Jesus the Prophet by R. D. Kaylor Pdf

R. David Kaylor believes that Jesus' vision of a just society and his prophetic engagement with social, political, and economic conditions led to his execution by the Romans. Here, he presents Jesus' message of a just society based on Israel's covenant tradition. He shows the prophetic background and social content of Jesus' ethical teaching and demonstrates that the parables (especially those with economic and agricultural associations) critiqued the social conditions and called for a restructuring of community life. He provides evidence that Jesus' vision remains, offering criticism of the present and promise of a future.

The Wizard and the Prophet by Charles C. Mann Pdf

From the best-selling, award-winning author of 1491 and 1493--an incisive portrait of the two little-known twentieth-century scientists, Norman Borlaug and William Vogt, whose diametrically opposed views shaped our ideas about the environment, laying the groundwork for how people in the twenty-first century will choose to live in tomorrow's world. In forty years, Earth's population will reach ten billion. Can our world support that? What kind of world will it be? Those answering these questions generally fall into two deeply divided groups--Wizards and Prophets, as Charles Mann calls them in this balanced, authoritative, nonpolemical new book. The Prophets, he explains, follow William Vogt, a founding environmentalist who believed that in using more than our planet has to give, our prosperity will lead us to ruin. Cut back! was his mantra. Otherwise everyone will lose! The Wizards are the heirs of Norman Borlaug, whose research, in effect, wrangled the world in service to our species to produce modern high-yield crops that then saved millions from starvation. Innovate! was Borlaug's cry. Only in that way can everyone win! Mann delves into these diverging viewpoints to assess the four great challenges humanity faces--food, water, energy, climate change--grounding each in historical context and weighing the options for the future. With our civilization on the line, the author's insightful analysis is an essential addition to the urgent conversation about how our children will fare on an increasingly crowded Earth.

The Late Great Planet Earth by Hal Lindsey Pdf

The impact of The Late Great Planet Earth cannot be overstated. The New York Times called it the "no. 1 non-fiction bestseller of the decade." For Christians and non-Christians of the 1970s, Hal Lindsey's blockbuster served as a wake-up call on events soon to come and events already unfolding -- all leading up to the greatest event of all: the return of Jesus Christ. The years since have confirmed Lindsey's insights into what biblical prophecy says about the times we live in. Whether you're a church-going believer or someone who wouldn't darken the door of a Christian institution, the Bible has much to tell you about the imminent future of this planet. In the midst of an out-of-control generation, it reveals a grand design that's unfolding exactly according to plan. The rebirth of Israel. The threat of war in the Middle East. An increase in natural catastrophes. The revival of Satanism and witchcraft. These and other signs, foreseen by prophets from Moses to Jesus, portend the coming of an antichrist . . . of a war which will bring humanity to the brink of destruction . . . and of incredible deliverance for a desperate, dying planet.

The Earth Gods by Kahlil Gibran Pdf

“The Earth Gods” is a 1931 work by poet and philosopher Kahlil Gibran. Gibran Khalil Gibran (1883–1931) was a Lebanese-American poet, writer, and visual artist most famous for his book “The Prophet” (1923), which remains one of the best-selling and most-translated books ever written. His work dealt with a variety of themes including justice, science, free will, love, the soul, happiness, the body, death, etc.; and are characterised by an unmistakable use of symbolism and melancholic style. First published in the year of his death, “The Earth Gods” revolves around a discourse between three gods (First God, Second God, and Third God) who proceed to discuss a range of spiritual concepts. “The Earth Gods” is a classic example of Gibran's mystical prose that will not disappoint those who have read and enjoyed other works by this seminal author. This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

More Than a Prophet by Isaac Gross Pdf

"To this day the ministry of John the Baptist remains an enigma to many. Who was this peculiarly intense hermit of a prophet who laid the very principles of Christianity? Who was this mysterious fulfillment of the prophet Elijah, and what was his ministry really about? In this book we will consider the life, ministry, and influence of John whom the Son of God called "far more than a prophet." This is not simply a biography - for his life can be seen in glimpses through the four Gospels of scripture. Herein we will examine the earliest foundations of Christianity as laid by God's messenger: John the Baptist"--from product page on amazon.com.

I Saw a New Earth by Paul S. Minear Pdf

From the Preface: There are indeed few books in the Bible where the modern student does not need deft guidance if reading is to prove profitable. In the case of the Book of Revelation that need becomes absolutely essential. When the average student takes up this book, almost without exception the going is tough, the language baffling, the sense of profit minimal. This situation represents a curious reversal, for in earlier centuries no other part of Scripture so greatly intrigued the imagination of Christendom or so greatly fascinated its painters and musicians .... The book at hand is designed to restore the Apocalypse to its rightful place in Christian thinking. The title asserts a continuing conviction: John as a prophet actually saw a new earth. The ordinary ways of perceiving reality had been radically altered by his faith in Christ.... Even moderns., in their traffic with "the earth," have accessible a greater diversity of visions than they suppose. The ancient prophet may still have power to enable us to see a new earth. Such at least is the premise that prompted the publication of this book.

The Last Prophet's Book by Calvin Wilson Pdf

A prophet dreams of two other planets and writes his visions of these two opposite planets. Although he sees many things of these other peoples, God sees more. God sees below into the hearts of men. The prophet finally sees his visions become flesh as the three worlds come together to battle upon Earth. And in the smoke of the already ongoing World War III, a victor is found. Who shall emerge? So I arose and looked in the Crystal Sea and saw darkness. And the Lord said, "Unto you, man, do I now reveal the last book of history, showing you what has come from the beginning. In the beginning, I did create the Heaven and the Earth as My Word has been written, but among the heavens I created only two other inhabited worlds. Earth was not alone. One planet's name was Plenarius and the other Hamartia. I gave the inhabitants, My first man and woman on each planet, the chance to have a free will to do what they wanted. I wanted to see if they would follow Me willingly. In the first year, all three planets fell into sin."
