Showing titles in Fundamentalism

Hard hitting, funny, outrageous, and tender by turns, Secret Radio delivers a scathing assessment of the scandals, gross ignorance of Scripture, and back room deals that have been tolerated in Fundamentalism, while at the same time showing the genuine faith of many who labor for Christ and find Him faithful to His people. Told in journal format as Grace narrates her story, the book chronicles the lives of Grace and her five roommates during her senior year, from the dreamy Lilly who draws action and adventure comics to the brilliant, poker-faced Cinn, the godly Amy Carmichael and tragic ...

The Chinese New Year is certainly an interesting time of year, not just for those that celebrate it first-hand but for anyone to witness or observe as an important global phenomenon. The changing date of the holiday fluctuates from January to February on today's calendar because, as with all traditional Chinese holidays, it follows the lunar calendar. This tradition can be seen throughout parts of Asia and is not limited to just the mainland of China.

The book of Revelation is a very interesting book. With its various symbols, characters, and colorful language, it is also a very complicated book. But it is well worth studying to try to understand the future events of this world. In the pages that follow, the four main approaches that scholars have used for understanding the book of Revelation will be identified. They are the Preterist view, the Historical view, the Allegorical view, and the Futurist view. This text uses the Futurist view, which attempts to apply a literal interpretation whenever possible. This text will also identify ...

This book will attempt to discuss and defend perhaps the most difficult and most challenging parts of the scriptures by looking at the Rapture of the Church, at the Great Tribulation, and at the Second Coming of Jesus. Those are items of interest to almost every person alive. But there are also probably just as many viewpoints about those events as there are people. So this book will begin at the beginning by suggesting that the literal approach for interpreting those future events is probably superior to trying to interpret them figuratively or in some other non-literal fashion. The ...

Do we need a religious belief that is a labyrinth of lies, deceit, cheat, distortion, fabrications, fairy tales, legends, fantasies, and absurd teachings? Do we need a religion that has killed one billion people through crimes and genocides, robbery and wars, slavery and human exploitation? Do we need a religion with ‘knowledge’ that is thoroughly not comprehensible and not provable, not traceable and not reproducible? A religious and spiritual belief that is not based on and not linked with the mental (psychical-spiritual) functions and with the indispensable conditions of mastering ...

A nation once synonymous with tolerance, Indonesia, the fourth most populous country in the world, and the world's most populous Muslim country, now finds itself in the midst of a profound shift toward radical Islam. Sadanand Dhume, a Princeton-educated Indian atheist with a fondness for literary fiction and an interest in economic development, travels to Indonesia to find out how a society goes from broad inclusiveness to shrill intolerance in the space of a generation. His traveling companion is Herry Nurdi, a young Islamist who hero-worships Osama bin Laden.

The purpose of the epistle to the Hebrews is clear; it is to show the superiority of the Lord Jesus Christ to the religious system established by Moses. This is startling in its implications, because Israel’s system of worship, and all the rites and rituals that went along with it, were based not on any ideas that Moses had, but on God’s revelation to him. What the epistle to the Hebrews reveals is: Christ’s superiority to the prophets · Christ’s superiority to angels · Christ’s superiority to Moses · Christ’s superiority to Joshua · Christ’s superiority to Aaron · Christ...

The modern Christian Church is in a state of serious decline. But this was prophesied all through the New Testament. The World Christian Encyclopedia estimates there are over 40,000 denominations worldwide. Even if the truth were only 10% of that number, this would be a ludicrous situation. Many of these denominations are relatively small and localized, but others are large and widely recognized. And that number does not include quasi-Christian movements like the Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses. But the reason there are so many denominations is because there are that many belief systems. ...

In war zones witnessing widespread conflict, what makes life at all worth living? When chaos becomes a way of life in places where religion and violence intersect, what do people hold on to? If religious belief is, as Christopher Hitchens argues, the cause of wars and genocide, then is faith the cure?

Religionen werden maßgeblich durch ihre Medien geprägt – z. B. Judentum, Christentum und Islam von ihren jeweiligen Alphabeten und dem darauf basierenden Denken. Digitalisierung bedeutet daher auch, dass Kirchen und Religionen immer weniger als unabhängige Akteure erscheinen, sondern als Varianten von "Religion" insgesamt wahrgenommen werden. Gegen den Trend zur globalen Vereinheitlichung stemmen sich religiöse Fundamentalisten, die seriöse Wissenschaften, freiheitliche Gesellschaften und andere Religionen bekämpfen.

In this one-of-its-kind book by the late Alyque Padamsee, he invites us to re-examine and think afresh about some of our most deeply held beliefs, from love, marriage, terrorism, leadership, money, gender, faith to education. Let Me Hijack Your Mind is Alyque's parting gift to Indians, exhorting them to throw out the old and embrace new ways of approaching everything, which will lead them towards a more exciting and contented life—and a better society and country.

Il presente audiolibro (narrato da Antonello Macchiaroli) è stato elaborato sulla base dell'ultima edizione dell'opera pubblicata in Firenze il 1865 dalla Tipografia Claudiana con il titolo "Gesù e Gesuita" di Napoléon Roussel (15 novembre 1805-1878). L'originale del libro in argomento, ha sopravvissuto sufficientemente per non essere più protetto dai diritti di copyright che sono scaduti per diventare di pubblico dominio. "...un gesuita, con la bolla Unigenitus alla mano, divenne l`arbitro della Francia e la riempì di terrore."

The Book of Revelation is by far the most explosive prophecy of our day, and many people are now convinced that we are living in the time period that John the mystic wrote about nearly 2000 years ago. With the advent of the 21st Century, hundreds of religious cults and biblical scholars, and the major religions of Islam, Christianity and Judaism are all predicting some type of catastrophic global upheaval. However, as mankind has been reminded for centuries, no one knows the hour or the day when all of this will suddenly happen.
