Royal Priesthood
ISBN: 9781615290727 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Perhaps the most neglected idea in the New Testament is the declaration that every Christian is a member of the Royal Priesthood that God has created in Christ. Indeed, scripture calls us both "kings" and "priests." As kings, we can and should speak with royal authority both in opposition to everything that belongs to the powers of darkness, and in support of everything that lies in the Father's purpose. And as priests we have unfettered access to the throne of God, a constant right to approach the Lord freely and openly, to speak boldly, and to expect miracles of answered prayer. These two...

Armsbearing and the Clergy in the History and Canon Law of Western Christianity
ISBN: 9781843838654 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the first millennium the Christian Church forbade its clergy from bearing arms. In the mid-eleventh century the ban was reiterated many times at the highest levels: all participants in the battle of Hastings, for example, who had drawn blood were required to do public penance. Yet over the next two hundred years the canon law of the Latin Church changed significantly: the pope and bishops came to authorize and direct wars; military-religious orders, beginning with the Templars, emerged to defend the faithful and the Faith; and individual clerics were allowed to bear arms for defensive...

Timeless Truth in the Hands of History: A Short History of System in Theology
ISBN: 9780227680063 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What is the purpose of theology for the Church? Systematic theology provides an inroad into this question by offering both a method for doing theology and an explanation for the purpose of that method. However, the very notion of 'system' has its basis in a specific understanding of knowledge grounded in rational demonstration of facts, and it is easy to assume that this tradition in theology is primarily a product of Enlightenment thinking. Timeless Truth in the Hands of History addresses the historical debate over when systematic theology began. Much of the debate has centered on the...

Lee Strobel, author, The Case for Christ, The Case for Faith, and The Case for a Creator "This extremely readable book brilliantly builds the case for Christianity from the question of truth all the way to the inspiration of the Bible.

And the Angels Were Silent: The Final Week of Jesus
ISBN: 9780849947513 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. You can tell a lot about a person by the way he dies. In the last week of his life, Jesus deliberately sets his face toward Jerusalem--and certain death. This is no ordinary week. Even the angels are silent as they ponder the final days of Jesus Christ. This is no ordinary walk. Jesus doesn't chatter. He doesn't pause. He is on his final journey. He walks determinedly to the holy city, angrily into the temple, wearily into Gethsemane, painfully up the Via Dolorosa. And powerfully out of the vacated tomb. Master storyteller and best-selling author... You can tell a lot about a person by the way he dies. In the last week of his life, Jesus deliberately sets his face toward ... |

ISBN: 9788362858385 / Polski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Po sukcesie „Anny Kareniny” (1877) resztę życia najsłynniejszy rosyjski pisarz i myśliciel Lew Tołstoj poświęcił przede wszystkim na dociekania filozoficzno-religijne. W 1886 roku (kiedy ukazała się jego znana nowela Śmierć Iwana Ilicza) zaczął pisać „O życiu”, w pewnym sensie kontynuację rozważań ze „Spowiedzi” (1879; Wydawnictwo Aletheia, Warszawa 2011). I „Spowiedź”, i „O życiu” z powodu cerkiewnej cenzury spotkał ten sam los: zakaz rozpowszechniania. „O życiu” ukazało się po rosyjsku i w przekładach za granicą, a w Rosji dopiero w 1913...

Summoning the Gods
ISBN: 9781935965213 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Neo-paganism is the attempt to revive the polytheistic religions of old Europe. But how? Can one just invent or reinvent an authentic, living faith? Or are modern neo-pagans just engaged in elaborate role-playing games? In SUMMONING THE GODS, Collin Cleary argues that the gods have not died or forsaken us so much as we have died to or forsaken them. Modern civilization-including much of modern neo-paganism-springs from a mindset that closes man off to the divine and traps us in a world of our own creations. Drawing upon sources from Taoism to Heidegger, Collin Cleary describes how we can...
