The Divine Order, the Human Order, and the Order of Nature by Eric Watkins Pdf

This volume contains ten new essays focused on the exploration and articulation of a narrative that considers the notion of order within medieval and modern philosophy—its various kinds (natural, moral, divine, and human), the different ways in which each is conceived, and the diverse dependency relations that are thought to obtain among them. Descartes, with the help of others, brought about an important shift in what was understood by the order of nature by placing laws of nature at the foundation of his natural philosophy. Vigorous debate then ensued about the proper formulation of the laws of nature and the moral law, about whether such laws can be justified, and if so, how-through some aspect of the divine order or through human beings-and about what consequences these laws have for human beings and the moral and divine orders. That is, philosophers of the period were thinking through what the order of nature consists in and how to understand its relations to the divine, human, and moral orders. No two major philosophers in the modern period took exactly the same stance on these issues, but these issues are clearly central to their thought. The Divine Order, the Human Order, and the Order of Nature is devoted to investigating their positions from a vantage point that has the potential to combine metaphysical, epistemological, scientific, and moral considerations into a single narrative.

That Divine Order by Peter Vergo Pdf

Ever since antiquity, philosophers have pointed to the supposed 'divine' character of music, and following Pythagoras's discovery of the mathematical basis of the musical scale, have posited a link between the mathematical order of music, the physical order of the universe and the moral order of human society. Both practicing artists and moralists came to believe that, by demonstrating an analogy with music, they could claim a dignity and value for their art--whether painting, architecture or sculpture--that it might otherwise lack. Why was this so? What was the point of such analogies? What advantages was music believed to enjoy, by comparison with the visual arts? Artists and critics frequently cited music as a manifestation of God-given order to which visual arts should aspire. But on what evidence was this belief in the inherently systematic character of music based; and in practical terms, how might visual art seek to emulate any such divine order or system? In what way might Gothic cathedrals have been based on systems of harmonic proportion? How did Poussin's search for a compositional principle derived from antique 'modes' in music resemble, or differ from, Palladio's attempts to embody musical 'harmonies' in architecture? And how did each artist conceive of the sense and value of such analogies? Systematic answers to such questions have hitherto been lacking, and, for the first time, the author makes direct and detailed comparisons between musical and pictorial practices in the long period covered by the book. He also provides a broad analysis of changes in the character of the analogies drawn at different times, using in his analyses critical and philosophical sources as well as evidence about artistic and musical practice. "That divine order" will be of interest to art historians and musicologists, to practicing artists and musicians and to students of cultural history.

All in Divine Order by Monica Young Andrews Pdf

Have you ever had something happen to you (good or bad) and realized later that it tied into something else that was truly amazing in your life so much so that it made you stop and say "WOW"! Have you ever read or heard the scripture in the bible from Romans 8:28? Well I have, and especially after the "bad" things, found myself saying many times...Now that's divine order! All In Divine Order: Nothing Happens By Accident! shares experiences such as my parents divorcing when I was 8 years old, growing up with a sister with sickle cell anemia and water on the brain, a father diagnosed and dying of cancer 9 years after told he had 6 months to live, car accidents that I should not have walked away from, getting married after 4 months, having 5 hip replacements even though we only have 2 hips and much more! I further share how God has worked even in the worse scenarios growing my faith beyond most. It is my hope and prayer that after reading this, you look at your life experiences in a way that grow your faith and move you into your purpose where you find yourself saying, "WOW! That's All In Divine Order: Nothing Happens By Accident!" Chaplain Dr. Monica Young Andrews, founder of the Divine Order movement and Spirnancial Partners in Shine, grew up the oldest of three in the District of Columbia. She attended private school and is a proud Hampton University alumnus. Although her background is Computer Science, she's been in the financial arena for decades and has always been a practicing advocate of the "application of knowledge". At age 15, receiving her first paycheck, she quickly learned about "Uncle Sam", but didn't understand why he was taking so much out of her check since she really didn't even have an uncle named Sam! Since 2010 she has fervently worked to equip thousands with the knowledge, tools and resources to create everlasting wealth for true legacy building. Dr. Andrews determined a long time ago if she can ask 10 people a question where 8-10 give the same response, then she does not necessarily need to retain that information. What she needs to know is what those 8-10 don't know, thus has spent decades learning and practicing what the average don't.

Lessons from the Source by Jack Armstrong Pdf

Thirty years ago, Jack Armstrong began receiving a series of simple and practical life lessons from an unknown inner source. While he did not understand where they were coming from or why they were being presented to him, it was clear the teachings were unlike any he had encountered during his own spiritual quest. He continued recording the lessons but kept them a secret from family and friends, fearing they might question his sanity. Years passed before he gathered the courage to share these writings, but when he did, the response was overwhelming. Lessons from the Source is a collection of those writings that offers a new perspective on spiritual issues most of us grapple with regularly. This spiritual guidebook discusses the nature of life's journey, the challenges we confront, ways to overcome the challenges, and opportunities to make the journey more enjoyable. Like the Conversations with God books and A Course in Miracles, the insights found in Lessons from the Source reflect a source of wisdom that explains the deeper truths of our lives. It offers down-to-earth, yet profound and powerful, lessons about life and spirituality, posing a refreshing perspective about our life on earth.
