The Human Identity Problem (9781478183549)

Humans are the only species who are capable of considering their own existence - of forming a self-identity. Intuition has historically been the wellspring of notions which address rhetorical questions about our identity and purpose. These concepts are embodied in classical religion. However, Darwin's publication of Origin of the Species in 1859, profoundly changed the nature of our identity. Suddenly, we became "just another part" of the natural world. The theory of evolution is well founded but is denied by a majority of people the world over. The Human Identity Problem discusses the consequences which face humanity if we continue to misconstrue our own identity. Product details Format Paperback | 78 pages ...

Acts : A Theological Commentary on the Bible (9780664234003)

In this new commentary for the Belief series, award-winning author and theologian Willie James Jennings explores the relevance of the book of Acts for the struggles of today. While some see Acts as the story of the founding of the Christian church, Jennings argues that it is so much more, depicting revolutionlife in the disrupting presence of the Spirit of God. According to Jennings, Acts is like Genesis, revealing a God who is moving over the land, putting into place a holy repetition that speaks of the willingness of God to invade our every day and our every moment. He reminds us that Acts took place in a time of Empire, when the people were caught between diaspora Israel and the Empire of Rome. The spirit of God intervened, offering new life to both. Jennings shows that Acts teaches how people of faith can yield to the Spirit to overcome the divisions of our present world. Product details ...

The Christian and Demons : Can a Christian Be Possessed? (9780892284269)

A Comprehensive Answer to an Essential Question for the Church Today This is one of the most challenging and controversial issues in the Body of Christ today. The uncertainty surrounding this issue creates an obstacle to the greater move of the Holy Spirit taking place on earth today. Some choose to avoid the topic of demons altogether, hoping by avoiding the subject, the devil will leave them, and their Church, alone. Others reject the ministry of deliverance for the Christian, based on modern doctrine and theology. The question remains, however: What purpose did it serve for Jesus to teach extensively about, and actively demonstrate, the casting out of demons? In this concise teaching, Frank Hammond answers the most pressing questions about the deliverance ministry, and whether it applies to Christians todayƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚]ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚€ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚] ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚[ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚€ƒƒ‚ƒƒ‚‚ƒƒƒ‚‚ƒ‚‚‚ƒƒ...
