The Purposes That Drive Our Lives Are God Given
Author: Edwin P. Nhliziyo Sr.
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 149073094X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 219
Book Description
This book makes the argument that humankind was placed here on earth to multiply, fill the world and take dominion over all of God's other creations. A purpose driven life will necessarily align with these purposes. A purpose driven life is one that is fulfilling God's purposes. How well we do this is the primary reason why some people have become very successful while others have failed. Our spiritual side reflects our God connections and for the Christian it begins when one is born again. While our purposes and the things that drive us may need adjustment after we are born again, they do not change significantly. They all have one common denominator and that is fulfilling our responsibilities as parents and doing that in obedience to God. With this in mind, it should not be difficult to answer the question "what on earth am I doing here?" What drives our lives? It is the need to provide for our children, for adulthood comes with the obligation to find a life partner and begin multiplying and this is universal.

Our Purpose Together
Author: Christopher Alan Anderson
Publisher: First Edition Design Pub.
ISBN: 1622871464
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 15
Book Description
Jesus came to bring the eternal down to earth. Did he fail or did we fail? In the article, the author suggests the center of love was not correctly defined and, as such, the eternal remains separated from us. The author provides us with a procreant center that allows for us to embrace our eternal life together. Author Bio: Christopher Alan Anderson (1950 - ) received the basis of his education from the University of Science and Philosophy, Swannanoa, Waynesboro, Virginia. He resides in the transcendental/romantic tradition, that vein of spiritual creativity of the philosopher and poet. His quest has been to define and express an eternal romantic reality from which a man and a woman could together stand in their difference and create a living universe of procreative love. Mr. Anderson began these writings in 1971. The first writings were published in 1985. On a personal note, when Mr. Anderson was asked to describe the writings and what he felt their message was he responded, "Spiritual procreation. Mankind has yet to distinguish the two sexes on the spiritual level. In this failure lies the root of our problems and why we cannot yet touch the eternal together. The message of man and woman balance brings each of us together in love with our eternal other half right now." Keywords: Man and Woman Balance, Relationships, Procreation, Spirituality, Love, Metaphysics, Eternal, Creation, Sexuality, & Soul.

Our Purpose Is Love
Author: David N. Field
Publisher: Abingdon Press
ISBN: 1501868683
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
We live in a time of great division in the world, and too often we find this polarization mirrored in the church. People sitting in the same pew, working in the same office, and living on the same street find themselves at odds with one another politically and theologically on a variety of issues. Conflict seems to reign supreme. As Christians, we know we are supposed to love one another, but even that mandate has come to mean different things to different people. What does it mean to love God and neighbor today—in both the world and the church—and can this be the answer to the conflict that divides and polarizes us? In Our Purpose Is Love, author David Field answers this question with a compelling “Yes!” as he challenges us to recognize and reclaim love as the center of our identity and purpose as the church. Field presents a Wesleyan vision of the church as the embodiment of God’s love in the world and explores the implications of this vision for our life together. In this vision, the church is where we become creatures of love, learning to love God and neighbor ever more completely and authentically through the means of God’s grace. As a result, we bear witness to the world by reflecting God’s love more and more perfectly in the way we treat others and order our common life. With a special focus on the importance of unity for the church’s witness, Field invites us to consider the ways in which embodying God’s love can and should influence how we live as individuals and as communities of faith, calling us to reclaim and recommit to love as the center of who we are.
