Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A London University philosophy graduate, Yosef-a Kurd-goes through an acrimonious divorce from his Western, feminist wife. A variant of Kafka's Joseph K., Joseph A. (Yosef Abu-Zwili) feels trapped in the maze of Western feminist web-an innocent sheep inhabiting a world populated by feminist wolves. 'Why sheep?' he asks. 'Ba.ba.ba.' he bleats, 'because I feel like one. Ba .ba.ba.because I think I am one.' While in a London hospital ward, he writes his confessions, memoirs, reveries, and musings-'butterflies of the mind to be preserved as personal cameos'-for the benefit of the ignorant male. Hope for recuperation is lost in his dread of the ultimate knock on his door and imminent death. Terrified, he asks some philosophical questions: why has God created good and evil, male and female, sheep and wolves? 'Ba.ba.ba.' he bleats, as he hears a knock on his door and makes himself ready to be led out for a ceremonious execution by a Feminist High Priestess. A novel of ideas, literary allusions, and linguistic associations, Confessions of a Sheep for Slaughter aims to enlighten and entertain by exposing and satirizing the follies, absurdities, and little crimes of Feminists and Feminism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jeremiah grew up in a time of peace and died in exile. He lived to see the temple burned to the ground, Jerusalem destroyed, and his people marched into a foreign land. A reluctant prophet, Jeremiah preached the renewal of the covenant, teaching in parables like Jesus. His God was a God of hope, promise, power, and the will to make the people of Israel a holy people. The book of Baruch deals with the challenges faced by the Jews of the Diaspora who never returned to their homeland. Out of their exile, they became the people of "the book" gathering in their synagogues, studying the law and the prophets, and producing their own inspired sacred literature.

This book was released on 2022-02-10 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when a five-century tradition of Christian pacifism no longer needs Jesus to support nonviolence? Why does secularity cause this dilemma for Mennonites in their theology of peace? Layton Boyd Friesen offers an ancient theology and spirituality of incarnation as the church's response to the non-resistance of Christ. He explores three key aspects of von Balthasar's Christology to help Mennonite peace theology regain its momentum in the secular age with a contemplative union with Christ. This volume argues that the way to regain a Christ-formed pacifism within secularity is to contemplate and enter the mystery unveiled in the Chalcedonian Definition of Christ, as interpreted by Hans Urs von Balthasar. In this mystery, the believer is drawn into real-time participation in Christ's encounter with the secular world.

This book was released on 2023-08-07 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is misunderstood, neglected, ignored, redacted, deleted, and hated! The doctrine of Hell is naturally unpalatable to the unconverted but has become equally unpalatable to much of the visible church, including many who deem themselves to be evangelical. Jesus is still regarded as the one who saves, but it is forgotten what he saves from! It is a doctrine so unwanted and offensive that it is cut out of church teaching, like an editorial cut-out of a swear word in the media. Yet, not that long ago, it was universally accepted dogma, reflecting the emphatic manner in which the Lord Jesus addressed the subject, giving more attention to Hell than to any other subject! Concise yet comprehensive, this book inspires a new generation of Christians to embrace and proclaim the doctrine in its fulness, in imitation of Jesus and his gospel. Extremely thought provoking, it is a must-read for all seminary students and prospective pastors. Equally suitable as an evangelistic tool, the unconverted are repeatedly entreated to take refuge in Jesus and escape the most terrible destination in all of creation. Do not delete this four-letter word from your church life!
