Jesus the Harmony by Gracia M. Grindal Pdf

In this one-of-a-kind volume, author and poet Gracia Grindal has written 366 sonnets based on the life and ministry of Jesus to inspire meditation and reflection. Each poem entry is based on a specific biblical connection and relates to a holy day or season. The book's introduction provides historic background on Gospel harmonies, tells the story of how the author created the sonnets, and offers suggestions for using this unique devotional volume.The author describes the project as a holy obsession. Grindal uses a Harmony of the Gospels by Johannes Thorbjûrnson Ylvisaker (1845-1917) to guide her selection of lessons to set in sonnet form. Traditional lists of texts have been used devotionally by the church over the centuries to tell the story of Jesus. (The reading of the Passion story on Palm/Passion Sunday, for example, is traditionally called a harmony.) Ultimately, the goal is to encourage creative reflection on these texts.The author compares this distinctive collection to work of French painter James Tissot, who painted some 350 paintings depicting the story of Jesus. The poems are written accessibly but often have a twist or metaphor at the end, to cause readers to be moved or surprised and to make connections with the rest of life, the Bible, and the reader's own story.These poems may be used one per day as a devotional meditation, or as readings in sermons, teaching, or worship.

A Harmony of the Words and Works of Jesus Christ by J. Dwight Pentecost Pdf

Study the life, ministry, and teaching of Jesus Christ in harmony—with all the relevant material from the Gospels placed side by side on the page and in chronological sequence. The goal of this volume by author and teacher J. Dwight Pentecost is to help you know Jesus better by getting a clearer picture of him through the four Gospels—the books that directly depict his life, his ministry, and his heart. To show the harmony of the gospels, passages are arranged in parallel columns when more than one is cited so that you can easily see the accounts beside one another. This simple, logical presentation of the complete parallel text with the outline greatly simplifies your study of Christ's life. A Harmony of the Words and Works of Jesus Christ is ideal for use with its companion volume, The Words and Works of Jesus Christ, a comprehensive study of the life of Christ. A Harmony of the Words and Works of Jesus Christ also makes an outstanding parallel Scripture text for any study of the gospels or the life of Christ. All Scripture is in the New International Version (NIV).

A Harmony of the Gospels in Modern English by Fred R. Coulter Pdf

The third edition of THE HARMONY OF THE GOSPELS IN MODERN ENGLISH; THE LIFE OF JESUS CHRIST by Fred R. Coulter gives the reader am easy-to-understand, step-by-step account of the life of Jesus Christ. The message and purpose of the TRUE Jesus come alive throughout its pages. A new precise translation of the Scriptures conveys the full impact of the words of the Gospel writers. Using the framework of the Hebrew Calendar, synchronized with Julian Calendar, the true chronology of Jesus' life has been accurately depicted. The Scriptural and chronological facts reveal that Jesus was born in the fall of 5 BC -not on December 25 in 1 AD. He was crucified on Passover day in the spring of 30 AD, and His body was in the tomb for three days and three nights - a full 72 hours. He was resurrected at the end of the weekly Sabbath-not a sunrise on Easter Sunday. The commentary sections that explain these facts are technically accurate and thoroughly researched in order to aid the serious Bible student and minster. Graphically illustrated charts simplify such chronologically important events as The Birth of Jesus, Six Days Before Jesus' Last Passover, and The Three Days and Three Nights in the Tomb. Additional features include a synchronized Hebrew and Julian calendar, topical and Scriptural indices, a complete bibliography and strategically placed footnotes. The flavor of the Holy Land has been captures through a unique combination of over 100 photographs, as well as original artwork depicting Jerusalem and the temple of the first century. Maps showing Jesus' journeys help the reader to "travel with Him." These features combine to make this the most complete harmony ever available.

The Gospel Harmony of Jesus Christ by Abner Smith Pdf

Abner Smith is a 24 year retired veteran of the United States Regular Army. During his tenure in the military as a Senior Personnel Sergeant and Detachment First Sergeant, Personnel accountability was a critical function to him. During the processing of monthly Unit Status Reports, if the numbers were off by one person, he could not rest or concentrate, until that number was resolved. Sometimes it would take hours and days to resolve. Some suggested just putting a number in there and forwarding the report, but his conscience would not allow it. He had to be able to rest with a sound mind, that the numbers he reported to his Battalion Commander was accurate. Could that be one of the things the Lord seen in him, to give him a task of this magnitude, of combining his life story? Abner Smith is eternally grateful, to our Saviour Jesus Christ, for giving him such an important task. As a young man his grandfather always taught him about Jesus Christ. He attended church periodically at Adair Street Church of Christ in Valdosta, GA. As a teenager, a friend name Steve Newton, invited him to South Lee Street Seventh Day Adventist Church. He told him as a lure, that we have a lot of pretty young women that attend, however, to Abner surprise; there were mainly elderly women in attendance. Ironically, that attendance was a life changing situation for him, because the Pastor name Lewis Edwards taught about Jesus Christ so vivid, that Abner returned again and again, to hear more about Jesus Christ, and eventually got baptized. Abner has always kept Jesus uppermost in his heart and mind every since.

The Harmony of the Gospels by Saint Augustine of Hippo,Aeterna Press Pdf

In the entire number of those divine records which are contained in the sacred writings, the gospel deservedly stands pre-eminent. For what the law and the prophets aforetime announced as destined to come to pass, is exhibited in the gospel in its realization and fulfilment. The first preachers of this gospel were the apostles, who beheld our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in person when He was yet present in the flesh. Aeterna Press

The Harmony Of The Gospels (Annotated Edition) by St. Augustine of Hippo Pdf

This is the extended and annotated edition including * an extensive biographical annotation about the author and his life Book I. The treatise opens with a short statement on the subject of the authority of the Evangelists, their number, their order, and the different plans of their narratives. Augustine then prepares for the discussion of the questions relating to their harmony, by joining issue in this book with those who raise a difficulty in the circumstance that Christ has left no writing of His own, or who falsely allege that certain books were composed by Him on the arts of magic. He also meets the objections of those who, in opposition to the evangelical teaching, assert that the disciples of Christ at once ascribe more to their Master than He really was, when they affirmed that He was God, and inculcated what they had not been instructed in by Him, when they interdicted the worship of the gods. Against these antagonists he vindicates the teaching of the Apostles, by appealing to the utterances of the Prophets, and by showing that the God of Israel was to be the sole object of worship, who also, although He was the only Deity to whom acceptance was denied in former times by the Romans, and that for the very reason that He prohibited them from worshipping other gods along with Himself, has now in the end made the Empire of Rome subject to His Name, and among all nations has broken their idols in pieces through the preaching of the Gospel, as He had promised by His prophets that the event should be. Book II. In this book Augustine undertakes an orderly examination of the Gospel according to Matthew, on to the narrative of the Supper, and institutes a comparison between it and the other Gospels by Mark, Luke, and John, with the view of demonstrating a complete harmony between the four Evangelists throughout all these sections. Book III. This book contains a demonstration of the harmony of the Evangelists from the accounts of the Supper on to the end of the Gospel, the narratives given by the several writers being collated, and the whole arranged in one orderly connection. Book IV. This book embraces a discussion of those passages which are peculiar to Mark, Luke, or John.

Book of Harmony by Martin J. Lohrmann Pdf

The Reformation-era writings that make up the Lutheran Confessions remain lively resources for Christian ministry and mission today. Because each of the documents within the Book of Concord was written with a specific context and rhetorical purpose in mind, each has its own compelling story and objectives. Luther’s catechisms present the faith for daily life at the grass-roots level, with teaching elements that we might now view as typical of social media and multimedia. The Augsburg Confession and its Apology provide an adaptable foundation for preaching, teaching, church organization, and dialogue that is rooted in the promise of Christ, received through faith. Fifteen years after the Diet of Worms, the Smalcald Articles reveal yet another “Here I stand” moment for Luther. Finally, the Formula of Concord shows how the next generations of Lutherans used collaboration and consensus as they wrestled with important themes of faith and life. In summary, as these texts engage us with their stories, they invite us to consider what is most important about our journeys of faith and Christian witness in today’s twenty-first-century contexts.

Harmony in the Body by Gilbert Asamoah Pdf

For several generations, the Body of Christ has been persistently troubled with disharmony among believers and denominations. On the one hand is the prayer of the Lord Jesus for unity in John Chapter 17. On the other hand is the strife and disunity that often characterize our relationships with one another within His Body. The mystery of the Body of Christ has often been discussed among believers with respect to the union between the Head, namely Christ, and His Body, the Church. “Harmony in the Body” presents another often underemphasized aspect which is the interrelationships among members of the Body of Christ. This book challenges the reader to appreciate the fact that unity in the Body of Christ also requires that its members see each other as one spiritual body. This has implications for all levels of Christian profession, organization and ministry. “Harmony in the Body” speaks directly to interrelationships among Christians in small or large group settings. It presents how the message of Christ should govern the daily interactions among Christians at the local church level. It also provides insights for resolving denominational tensions. Local pastors will find this book a useful tool as they nurture zealous, up-and-coming Christians within the proper boundaries of church organizations and ministries. This book will urge every Christian to better appreciate their place in the Body of Christ and how their role in the Great Commission fits into the overall plan and purpose of God.
