That Famous Fig Leaf by Chad W. Thompson Pdf

Nothing that God created is the source of our human temptation. To the contrary! The human body is the crown of God's creation—consummated by his declaration that it was good. That God’s people are unable to view the body without sinning is not an indictment of the body itself, but of the immaturity of the post-modern evangelical mind. We live in a culture whose inhabitants spend billions of dollars a year to see each other naked on internet sites and in pornographic films, yet are often uncomfortable changing in front of each other in locker rooms or even being seen in a swimsuit on the beach. Could it be that we have so profoundly fused the image of the exposed body with sexual gratification that there is no context left for it to be laid bare without evoking either shame or arousal? In That Famous Fig Leaf, Chad Thompson explores the spiritual implications of the physical body and, surprisingly, uncovers a new kind of freedom from sexual addiction along the way. Chad critiques the Christian purity movement for conflating purity with prudery, and reveals that changing how we esteem our bodies has the power to heal the hypersexualized body consciousness of our culture.

Leaves From the Fig Tree by Diana Duff Pdf

Born in Africa, Anglo-Irish by descent, Diana, aged two, travelled from Johannesburg to Ireland, to Annes Grove, a stately Georgian home with world-famous gardens, with talk of horses, rare plants and fishing juxtaposed with tales of banshees, the little people, ráths, the foxy-haired ghost and visits from Elizabeth Bowen, Vita Sackville-West, David Cecil and many others. Aged 18, Diana returned to Africa, where she doubled for Grace Kelly in 'Mogambo', met Raymond Hook, the king of cheetah racing, befriended the legendary Ewart Grogran and unwittingly employed a Mau Mau leader. Ever one to stand up for what is right, she challenged the authorities at the height of apartheid – and won! With humour, eloquence, empathy and candour, Diana shares her return to a place from her childhood, where family truths are learned, along with the realisation that Africa has real magic all of its own. p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }

The Modern Fig Leaf by Pablo Giacopelli Pdf

Rediscover Your True Identity, Fulfillment, and Purpose We come to the world naked, and we depart naked. How about we live it naked, too? I want to stop pretending every day more and more. Pretending to be something I am not. Pretending to believe in things I think or say . . . when I don't. I want to be real, raw, and uncensored to God, to those that I come across, and to you. from the Introduction In the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve hid their nakedness and shame behind a fig leaf--what are you hiding behind? Many people have asked Jesus into their hearts, but live out the rest of their lives hidden and ashamed, not knowing that they can stand authentic, free, and joyful before others and a God who loves them and wants to show them who they truly are! In The Modern Fig Leaf, Pablo Giacopelli takes you on a real, raw, and unforgettable journey into the human heart... and into the very heart of God. Rediscover your true identity as you unlock the Source of meaning, purpose, and fulfillment in your life!

Drop the Fig Leaf by Everest Bryce Pdf

We were not designed to live in this world of deception, lust, judgment, and greed. We were made for freedom, adventure, the infinite, to live freely, openly, honestly and uninhibited. Given the reality of life on earth, leaving ourselves too vulnerable, too exposed to all the selfishness and greed is simply not a viable survival option. All of us eventually have to put up our guard and run for cover. We close ourselves in, put up walls and when that happens, we cover up much of our intended greatness. These coverings we feel forced to place over our hearts, minds, spirits and bodies are the Fig Leaves of our lives. Drop the Fig Leaf takes a very straightforward look at these fig leaves, what lies behind them, how did they get there and most importantly, how to remove them. We will look at whats at stake, whats on the other side of the fig-leaves, what was intended for us all along, and how we can fight back and ultimately win the greatest battle of our lives. Get ready for an exhilarating, eye opening and life changing journey - The battle for our original and natural freedom.

The Fig Leaf Conspiracy by Jimmy Evans Pdf

In this timely book, Jimmy Evans exposes an ancient plot designed to rob every man and woman of joy, fulfillment, health and genuine intimacy—the progressive distortion of God-given sexuality. In ripping the cover from this pervasive deception, Evans points us to the path to restoration and sexual wholeness. Every teen, single adult and married couple living in our decaying culture urgently needs the startling truths found here. “I want you to know beyond any doubt that sex is God’s subject. And it is time for the Church to take it back from the devil, baptize it, and call it holy. The Fig Leaf Conspiracy has touched countless lives down through the ages…perhaps even your own. Our loving Father, however, has made a way to take back the gift. He sent Jesus to undo the work of the Deceiver. He has made a way of escape for us—a way back to the Garden. So what’s the answer? How do we get back to God’s original plan for sexuality? Finding liberating answers to those questions is the very focus of this book.”—Jimmy Evans

The Dove, the Fig-Leaf and the Sword by Alan Billings Pdf

Why does the pacifist movement of the first few centuries so quickly become an organization that supports emperors and finds reasons for fighting? ? What leads the Church to formulate just war principles only to abandon them when in pursuit of heretics and infidels? ? What impact did two world wars have on Christian thinking? ? Why have the churches in more recent years and a more secular age apparently taken a more cautious approach to war? These are the sort of questions this absorbing book sets out to answer. It makes a unique and intriguing contribution to the literature published to mark the centenary of the outbreak of the Great War in August 2014.
