Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the religious concerns of Enlightenment thinkers from Thomas Hobbes to Thomas Jefferson. Using an innovative method, the study illuminates the intellectual history of the age through interpretations of Jesus between c.1650 and c.1826. The book demonstrates the persistence of theology in modern philosophy and the projects of social reform and amelioration associated with the Enlightenment. At the core of many of these projects was a robust moral-theological realism, sometimes manifest in a natural law ethic, but always associated with Jesus and a commitment to the sovereign goodness of God. This ethical orientation in Enlightenment discourse is found in a range of different metaphysical and political identities (dualist and monist; progressive and radical) which intersect with earlier ‘heretical’ tendencies in Christian thought (Arianism, Pelagianism, and Marcionism). This intellectual matrix helped to produce the discourses of irenic toleration which are a legacy of the Enlightenment at its best.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radical Happiness is for seekers who are ready to be finders and anyone asking the question, Who am I really? Radical Happiness provides the keys to experiencing the happiness that is always present and not dependent on circumstances. This happiness doesn't come from getting what you want but from wanting what already is. It comes from realizing that who you think you are is not who you really are. This is a radical perspective! Radical Happiness describes the nature of the egoic state of consciousness, the mind's role in maintaining it, how this interferes with happiness, what awakening and enlightenment are, and how to live in this world following awakening. Exercises are included to help you apply the information and transform your experience of life--and become happier.

Book excerpt: Jesus Christ was a Zen master? In at least one version of early Christian belief, he sure sounded like one. Early Christianity was far from the gentle and unified belief system that we have been led to believe it was. In fact, in the earliest stages of its development, interpretations of the meanings of Jesus' teachings varied widely, were hotly debated, and differing views were not tolerated well at all. The Jesus narrative that eventually won out was passed on to future generations while the losers had their books burned and adherents imprisoned, tortured, or put to death. Talk about issues with freedom of religion! Luckily, an early Christian group called the "Gnostics", in seeing their beloved books burned and adherents mistreated, buried their most important works in hopes of future discovery. These works were discovered in Nag Hammadi, Egypt in 1945 and have shed quite a bit of light on an alternative and very different interpretation of Jesus' teachings--one that was widely followed in the early years of Christianity, yet more closely resembles the "enlightenment" teachings of Zen and Buddhism. The Zen-like nature of the Gnostic's Jesus is the focus of this work. "What you seek after is within you." - Dialogue of the Savior Scroll up and grab your copy today!

Book excerpt: Enlightenment means to be full of light. It means to be illuminated. It means to be aware and to understand. It means your eyes are open to the truth and you can see. It means to know the truth. Since knowledge is not the same as enlightenment, a person can acquire knowledge but not understand the acquired knowledge. Enlightenment is a step higher than knowledge acquisition. When you understand, you will effectively apply the knowledge you have, where necessary. Until you are enlightened, you are at the mercy of the devil. Until you are enlightened, you will always need deliverance in one way or the other. God can deliver you from a bondage but you are not truly free until you are enlightened in all areas of your life. The concepts expressed in this book differ from what other religions profess. They might espouse similar terminologies, just as I have, but are proposing different means to be enlightened. The concepts might appear familiar, but they are actually worlds apart in numerous ways. This book will revolutionize your Christian life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Village Enlightenment in America focuses on three nineteenth-century spiritual activists who epitomized the marriage of science and religion fostered in antebellum, pre-Darwinian America by the American Enlightenment. A theologian, writer, and apologist for the nascent Mormon movement, as well as an amateur scientist, Orson Pratt wrote Key to the Universe, or a New Theory of Its Mechanism, to establish a scientific base for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Robert Hare, an inventor and ardent convert to spiritualism, used his scientific expertise to lend credence to the spiritualist movement. Phineas Parkhurst Quimby, generally considered the initiator of the American mind-cure movement, developed an overtly religious concept of science and used it to justify his system of theology. Pratt, Hare, and Quimby all employed a potent combination of popular science and Baconianism to legitimate their new religious ideas. Using the same terms--matter, ether, magnetic force--to account for the behavior of particles, planetary rotation, and the influence of the Holy Ghost, these agents of the Enlightenment constructed complex systems intended to demonstrate a fundamental harmony between the physical and the metaphysical. Through the lives and work of these three influential men, The Village Enlightenment in America opens a window to a time when science and religion, instead of seeming fundamentally at odds with each other, appeared entirely reconcilable.
