When you install fear, guild and punishment by eternal torture as the basis of society, then the psychological make up of most people get distorted and life in general tends towards structural un-happyness. However, the doctrine of eternal punishment for unbelievers, executed in a fiery Hell and presided over by a Devil, has been the mainspring and driving force of Christianity. Armed with that belief, the church launched herself upon the Roman Empire, destroyed the pagan religions, extinguished pagan culture, overthrew classical civilization, and pushed the world into the Dark Ages. She filled the world with religious hate, fanaticism, intolerance of science and reason and even established the Inquisition. The most progressive and independent thinking men and women of society were persecuted, just because they resisted the Christian doctrines of fear, damnation, guild and blind obedience. We saw its anticlimax in the Burning Times.
Apart from this core message of his book, which has not lost anything of its actuality, Graves also provides a lot of historical data. Giving us insight in the origins of the many false assumptions the Christian faith build its' empire on. He shows that, mythologically, the God of the Old Testament and the Devil of the New Testament were "originally twin brothers known by the same titles," and that this God and this Devil were Chaldean sun-gods. The origins of the Devil, eternal punishment, Heaven and Hell are discussed, as well as evil itself within this context.
Описание: The Bible says many things about unity and I believe that the greatest weapon that the Church has to defeat the devil is unity. However on the other hand the greatest tool the devil has to defeat the Church is to create division. This understanding did not come from my knowledge, but by revelation of the Holy Spirit. The purpose of this book is to create an awareness through the truth that is in the Bible, to help the Church and the body of Christ be victorious not only corporately but individually as well. I believe that many of our rights as Christians have been taken away from us, for example prayer in the schools, the ten commandments on the wall of public buildings, the murder of unborn children and the right to call sin exactly what it is sin from the pulpit. Because special interest groups have come together as one, being united with no division and are being successful with accomplishing their goals. It is my hope that Christians will realize that if we come together as one body, set aside denominational differences, doctrine differences, ethnic differences and cultural differences that we can control what happens in governments, reinstate morals and values into our societies, communities and families and bring back the Godly principals that made America great and other cultures around the world. We are under the greatest attack that we have been under as Christians, our rights and freedoms to worship our God is in jeopardy. If there was ever a time in history to come together as one body it is now.

Описание: Racism and white supremacy have survived in the United States for a very long time because from the onset, it was based on sound `engineering.` The book contends that racism is not a belief, practice, or ideology that flared up by accident or through the spur of the moment. Rather, it followed sound engineering stages like planning, design, and construction. Racism was designed to serve a domineering purpose for white people and, therefore, there was a lot of planning that eventually led to its design and construction. Because the architects had a vision of its permanency, they chose the most durable materials for its construction. Metaphorically, they used mortar, bricks, and steel beams. These durable materials, among others, include religion, science, government (including the Supreme Court), the constitution and laws, brutality, and social media. As the centuries rolled by, succeeding architects of this design and construction have done a superb job in maintenance and modifications to elude stumbling blocks. Based on the times and prevailing winds, the racism construct has undergone mutations to evade capture and destruction - even to this day. Like a car, the engineering and engineers have evolved, the models and make are changing, but the underlying engineering remains intact. Today, the overt, brash, and brutal racism has generally ceded to an equally destructive, calculated, politically-correct, less pompous, highly sophisticated, and veiled racism. The book dissects this durable foundational construct and proffers recommendations that will systematically minimize its intensity.
Описание: Jewish anthropological beliefs during the Hellenistic-Roman period are an important but previously neglected area of biblical exegesis and Jewish studies. Thus, the volume provides an exemplary foundation for further research on ancient Jewish anthropology.
Описание: Die anthropologischen Konzeptionen im Judentum der hellenistisch-romischen Zeit bilden ein wichtiges Bindeglied zwischen den entsprechenden Traditionen der alteren Texte der Hebraischen Bibel und denjenigen des Neuen Testaments sowie der rabbinischen Uberlieferungen. Sie als einen konstitutiven Faktor religioser Identitat wahrzunehmen, ist fur die religionsgeschichtliche Erforschung des antiken Judentums wie auch fur eine an Traditionslinien orientierte Biblische Theologie unabdingbar. Trotz zahlreicher Forschungen zur Antropologie der biblischen Uberlieferungen im Alten und Neuen Testament bzw. zu den anthropologischen Konzepten ihrer Nachbarkulturen stellt eine Aufarbeitung dieser Thematik aber ein Forschungsdesiderat dar. Vor diesem Hintergrund versammelt dieser Band 20 einschlagige Aufsatze international bekannter Wissenschaftler zum Thema „Sunde und Tod“ . Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf der Einbeziehung des Materials aus den benachbarten Kulturen, wobei auch agyptische Quellen zu Wort kommen. Der Band bietet so exemplarisch wichtige Grundlagen fur die weitere Erforschung der antik-judischen Anthropologie in ihren kulturellen Bezugen.

Описание: Kant was engaged with the subject of theodicy throughout his career and not merely in his 1791 treatise explicitly devoted to the subject. George Huxford traces Kant`s thought on theodicy throughout his career to show not only the continuity of Kant`s consideration but also his philosophical development on the subject.
This book deals with questions that have plagued many who have tried to deal with the problem of theodicy; that is: why a good God would allow evil to enter the world. Why did an omnipotent and good God allow the fall of Adam and Eve to occur? Why did God put the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil in the Garden of Eden? Why did Job suffer? Why does God allow gratuitous evil to occur? Why do good people suffer? If you follow the arguments of this book, you will find answers to these questions and more, that make sense. The answers to these questions are found in the Word of God, if we only have eyes to see. Karl Irving is a father of four children, and has pastored a small independent church in Canberra for the past ten years.

Описание:
Karen Kilby explores the doctrine of the Trinity and issues of evil, suffering and sin. She offers a critique of the lack of respect for mystery found in the most popular Trinitarian thinking of our time. Kilby gives an apophatic reading of Aquinas on the Trinity and offers a distinct next step in the sequence on the Trinity - the appeal of social doctrines of the Trinity lies principally in their ecclesial and political relevance. She engages with Miroslav Volf's famous 'The Trinity is our social program' essay and addresses the question of what an alternative politics of an apophatic theology of the Trinity might look like.
The essays explore the question of theodicy and argue that evil poses a question to Christians and Christian's theology which can neither be answered nor dismissed. Kilby argues that Christians must live with this mystery, this lack of resolution, rather than trying to diminish the gravity of evil, or allowing evil to dictate their conception of God's goodness or power. By offering a critical reading of Hans Urs von Balthasar and Julian of Norwich she explores the question of whether Christianity can avoid giving a positive valuation to suffering, and concludes the two represent two different strands within the Christian tradition in relation to thought on suffering.
The strongest challenge to Christianity is the problem of evil, especially when trying to reconcile a loving God with: horrors against children the suffering of innocent animals suffering in hell suffering in ignorance of the truth because God spoke to one very small nation, but was silent to the majority of the world presumably condemned without a chance of hearing the gospel.
As an atheist, Daniel Parks accepted a challenge to seriously examine the credibility of Christianity. He applied his investigative skills and intellect to study the arguments and evidence for atheism and for Christianity. He expected to affirm his atheism, but one by one, his studies kept pointing to Christianity as true, with the one exception being the problem of evil. None of the Christian explanations completely addressed the problem. But he saw that certain elements of the most promising ones fit coherently into a theodicy that persuasively solves the problem of evil in its entirety.
Daniel Parks is a paralegal with over seventeen years of experience in personal injury law. He teaches at his church, and, in a variety of social media groups, discusses Christian and anti-Christian arguments and evidence with people of any worldview and belief.
