“Garry Wills brings his signature brand of erudite, unorthodox thinking to his latest book of revelations. . . . A tour de force and a profound show of faith.” (O, the Oprah Magazine) Look out for a new book from Garry Wills, What The Qur'an Meant, coming fall 2017. In what are billed “culture wars,” people on the political right and the political left cite Jesus as endorsing their views. But in this New York Times-bestselling masterpiece, Garry Wills argues that Jesus subscribed to no political program. He was far more radical than that. In a fresh reading of the gospels, Wills explores the meaning of the “reign of heaven” Jesus not only promised for the future but brought with him into this life. It is only by dodges and evasions that people misrepresent what Jesus plainly had to say against power, the wealthy, and religion itself. But Wills is just as critical of those who would make Jesus a mere ethical teacher, ignoring or playing down his divinity. An illuminating analysis for believers and nonbelievers alike, What Jesus Meant is a brilliant addition to our national conversation on religion.
The main goal of this book is to provide a collection of essays (formerly only available separately in various academic journals) that offer untraditional and original exegetical insights into, or solutions to, popular or problematic Old Testament texts and topics. It illustrates the science and art of exegesis by an author within a broad evangelical context and demonstrates the interpretive value of reading biblical texts without prejudice to tradition and with careful attention to their historical and cultural contexts.
One sight that is common in every city, every town, and every village, is a funeral procession or burial service. You probably attended one not long ago! So, where did all the people who died go? What happened to the victims of First and Second World Wars? What happened to all the slaves who perished when they were carried from Africa to America? What happened to the many people who have died of HIV, Ebola virus and Corona virus? One thing we know for sure is, they are no longer with us. One minute they are alive, the next minute they are gone! So where did they go? Through the pages of this thought-provoking book, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills will take us beyond the grave, through scripture, to find out where they went.
“Truly a masterpiece.” —Lawrence Joseph On a ravaged street overlooking a cemetery in a Christian enclave in war-torn 1970s Beirut, we meet Pavlov, the son of a local undertaker. When his father dies suddenly, Pavlov is approached by a member of the mysterious Hellfire Society—an anti-religious sect that arranges secret burial for outcasts denied last rites because of their religion or sexuality. Pavlov agrees to take on his father’s work for the society, and over the course of the novel he becomes a survivor-chronicler of his embattled and faded community at the heart of Lebanon’s civil war.
Does it burn forever someplace in the middle of the earth with the damned being cooked by the devil? Hell, every religion seems to have some version of it. Some beliefs make God and Satan out to be equal sovereigns reigning over their respective domains, heaven and hell. Other beliefs make hell a place of eternal unhappiness. Many people have turned away from belief in God and many others are confused about His loving character all because of a misunderstanding of Hell. Find out what the Bible really says about hell and put the confusion to rest. God is a God of love, mercy, and justice, and a correct understanding of Hell is essential to understanding God's plan to get rid of sin forever.
The gospel is being preached, however, the Bible makes it clear that it is the “truth of the gospel” that has to be proclaimed to the world before it ends and warns of those preaching a “different gospel.” This true gospel was being followed when Christ’s followers were first called Christians after He left earth and only those adhering to this same gospel will be translated when He returns. In a thoughtful word-by-word commentary on the most famous and most quoted verse in the Bible, Randy Barnes, with no denominational predisposition, shows how a correct understanding of John 3:16 clearly illuminates this identical gospel when the paradigms of customs and traditions are eliminated from its interpretations. Using biblical hermeneutics and contextual juxtaposition as tools, Barnes shows how the Bible gives its own interpretation of not only of John 3:16, but all other verses, as well. Using only scriptural references, Barnes demonstrates how God has used both the Jewish and Christian faiths to spread the story of the true gospel to the world by examining over two dozen doctrinal issues—from the earth’s creation to its recreation, from the books of Genesis to Revelation. The book is formatted with both a comprehensive table of contents and an exhaustive index to enable its use as reference for Bible study. Supplemental information such as diagrams and illustrations are also included to assist in your reading enjoyment. Christians will find excellent support for foundational principles as well as be challenged in much traditional thinking.
