Story of Rich Man and Lazarus: Hell and Heaven Described In Their Own Words by Ronald F. Owens Jr Pdf

This "Story of Rich Man and Lazarus: Hell and Heaven Described in Their Own Words" book is about the lives of a rich man and a homeless man and what happened to them in eternity after their respective deaths. This first-person account is based on "a certain rich man" and "a certain beggar named Lazarus" story, which Jesus Christ shared with His disciples in the Holy Bible's Gospel of Luke (16:19-31). In Chapter 1, I describe how the rich man, "A Certain Rich Man," dressed, what he owned, who he socialized with, where he socialized, how he recreated, where he recreated, how his life was centered around himself, his sins, how he rejected the LORD and how he died. In Chapter 2, I describe how Lazarus, "A Certain Homeless Man," dressed, how he survived as a homeless man on the street, his poor choices, how a miraculous incident which caused Lazarus to finally rededicate his life to Jesus Christ and how he died. In Chapter 3, I describe what the "Tormented Sinner" saw, what he feels/experiences in hell and the unspeakable agonies he suffers there, such as being separated from God's presence. In Chapter 4, I describe what the "Comforted Saint" saw, what he feels/experiences in Heaven and the indescribable peace he experiences there, such as being warmed by God's presence. This book is a story sharing with readers where not to go (hell) after death, where to go (Heaven) after dying, and how to get there (salvation through Jesus Christ).

Rethinking Hell by Christopher Date,Gregory Stump,Joshua Anderson Pdf

Most evangelical Christians believe that those people who are not saved before they die will be punished in hell forever. But is this what the Bible truly teaches? Do Christians need to rethink their understanding of hell? In the late twentieth century, a growing number of evangelical theologians, biblical scholars, and philosophers began to reject the traditional doctrine of eternal conscious torment in hell in favor of a minority theological perspective called conditional immortality. This view contends that the unsaved are resurrected to face divine judgment, just as Christians have always believed, but due to the fact that immortality is only given to those who are in Christ, the unsaved do not exist forever in hell. Instead, they face the punishment of the "second death"--an end to their conscious existence. This volume brings together excerpts from a variety of well-respected evangelical thinkers, including John Stott, John Wenham, and E. Earl Ellis, as they articulate the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for conditionalism. These readings will give thoughtful Christians strong evidence that there are indeed compelling reasons for rethinking hell.

Dead Men Talking by Thomas S. Warren II Pdf

"This book is an absolute MUST for every serious student of the Word of God and should be required reading for every prospective minister." --Rev. Dr. J. Ronald Schoolcraft, Advent Christian Church, Jacksonville, Florida Dead Men Talking is a clear and simple biblical guide for everyone who seeks to understand the real meaning of life and death. A pastor for more than thirty years, Thomas S. Warren II allows the Scriptures to speak for themselves. The most natural teachings of the Bible, he says, reveal a distinct difference between God's Word and popular traditions. Using the Bible as his guide in separating biblical truth from cultural consensus, and fact from fiction, Warren examines such contemplative questions as: Will there be a Second Coming? What is resurrection? What really happens when we die? What is eternal life? To help readers further explore these and other important questions, Warren has incorporated a study guide that lends hands-on practicality to the ideas and issues covered in his book. If you are ready to search for answers--even if it means questioning everything you've ever learned--then Dead Men Talking is the perfect companion on your journey to spiritual discovery.

Her Gates Will Never Be Shut by Brad Jersak Pdf

Everlasting hell and divine judgment, a lake of fire and brimstone--these mainstays of evangelical tradition have come under fire once again in recent decades. Would the God of love revealed by Jesus really consign the vast majority of humankind to a destiny of eternal, conscious torment? Is divine mercy bound by the demands of justice? How can anyone presume to know who is saved from the flames and who is not? Reacting to presumptions in like manner, others write off the fiery images of final judgment altogether. If there is a God who loves us, then surely all are welcome into the heavenly kingdom, regardless of their beliefs or behaviors in this life. Yet, given the sheer volume of threat rhetoric in the Scriptures and the wickedness manifest in human history, the pop-universalism of our day sounds more like denial than hope. Mercy triumphs over judgment; it does not skirt it. Her Gates Will Never Be Shut endeavors to reconsider what the Bible and the Church have actually said about hell and hope, noting a breadth of real possibilities that undermines every presumption. The polyphony of perspectives on hell and hope offered by the prophets, apostles, and Jesus humble our obsessive need to harmonize every text into a neat theological system. But they open the door to the eternal hope found in Revelation 21-22: the City whose gates will never be shut; where the Spirit and Bride perpetually invite the thirsty who are outside the city to "Come, drink of the waters of life."

Feet on Earth, Head in Heaven by Norma Jean Duncan Pdf

Norma Jean Duncan found God following a personal revelation of his love. In a life now dedicated to him, she offers her readers an account of her journey that illustrates the difficulties of living in a secular world with a heavenly perspective. Duncan weaves personal reflections into her discussions on the glory of God, prayer, love, forgiveness, obedience, and terminal illness and shows the relevance of scriptural wisdom to the life of every modern believer. There are chapters on eternal scriptural truth, and the factors that corrupt it and lead to the promotion of intolerance and injustice in organized religion. The author examines this difficulty in relation to subjects like creation, sexuality, gender submission, faith and works, the spiritual standing of those who have no knowledge of Christ, and the rise of aggressive atheism. Through discussion of these controversial but important topics, her intention is that the Christian community will lead and not follow the contemporary secular world.
