Book Description
This book offers a complete study of the doctrine of the cross in the writings of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux. Until now, this theologically rich topic has not received the attention it calls for. Anthony Lane analyzes and expounds the doctrine of the cross based on the nearly seven hundred references to the cross in Bernard's writings. Among the important topics the author explores are: * Bernard's letter against Abelard, a work of central significance for this topic * the "usward" aspect of Christ's work, its subjective influence on us, and the "Godward" aspect, the way in which the cross puts us right with God * objections to this teaching posed by Abelard and others * ways in which Bernard applies his doctrine of the cross * a concluding assessment of Bernard's teaching on the topic

Book Description
This generation will be forever known as the generation that won the war against COVID-19. Nurses and the entire health-care team will be forever known as heroes who saved the world. —Renee Thompson A Global Wake-Up Call to Change and Redeem Lives explores the many challenges of life today. Do you feel alone in the universe? Does nothing seem to satisfy your restless heart? As revealed in this timely book, there is a reason for hope. Together we can learn to avoid causes for hate, work to heal racial upheaval, and help to calm political firestorms, all by uniting rather than dividing, building rather than destroying. All things of this earth are incapable to fill the void within. Only things with eternal value will stand. People are gripped by fear and devastation everywhere in the world. The foundations of the faith are assailed, and secularism has entered our learning institutions, places of work, even our churches. Spiritual and moral values have been attacked by a culture and media that preys on our children. In this book, you will find wise, inspiring guidance and motivation to help families reach their highest potential, physically, intellectually, and psychologically. The exemplary praxis contained in it will point to a higher plan and purpose for something larger than ourselves worthy of our presence on this mother earth.

Book Description
This monograph represents a critical juncture in Thomas studies since it dispels the belief that the Gospel of Thomas originates from gnostic traditions. Rather, Jewish mystical and Hermetic origins are proposed and examined. Following this analysis, the anthropogony and soteriology of Thomas are discussed. The Thomasites taught that they were the elect children of the Father, originating from the Light. The human, however, became unworthy of these luminous beginnings and was separated from the divine when Adam sinned. Now he must purify himself by leading an encratite lifestyle. He is to ascend into heaven, seeking a visio dei which will transform him into his original immortal state and grant him citizenship in the Kingdom.
