Описание: The Imitation of Christ - Thomas Kempis - Translated by Rev. William Benham - The Imitation of Christ is a Christian devotional book. It was first composed in Latin ca. 1418-1427. It is a handbook for spiritual life arising from the Devotio Moderna movement, of which Kempis was a member. The Imitation is perhaps the most widely read devotional work next to the Bible, and is regarded as a devotional and religious classic. Its popularity was immediate, and it was printed 745 times before 1650. Apart from the Bible, no book has been translated into more languages than the Imitation of Christ. The treatise "Of the Imitation of Christ" appears to have been originally written in Latin early in the fifteenth century. Its exact date and its authorship are still a matter of debate. Manuscripts of the Latin version survive in considerable numbers all over Western Europe, and they, with the vast list of translations and of printed editions, testify to its almost unparalleled popularity. One scribe attributes it to St. Bernard of Clairvaux; but the fact that it contains a quotation from St. Francis of Assisi, who was born thirty years after the death of St. Bernard, disposes of this theory. In England there exist many manuscripts of the first three books, called "Musica Ecclesiastica," frequently ascribed to the English mystic Walter Hilton. But Hilton seems to have died in 1395, and there is no evidence of the existence of the work before 1400. Many manuscripts scattered throughout Europe ascribe the book to Jean le Charlier de Gerson, the great Chancellor of the University of Paris, who was a leading figure in the Church in the earlier part of the fifteenth century. The most probable author, however, especially when the internal evidence is considered, is Thomas Haemmerlein, known also as Thomas a Kempis, from his native town of Kempen, near the Rhine, about forty miles north of Cologne. Haemmerlein, who was born in 1379 or 1380, was a member of the order of the Brothers of Common Life, and spent the last seventy years of his life at Mount St. Agnes, a monastery of Augustinian canons in the diocese of Utrecht. Here he died on July 26, 1471, after an uneventful life spent in copying manuscripts, reading, and composing, and in the peaceful routine of monastic piety.
Описание: God is infinitely excellent, and that excellence is most profoundly displayed in the person and saving work of Jesus Christ. The heart of Edwards' theology radiates the glory of God as displayed in Christ's saving of unworthy sinners through perfect obedience to God's unchanging rule of righteousness. The whole of Edwards' theology stands on the beauty and redemptive work of Christ as revealing and communicating the marvelous perfections of the Trinity. Salvation of a single soul apart from perfect conformity to God's rule of righteousness would render God unrighteous and abolish His ultimate purpose to display and communicate His glory. Indeed, God could not be God. Revisionist interpretations of Edwards' soteriology as inclusive or Catholic, therefore, are untenable without an overthrow and rewrite of the entirety of Edwards' theology.Chapter One examines the ultimate Trinitarian purpose to display and communicate His glory through the Father's gift of a bride for His Son, and the Son's purchase of His bride by His perfect obedience to God's rule of righteousness. Indeed, all of creation serves as the stage of God's purpose and plan in Christ, leading to the ultimate goal of the saints' happiness in heaven as they enjoy the infinite blessings of Christ's exaltation and glory.Chapter Two probes the pre-temporal Trinitarian and covenantal foundation of Christ's obedience, highlighting the Father's love in His purpose to save a people, and the Son's love in freely undertaking to accomplish it. Initiated by the Father, and mutually accepted by Christ and the Father, the terms of the Covenant of Redemption provide for the purchase of Christ's bride without injury to God's perfections, most notably His righteous justice. And as Christ voluntarily accepted the terms of the covenant, the entirety of Christ's saving work earned infinite merit for those He represented and purchased. Chapter Three examines the command to Adam as representative of God's unchanging rule of righteousness that requires perfect obedience for the obtaining of eternal life. All of God's commands are comprehended in this one great and unchanging rule of righteousness, as it reflects the very character of God. Chapter Four probes the absolute need for Christ's perfect obedience in light of Adam's sin as the representative of mankind, the immutability of God's righteousness and law despite Adam's sin, the infinite guilt of sin and the need of an infinite remedy, God's requirement of a perfect positive righteousness and exclusion of an imperfect righteousness for justification, Christ's perfect satisfaction of God's unalterable rule of righteousness, and God's nature as a righteous judge to uphold eternally His rule of perfect righteousness. Considered apart from Christ, the best of our works are sinful and unable to satisfy God's requirement of righteousness. And as a righteous judge, God can never justify an imperfect righteousness. Chapter Five examines the basis and infinite extent of the merit Christ earned by His obedience, the obedience comprising the righteousness by which sinners are justified, the free act of Christ giving His life as His greatest meritorious act, the propitiatory and meritorious nature of all of Christ's incarnate acts, and the rewards earned on behalf of the elect. In these, Christ accomplished God's ultimate purpose to display and communicate His glory, consummated in heaven in the marriage of Christ to His bride, to the enjoyment of God's glory forever.

Описание:
Bringing Christ Back is a priceless and practical theology desperately needed by the modern church to drag it out of its doldrums-far too many of its "average" believers are finding no release from agonizing chains of sin. Its knife-edged message is that the powerful presence of Christ seems to be withdrawn from the church as crucial truths about our Lord are reduced to common platitudes. When Christ is brought back as the center of faith in fact, not just in theory, believers will experience his deliverance from sin through the power of the Holy Spirit.
The church and its pastors have been charged by God to lay open the doctrines of Scripture so as to change lives, and "Pastor B" has been used by God over the years like few others to help countless believers around the world. He has been my lifelong friend and mentor, and I shudder to think what my life might have missed had I not learned from this forceful yet humble teacher and pursuer of God. The reader of this book will be stirred to a freshened godliness; groups of believers will find benefit in studying its pages together. In these days of intense spiritual warfare, let the church awaken to "bring Christ back" to the heart of our faith -David S. Macomber (formerly Field Director, World Venture/Philippines)

Описание:
Celebrating Christ is presented through a collection of creative, poetic, and lyrical verses. The creation of Celebrating Christ is the result of a long road to my restoration. Although, I knew I had been saved in Christ after truly turning my face toward him, I felt incomplete because of the hold that negative impacts of my past behaviors had on my life. Along the way, God empowered me to meet the challenges I faced. Through praying, meditating, and journaling, I became grounded in faith as I labored through each obstacle to become a better and more responsible and productive husband, father, and person. For many years, I labored, and I journaled prayers, meditations, and songs, writing Christ and strength into my heart. It took many years for me to battle my way back to fulfilling a victorious life. Looking back, the true joy of this journey is that even though I was not perfect, Jesus was with me and carrying me. He carried me through all my struggles. When I graduated college in 2016, that joy gave birth to Celebrating Christ for my restoration and sense of dignity.
In Inka Bodies and the Body of Christ Carolyn Dean investigates the multiple meanings of the Roman Catholic feast of Corpus Christi as it was performed in the Andean city of Cuzco after the Spanish conquest. By concentrating on the era’s paintings and its historical archives, Dean explores how the festival celebrated the victory of the Christian God over sin and death, the triumph of Christian orthodoxy over the imperial Inka patron (the Sun), and Spain’s conquest of Peruvian society. As Dean clearly illustrates, the central rite of the festival—the taking of the Eucharist—symbolized both the acceptance of Christ and the power of the colonizers over the colonized. The most remarkable of Andean celebrants were those who appeared costumed as the vanquished Inka kings of Peru’s pagan past. Despite the subjugation of the indigenous population, Dean shows how these and other Andean nobles used the occasion of Corpus Christi as an opportunity to construct new identities through tinkuy, a native term used to describe the conjoining of opposites. By mediating the chasms between the Andean region and Europe, pagans and Christians, and the past and the present, these Andean elites negotiated a new sense of themselves. Dean moves beyond the colonial period to examine how these hybrid forms of Inka identity are still evident in the festive life of modern Cuzco. Inka Bodies and the Body of Christ offers the first in-depth analysis of the culture and paintings of colonial Cuzco. This volume will be welcomed by historians of Peruvian culture, art, and politics. It will also interest those engaged in performance studies, religion, and postcolonial and Latin American studies.

After over three decades of pastoral and missionary experience, author and pastor Dr. Cliff Boone is no longer surprised to hear certain questions and concerns:
How can I tell if my temptation has a demonic element or is only because of my sinful self? I know that we are told to resist the devil, but how do I do that? How much influence can Satan have over a Christian? Is there a way I can protect myself and my children? Are my weird and frightening dreams because of evil spirits? How do I recognize when I'm being attacked by the evil one? This topic makes me afraid. Why can't I just ignore it?
This book gives the answers to these questions and more. Dr. Boone explains what it means to resist the devil and why it is important to do so. Rather than be afraid and defeated we can be equipped to experience Christ's victory over the evil one.
