exclusively for men by examining the structures of authority God established from the very beginning. Focusing on texts in Genesis 1-3 and 1 Timothy 2, Gilbert makes a case for why God's original design for church leadership is not arbitrary, but part of his good and beautiful plan.

Complementary medicine is a challenge for modern medical care, which is supposed to be based on science and evidence, but also forms part of a pluralistic society that attaches great importance to patient autonomy. There are currently several, partly contradictory trends. On the one hand, complementary medicine is becoming increasingly academicized, for example, by the establishment of professorships for "complementary medicine". On the other hand, public and scientific pressure on legislators has increased to exclude measures that are often considered to be part of complementary medicine. One example is the exclusion of homeopathy from reimbursement by publicly funded health insurance companies.This volume encompasses multidisciplinary perspectives on the meaning and function of complementary medicine, with a special emphasis on contributions from France and Germany. In addition to systematic conceptual, historical and empirical analyses, the book provides case studies and contributions on practical questions. Alexander Kremling, Charlotte Buch and Jan Schildmann are researchers at the Institute for History and Ethics of Medicine at Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg.

In this book, I will seek to first lay out, in Section 1, a comprehen-sive examination of the scriptural worldview of the kingdom and how that calls us to approach our discipleship and our place in the world. In Section 2, I will consider the role of nations and the politics of the nations and where the kingdom of God stands in those domains. Fi-nally, in Section 3, I will look at the more practical elements of how a Christian community should navigate through the murky waters of worldly politics and specific issues. We will work hard to ensure that Jesus is our guide throughout the journey.The third section will take the identity that I have attempted to describe and show it lived out in the real world. The first section is like running on a paved trail. The footing is secure and stable. As we move into the second section, we move to a dirt trail cut through a for-est. The route is a bit more winding and less sure than the pavement, but still quite secure and straightforward. By Section 3 we are running through a swamp. The path is not set and the ground is often unsure, but we move forward trying to find our way as best we can. Because the third section is an attempt to apply principles in concrete situa-tions, there is more room to disagree. Each topic broached in Section 3 could be its own book. I have attempted to introduce an approach to each subject without being so brief that it is unhelpful or counterpro-ductive. My goal in that section is not to provide the absolute answer but to show how we might work our way through difficult and thorny topics with a kingdom-minded approach.

"The mystery of the human person becomes truly clear only in the mystery of the Incarnate Word." Taken from the Constitution Gaudium et Spes of the Second Vatican Council, this phrase is the foundation of Christian anthropology, an area very often neglected in theological studies. Mgr Jean Laffitte offers us a wealth of reflections on a wide range of themes including the family, love, life, suffering and death, the moral conscience, society, Christian action, forgiveness and the Heart of Christ. What is striking on reading these pages is the great unity that emerges, making this work a decisive contribution to Christian reflection on the nature of the human person, their place in society, aspirations and choices, origin and destiny. The light of Revelation illuminates every dimension of existence and of those fundamental human experiences so often evoked by Pope St John Paul II. At a time when, one by one, the pillars that support the complex nature of the human being are crumbling, and in particular when the bonds of paternity and sonship are being eroded, the author traces the contours of a true filial anthropology-the expression is destined to become a milestone-the only one capable of giving human persons an understanding of the meaning of their life, as well as an answer to the questions and concerns in their mind and heart. The eternal Son reveals to us the secret of our created being: we are sons in the Son, chosen and loved.

The believer's responsibility in sanctification and spiritual ministry. There are things that God must do, and man must not attempt to do them.

This audiobook, "Sanctified and Consecrated for Spiritual Ministry" presents the responsibility of the believer to do that which he must do for his sanctification, consecration, and spiritual ministry. We are fully persuaded that in the light of the cross, the resurrection, and the out-poured Holy Spirit, the willing believer can:live a sin-free life,be wholly consecrated to the Lord, andserve the Lord to the satisfaction of the Father.Listen to this audiobook, and may the Lord of the harvest use it to transform you into someone who is sanctified and consecrated for spiritual ministry.

When we become followers of Jesus, we are transformed into new creations. This transformational process is one of the most significant aspects of our identity in Christ. It is through this transformation that we are able to shed our old selves and embrace our new selves. Ultimately, being a new creation means that we are no longer defined by our past or our mistakes. We have been given a new identity and a new purpose in Christ. As we continue to grow in our understanding of what it means to be a new creation, let us embrace the transformation that Christ is working in us and seek to live out our new identity in Him.

Life-changing thoughts on salvation and soul-winning.God's perfect will is that every human being should come to repentance. There is no human being on earth that the Lord does not want to save. Because God wants every human being to repent, it is God's perfect will for me to do everything to ensure that every human being repents. Every sinner can be saved if three things are done for him:The first thing is to pray for him,The second one is to fast, andThe third is to present the gospel to him.If these three things are done in the power of the Holy Spirit for every sinner, every one of them would be saved.These fundamental truths came out clearly as Professor Fomum ministered the gospel of Christ across the globe between 2003 and 2007.May the Lord make of you a result-oriented minister of the gospel through this book.
