On the Edge of Eternity

ISBN: 0190678895

Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
It is commonly assumed that the creation story of Genesis and its chronology were the only narratives openly available in medieval and early modern Europe and that the discovery of geological time in the eighteenth century came as a momentous breakthrough that shook the faith in the historical accuracy of the Bible. Historians of science, mainstream geologists, and Young Earth creationists alike all share the assumption that the notion of an ancient Earth was highly heterodox in the pre-modern era. The old age of the world is regarded as the offspring of a secularized science. In this book, Ivano Dal Prete radically revises the commonplace history of deep time in Western culture. He argues that the chronology of the Bible always coexisted with alternative approaches that placed the origin of the Earth into a far, undetermined (or even eternal) past. From the late Middle Ages, these notions spread freely not only in universities and among the learned, but even in popular works of meteorology, geology, literature, and art that made them easily accessible to a vernacular and scientifically illiterate public. Religious authorities did not regard these notions as particularly problematic, let alone heretical. Neither the authors nor their numerous readers thought that holding such views was incompatible with their Christian faith. While the appeal of theories centered on the biblical Flood and on a young Earth gained popularity over the course of the seventeenth century, their more secular alternatives remained vital and debated. Enlightenment thinkers, however, created a myth of a Christian tradition that uniformly rejected the antiquity of the world, as opposed to a new secular science ready to welcome it. Largely unchallenged for almost three centuries, that account solidified over time into a still dominant truism. Based on a wealth of mostly unexplored sources, On the Edge of Eternity offers an original and nuanced account of the history of deep time that illuminates the relationship between the history of science and Christianity in the medieval and early modern periods, with lasting implications for Western society.

Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Religious devotees may believe, hope and pray. Agnostics may think any introspection is a waste of time. Others may constantly wonder and search for reason. In this striving it may seem that we are sometimes prisoners of existence on our Planet Earth for there are some serious constraints to our being. As we do life on Planet Earth we can have our dreams of something better and an eventual release from our bondage. With the passage of time we may relish the joy and wonder of a human life and we may certainly learn about love and perhaps, learn how to love.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
Book 1 of The Kindrily series. Leave it to Maryah Woodsen to break the one rule that will screw up eternity: Never erase your memories. Before entering this life, Maryah did the unthinkable—she erased. Now, at seventeen years old, she’s clueless that her new adoptive family has known her for centuries, that they are perpetually reincarnated souls, and that they have supernatural abilities. Oh, and she's supposed to love (not despise) Nathan, the green-eyed daredevil who saved her life. Nathan is convinced his family’s plan to spark Maryah's memory is hopeless, but his love for her is undying. After spending (and remembering) so many lifetimes together, being around an empty version of his soulmate is heart shattering. He hates acting like a stalker, but has no choice because the evil outcast who murdered Maryah in their last lifetime is still after her. While Maryah’s hunter inches closer, she and Nathan make assumptions and hide secrets that rip them further apart. Maryah has to believe in the magic within her, Nathan must have faith in the power of their love, and both need to grasp onto the truth before they lose each other forever—and discover just how lonely eternity can be. Keywords: young adult, YA, teen, romance, YA romance, paranormal, fantasy, supernatural, series, saga, reincarnation, soul mates, love story, metaphysical, magic, superpowers, Kindrily, free, freebie

GOD Speaks in Letters of Eternity
Author: Anthony A Eddy
Publisher: Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency
ISBN: 1950860612
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
The future of man is unveiling within the will of God, within the close attention of his God, within the future edicts of The Lord— awaiting their time on Earth, within the panorama before the eyes and ears of man, within the future scope of man able and willing to consent. The future of man is dependent on his knowledge, is a measure of his wisdom, is the status of his freewill history, is his willingness to change when a journey is partially completed. The future of man is to receive a letter from God, is to receive the fare as set upon the table of The Lord, is to receive the love and honour due a compliant child of God, is to receive the welcome home extended to the prodigal sons of man. The future of man is within his destiny of choice, is within the family of God, is within the Garden of God, is within the creation of God. The coming letters to man are as in My fifth book of the End-time Psalms of God, are as in the time frame of disclosures, are as in the acceptance of the multitudes, are as in the preparedness of My people awaiting My return. The coming letters are about to hit the bookstalls of man, are about to become the centres of attention, are about to preside over discussions of a destiny, are about to resolve the significance of lightness from the darkness.

Passion for Nothing
Author: Peter Kline
Publisher: Fortress Press
ISBN: 1506432530
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
Passion for Nothing offers a reading of Kierkegaard as an apophatic author. As it functions in this book, “apophasis” is a flexible term inclusive of both “negative theology” and “deconstruction.” One of the main points of this volume is that Kierkegaard’s authorship opens pathways between these two resonate but often contentiously related terrains. The main contention of this book is that Kierkegaard’s apophaticism is an ethical-religious difficulty, one that concerns itself with the “whylessness” of existence. This is a theme that Kierkegaard inherits from the philosophical and theological traditions stemming from Meister Eckhart. Additionally, the forms of Kierkegaard’s writing are irreducibly apophatic—animated by a passion to communicate what cannot be said. The book examines Kierkegaard’s apophaticism with reference to five themes: indirect communication, God, faith, hope, and love. Across each of these themes, the aim is to lend voice to “the unruly energy of the unsayable” and, in doing so, let Kierkegaard’s theological, spiritual, and philosophical provocation remain a living one for us today.

Book Description
incarnaTe - How We Know That Jesus is God and Man/Top 10 Reasons seeks to show that Jesus of Nazareth can be understood only as the human locus of the Divine. Today not just skeptics but many theologians have rejected the traditional affirmation that Jesus is God and man. Yet neither group is aware of the infrastructure of hard facts that testifies to the truth of divine incarnation. The insight that Jesus is God incarnate imposes itself on the human mind once it considers the various phenomena explored here. Once the dots are connected, we cannot but see the picture. But we cannot see the picture if we ignore the relevant dots. You have the see the trees to see the forest! All applicable evidence - the world religions, world history, Jewish history, the experience of Christians through the centuries, the Gospel narratives, the practice of the first Christian communities, the logical coherence of saying that a certain Person is both divine and human - must be submitted and studied as one whole.
