- Maurice Nicoll and the Kingdom of Heaven
1.052,95 kr. Maurice Nicoll (1884-1963) Harley Street analytical psychologist trained by CG Jung, and disciple of 'western gurus' GI Gurdjieff and PD Ouspensky, became in later years a practitioner and teacher of mystical spirituality. This study traces through Nicoll's published writings, and through the recently rediscovered Dream Diaries, his spiritual journey from his early rejection of Christianity to his finding 'what really mattered' in a re-embrace of his natal religion, but this in a form he saw as far 'truer' than what he had earlier rejected. Nicoll learned through practising Gurdjieff's 'Work', his system of spiritual training, that the Kingdom of Heaven is neither a post-mortem experience nor a millennial restoration of Christ's Kingdom, but a state of psychological or spiritual development, the fulfilment or perfection of the individual life achievable in this life; the Gospels, neither ethical discourse nor historical biography of a god-man describe this spiritual state and how to achieve it. Nicoll's books The New Man and The Mark, works of biblical exegesis on psychological lines, explain how this message, esoterically encoded in the Gospel narrative, may be interpreted.

648,95 kr. We encounter this God in a land "given to the hands of man", in the face of a poor person and a little one, in the silence and tears, in the joy and hope of those who never tire of sowing seeds... because the God of Jesus is found "moving from the sinful and suffering world and not from a religious height". Becoming men and women is the true Christian vocation and the Church can only be at the service of this call. Every time it gives in to the temptation of power and success, of ritualism, of clericalism, of an asceticism that distances one from the life of the world, forgets his service and his mission; forget who she really is.

333,95 kr. Francis of Assisi at a young age met the disease, and more or less serious, the disease was a dramatic event for both him and his family. In fact, illness transforms the existence of the individual by modifying family and social relationships, upsets the identity and enters a state of crisis, certainly with the outside world, but above all with one's own body.I would like in this second part of the book, through the experience of Francesco's illness, to try to look at the disease with a new perspective, which is not established by chance, but must be seen as a defense mechanism, and an attempt by the body to overcome conditions that he does not feel suitable, so that he can defend himself, and then live in good health.

519,95 kr. Universal salvation only happens through the name "Jesus" (Acts 3:12). For the obvious reasons, only Christians can call on the name "Jesus" to be saved. What about people of other religions who do not know the name "Jesus"? Universal salvation is through the mediator. To save all of humanity, the divine person manifested himself in history, Jesus of Nazareth. People of other religions seeking salvation invoke the name of the mediator they know. Do they have to wait for salvation until they invoke the name "Jesus"? Panikkar analyses the question in the categories of person, name, myth, symbol and history. Without relativising the belief that the name "Jesus" stands for universal salvation, Panikkar explains the value of the other names of the one mediator to whom the various religions refer. These considerations have implications for the question of salvation not only for people of different religions but also for all ETIs throughout the universe. It may take millions of light years for the name ¿Jesus¿ to reach the ETIs.

658,95 kr. The mysteries of the kingdom of GOD have their place in the journey of the Christian faith; but, very often neglected because of the spirit of religion and the fact that several ravening wolves have monopolized them to use them in the wrong direction.JESUS CHRIST was very balanced in his ministry; on the one hand he used the word, and on the other, the works which were only the tangible and palpable manifestation of the preached word also associated with the mysteries.The word, the works as well as the mysteries brought balance to his vocation; and the advantage of the mysteries is especially felt in cases of deliverance giving one a head start.The mysteries are there within your reach; so enjoy them.

Today's business world demands that even churches, NGOs and Faith Based Organisation must be bankable and be based on sound business principles. Unless these structures are founded and operated within the principles of business, they will not survive. For the church to strive and survive the storm, the institutions must be founded on a proper foundation and principles. The church must have a constitution and business plans to expand their growth and development. This book narrates the case of the Fountain Family Bible Church, how this ministry was born and travailed through leaps and bounds. In-spite of the challenges encountered on the way, the Lord has been good.

278,95 kr. Christian formation is best described as an interactive process by which God the Father conforms believers into the image of Jesus through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit by overseeing the development of the whole person in various life dimensions for the sake of others. As Redeemer, Jesus the Son provides the impetus and model as the perfect image of God into which followers are to be confirmed. The Holy Spirit provides the divine love and power that causes the process to take place and advance. The apostle Paul refers to this ongoing transformation process: ¿And all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit¿ (2 Cor 3:18).

443,95 kr. This research work is a historical-theological analysis on the reasons and causes of church schism among the Chins in Myanmar. The schism started in 1930s and become worse since 1978. It is estimated that there are already more than 70 denominations and sects among the Chins even before the celebration of Centennial Jubilee of the arrival of the Gospel in the Chin Land, which was held in Haka in 1999. It is sad to see the way a divisive denominationalism plays such an important role among the churches and occupies the hearts of the people. Five main possible facts have been pointed out which caused schism in Chin Christianity, such as hlimsangism (a charismatic movement), evangelical movements and fundamentalism, politico-economic factors, leadership role and socio-cultural reason.

298,95 kr. Singing was an important part of Christian worship. But were their songs accompanied with mechanical instruments or unaccompanied with mechanical instruments whenever they gathered for worship? This work combines the teachings of the New Testament and the voice of history to examine music in the worship of the church. The New Testament is very clear as to how Christians are to worship God in songs. The command is to sing. And the practice of the early church was congregational singing. The introduction of instrumental music and dancing in the churches are not the teachings of the New Testament. Similarly, as a matter of historical perspective, without exception, every commentator and church historian agree that the early church fulfilled her obligation to sing praises to God without the use of instrumental music. Instrumental music was added to Christians¿ worship after several years of the church¿s existence when men decided not to remain within the teachings of God.

278,95 kr. The origin of African Christianity has links to the Church of Ethiopia. Ethiopia had contacts with the Jews way before Jesus Christ was born. One of the contacts is found in the encounter between King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba (1Kings 10). Another is when Jesus was born also, he sought asylum with his parents in Egypt to escape the plot of King Herod to kill him as a baby (Matthew 2: 13-14). The Coptic Church in Egypt values this event and argues that the Good News came first to them through the preaching of the apostle Mark who is believed to have been martyred in Alexandria. Some historians hold that Mark was in Cyrene where he converted many Jews and Greeks before he went to Alexandria in Egypt-though there are no sufficient evidences to prove this.

278,95 kr. A commonly accepted definition of marriage is a formal union, a social and legal contract between two individuals that unite their lives legally, economically, and emotionally. When a believing husband and wife institute God¿s principles of marriage, a solid, healthy marriage results. The biblical/ Christian marriage involves oneness between them and pictures the oneness of Christ with His Church. The primary purpose of marriage we can say: The primary reason marriage is significant to God is that it is part of His ordained plan to provide the world with a picture of His love for men and women. Marriage becomes the means for married couples to demonstrate their love for God. Rische writes, ¿The home is a lighthouse with the lamp of God on the table and the light of Christ in the window, to guide those who wander in darkness.¿ The great teacher Evans also says, ¿Home should be a place of mutual responsibility and respect, of encouragement and cooperation and counsel, of integrity, of willingness to work, of discipline when necessary, with the tempering quality of love added to it, with a sense of belonging, and with someone to talk to.¿

533,95 kr. Christology in a multi-religious context can help realise a Christology in the intergalactic consciousness of ETI civilisations. Israel-centred ¿salvation¿ turned to the world, now to the ETIs in the millions of galaxies. Pope Francis envisions baptising aliens as the door of salvation is open to them, too. If the ¿big bang¿ was the creative power of God, the apocalypse is not a galactic supermassive destructive black hole. It is a super-bright halo attracting the universe to enjoy the cosmic Sabbath with God. Panikkar's inter-religious context: the mystery CHRIST, whose symbol is the historical Jesus, will help to represent Jesus in galactic consciousness, to have a galactic Christophany that goes beyond the ecumenical Christophany that Panikkar had envisioned. In Irenaeus' Christ, the cosmotheandric principle as envisaged at creation, the protology and teleology of the universe meet. Panikkar's cosmotheandric mystery was to restore the cosmological dimension of the CHRIST. A symbol contains reality: Jesus is the epiphany, the symbol of the cosmotheandric mystery. A Christology for intergalactic consciousness will enrich a Christology in a multi-religious context.

328,95 kr. The question of the fairness of God and the presence of evil and its ravages especially on those who are perceived to be good is confounding. One of the Bible books that tackles this subject is the book of Habakkuk. The prophetic book presents a gripping dialogue between Habakkuk and God on the question of God¿s justice. The prophet approaches God with a rare audacity in the Old Testament. God¿s response on the other hand leaves the prophet spellbound, resigning to more trust in God. The prophetic poetic nature of the work invites an application of a literary analysis in order to arrive at the prophet¿s intent. The Hebrew literature rich in its expressions, features and structure affords an opportunity of study into this gripping work of the prophet. The alternate structural arrangement of the book reveals an answer to the question of God¿s justice, which is existentially faith in God and eschatologically a visitation by God. The prophetic work of Habakkuk is a refreshing and reassuring piece in the world of injustice in which common question is; is it fair? I dedicate this book to all who have felt the brunt of evil and have lingering questions about the justice of God.
