Rediscovering the Holy Spirit
Author: Michael Horton
Publisher: Zondervan Academic
ISBN: 0310534070
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
For the Spirit, being somewhat forgotten is an occupational hazard. The Holy Spirit is so actively involved in our lives that we can take his presence for granted. As they say, familiarity breeds contempt. Just as we take breathing for granted, we can take the Holy Spirit for granted simply because we constantly depend on him. Like the cane that soon feels like an extension of the blind man’s own body, we too easily begin to think of the Holy Spirit as an extension of ourselves. Yet the Spirit is at the center of the action in the divine drama from Genesis 1:2 all the way to Revelation 22:17. The Spirit’s work is as essential as the Father’s and the Son’s, yet the Spirit’s work is always directed to the person and work of Christ. In fact, the efficacy of the Holy Spirit’s mission is measured by the extent to which we are focused on Christ. The Holy Spirit is the person of the Trinity who brings the work of the Father, in the Son, to completion. In everything that the Triune God performs, this perfecting work is characteristic of the Spirit. In Rediscovering the Holy Spirit, author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton introduces readers to the neglected person of the Holy Spirit, showing that the work of God’s Spirit is far more ordinary and common than we realize. Horton argues that we need to take a step back every now and again to focus on the Spirit himself—his person and work—in order to recognize him as someone other than Jesus or ourselves, much less something in creation. Through this contemplation we can gain a fresh dependence on the Holy Spirit in every area of our lives.

In the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
Author: Thomas K. Johnson
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725294362
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
Our six authors from four continents representing several branches of Evangelicalism are united in affirming the classical Christian understanding of God as Trinity as crucial for knowing God, understanding the world, and serving God honestly. Their essays lead up to a compilation of classical creeds regarding this foundational proclamation. Thomas K. Johnson: “The Trinity is a matter of knowing God in his complexity, totally different from us in our singularity yet radically similar in having personality in his image, then letting this knowledge of God become the pattern of a renewed Christian mind.” Brian Edgar: “This presentation of the consummate dimensions of the Trinity . . . tells us that the life of God as Trinity is something in which we participate rather than something to be intellectually comprehended.” J. Scott Horrell: “The suggestion, humbly submitted, is especially for a missional Trinitarian worldview—not missional as from one culture to another, but missional as each body of believers seeks to engage and express Trinitarian faith within their own culture.” William P. Atkinson: “As the Father’s kenotic ‘leadership’ of the Trinity thereby exalts the Son and the Spirit, so too we can expect that the sort of servant-leadership that answers Jesus’ high-priestly prayer will lift those who are being led.” Pavel Hošek: “The Enlightenment reductionist rationalism in theology is going through a serious crisis, and the relativistic postmodern alternatives do not provide any firm epistemological basis for responsible theological thinking. I suggest that the trinitarian intellectual framework which Comenius and Lewis tried to develop offers a promising and inspiring way forward for Christian theologians faithful to the orthodox teachings of the church who are struggling with the intellectual challenges of contemporary culture.” Tersur Aben: “The Trinity is the heart of God’s self-disclosure to and involvement with humans on earth. . . . The mission of the church is thus to proclaim the gospel of salvation and the restoration of humans back to God, which the Son accomplished on Calvary and the Holy Spirit applies to believers on Pentecost.”

THOUGHT PROVOCKING! "In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Have you ever wondered what the Holy Covenant Name of our Creator actually is? After all He did create you. Isn't it about time you found out? Like most of us believers, we say the words during weddings and baptism's, and funerals and communion services. We all say "In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit"; but Have you ever noticed that they leave without SAYING the actual NAME of the Father? Have you ever noticed that at the funeral? How about the Name of the Son? Was it mentioned at the last wedding you attended? The Holy Covenant Name of the Holy Spirit; was it uttered at the last Baptism you attended? Our Father in heaven, Our Creator; What is His actual Name? Is His Name "God"? Is it "Lord"? What is REALLY the ACTUAL Holy Covenant Name of our Father in heaven? What is the Name of the Son? After all; he did die for you. Is it "Jesus"? Was it "Christ"? Is it "Hossanah"? How about "King of kings," or "Lord of lords"? The Holy Spirit has a Name, do you know what it is? After we uncover the facts together in this book; it will change the way that you thought about modern christianity forever! This book is a memorial to the Name of the Father, and to the Name of the Son, and to the Name of the Holy Spirit! This book will SHOCK you!

A History of the Popes
Author: John W. O'Malley, SJ
Publisher: Government Institutes
ISBN: 1580512291
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
A History of the Popes tells the story of the oldest living institution in the Western world—the papacy. From its origins in Saint Peter, Jesus' chief disciple, through Pope Benedict XVI today, the popes have been key players in virtually all of the great dramas of the western world in the last two thousand years. Acclaimed church historian John W. O'Malley's engaging narrative examines the 265 individuals who have claimed to be Peter's successors. Rather than describe each pope one by one, the book focuses on the popes that shaped pivotal moments in both church and world history. The author does not shy away from controversies in the church, and includes legends like Pope Joan and a comprehensive list of popes and antipopes to help readers get a full picture of the papacy. This simultaneously reverent yet critical book will appeal to readers interested in both religion and history as it chronicles the saints and sinners who have led the Roman Catholic Church over the past 2000 years. The author draws from his popular audio CD lecture series on the topic, 2,000 Years of Papal History, available through Now You Know Media (www.nowyouknowmedia.com).
