In this master work of the historian's art, Spence creates a history of intimate detail and grand scale. We enter the fevered dream world of Hong Xiuquan as he meets his Heavenly family; we see the torments awaiting earthly sinners in King Uan Luo's hell; we feel the anxieties of Westerners living circumscribed lives on the edges of a china they do not understand. Hong's movement ignites the volatile Chinese situation, causing the Taiping uprising, a massive millennial movement that, in its violent rise and fall between 1845 and 1864, cost at least twenty million Chinese their lives and Spence captures the result on a breathtaking canvas of clashing armies, daring strategic thrusts, and protracted, deadly sieges. It is a sotry of historical power woth striking resonances today. ; 9-1/2" Tall; 400 pages ., W. W. Norton & Company, U.S.: Berkley Z2690, 1972. Square and solid with light wear on covers.

It is noticeable that the Gospel passages correspond to our Prayer-Book Gospels. Each verse is on the same model: a quatrain of fact: a quatrain of lesson s a triplet of prayer or praise. CHRISTMAS NIGHT St. Luke ii. 1-14 JESUS was born on Christmas night, And laid in manger bare: Hell's devils trembled with affright, Heaven's angels sang in air. May He our help, O God of Love, That flesh-veil'd Saviour be! His Manhood pure our healing prove Now and eternally! Heaven let God's glory fill, Let peace earth's tumults still, God's people find good-will! 4th SUNDAY AFTER EPIPHANY St. Matthew viii., 23-27 fS OD'S Son on the ship was riding, He, storm to stillness chiding, Straight made the voyage safe.

"While revival may be for a season, the Kingdom of God is "unshakeable and never-ending." The Supernatural Skyline unpacks revival, then proposes God's greater plan of continuing Kingdom encounters. Full of supernatural experiences and practical expressions of Christ living in and working through His people today, The Supernatural Skyline will expand your vision of the Kingdom to include exciting new spiritual possibilities. Written for thinking Christians who want church life to be meaningful, relevant, and culturally engaging, The Supernatural Skyline contends that the church needs to accept the "keys to the Kingdom" and use those keys to unlock doors currently closed to Christ and His purpose.

Rudolf Bultmann (1884-1976) was a German theologian and professor of New Testament at the University of Marburg. He also wrote books such as The History of the Synoptic Tradition, Jesus and the Word, Presence of Eternity, etc. His 1941 essay "New Testament and Mythology" famously begins, "The cosmology of the New Testament is essentially mythical in character. The world is viewed as a three-storied structure, with the earth in the centre, the heaven above, and the underworld beneath. Heaven is the abode of God and celestial beings--the angels. The underworld is hell, the place of torment. Even the earth is more than the scene of natural, everyday events ... It is the scene of the supernatural activity of God and his angels on the one hand, and of Satan and his demons on the other. These supernatural forces intervene in the course of nature and in all that men think and will and do. Miracles are by no means rare... (The) end will come very soon, and will take the form of a cosmic catastrophe. It will be inaugurated by the `woes' of the last time. Then the Judge will come from heaven, the dead will rise, the last judgment will take place, and men will enter into eternal salvation or damnation." He then asks, "Can Christian preaching expect modern man to accept the mythical view of the world as true? To do so would be both senseless and impossible. It would be senseless, because there is nothing specifically Christian in the mythical view of the world as such. It is simply the cosmology of a pre-scientific age." He argues that "An Existentialist interpretation is the only solution," and outlines a program for "demythologizing the New Testament." His essay has five critical appraisals (including one by Helmut Thielicke), followed by responses by Bultmann. In the essay, "Bultmann replies to his critics," he states, "The Bible not only shows me, like other historical documents, a possible way of understanding my own existence, a way which I am free to accept or reject: more than that, it assumes the shape of a word which addresses me personally." He adds, "Our radical attempt to demythologize the New Testament is in fact a perfect parallel to St. Paul's and Luther's doctrine of justification by faith alone apart from the works of the Law.", Harper & Row: Torchbooks [Cloister Library], 1961., Cincinnati, OH, U.S.A.: St. Anthony Messenger , 1949.

'Life- giver, source of warmth and new growth, and lantern of the world--all people on earth since the dawn of time have praised the sun. Whether referred to as solar Ameratsu, Apollo or Ra, the sun is revered as the mystical force that created us and the provider that grants us eternal gifts of light and heat, divine knowledge and spiritual wisdom. Gathered here are the most beautiful words ever spoken in honor of the awesome star at the center of our days. Prayers and song, poems and proverbs both ancient and modern--the words of mystics, poets, saints, and scientists raised in praise of the sun. Copernicus and Dylan Thomas, Rumi and St. Francis of Assisi, Emily Dickinson, and ancient Celtic and Native American prayers: all celebrate both the world and the mystical sun that brings us wisdom, knowledge and insight. Together with a Sun Calendar of solar movements and festivals, a glossary of the world's sun gods, and drawings of sun symbols, their voices are the world's hymn to its parent and creator, the golden sun.'--from the publisher., Blackwell Publishers Ltd, Oxford, 1999. First Edition. Paperback. Near Fine/N/A. white titles spine; "Immanuel Kant is often referred to as the 'philosopher of Protestantism' because he provides a model for mediating successfully between a modern scientific world-view and theism. This radical new reading of Kant's religious thought suggests that he is in fact more accurately read as a precursor to nineteenth-century atheism than to liberal Protestant theology. Michalson locates major themes in Kant's philosophy that are more continuous with nineteenth-century atheism than with constructive theology. The 'problem of God' in Kant turns out to be the problem of retaining authentic references to God in light of the 'self-inventing' character of Kant's theory of human freedom. The book explores several ways in which this problem comes to light in Kant's philosophy, including an extended examination of Kant's own moral proof for the existence of God. Finally, Michalson suggests that, in his effort to develop a theory of human freedom consistent with his Enlightenment ideals, Kant produced a philosophical vision that ultimately absorbs heaven into earth. In addition to providing an alternative perspective on Kant's religious thought, this book raises serious questions about the idea of theological 'mediation' which attempts to accommodate both intellectual autonomy and divine transcendence. The book will appeal to students and scholars in philosophy, religious studies, and theology with an interest in Kant, the development of modern theology or the debate over 'modernity' and its proper definition"; title & contents pages with a short preface are followed by, including notes, bibliography & index - 196 pages.

Bob and Penny are eleven years older than when they wrote their first story. The Lord has blessed them abundantly during that time. "God gives us an impossible task to fulfill, then sends Heavenly Angels and earthly one to make it happen. One of them is Mother Angelica - a light in the darkness. If ever I believed in Angels, and God's Mercy and sense of humor, I do now!" You have asked for the twelve years that have passed, since Bob and Penny wrote the heart-rending story of their life, in 1988. Rather than reprint "We Came Back to Jesus," they have written an entirely new book, incorporating the important events of the years included in their first book, into their new autobiography. They have added the powerful twelve years' Journeys of Faith that the Lord has led them on, since then, to bring about His Will in their lives and in the life of the Church. Learn about their Book Ministry, how the Television and Radio Ministry came to be, and their Lecture Series Ministry. Read how the most exciting new Apostolate was given to them, the answer to their eleven years of Wandering in the Desert, The Holy Family Mission. Highlights from this must read book!

Publisher Marketing: Ancient Greece: A place where the gods hold mortal life cheap, mere playthings to amuse, delight, and abuse at their will. But those puny mortals are not wholly devoid of power and at the core of their fabulous city-states lies the Labyrinth, where they can shape the powers of the heavens to their own design. When Theseus entered the Labyrinth and came away with the prize of freedom and his beloved Adrianne, Mistress of the Labyrinth, his future seemed assured... Until he abandoned her for the unforgivable sin of bearing him only a daughter, and the world seemed to change. From that day forward, all the Labyrinths in the ancient world started to decay. It slowly became clear that power was fading from the city-states. Was it the natural decline that comes to all cultures or was it because the power of the Labyrinth had been corrupted by a woman spurned? A hundred years pass--Troy has fallen and the Trojans are a scattered and humbled people. The warrior Brutus is of the line of kings and gods. He wears the golden kingship bands of Troy proudly--but they are his only mementos of a former glory, for he is a man without a country and is left little else but pride and a memory of the latent power that he could wield if but given a chance. When he receives a god-sent vision of a distant shore where he can rebuild the ancient kingdom, he will move heaven and earth to reach his destiny. Ever eastward he is drawn, to a lovely and mystical green land that offers him a haven--and a dream of power and conquest. Nothing will deter him... not even the entreaties of the young princess whom he took as his wife and bedded against her will. First her hatred--and now her love--torment and bind him. She is the only one who realizes the danger he is stepping into, and she will do anything to save him... and his son, whom she carries in her womb. For in the mists of Albion there lies a woman of power--a woman who has used her siren call to cloud Brutus's mind and has her own reasons for luring the warrior to these lush shores.... She is the long-descended granddaughter of Adrianne, and she has in her heart a hatred that has been passed down for generations. Her plans for Brutus will enact a revenge that could destroy the gods themselves. s20If Brutus makes the journey successfully, it will be the next step in the Game of the Labyrinth and might start a complicated contest of wills that could span centuries....

In this master work of the historian's art, Spence creates a history of intimate detail and grand scale. We enter the fevered dream world of Hong Xiuquan as he meets his Heavenly family; we see the torments awaiting earthly sinners in King Uan Luo's hell; we feel the anxieties of Westerners living circumscribed lives on the edges of a china they do not understand. Hong's movement ignites the volatile Chinese situation, causing the Taiping uprising, a massive millennial movement that, in its violent rise and fall between 1845 and 1864, cost at least twenty million Chinese their lives and Spence captures the result on a breathtaking canvas of clashing armies, daring strategic thrusts, and protracted, deadly sieges. It is a sotry of historical power woth striking resonances today. ; 9-1/2" Tall; 400 pages ., W. W. Norton & Company, U.S.: Berkley Z2690, 1972. Square and solid with light wear on covers.

Full of supernatural experiences and practical expressions of Christ living in and working through His people today, The Supernatural Skyline will expand your vision of the Kingdom to include exciting new spiritual possibilities. Written for thinking Christians who want church life to be meaningful, relevant, and culturally engaging, The Supernatural Skyline contends that the church needs to accept the "keys to the Kingdom" and use those keys to unlock doors currently closed to Christ and His purpose.

Rudolf Bultmann (1884-1976) was a German theologian and professor of New Testament at the University of Marburg. He also wrote books such as The History of the Synoptic Tradition, Jesus and the Word, Presence of Eternity, etc. His 1941 essay "New Testament and Mythology" famously begins, "The cosmology of the New Testament is essentially mythical in character. The world is viewed as a three-storied structure, with the earth in the centre, the heaven above, and the underworld beneath. Heaven is the abode of God and celestial beings--the angels. The underworld is hell, the place of torment. Even the earth is more than the scene of natural, everyday events ... It is the scene of the supernatural activity of God and his angels on the one hand, and of Satan and his demons on the other. These supernatural forces intervene in the course of nature and in all that men think and will and do. Miracles are by no means rare... (The) end will come very soon, and will take the form of a cosmic catastrophe. It will be inaugurated by the `woes' of the last time. Then the Judge will come from heaven, the dead will rise, the last judgment will take place, and men will enter into eternal salvation or damnation." He then asks, "Can Christian preaching expect modern man to accept the mythical view of the world as true? To do so would be both senseless and impossible. It would be senseless, because there is nothing specifically Christian in the mythical view of the world as such. It is simply the cosmology of a pre-scientific age." He argues that "An Existentialist interpretation is the only solution," and outlines a program for "demythologizing the New Testament." His essay has five critical appraisals (including one by Helmut Thielicke), followed by responses by Bultmann. In the essay, "Bultmann replies to his critics," he states, "The Bible not only shows me, like other historical documents, a possible way of understanding my own existence, a way which I am free to accept or reject: more than that, it assumes the shape of a word which addresses me personally." He adds, "Our radical attempt to demythologize the New Testament is in fact a perfect parallel to St. Paul's and Luther's doctrine of justification by faith alone apart from the works of the Law.", Harper & Row: Torchbooks [Cloister Library], 1961., Cincinnati, OH, U.S.A.: St. Anthony Messenger , 1949.

'Life- giver, source of warmth and new growth, and lantern of the world--all people on earth since the dawn of time have praised the sun. Whether referred to as solar Ameratsu, Apollo or Ra, the sun is revered as the mystical force that created us and the provider that grants us eternal gifts of light and heat, divine knowledge and spiritual wisdom. Gathered here are the most beautiful words ever spoken in honor of the awesome star at the center of our days. Prayers and song, poems and proverbs both ancient and modern--the words of mystics, poets, saints, and scientists raised in praise of the sun. Copernicus and Dylan Thomas, Rumi and St. Francis of Assisi, Emily Dickinson, and ancient Celtic and Native American prayers: all celebrate both the world and the mystical sun that brings us wisdom, knowledge and insight. Together with a Sun Calendar of solar movements and festivals, a glossary of the world's sun gods, and drawings of sun symbols, their voices are the world's hymn to its parent and creator, the golden sun.'--from the publisher., Blackwell Publishers Ltd, Oxford, 1999. First Edition. Paperback. Near Fine/N/A. white titles spine; "Immanuel Kant is often referred to as the 'philosopher of Protestantism' because he provides a model for mediating successfully between a modern scientific world-view and theism. This radical new reading of Kant's religious thought suggests that he is in fact more accurately read as a precursor to nineteenth-century atheism than to liberal Protestant theology. Michalson locates major themes in Kant's philosophy that are more continuous with nineteenth-century atheism than with constructive theology. The 'problem of God' in Kant turns out to be the problem of retaining authentic references to God in light of the 'self-inventing' character of Kant's theory of human freedom. The book explores several ways in which this problem comes to light in Kant's philosophy, including an extended examination of Kant's own moral proof for the existence of God. Finally, Michalson suggests that, in his effort to develop a theory of human freedom consistent with his Enlightenment ideals, Kant produced a philosophical vision that ultimately absorbs heaven into earth. In addition to providing an alternative perspective on Kant's religious thought, this book raises serious questions about the idea of theological 'mediation' which attempts to accommodate both intellectual autonomy and divine transcendence. The book will appeal to students and scholars in philosophy, religious studies, and theology with an interest in Kant, the development of modern theology or the debate over 'modernity' and its proper definition"; title & contents pages with a short preface are followed by, including notes, bibliography & index - 196 pages.

Bob and Penny are eleven years older than when they wrote their first story. The Lord has blessed them abundantly during that time. "God gives us an impossible task to fulfill, then sends Heavenly Angels and earthly one to make it happen. One of them is Mother Angelica - a light in the darkness. If ever I believed in Angels, and God's Mercy and sense of humor, I do now!" You have asked for the twelve years that have passed, since Bob and Penny wrote the heart-rending story of their life, in 1988. Rather than reprint "We Came Back to Jesus," they have written an entirely new book, incorporating the important events of the years included in their first book, into their new autobiography. They have added the powerful twelve years' Journeys of Faith that the Lord has led them on, since then, to bring about His Will in their lives and in the life of the Church.

When he receives a god-sent vision of a distant shore where he can rebuild the ancient kingdom, he will move heaven and earth to reach his destiny.Ever eastward he is drawn, to a lovely and mystical green land that offers him a haven--and a dream of power and conquest. Nothing will deter him... not even the entreaties of the young princess whom he took as his wife and bedded against her will. First her hatred--and now her love--torment and bind him. She is the only one who realizes the danger he is stepping into, and she will do anything to save him... and his son, whom she carries in her womb.For in the mists of Albion there lies a woman of power--a woman who has used her siren call to cloud Brutus's mind and has her own reasons for luring the warrior to these lush shores....She is the long-descended granddaughter of Adrianne, and she has in her heart a hatred that has been passed down for generations. Her plans for Brutus will enact a revenge that could destroy the gods themselves.s20If Brutus makes the journey successfully, it will be the next step in the Game of the Labyrinth and might start a complicated contest of wills that could span centuries....
