In God’s Patience and our Work Ben Fulford argues that Hans Frei’s theology and ethics offers unheralded but valuable resources for thinking about the social and political engagement of Christian communities in pluralistic societies in light of hope in Jesus Christ. He shows how Frei’s project of recovering the conditions for and shape of a generous orthodoxy runs through his work, offering broad, flexible vision of Christian identity, ethical responsibility and humanistic witness, focused in the person and presence of Jesus Christ. In dialogue with liberation theologies, Fulford draws from Frei an account of divine patience and providence to frame hopeful, pragmatic Christian participation in work for dignity, justice and penultimate reconciliation, rooted in new and deeper contextual reading of his work.
Patience—A Theological Exploration by Paul Dafydd Jones Pdf
What does it mean to exercise patience? What does it mean to endure, to wait, and to persevere-and, on other occasions, to reject patience in favor of resistance, haste, and disruptive action? And what might it mean to describe God as patient? Might patience play a leading role in a Christian account of God's creative work, God's relationship to ancient Israel, God's governance of history, and God's saving activity? The first instalment of Patience-A Theological Exploration engages these questions in searching, imaginative, and sometimes surprising ways. Following reflections on the biblical witness and the nature of constructive theological inquiry, its interpretative chapters engage landmark works by a number of ancient, medieval, modern, and contemporary authors, disclosing both the promise and peril of talk about patience. Patience stands at the center of this innovative account of God's creative work, God's relationship with ancient Israel, creaturely sin, scripture, and God's broader providential and salvific purposes.
It has been said that there can be no true faith where the will of God is hidden. Likewise, there can be no true faith where patience has not been demonstrated. Have you ever wondered what factors were at work during the time between Abraham's promise and the provision? Have you ever considered why 25 years passed before Abraham received a promise that God gave him the faith to receive? The God of Patience explores the power of patience in establishing sonship in the life of Abraham. By examining the principle of patience, and its relationship to faith, The God Of Patience guides the reader into God's heart and mind as he constructs the character and trust of the man who would become the prototype known as the "Father of Faith." As you delve into the truths of The God of Patience, experience the battles, victories, defeats and ultimate triumph Abraham wins as aligned with the purpose, plans and pace of The Almighty!

Last Letters to Christian by Douglas A. Weigent Pdf
The purpose of this book is to share the great work that God does in our souls for eternal life. We are always on a journey, outlined and empowered by the love of God. He provides the spiritual fountain we drink from to be like Christ. For the new creation, we are transformed into the image of Jesus. God builds into our lives the fruit of His own Spirit. The discussion of God’s attributes in these letters allows the comparison to be made between the transfiguration of our hearts, and the reflection of His image. We are not gods, but we can be godly. I include letters on God’s power, wisdom and providence, proving that only God is able to do this heart work. I include letters on the fruit of the Spirit for patience, goodness, faithfulness, freedom and holiness, establishing our reflection of God’s handiwork. In God’s time and way, He brings us to places in our lives where we experience and better understand His goodness.
The JOY of Giving Volume 2: America's Theology of "What Works for Me" Faith by Philip Ellerbrock Pdf
We believe in ourselves, innovation, markets, technology... and end up with government growing, because our lawlessness increases. Have we a backup plan, if the "Rapture" turns out to be as Y2K? Others also, look for a messiah. Addressing the UN in September '05, Iranian President Ahmadinejad tells the world: "When that day comes, the ultimate promise of all divine religions will be fulfilled with the emergence of a perfect human being who is heir to all prophets and pious men. He will lead the world to justice and absolute peace." What should we do today-given all the alarm and exhortation? Bill Bradley tells us, a "can do" story is all we need tell America and ourselves. Here is really what is going on: "For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he [a Holy Spirit of Truth] is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed." (2 Thess 2:7-8) Will we continue to love, as Christ loved us?
Thoughts to Enlighten and Empower the Mind by Errol A. Gibbs,Philip A. Grey Pdf
Thoughts to Enlighten and Empower the Mind is a compilation of two thousand and one questions and philosophical thoughts extracted from the authors' seminal work, Five Foundations of Human Development. These thoughts follow the same chronology of information that helps to promote fulfilling lives through human development from spiritual, moral, social, intellectual, and physical perspectives. The authors proffer that human beings possess the capacity to rise to a higher state of civilization when we allow our thoughts to permeate our minds with hope and optimism for the future of humanity. Gibbs and Grey support the premise put forward by many great writers who contend that our thoughts determine happiness and effectiveness in life. Our thoughts and our emotions have a great influence on our carnal impulses and desires. We nurture good and bad thoughts, and human effort alone is insufficient to properly manage them. Negative thoughts establish barriers to communications and harmonious living. Positive thoughts radiate harmony among individuals and nations. More importantly, those in positions of great power who lead humanity, must, by their thoughts, help to create a better world, or inadvertently plunge humanity into great chaos as has been recorded in six-thousand years of human history. Only a mind that is free of unhealthy thoughts transcends a life of fulfillment. Positive thoughts permeate our beings and open up new frontiers of positive leadership for the modern age. The global significance of this book is that it informs a more communal view of our world by virtue of the conditioning of our thoughts. It will help inform, enlighten, and empower the minds of leaders to embrace every field of endeavor, including engineering, science, religion, politics, the military, and the environment. This will be accomplished with the most vital, creative, and positive thoughts that rise to a high level of responsibility for the betterment of all humanity.
