The Glory of God in the Face of Jesus Christ by David K. Bernard Pdf
There is now a substantial scholarly consensus for the emergence of a high or divine Christology very early and from a Jewish context, but the questions of "how" and "why" need further study. Within the framework of traditional Jewish monotheism, Paul and other early Christians used the language of deity to describe Jesus. To investigate their view of Jesus, the author examines Paul's discourse in 2 Cor 3:16–4:6, employing insights from rhetorical criticism and Oneness Pentecostal Christology. He explains how early Christians proclaimed the deity of Jesus within their monotheistic Jewish context. He then identifies socio-rhetorical reasons for and practical consequences of the monotheistic deification of Jesus.
Reading the Bible Supernaturally by John Piper Pdf
The Bible reveals glorious things. And yet we often miss its power because we read it the same way we read any other book. In Reading the Bible Supernaturally, best-selling author John Piper teaches us how to read the Bible in light of its divine author. In doing so, he highlights the Bible's unique ability to reveal God to humanity in a way that informs our minds, transforms our hearts, and ignites our love. With insights into the biblical text drawn from decades of experience studying, preaching, and teaching Scripture, Piper helps us experience the transformative power of God's Word—a power that extends beyond the mere words on the page. Ultimately, Piper shows us that in the seemingly ordinary act of reading the Bible, something supernatural happens: we encounter the living God.
DISCOVER AFRESH THE BIBLICAL JESUS!Jesus Christ embodies God's glory and fullness. More than that, he is the only perfect man who has ever lived. But whereas his perfection is often taken for granted and regarded as a given, on the contrary it is a most stupendous achievement unparalleled in salvation history, for it was as a true man and not the trinitarian "God-man" that Jesus became perfect through suffering, obedience, and God's indwelling. He was consequently exalted to God's right hand as His supreme plenipotentiary, and given all authority in heaven and on earth. Hence the subtitle of the book, "The Glory of God in the Face of Jesus Christ" (2Cor.4:6). This book is exegetical yet also devotional and inspirational.ALSO DISCUSSED: - Yahweh the only true God- The historical roots of trinitarianism- Jesus of the Bible versus Jesus of trinitarianism- The four pillars of trinitarianism (John 1, Colossians 1, Hebrews 1, Revelation 1)- Jesus as the "form of God" in Philippians 2- The name above all names given to Jesus- Jesus' perfection as a model and inspiration to God's people- God's glory manifested in Jesus Christ, the perfect image of God.

God has provided a way for all people, not just scholars, to know that the Bible is the Word of God. John Piper has devoted his life to showing us that the glory of God is object of the soul’s happiness. Now, his burden in this book is to demonstrate that this same glory is the ground of the mind’s certainty. God’s peculiar glory shines through his Word. The Spirit of God enlightens the eyes of our hearts. And in one self-authenticating sight, our minds are sure and our hearts are satisfied. Justified certainty and solid joy meet in the peculiar glory of God.
Humans are hardwired for awe. Our hearts are always captured by something—that’s how God made us. But sin threatens to distract us from the glory of our Creator. All too often, we stand in awe of everything but God. Uncovering the lies we believe about all the earthly things that promise us peace, life, and contentment, Paul Tripp redirects our gaze to God’s awe-inducing glory—showing how such a vision has the potential to impact our every thought, word, and deed.

After many happy years as a husband, father and pastor, Mike Wilkins caught "a nasty case of terminal cancer"--which, of course, changed everything. His new role, as he perceived it, was to practice what he had been preaching for decades. "These years have not been horrible," he writes. "On the contrary, for me, and my magnificent wife, this experience has been loaded with the peace of God, and the joy of the Lord is our strength." GLORY IN THE FACE explains what Wilkins learned by experience about "the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." ENDORSEMENTS "With wit, humour, intelligence and wisdom, Wilkins shares his deep love for God with a poignancy that comes from a life lived earnestly to the glory of God. He does this with an illuminating nod to other spiritual thinkers who have helped him on this journey. Whether in joy or grief, contentedness or suffering, Wilkins' words remind us that God's glory permeates our broken world with intimations of hope for the restored one. In seeking God's face, we face nothing, not even death, alone. And in the seeking, nothing, not even death, is in vain." Dr. Carolyn Weber is an award-winning author, speaker and professor. Her books include Surprised by Oxford (HarperCollins) and Holy is the Day (IVP). "Finding the strength to face anything"! What qualifies someone to write a book that accomplishes such a formidable objective? For starters, a command of the English language so that the reading itself would be a pleasure. Secondly, a well developed, truly biblical theology since the source of the strength is God himself. Thirdly, wisdom to apply the knowledge of God's character and ways to the point where the proverbial rubber meets the road in the life of the reader. Fourthly and perhaps most importantly, finding that very strength to handle prolonged personal suffering without loss of faith and with grace. In my friend Mike Wilkins, these four strands have converged to produce the book that you now hold in your hands. It will remain one of my most treasured possessions, celebrating as it does, a blessed friendship that has lasted 33 years at the time of writing." Rev. Sunder Krishnan served as the Preaching Pastor of Rexdale Alliance Church (in Toronto), from 1980-2016, and was its Senior Pastor since 1996. He is the author of several books, including The Conquest of Inner Space: Finding Peace in a Chaotic World, and Hijacked by Glory: From the Pew to the Nations.138 "For more than four decades, Mike Wilkins has blessed many with his faithful, creative, engaging, and practical expositions of Scripture. His challenging and inspiring reflections in this book are no exception. Light-heartedly interspersing poignant musings on his own life (and his recent "fall from health") with skilled and masterful meditations on Scripture, Wilkins insightfully probes the deep theological soils of one of the apostle Paul's richest letters (2 Corinthians)." Dr. Bruce W. Longenecker is Professor of Early Christianity and the Melton Chair of Religion at Baylor University (Texas). He is the author of a number of books, including The Lost Letters of Pergamum (Baker Academic) and The Cross before Constantine: The Early Life of a Christian Symbol (Fortress Press).
"The soul is lifted up by the contemplation of the glory of God and of his only begotten Son," writes R. C. Sproul. "It is Christ in his glory who is the object of our worship and adoration. As Christians we join the communion of saints and the host of heaven in lifting up praise and honor to him." During his earthly life and ministry, Jesus experienced humiliation and suffering. "His humanity served as a veil that concealed the splendor of his deity," Sproul continues. "Yet there were moments when his glory shone through." These moments become the focus of The Glory of Christ. From the angels' revelation of Jesus' glory to the shepherds outside Bethlehem, to Jesus' life-changing revelation of his glory to Paul on the Damascus Road, Sproul guides us to a deeper understanding of Christ's glory. Paul said to King Agrippa about his conversion experience, "I was not disobedient to the vision from heaven." Sproul concludes: "This is the statement every Christian longs to make at the end of his life. This is the proper response to the manifestation of the glory of Christ." Book jacket.
