In the Arena of the Mind by John Vandegriff Pdf

IN THE ARENA OF THE MIND tackles a struggle we all face alone, virtually without help, the struggle of sinful thinking. The book identifies & describes five basic areas of sinful thought, & then shows how God's word gives practical help in turning the tide of this battle. Using colorful illustrations & practical application, it searches the depths of Phillipians 4:8. This pivotal verse provides eight types of godly thought patterns that can be used to replace those five types of ungodly thinking. This book will be very helpful to those who take seriously the Biblical directive to transform & renew one's mind. It will aid the reader in perceiving those areas of struggle that are personally most troubling; & then will clearly describe individual processes of change needed to end unproductive, self-defeating thought while developing God honoring thinking. The types of thought listed in Phillipians 4:8 are investigated in detail, & practical projects are suggested to implement real change in one's thinking & actions. The power of godly thinking over evil thoughts is presented in a manner that any reader, attempting to live in a way that is pleasing to God, will find informative & encouraging.

The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by Julian Jaynes Pdf

National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry

Renewing your mind by Steve Rutz Pdf

Steve Rutz has written an autobiographical treatise on how he got free from addiction to alcohol and drugs; and how he changed his lifestyle from running with the devil on the streets of Newark, New Jersey to explaining to the masses how to allow the very available Love of God into one's heart. He uses humor, personal anecdotes, and rock-and-roll references to bring a common-sense approach to help the baby-boomer generation truly understand what happened to our age. This book depicts the confusion displayed by many Americans, and it narrates how to navigate one's desires back to the correct moral compass, and what one really needs to do to receive the Grace of our Maker. He knows the Power of God from personal experience, and he shares it in these pages. Steve's work can definitely be a reference guide for the reader to become a person of peace. With scores of scriptural references, Steve surrenders all self-gratification to The Highest Power. Celebrities, businessmen, mothers and wives, heroes and heroin addicts alike; or anybody who is recovering, hurting, mourning, or just looking for solutions to life will benefit from the wisdom contained in these words. The Love of God, as manifested in Jesus Christ, has saved Steve Rutz. He is quite overjoyed because of this, and he tells his story from the very bottom of the pit that he has visited to the current day of jubilation. He uses parallels that we all can relate to, and I am absolutely sure that you will not regret reading this masterpiece. Renewing The Mind is written out of love. Every page will get you to think about your fellow man in a deeper way. Steve is a sincere personality who wishes you 'shalom' or a complete peace; which you'll experience when you read and heed this book. The reader becomes Steve's friend as he explains how wonderful God is to His people; and the Power of the Holy Spirit of God comes across through these pages.

Citizenship in a Republic by Theodore Roosevelt Pdf

Citizenship in a Republic is the title of a speech given by Theodore Roosevelt, former President of the United States, at the Sorbonne in Paris, France, on April 23, 1910. One notable passage from the speech is referred to as "The Man in the Arena": It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.

A Christian Perspective of Postmodern Existentialism by John D. Carter Pdf

The Western Humanism originating in classical Greek philosophy—where the capacity of human reason became the dominant means for perceiving a worldview based in reality—reigned in Western philosophy until the onset of Postmodern Existentialism in the mid-twentieth century. Plato’s Theory of Forms prepared the Western gentile mind to accept the rationality of a transcendent ultimate reality, and in so doing steered the gentile mind from its bent to pantheistic deities. The apostle Paul boldly proclaimed to the Athenians that their “unknown god” was indeed the transcendent God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Christianity prevailed in Western philosophy until the Enlightenment—which was the result of the unprecedented success of the scientific method—began to turn the Western mind to the existentialistic idea of the relativity of moral truth.

Dо̄gen Studies by William R. LaFleur Pdf

The induction of Dо̄gen into the modern academic world, or per­haps more accurately, the academic world's first real engagement with Dо̄gen came about 1924 when Watsuji Tetsurо̄ (1889–1960) published a provocative essay entitled "Shaman Dо̄gen." It was this essay that to many of Watsuji's contemporaries seemed to rescue Dо̄gen from what they considered to be his entrapment for nearly seven centuries in the sectarian embrace of the Sо̄tо̄ school. Watsuji insisted that Dо̄gen no longer should be thought of as belonging exclusively to the monastic community. Claiming, instead, that Dо̄gen "belongs to mankind," Watsuji with this declaration initiated the non-sectarian study of this thirteenth-century figure and in effect commenced what are called Dо̄gen Studies [Dagen kenkyii] in modern times. As one way of exploring what it might possibly mean to say that Dо̄gen "belongs to mankind," the Kuroda Institute held a conference on Dо̄gen at Tassajara Springs, California from October 8 to 10, 1981. The essays of this volume are a part of its result.

Masters of Wisdom by Edward Abdill Pdf

A rigorous historical and philosophical examination of the controversial spiritual Masters who guided Madame H.P. Blavatsky in opening the world to Eastern and esoteric spirituality in the late nineteenth century. In the late nineteenth century, Russian noblewoman and occult philosopher Madame H.P. Blavatsky enthralled the world with revelations of an ancient “secret doctrine” behind the major faiths and a cosmic theology that united the insights of religion and science. Blavatsky said she was operating under the guidance of hidden Masters of wisdom, or mahatmas, who led her to reveal forgotten wisdom to modern people. The mythos of Blavatsky’s Masters left a deep mark on Western culture and spawned more than a century of debate: Were the Masters real? What did they teach? Are they reachable today? Now, independent scholar of religion Edward Abdill provides an authoritative, historically reliable, and delightfully readable study of the background and ideas of the Masters – in particular highlighting their message and its enduring relevance.
