They Say that I Am Two by Marcos McPeek Villatoro Pdf
From 1985 to 1996, Marcos McPeek Villatoro lived in various Latino worlds, both in the United States and in Central America. A richly hued-tapestry of his life and the lives of the people around him during that decade emerges in They Say that I Am Two. Villatoro writes about witnessing friends disappear in raids by immigration agents and making love in a Guatemalan jungle where death squads wait silently outside the door. As a man of two distinct ethnic backgrounds, his poetry invites us to explore the deeper, sometimes disturbing questions regarding race and culture. His verse, both in English and Spanish, draws us into the personal and the political, from the vision of a beautiful, young Nicaraguan woman guarding the Honduran border during wartime to the raucous, heretical reflections upon organized religion. Poignant, comic and planted deep in the rich soil of many languages and voices, They Say that I Am Two introduces the unique and singular voice of a man whose poetry resists the entrapment of borders.
But Who Do You Say That I Am? by Raphael M. Obotama Pdf
Millions of people in the world today can identify themselves as Christians and thousands of churches spread across the globe. When one looks at the different and sometimes conflicting tenets propagated by these followers of Jesus it is apparent that not everybody who professes to be Christian truly knows Jesus. This book, But Who Do Say That I Am?, interrogates the individuals relationship with Christ in the context of a personal answer to this question. Some people only follow Jesus the miracle worker, who turned water into wine, and run away from Jesus the suffering servant, who cried aloud on the cross in the midst of excruciating suffering.

But Who Do You Say That I Am? by William Stewart Whittemore Pdf
Stewart Whittemore asks the most penetrating question of our age. "Who is this Jesus whom we serve?" "Who do you say that He is?" Stu brings a fresh perspective of Jesus, the Messiah in the Hebrew Scriptures, the Lord of Hosts, the prophetic teacher who met the disciples on the Road to Emmaus, and whose presence extends before and beyond the order of Melchizedek. I guarantee you will be blessed by reading "But who do you say that I am?" Chaplain Sandi Richard', M.Div., BCC The Bible just did not make sense to me! So I was surprised when Stewart Whittemore sent me a draft copy of (his) latest book and asked me to review and edit his writings. I began the task, looking at grammar, spelling and sentence structure. Soon, I comprehended a clear view into God's story and how life in the Old Testament foretold future events that would take place in the New Testament, at the coming of His Son, Jesus of Nazareth. Stewart's clear writing with biblical references, comparing the old and new testaments, allowed me to finally gain an understanding and appreciation into the meaning, content and truth in God's Holy Bible: It is "HIS Story" to us, HIS children! Bette Jo Martinoli Ultimately, we must all decide who the Christ is, and that decision will set the course of our lives for all eternity. Join Stewart in a walk through God's ancient word to his chosen people. Your heart will burn at revelations of His work to save those who believe in the One and Only God and His Son whom he would send. Please, don't miss this intimate offer to walk, learn, and choose life. Dave Wright, author of "Not Enough Tears."
In John 8:32 Jesus said, “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Then why, do I have doubts about my salvation? What is truth? What does free mean? How can I know for sure that I have salvation? One cannot be free without salvation! No wonder that many have doubts about salvation. Jesus despised the religious traditions of mankind. He called those who were chained with religion’s traditions, hypocrites. He quoted Isaiah’s prophecy in Matt 15:9, “But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.” In Vain? With no purpose? Jesus was saying, you worship in folly. He was saying to the religious leaders with their man-made rules and to their followers, you shall in no case enter into the “Kingdom of Heaven”. What is your litmus test to obtain salvation? Have you wondered about the rules and laws that you follow? What do the leaders of your religion demand of you? This book is filled with answers and with freedom. Not from my mere writings, but with clarity from the Holy Spirit emblazoned in the Holy Bible. The litmus test as a boy growing up in a church was if you did not smoke, drink, cuss, dance, be with girls, play with cards, gamble, play pool, go to bars, break any of the 10 commandments, miss church service; you might go to heaven. I think, I pretty much flunked. Non the less, that was preached from the pulpit. You will see gratitude for dedicated people who have unbelievable IQ’s in science, but you will find that even some truly great intellects fail to see a need for God. The Living God relationship is needed by every living human which does include all of the Intellects and those of us with less evolution. Included are a few of the personal happenings of my life that are clearly Spiritual. This book reveals only a few of God’s actual involvements in spite of my fleeting fellowship with Him. The mathematical probability of each is prodigious. Why do people say that “God loves us”? If you read carefully, the answer is clear. The definition of grace will be understandable. Faith is explored. Is faith really necessary? How does one know if they have faith? Do you think you are saved and yet you still sin, occasionally? For some us, maybe more than occasionally. If you do, comfort may be near. But most importantly, we are going to die. What, then? The book sometimes may have, some troubling details. Our soul will meet up with our new body and this information is more than sparsely included. What is it like in Hell? The answer is clear. It is for sure that it is not one, never-ending, great big party of like-minded individuals. The book touches on what it is like to live in hell. Eternally, to live there. Do I really exist after I die? Maybe you should get this book. I am as certain as I can be that when you finish reading you will probably think of someone that desperately needs this book.
"Who do you say that I am?" is the absolute, most important question in your life. Who Jesus is to you shapes everything, from the way you conduct yourself in public to how you treat other people and to how genuine of a person you are. Do you fear what's after this life? Are you sure but not sure about what you believe? Who you say Jesus is, is the linchpin to all the fears and uncertainties that we all face in our lives. Is Jesus your lord and savior? Is Jesus a myth, just the name in a story? I am here to tell you, that is not the case. Jesus can and will remove all fear and uncertainty from your life if you believe. How you answer the question "Who do you say that I am?" sets you up to see glory or see misery and torment. This book is an attempt to get to the heart of the matter, who Jesus is, and not get bogged down by all manner of theology. That so often just muddies the water. Who Jesus is to you decides your eternal destiny, and nobody can answer that question but you.

Who Do You Say That I Am? by Michael Root,James J. Buckley Pdf
No question is more central to Christian living, preaching, and theology than Jesus' question to his disciples: Who do you say that I am? Some would have it that pastors and theologians, biblical exegetes and historians, dogmatic and moral theologians, Catholic and Evangelical have more differences than similarities in the way Christians with such diverse vocations respond to Jesus' question. And there is little doubt that there sometimes seem to be unbridgeable gulfs between the way historians and believers, Internet gossipers and preachers, classical christological debates and present-day praying and pastoral care implicitly or explicitly address the Lord's question. But the authors here address these and other issues in ways that are remarkably convergent, as if a "Catholic and Evangelical theology" for proclaiming and following Jesus today has emerged, or is indeed emerging.
Who Do You Say I Am? by George Kalantzis,David B. Capes,Ty Kieser Pdf
Human existence is a bodily existence. A first principle of historic Christianity has been that Jesus assumed our humanity and everything essential to it in order that God may redeem all of our existence. Christ is the revelation of God and the revelation of true humanity. As we seek to understand our embodied experiences of the world and one another we do so in light of the embodied life of Jesus Christ. Jesus’s humanity shows us what it means to live an embodied human life rightly and how we, as embodied human beings, can relate to the world around us. In this book we invite readers to explore with us why the humanity of Jesus is central to the Christian understanding of community, society, salvation, and life with God. Over the span of these ten chapters this book draws from biblical, historic, and cultural discussions as it enters into the breadth of the significance of the humanity of Jesus and explores how the reality of the Incarnation challenges and redeems our broken social structures, racial and ethnic divisions, economic systems, and sexuality.
Out of long involvement with adherents of many religions, Shenk dares to assert that one can be profoundly respectful of people of other faith traditions and still retain the integrity of one's own faith. -- from the Foreword by Wilbert R. Shenk Can we respect other religions and still view Christ as normative for all? Yes, says Calvin Shenk, Professor Emeritus of Religion at Eastern Mennonite University. How? Answers are not simple. However, biblical perspectives on religions provide reliable starting points for the journey. And placing Christ at the center of the quest yields clarity amid complexity. For Christians, candid commitment to the uniqueness of Christ is to be accomplished by the integrity of Christ. This leads to loving witness that includes truly dialoguing with persons committed to other religions. 'Who Do You Say That I Am?' assesses contemporary theologies of religious pluralism as well as several of the world's major religions, yet remains accessible to all thoughtful Christians.
Who Do You Say I Am seeks to bridge the gap between the reader who reads for empowerment and the reader who reads for knowledge.
