Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1879 edition. Excerpt: ... THE REGENERATION. BY REV. CHAS. K. IMBRIE, D.D., OF JERSEY CITY. I Am to speak of "The Regeneration " or The Restitution of all things" foretold in the Scripture. It is a great subject; weighty and most interesting. It comprehends the grand result to which all else is but preliminary, the outcome of the promise made in Eden, that the ruin caused by Satan and sin should be fully repaired. It is also a very difficult subject. To prove clearly from God's word a single step in the process toward its accomplishment, may be done with comparative ease. To show conclusively from the Scripture that the personal and visible coming of the Lord is plainly to precede and introduce the Millennial reign and "the Regeneration " of all things, is a most important step and opens indeed the door. But behind that door there yet remains the glory beyond--the finished purpose of God in redemption, so far as it is portrayed in the Scripture. And to exhibit this finished redemption, as it shines in the bright lustre of "the world to come whereof we are to speak," and when all is, at last, made new, needs painstaking indeed. One must speak with carefulness and modesty. Above all does it need this care, where long cherished prejudgments are to be met and overcome, and men are, if possible, to be brought back from an interpretation which is supposed to exalt this glory by substituting a dim, undefined, though professedly spiritual, meaning for the Scripture portrait of this scene, to the acceptance of the plain and natural sense of God's own words. The anticipation of some sort of blissful change to come upon this sad and sinful earth after its long continued storms and sorrows is, in one form or another, very general. Even those who despise God's word and rely on...

Book Description
Is there biblical evidence for a thousand-year earthly kingdom (the Millennium) ruled by Christ before the fulfillment of the new heaven and new earth? Revelation chapter 20 seems to suggest so, but few books of the Bible are so difficult to interpret. And a discussion of the Millennium branches out into many other theological questions about the end times (eschatology): Are these the last days? What must happen before Jesus returns? What part does the church play? This Counterpoints volume compares three views of the Millennium: Premillennial: Christ will come again before this kingdom is established. Postmillennial: our present age represents that kingdom and that the church is and must move toward the fulfillment of this kingdom. Amillennial: a future Millennium is not a literal kingdom, and when Christ returns, he will usher in an immediate new heaven and new earth. Robert B. Strimple, Kenneth L. Gentry Jr., and Craig A. Blaising offer their perspectives, giving their exegetical reasoning. Each of them then responds to the views held by their peers in a respectful and informative setting, making it easy for you to compare their beliefs and gain a better understanding of how this aspect of Christianity's great hope--the return of Jesus--is understood by the church. The Counterpoints series presents a comparison and critique of scholarly views on topics important to Christians that are both fair-minded and respectful of the biblical text. Each volume is a one-stop reference that allows readers to evaluate the different positions on a specific issue and form their own, educated opinion.

Book Description
This book raises the question of why Korean people, and Korean Protestant Christians in particular, pay so little attention (in theory or practice) to ecological issues. The author argues that there is an important connection (or elective affinity) between this lack of attention and the otherworldly eschatology that is so dominant within Korean Protestant Christianity. Dispensational premillennialism, originally imported by American missionaries, resonated with traditional religious beliefs in Korea and soon came to dominate much of Korean Protestantism. This book argues that this, of all forms of millennialism, is the most damaging to ecological concerns. It also suggests how Korean churches may effectively respond to the ecological challenge.

Book Description
The modern Pentecostal movement has been studied many times in relation to its theological and sociological background. Previous studies, however, have not focused on the disctinctive doctrine of that movement: the teaching that speaking in tongues is the initial physical evidence of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. Given that Pentecostals believe that this is a work of grace, such a doctrine seems unlikely to arise, as physical evidence is seldom required or looked for in the life of a believer in relation to any other area of grace. This prompts the question of why such evidence was even being looked for. And yet, within a very short time of its proposal, acceptance of this doctrine was so widespread as to become the hallmark of the movement. Insistence on such a doctrine led to many being asked to leave their denominations, and thus to the founding of other denominations. This book attempts to answer the question: "Why?" And specifically: "Why Tongues?"
