Описание: WINNER OF THE 2019 DUFF COOPER PRIZEA SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER'With emotional and psychological insight, Barton unlocks this sleeping giant of our culture. In the process, he has produced a masterpiece.' Sunday TimesThe Bible is the central book of Western culture. For the two faiths which hold it sacred, it is the bedrock of their religion, a singular authority on what to believe and how to live.
For non-believers too, it has a commanding status: it is one of the great works of world literature, woven to an unparalleled degree into our language and thought. This book tells the story of the Bible, explaining how it came to be constructed and how it has been understood, from its remote beginnings down to the present. John Barton describes how the narratives, laws, proverbs, prophecies, poems and letters which comprise the Bible were written and when, what we know - and what we cannot know - about their authors and what they might have meant, as well as how these extraordinarily disparate writings relate to each other.
His incisive readings shed new light on even the most familiar passages, exposing not only the sources and traditions behind them, but also the busy hands of the scribes and editors who assembled and reshaped them. Untangling the process by which some texts which were regarded as holy, became canonical and were included, and others didn't, Barton demonstrates that the Bible is not the fixed text it is often perceived to be, but the result of a long and intriguing evolution. Tracing its dissemination, translation and interpretation in Judaism and Christianity from Antiquity to the rise of modern biblical scholarship, Barton elucidates how meaning has both been drawn from the Bible and imposed upon it.
Part of the book's originality is to illuminate the gap between religion and scripture, the ways in which neither maps exactly onto the other, and how religious thinkers from Augustine to Luther and Spinoza have reckoned with this. Barton shows that if we are to regard the Bible as 'authoritative', it cannot be as believers have so often done in the past.

Описание:
Faith, along with Hope and Love, forms one of the three core motivational characteristics that God desires to embed in the centre of our being. The purpose is that they would characterise who we are and motivate what we do. But what exactly is faith, and what role does God want it to play in our lives?
Faith goes beyond mere belief, even demons know about the one true God. Faith runs deeper and takes you further, constantly affirming to your soul - God is Greater Faith is the foundation of these.

Описание: The Caucasus as meeting point of East and West, Europe and Asia, Christiandom and Islam. The cultures include Greek, Slavic, Arabic, Turkish and Persian, just to name a few. It has served as realm of legend, myth, of wonderment and exotica. Yet at the same time the Caucasus can serve as mirror to the outside, at a site where one can trace the processes that have shaped the broader world.
Описание: Because of God's heart dream, He has given Himself wholeheartedly and completely to Man in covenant integrity God did not just give Himself to us in some kind of reluctant religious way or in just some kind of inferior, meaningless, religious philosophy No. He gave His heart to us: His commitment, in covenant integrity He gave Himself to us: His devotion, His care, His whole heart, His everything, in covenant commitment, in covenant integrity as if He could not be trusted. And so in the New Covenant, as opposed to the Old Covenant which was between God and Man, in the New Covenant we discover that the second party is now God Himself. He swore by Himself, by His own being, incarnate in a human body Being our original blueprint and now also one with the human race in the incarnation, this Jesus forever became our inseparable representative. Deity took upon Himself humanity to become our inseparable surety. He became the surety of our eternal union with God Jesus, through the incarnation and then the resurrection, thus became the security of our union with God for all eternity. Isn't that wonderful? This is book number four in the series: Helping the believer to fully appropriate truth There are 6 books in this series: 1. Faith's Vision 2. Faith Inspired Obedience 3. God's Unfailing Integrity 4. Appropriating Truth 5. Multiply what you have in God 6. Faith's fuel
