Opis

Jesus, who was born in Judea approximately 2000 years ago, suggested that we all seek the kingdom of God which Jesus tells us is where there is no hunger, no adversities, no hardships, no sorrow, but forgiveness, peace and joy. This book explores Jesus' way to the kingdom of God, including the directions that Jesus offers to help us to reach the kingdom of God; the problems that Jesus tells us we will encounter trying to reach the kingdom of God; and finally, the strategies that Jesus offers to help us to overcome these problems and to successfully follow his directions. Quotations are new translations from the Greek texts available today. All key words are linked to the original Greek words together with their meanings and nuances, allowing readers to explore the full richness of the original Greek words and to choose the meanings and nuances that they think better suit particular quotations. This book is part of the series 'Ways of the World' in which Gary explores different ways of the world that have helped to shape his mind - including religious, philosophical and secular ways. Books in this series currently include: 'Exploring the Way of Epictetus', 'Exploring the Way of Epicurus', 'Exploring the Way of the Buddha', 'Exploring the Way of Lao Tzu', and this book 'Exploring the Way of Jesus'.
