Bold Faith A Closer Look at the Five Key Ideas of Charismatic Christianity【電子書籍】[ Ben Pugh ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Bold Faith A Closer Look at the Five Key Ideas of Charismatic Christianity【電子書籍】[ Ben Pugh ]

<p>Bill Johnson, Joyce Meyer, Heidi Baker. The fame of these names is evidence enough that, though the controversies are less intense, the Charismatic Movement is alive and well today. It continues to attract thousands of adherents who find its vision of a supernatural lifestyle uniquely compelling. Now, for the first time, all that is most theologically innovative about the movement is synthesized into five distinct and original ideas. These five brand new theologies have been created, not by theologians, but by practitioners who believed their concepts were inspired by the Spirit: Inner Healing, Shepherding, Word of Faith, Spiritual Warfare, and Signs and Wonders. Plenty of studies have been written by Pentecostal scholars about Pentecostal theology, but these tend to group the very distinct approaches of Charismatics together with Classical Pentecostals. Bold Faith aims to analyze and evaluate the ways in which practitioners within independent Charismatic networks, especially in their Anglo-American expressions, have responded to the challenges of secular modernity.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>On 24 June 2016, the world woke to news that Britain had voted to leave the European Union. The vote had not been expected by the Establishment, and the reaction was cataclysmic.</p> <p>British voters did not just change the future of the UK, but they have also hit plans to impose a global governance structure on the world. This is the story of what's about to come:</p> <p> </p> <p>The story of human history has always been one of power and control.<br> From Alexander the Great through the massive Roman Empire, and even Adolf Hitler's global imperial plans, leaders have repeatedly lunged at the opportunity to take control of as much of the planet as they could hold by force.<br> They say that those who don't learn from the mistakes of history are condemned to repeat them. A new generation of intelligent totalitariacrats have no intention of repeating past errors.<br> Using state of the art technology, and state of the art bureaucracy, the new totalitariacrats have realised that if they wrap people up in enough red tape, fuelled by social manipulation and carefully engineered crises, they can seize control incrementally.<br> In this must read book, investigative journalist and #1 bestselling author Ian Wishart reveals just how close they now are to achieving their goal of a new, globalist empire, and how they've 'educated' the public to not just accept it, but beg for it.<br> This is not a battle between Left and Right.

Look Up, Madison! A Walking Tour of Madison, Wisconsin【電子書籍】[ Doug Gelbert ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Look Up, Madison! A Walking Tour of Madison, Wisconsin【電子書籍】[ Doug Gelbert ]

<p>There is no better way to see America than on foot. And there is no better way to appreciate what you are looking at than with a walking tour. Whether you are preparing for a road trip or just out to look at your own town in a new way, a downloadable walking tour is ready to explore when you are.</p> <p>Each walking tour describes historical and architectural landmarks and provides pictures to help out when those pesky street addresses are missing. Every tour also includes a quick primer on identifying architectural styles seen on American streets.</p> <p>James Duane Doty was appointed a federal judge for the newly created northern and western Michigan Territory (today's Wisconsin and Upper Peninsula) in 1823 when he was just 23 years old. Doty was replaced as judge in 1832 and after that stood for election to represent western Michigan Territory as a delegate in Congress. He lost and turned his attention to land speculation, gobbling up thousands of acres in the district.</p> <p>In 1836 when Wisconsin Territory was created, Doty hoped to be appointed territorial governor but President Andrew Jackson gave the post to Henry Dodge, a longtime political rival of Doty. Unable to lead the new territory, Doty settled on the next best thing - getting the new territorial capital located on his land. He lobbied hard, filling legislators with grand plans of railroads and canals for his city that existed only in a few sketches on paper. It worked. In 1836 an isthmus on the Four Lakes of the Yahar River was declared the permanent capital and named after the fourth President of the United States, James Madison.</p> <p>James Doty would go on to win the seat in Congress that eluded him and become the second territorial governor. He worked on the Constitutional Convention that resulted in Wisconsin statehood in 1848 and was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Wisconsin's 3rd district. He retired to an island in the Fox River but called back into government service by Abraham Lincoln to govern the Utah Territory where he died in office in 1865.</p> <p>Meanwhile the town that he had founded, despite grumblings about relocation, made the transition to state capital in 1848 and the University of Wisconsin was established here at the same time. Even so, the thickets on the isthmus remained so dense the village of Madison and its 1,672 residents were classified as an "inhabited forest." But with the reliable economic engines of government and education firmly in place that was not going to be the way of the world for long. The first train arrived in 1854 and the streets were lit with gas a year later. By 1860 the population had climbed over 6,000 and hasn't stopped since.</p> <p>Madison's growth has not been a boon for lovers of old buildings. There has always been money available to tear down the old and put up the new in the name of progress. Nonetheless there are still heritage buildings from the 19th century in downtown Madison where the explorer is never more than seven blocks from the lake. But our search for these souvenir structures will start with one that isn't quite that old, having replace its predecessor that burned in 1904...</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A Layman's Look at The Prison Epistles Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon【電子書籍】[ Reginald A. Kemp Sr ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】A Layman's Look at The Prison Epistles Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon【電子書籍】[ Reginald A. Kemp Sr ]

<p>The Prison Epistles were written during Paul’s imprisonment in Rome about 62-63 A.D. Each of these epistles were studied independently as material for teaching adult Sunday school classes. Each is word-by-word study of the text with a definition of its meaning derived from Bible dictionaries and commentaries. In effect, these are inductive studies: what does the text say, what does it mean and how is it to be applied to one’s life. I was doing a review of Paul’s three great missionary trips when I realized he had made at least four such trips and perhaps five. His fourth trip included the two years he spent in Roman confinement and his preparation of the epistles covered by this study. We have no biblical record of a possible fifth missionary trip, but tradition tells us that Paul was released in Rome in 63 A.D. and traveled widely visiting the churches he had helped found and perhaps even traveled to Spain. The introduction to this publication is a review of the details of this trip, the people he encountered, the public personalities he was privileged to witness to including kings, governors, and the elite of Rome’s military. It details the places visited, the hardships encountered and the impact of this saint’s witness for Christ.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Look with your Eyes and Tell the World The Unreported North Korea【電子書籍】[ Roy Calley ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Look with your Eyes and Tell the World The Unreported North Korea【電子書籍】[ Roy Calley ]

<p>North Korea is the country with the highest number of military and paramilitary personnel in the world (nine and a half million). International organisations have declared that human rights violations there have no parallel in the modern world. It is estimated that 10,000 people die in North Korean prison camps every year. How did this come about? And what is life really like for the country's 26 million citizens? As a journalist who has visited the country and talked to the people on many occasions, Roy Calley is in a unique position to pull aside the veil to reveal the reality of life there. He explains how the nation changed virtually overnight from a Buddhist country to one embracing the 'Juche' theory of total selfreliance after independence from Japan. He also analyses the central importance of 'victory' in the Korean War (1950?53) to how the North Koreans - both those in absolute power and the people - view themselves. Some of the author's observations of everyday life come as a shock: in Pyonyang, for example, we find very little poverty. This is one of the most modern cities in the world, but it is completely devoid of any type of commercialism. The people genuinely adore the Kim dynasty. There is no possibility of self-advancement - but the concept means nothing to the ordinary citizen. To come to terms with the world's latest nuclear power we need to understand how she works. Roy Calley has gone inside to bring back a genuine report about one of the world’s least understood countries.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

But That's Ridiculous! A Provocative Look at Human Error【電子書籍】[ Philip Holt ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】But That's Ridiculous! A Provocative Look at Human Error【電子書籍】[ Philip Holt ]

<p>This book is intended for people who like to <em>think, discuss, argue</em>. Its theme is human error. Unfortunately this is ever-present; it occurs throughout our history, in all areas.</p> <p>The errors targeted here are quite 'ordinary'. They are ones that can occur to thoughtful people through reading the news, watching TV, going to work, discussion with friends and colleagues, and generally just pondering. The topics discussed range from everyday things like sport, education and transport, to a few more serious subjects like religion and the moral law. Readers will almost certainly have had similar (and no doubt similarly critical) thoughts to the author on some if not all of these matters.</p> <p>Quite often the stance is deliberately controversial, provocative ? thinking, or arguing, 'outside the box'. But ? as the title implies ? an attempt is always made to show that the normal, standard way of looking at things is flawed, irrational. Readers will not always agree with the line taken, but it is hoped that considering the arguments will be challenging and enjoyable.</p> <p>One point should perhaps be made: it needs to be realised that the 'sufferers', so to speak, from error, are normally unaware of their condition! If they were aware of it, they would no doubt correct their false beliefs. No one, presumably, wants to be deluded. But beliefs ? certainly long-established ones ? have remarkable <em>staying power</em>, and this means that it can be very difficult, both to alter one's own views, and to convince other people that they are mistaken.</p> <p>An <em>open mind</em> is therefore essential, if the arguments in the book are to be assessed fairly.</p> <p>Readers will be glad to hear that <em>no specialised knowledge is required</em>, and there are no irritating references to other books which are probably unfamiliar. Technical terms are avoided throughout.</p> <p>Dr Philip Holt has taught philosophy, mathematics and physics, and is the recipient of the Joad Prize for philosophy. He is the author of a recent book, <em>God: The Case Against</em>, published by Sussex Academic Press.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Look Up, Cheyenne! A Walking Tour of Cheyenne, Wyoming【電子書籍】[ Doug Gelbert ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Look Up, Cheyenne! A Walking Tour of Cheyenne, Wyoming【電子書籍】[ Doug Gelbert ]

<p>There is no better way to see America than on foot. And there is no better way to appreciate what you are looking at than with a walking tour. Whether you are preparing for a road trip or just out to look at your own town in a new way, a downloadable walking tour is ready to explore when you are.</p> <p>Each walking tour describes historical and architectural landmarks and provides pictures to help out when those pesky street addresses are missing. Every tour also includes a quick primer on identifying architectural styles seen on American streets.</p> <p>In 1867 General Grenville Dodge, chief engineer for the Union Pacific Railroad, selected a favorite camping spot on the Crow Creek to be a terminal town for the railroad's transcontinental line building west from Omaha. When word got out about the decision so many land speculators and entrepreneurs - and gamblers and other assorted boomtown ne'er-do-wells - descended on "Crow Creek Crossing" that there was a town of 4,000 people waiting for the railroad when the track reached the settlement in November of 1867. The appearance of a town where the gradual slope of the prairie meets the steepening grades of the Laramie Mountains where none existed mere weeks before earned Cheyenne the sobriquet of "Magic City of the Plains."</p> <p>When the Wyoming Territory was established less than two years later Cheyenne was the largest town in the new territory and was designated the capital, over the grumblings of other more established towns. When Wyoming became a state in 1890, Cheyenne transitioned to the permanent capital, becoming one of America's least centralized capital cities.</p> <p>The thing about magic is that it not only makes things appear but disappear as well. And the boom times for the Magic City of the Plains, ushered in by the railroad and vast fortunes made by cattle barons, disappeared and re-appeared with regularity in Cheyenne's early days. The effect of these economic swings is reflected on the face of Cheyenne even today. There remain downtown opulent buildings from the 1880s and the first decades of the 1900s when Cheyenne's location on the Lincoln Highway, America's first transcontinental roadway, revitalized the town. The Lincoln Highway, Route 30, ran right down 16th Street. When the Depression skidded Cheyenne's boom years to a halt in the 1930s few could afford to tear down these historic buildings and replace them with new stock. Often the two-and three-story brick buildings received a modernized facelift instead. Decades later some have been restored to their original facades, leaving an historical imprint on the Cheyenne streetscape.</p> <p>Our walking tour of the only capital Wyoming has ever known will begin in the shadow of its tallest building, one of only ten gold domed statehouses in the United States...</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>There is no better way to see America than on foot. And there is no better way to appreciate what you are looking at than with a walking tour. Whether you are preparing for a road trip or just out to look at your own town in a new way, a downloadable walking tour is ready to explore when you are.</p> <p>Each walking tour describes historical and architectural landmarks and provides pictures to help out when those pesky street addresses are missing. Every tour also includes a quick primer on identifying architectural styles seen on American streets.</p> <p>Founded by Joseph Smith in 1830, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the largest church to originate on American soil, boasting a worldwide membership of over 14 million. in its tumultuous early years Smith intended to establish a New Jerusalem called Zion but pursuit of that goal was undermined in Ohio and Missouri and Illinois. As conflict escalated in illinois, Smith had predicted the church would need to go West and be established in the tops of the Rocky Mountains. In 1844 Smith and his brother Hyrum were hauled from a jail by a mob in Carthage, Illinois, where they had surrendered on charges of treason in relation to the destruction of an unfriendly press, and murdered by multiple musket blasts.</p> <p>Brigham Young ascended to the leadership of the church at the age of 46 and led the Mormon pioneers west as Smith had advised, first to Nebraska and then on to Utah where 143 men, three women and two children stopped and settled several miles east of the Great Salt Lake on July 24, 1847. Young set up a system of communal crop sharing and guided the settlement spiritually and politically as thousands of Mormon pioneers came to Salt Lake. But it was not to be an insular Mormon town for long.</p> <p>The California Gold Rush brought many fortune-seekers through Salt Lake City which was becoming a trading post and crossroads. The railroads were crossing the territory as well and soon there would be rich mineral strikes in the nearby mountains. Most intrusive of all was the federal government that battled the Mormons, sometimes with soldiers but mostly through the courts, over the Mormon practice of polygamy. Tensions between the church and non-Mormons would not ease until the early 1900s.</p> <p>By that time Salt Lake City was the dominant city of the Intermountain West, enriched by the mines and the railroads and the banks the wealth financed. Unlike many cities that annexed surrounding towns as they expanded through the 20th century, Salt Lake City watched its suburbs incorporate as separate towns and actually lost population. Downtown withered as the metropolitan area exploded. It was not until the 1990s that the exodus was arrested.</p> <p>Our walking tour will explore that historic core that grew on orderly axes from Temple Square, the ten acres where Brigham Young proclaimed to "build a temple to our God" and that is where we will begin, amidst gardens and fountains...</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Look Up, Canton! A Walking Tour of Canton, Ohio【電子書籍】[ Doug Gelbert ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Look Up, Canton! A Walking Tour of Canton, Ohio【電子書籍】[ Doug Gelbert ]

<p>There is no better way to see America than on foot. And there is no better way to appreciate what you are looking at than with a walking tour. Whether you are preparing for a road trip or just out to look at your own town in a new way, a downloadable walking tour is ready to explore when you are.</p> <p>Each walking tour describes historical and architectural landmarks and provides pictures to help out when those pesky street addresses are missing. Every tour also includes a quick primer on identifying architectural styles seen on American streets.</p> <p>Today Canton is best known to the outside world as the home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But contemporary histories of Canton in the mid-1900s made no mention of Jim Thorpe and the Canton Bulldogs and an organizational meeting in the downtown Hupmobile dealership in 1920 that spawned what was to become the National Football League. Before there was an NFL Canton was known for harvesting tools and ball bearings and bricks and William McKinley, 25th President of the United States.</p> <p>Bezaleel wells laid out the town in the flood plain where three branches of the Nimshillen Creek come together in 1805. Wells did future typesetters a favor and passed on calling the new settlement "Bezaleelville" and instead named the village after the town in China as a memorial to a trader named John O'Donnell, whom Wells admired. The nascent town was dealt an early blow when the great Ohio and Erie Canal was routed eight miles to the west through Massillon in the 1820s. But the canal age was destined to be short-lived and Canton's lack of water access to the Great Lakes and the Ohio River was rendered meaningless by the coming of the railroad.</p> <p>Canton began making things in the early going - in the days before the Civil War as many as six kinds of reapers were manufactured in Stark County. Its industrial heritage placed the town in good stead when northeastern Ohio became a bustling center of the Steel Age. Town workers became skilled shapers of steel products, a reputation that convinced Henry H. Timken, a carriage manufacturer from St. Louis to build a factory in Canton to produce his new tapered roller bearings in 1898. Canton had its largest employer and became the world's biggest manufacturer of roller bearings.</p> <p>As its manufacturing economy eroded Canton became an enthusiastic player in urban renewal. Our walking tour of the downtown core will pass many blocks that have been cleared on our quest for landmarks but we will start in a space that was always planned to be open...</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Church in the Present Tense A Candid Look at What's Emerging【電子書籍】[ Scot McKnight ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Church in the Present Tense A Candid Look at What's Emerging【電子書籍】[ Scot McKnight ]

<p>Much has been written by practitioners advocating the emerging church phenomenon, but confusion about the nature and beliefs of those who identify with the emerging church still exists. Now that the movement has aged a bit, the time has come for a more rigorous, scholarly analysis. Here four influential authors, each an expert in his field, discuss important cultural, theological, philosophical, and biblical underpinnings and implications of the emerging church movement. Their sympathetic yet critical assessment helps readers better understand the roots of the movement and the impact that it has had and is having on wider traditions. The book includes a 60-minute companion DVD that provides a background introduction to the emerging church and video clips of alternative worship services. The DVD also contains interviews with emerging church leaders and observers, including Brian McLaren and Rowan Williams.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Changing Middle East A New Look at Regional Dynamics【電子書籍】

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Changing Middle East A New Look at Regional Dynamics【電子書籍】

<p>In the era of globalization, change is the order of the day, but the conventional view of the Arab Middle East is that of a rigid and even stagnant region. This book counters the static perception and focuses instead on regional dynamics. After first discussing types of change, identifying catalysts, and tracing the evolution of the region over the last sixty years, the international team of contributors go on to evaluate the development of Arab civil society; examine the opportunities and challenges facing the Arab media; link the debates concerning Arab political thought to the evolving regional and international context; look at the transformation of armed Islamist movements into deradicalized factions; assess how and to what extent women’s empowerment is breaking down patriarchy; and analyze the rise of non-state actors such as Hizbollah and Hamas that rival central political authority. The book concludes with data tables that provide an easy quantitative guide to some aspects of these regional dynamics. Contributors: Rasha A. Abdulla, Ola AbouZeid, Omar Ashour, Julie C. Herrick, Amani Kandil, Hazem Kandil, Bahgat Korany.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Black Madonna A Womanist Look at Mary of Nazareth【電子書籍】[ Courtney Hall Lee ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Black Madonna A Womanist Look at Mary of Nazareth【電子書籍】[ Courtney Hall Lee ]

<p>The figure of the Virgin Mary comes loaded with baggage and preconceptions. She is usually depicted as the perfect, obedient, and highly esteemed woman, much like the Victorian notion of the "angel in the house." For many black women, nothing could be more inaccessible. This book considers the relationship between African American women and Mary of Nazareth. After examining the history of black American motherhood during slavery and beyond, this book then gives an overview of the existing views of Mary in both the church and the academy. Lee then brings African American women and Mary together, creating a womanist Mariology by using womanist biblical and theological interpretation, as well as considering black motherhood during the age of "Black Lives Matter."</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
