【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 Historical Christ and the Jesus of Faith The Incarnational Narrative as History【電子書籍】[ C. Stephen Evans ]
<p>The story of Jesus of Nazareth, as recounted in the New Testament, has always been understood by the church to be historically true. It is an account of the life, death, and resurrection of a real person, whose links with history are firmly signalled in the creeds of the early church, which affirm that Jesus `suffered under Pontius Pilate'. Contemporary historical scholarship has, however, called into question the reliability of the church's version of this story, and thereby raised the question as to whether ordinary people can know its historical truth. This book argues that the historicity of the story still matters, and that its religious significance cannot be captured by the category of `non-historical myth'. The commonly drawn distinction between the Christ of faith and Jesus of history cannot be maintained. The Christ who is the object of faith must be seen as historical; the Jesus who is reconstructed by historical scholarship is always shaped by commitments of faith. A reconsideration of the Englightenment epistemologies that underlie much historical scholarship shows that historical knowledge of this story is still possible. Such knowledge can be inferential, based on historical evidence. A careful look at contemporary New Testament studies, and the philosophical and literary assumptions upon which it rests, shows that this scholarship should not undermine the confidence of lay people who believe that they can know that the church's story about Jesus is true.</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。

【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 Weary Sons of Freud【電子書籍】[ Catherine Cl?ment ]
<p><em>The Weary Sons of Freud</em> lambasts mainstream psychoanalysis for its failure to grapple with pressing political and social matters pertinent to its patients' condition. Gifted with insight and compelled by fury, Catherine Cl?ment contrasts the original, inspirational psychoanalytical work of Freud and Lacan to the obsessive imitations of their uninspired followers-the weary sons of Freud.</p> <p>The analyst's once attentive ear has become deaf to the broader questions of therapeutic practice. Clement asks whether the perspective of socialism, brought to this study by a woman who is herself an analysand, can fill the gap. She reflects on her own history, as well as on that of psychoanalysis and the French left, to show what an activist and feminist restoration of the talking cure might look like.</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>For Marc Aug?, best-selling author of <em>Non-Places</em>, the prevailing idea of "the Future" rests on our present fears of the contemporary world. It is to the future that we look for redemption and progress; but it is also where we project our personal and apocalyptic anxieties. By questioning notions of certainty, truth, and totality, Aug? finds ways to separate the future from our eternal, terrified present and liberates the mind to allow it to conceptualize our possible futures afresh.</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。

We live in an age of convenience and ease; personal butlers are back in fashion and everyone has a chauffeur on call thanks to Uber.

Now, more than ever, is the time to go for the gusto, to find your own Duckworth grit.</p> <p><strong>Tenacity, courage and the fire within:</strong> In his book <em>GUTS</em>, Bracken explains why we all need to dig deep and do soul searching to see what lights the fire within that brings forth our very best.

And, he is now on a mission to bring self empowerment to others ─ self empowerment to realize a life of grit and grace.</p> <p><strong>Grit and grace and mental strength:</strong> When we say something takes guts, we usually mean it takes courage to do it.

<p>Donald Trump, who rocketed to the top of the polls in the early GOP primary race, is an unlikely Republican front-runner: a longtime supporter of Democratic politicians with a history of taking views opposed to those of mainstream conservatives. A household name for his reality-television show and his tawdry tabloid history, he has connected with an underappreciated strain of right-wing populists by focusing his fire on a single issue: immigration.</p> <p>In this Broadside, Kevin D. Williamson takes a hard look at the Trump phenomenon and the failures of the national Republican leadership and defects in our national character that gave it life. Trump may or may not be in the race for the long haul, but in either case, Trumpism will remain a force.</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。

【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 Art of Cloning Creative Production During China’s Cultural Revolution【電子書籍】[ Pang Laikwan ]
<p>In the 1950s, a French journalist joked that the Chinese were "blue ants under the red flag," dressing identically and even moving in concert like robots. When the Cultural Revolution officially began, this uniformity seemed to extend to the mind. From the outside, China had become a monotonous world, a place of endless repetition and imitation, but a closer look reveals a range of cultural experiences, which also provided individuals with an obscure sense of freedom.</p> <p>In <em>The Art of Cloning</em>, Pang Laikwan examines this period in Chinese history when ordinary citizens read widely, traveled extensively through the country, and engaged in a range of cultural and artistic activities. The freedom they experienced, argues Pang, differs from the freedom, under Western capitalism, to express individuality through a range of consumer products. But it was far from boring and was possessed of its own kind of diversity.</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。

【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!】Philosophical Faith and the Future of Humanity【電子書籍】
<p>Karl Jaspers, who died in 1969, had a profound impact on 20th-century theology and philosophy. His central thesis called for, among other things, a de-centering of philosophy from its Eurocentric roots and a renewal of its dialogue with other traditions, especially Asian ones. This collection of essays includes unpublished work by Jaspers himself as well as testimonies to his life and career by colleagues, associates, and translators, some of who knew Jaspers personally. Readers will also find commentary and interpretation by researchers who have explored Jaspers’ work for decades, and a biographical account of Jaspers’ student Leonard Ehrlich, who handled much of Jaspers’ English translation.</p> <p>The book interrogates Jaspers’ conceptions of ‘philosophical faith’, his philosophy of communication, and the prospects for world philosophy in the future. Focusing on philosophical faith, it assesses Jaspers’ interpretations of key philosophers such as Kant, Hegel, Schelling, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, and Rosenzweig, as well as examining his personal relationships with Bultmann and Heidegger. Contributors also look at Jaspers’ philosophies of religion and history, his hypothesis of the ‘axial age’ (Achsenzeit), and his contributions to metaphysics, periechontology, and economics. Finally, chapters cover Jaspers’ philosophy of communication and world history. The latter are informed by a burgeoning interest in Kantian ‘Freiheitphilosophie’ that influenced Jaspers, as well as concerns over the future of humanity. These concerns in part account for Jaspers’ growing popularity in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Central/South America, and Asia. Also included are lucid clarifications of the difference between religious and philosophical faith, and the relevance ofcertainty, trust, and communication for a future of mankind.</p> <p>Trained as a psychiatrist, Jaspers practiced this profession before becoming a philosopher and thus had a keen insight into the workings of the human mind even as he challenged the philosophical establishment of his time. It is perhaps this depth to his background that adds to the contemporary relevance of his work.</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>This fascinating addition to the Images of America series offers a glimpse into the unique history of Dixon, Illinois, with more than 200 historic photographs. In the spring of 1830, John Dixon settled with his family near the Rock River in Northern Illinois. Dixon, Illinois, soon grew as men crossed the river here on their way to work in the mines at Galena. In 1832, the Black Hawk War brought a number of now-famous men to this remote outpost of civilization. Winfield Scott, Zachary Taylor, Robert Anderson, Abraham Lincoln, and Jefferson Davis were all here, each of them equally unconscious of future immortal honors. The act of the Illinois General Assembly creating Lee County was approved February 27, 1839, with Dixon officially becoming the county seat on May 31, 1839. Dixon was on its way to fast becoming a central point in Illinois, well known for its industry, beautiful scenery, and the enchantment of the Rock River Valley. The fascinating story of Aurora's industries is recalled through the photographs of the workers themselves - many of which have never been published. Also featured in Aurora, Illinois, is a look at a master photographer and his son, who ran the foremost studio in Aurora. An 1887 description of downtown Aurora, written by a high school student who was a contemporary, is also included in this welcome new addition to the Images of America series.</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。

These are the popular depictions of Jesus. But they aren't the complete picture.

A mission that required he sometimes raise his voice and sometimes raise a whip.</p> <p>In the much-needed message in <em>The Jesus You Can't Ignore</em>, renowned Bible teacher and best-selling author John MacArthur reintroduces the compelling and often unsettling passion of Jesus' ministry. MacArthur points to the picture of the real Jesus the world is so eager to gloss over.

<p><em>Men of the Bible</em> offers both men and women a fresh way to read and understand the Bible--through the eyes and hearts of the men whose stories unfold in its pages.</p> <p>This unique book takes a close-up look at fifty-two men in Scripture--complex flesh-and-blood characters whose strengths and weaknesses will seem strangely similar to your own. Heroes and villains, sinners and prophets, commoners and kings--their dramatic life stories provide you with a fresh perspective on the unfolding story of redemption.</p> <p>Though our culture differs vastly from theirs, the fundamental issues we face in relation to God and the world remain the same. We still reach for great dreams and selfish ambitions. We wrestle with fear and indecision, struggle with sexual temptation, and experience the ache of loneliness and the devastation of betrayal. And, like many of these men, we long to walk more closely with the God who calls us into an intimate relationship with himself and who enables us to fulfill his purpose for our lives.</p> <p><em>Men of the Bible</em> offers men and women today a unique devotional experience that combines five elements. Each week becomes a personal retreat focused on the life of a particular man:</p> <ul> <li>Monday: His Story--a narrative retelling of the biblical story</li> <li>Tuesday: A Look at the Man--focusing on the heart of the man and how his story connects with your own life</li> <li>Wednesday: His Legacy in Scripture--a Bible study on principles revealed through the life of the man</li> <li>Thursday: His Legacy of Promise--Bible promises that apply to his life and yours</li> <li>Friday: His Legacy of Prayer--praying in light of his story</li> </ul> <p>Designed for personal prayer and study or for use in small groups, <em>Men of the Bible</em> will help you make Bible reading a daily habit.

【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!】Essential Trinitarianism Schleiermacher as Trinitarian Theologian【電子書籍】[ Assistant Professor Shelli M. Poe ]
<p>Many scholars believe that Friedrich Schleiermacher relegates the doctrine of the Trinity to an appendix at the end of his magnum opus, The Christian Faith (1830/31); his alleged disregard for the Trinity is the supposed death knell for serious consideration of his work within the history of Christian thought.</p> <p>This volume argues that Schleiermacher not only calls for the doctrine's revitalization, but also makes it the centrepiece of Protestant Christianity. Following Schleiermacher's own thought experiment, Poe presents his doctrine of God in reverse order of its original presentation. Her examination centres on the Trinity, treating it as the keystone of the entire work, while analysing the divine attributes: love and wisdom, justice and holiness, eternity, omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence. When viewed from the standpoint of the conclusion, the Trinitarian shape of Schleiermacher's theology comes to the fore. What emerges is a middle way between merely economic Trinitarianism and a full-fledged development of immanent Trinitarianism, examining divine personhood and the union of the divine with humanity.</p> <p>The central thesis of this work runs boldly counter to the prevailing academic account of Schleiermacher's doctrine of the Trinity, and offers an innovative and constructive reading. Readers will be privy to a fresh look at Schleiermacher's doctrine of God and its importance for contemporary theology.</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>Contemporary research has found that memory is much more than the process for recalling information that has been learned and retained?it is a rich, nuanced process that is an important part of every human activity. This highly readable foundational text provides an overview of the theories and research on human memory from a psychological perspective. Grounded in the premise that all psychological processes depend on memory, and that memory is shaped by the functions it serves, the authors look at a wide range of memory processes and discuss the major theories that have been developed to explain how it functions.</p> <p>This book describes the major structural and functional theories that guide our understanding of memory. The authors then focus on everyday functions of memory, including memorizing things, remembering to do things (prospective memory), and recalling how to do things, such as skills, procedures, and navigation. Disorders of memory including Alzheimer's and amnesia are examined along with exceptional memory skills, such as the phenomenon of individuals with highly superior autobiographical memory. The book also addresses the intriguing and controversial topics of repressed and recovered memories, the validity of memory in courtroom testimony, and the effects of remembering traumatic events. Illustrative examples, metaphors, and humor make for a text that is engaging and entertaining, resulting in a valuable, concise introduction for students.</p> <p><strong>Key Features:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Provides a concise, easy-to-read, yet scientifically based survey of theory and current research on memory</li> <li>Grounded in the concept that memory is foundational to all psychological processes and human experience</li> <li>Covers controversial and intriguing topics including repressed and recovered memories, memory in legal testimony, amnesia, and the phenomenon of super memory</li> <li>Explores the myths and realities surrounding memory loss</li> </ul> <p><em>The Psych 101 Series</em></p> <p>Short, reader-friendly introductions to cutting-edge topics in psychology.

【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!】Sentencing Guidelines and Commissions Comparative Perspectives【電子書籍】[ Julian V. Roberts ]
<p>Since the 1970s, sentencing in many countries has evolved from a system in which courts enjoyed wide discretion to one where courts must follow or at least consider guideline recommendations. This movement towards greater structure has also led to the creation of independent bodies-sentencing commissions or councils-which now sit alongside courts of appeal and play a pivotal role in guiding courts, advising legislators, and communicating with the public. Sentencing commissions and councils perform a wide range of other functions including increasing transparency and promoting fairness, consistency, and public confidence in the courts. In <em>Sentencing Guidelines and Commissions</em>, Julian V. Roberts, Arie Freiberg, and Rhys Hester synthesize existing literature on commissions and guidelines, identify key issues and problems, and clarify the future of commissions and guidelines since the creation of the first commissions in 1980. Drawing upon almost fifty years of additional developments and accumulated research on guidelines, commissions, and councils, the authors explore the benefits of sentencing councils and commissions and sentencing guidelines. Further, the authors look back to the cumulative experience around the world since the first guidelines were created and propose a model regime for legislatures to consider. The first book on sentencing guidelines and commissions to take an international perspective, <em>Sentencing Guidelines and Commissions</em> aims to determine whether and how guidelines may solve, or at least mitigate, some of the problems of current sentencing practice.</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>This collection showcases the language of “doing” sport, emphasizing the real-time talk of players and coaches during training and games toward elucidating real-time language use and encouraging effective sporting pedagogies. While there is established work at the intersection of linguistics and sport, this book places a particular focus on real-time participation, as opposed to media reporting or post-match commentary.</p> <p>The volume is divided into two sections which look at language in action in sporting contexts, with the first part dedicated to player communication and the latter on coaches’ engagement with players, to explore such issues as team building, leadership, player guidance, and instruction through language. Examples are drawn from a wide range of sports across levels, including basketball; volleyball; Formula 1; rugby; cycling; and skiing across professional, amateur, and youth leagues. Taken together, the volume makes the case for an integrated social and linguistic perspective on language use in sport in real time to better understand its impact on players, foster more inclusive sporting pedagogies, and continue to grow sport research in interdisciplinary directions.</p> <p>This book will be of interest to students and scholars in language and communication, applied linguistics, discourse analysis, sociolinguistics, and the sociology of sport.</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。

【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!】Atrahasis and Sumerian Origins Anunnaki Origins, #8【電子書籍】[ Riddick Dawson ]
<p><em><strong>Atrahasis and Sumerian Connections</strong></em> unlocks one of the oldest and most influential origin stories in human history. Long before the Book of Genesis or the Epic of Gilgamesh, ancient Sumerian tablets told of rebellious gods, the creation of humanity from clay and divine blood, and a catastrophic flood that nearly erased the world. This book explores the Atrahasis Epic not as a myth isolated in time, but as the foundational blueprint of later religious and cultural traditions across the ancient Near East. Drawing from archaeological findings, cuneiform scholarship, and comparative mythology, it reveals how stories of divine labor, human purpose, and cosmic balance first took shape beneath the shadow of Sumer's ziggurats.</p> <p>Through a vivid and accessible narrative, readers will discover how themes from Atrahasis echo across civilizations: the clay-formed human, the divine breath of life, the burden of toil, the justice of the gods, and a flood sent to reset creation itself. This book traces the journey of these early ideas from Sumer to Akkad, Babylon, and beyond ー ultimately influencing biblical theology and the worldview of millions. <em>Atrahasis and Sumerian Connections</em> offers a powerful look into the moment humanity entered the cosmic stage, revealing that our oldest stories still shape our deepest questions about who we are, why we work, and what the gods expect of us.</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。

【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!】Blood and Politics The History of the White Nationalist Movement from the Margins to the Mainstream【電子書籍】[ Leonard Zeskind ]
<p>More than fifteen years in the making, <em>Blood and Politics</em> is the most comprehensive history to date of the white supremacist movement as it has evolved over the past three-plus decades. Leonard Zeskind draws heavily upon court documents, racist publications, and first-person reports, along with his own personal observations.<br /> An internationally recognized expert on the subject who received a MacArthur Fellowship for his work, Zeskind ties together seemingly disparate strandsーfrom neo-Nazi skinheads, to Holocaust deniers, to Christian Identity churches, to David Duke, to the militia and beyond. Among these elements, two political strategiesーmainstreaming and vanguardismーvie for dominance. Mainstreamers believe that a majority of white Christians will eventually support their cause. Vanguardists build small organizations made up of a highly dedicated cadre and plan a naked seizure of power. Zeskind shows how these factions have evolved into a normative social movement that looks like a demographic slice of white America, mostly blue-collar and working middle class, with lawyers and Ph.D.s among its leaders.<br /> When the Cold War ended, traditional conservatives helped birth a new white nationalism, most evident now among anti-immigrant organizations. With the dawn of a new millennium, they are fixated on predictions that white people will lose their majority status and become one minority among many. The book concludes with a look to the future, elucidating the growing threat these groups will pose to coming generations.</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。

【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 Young Turks' Crime against Humanity The Armenian Genocide and Ethnic Cleansing in the Ottoman Empire【電子書籍】[ Taner Ak?am ]
<p><strong>An unprecedented look at secret documents showing the deliberate nature of the Armenian genocide</strong><br /> Introducing new evidence from more than 600 secret Ottoman documents, this book demonstrates in unprecedented detail that the Armenian Genocide and the expulsion of Greeks from the late Ottoman Empire resulted from an official effort to rid the empire of its Christian subjects. Presenting these previously inaccessible documents along with expert context and analysis, Taner Ak?am's most authoritative work to date goes deep inside the bureaucratic machinery of Ottoman Turkey to show how a dying empire embraced genocide and ethnic cleansing.<br /> Although the deportation and killing of Armenians was internationally condemned in 1915 as a "crime against humanity and civilization," the Ottoman government initiated a policy of denial that is still maintained by the Turkish Republic. The case for Turkey's "official history" rests on documents from the Ottoman imperial archives, to which access has been heavily restricted until recently. It is this very source that Ak?am now uses to overturn the official narrative.<br /> The documents presented here attest to a late-Ottoman policy of Turkification, the goal of which was no less than the radical demographic transformation of Anatolia. To that end, about one-third of Anatolia's 15 million people were displaced, deported, expelled, or massacred, destroying the ethno-religious diversity of an ancient cultural crossroads of East and West, and paving the way for the Turkish Republic.<br /> By uncovering the central roles played by demographic engineering and assimilation in the Armenian Genocide, this book will fundamentally change how this crime is understood and show that physical destruction is not the only aspect of the genocidal process.</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><strong>The riveting and suspenseful account of two young FBI agents in a pursuit of a drug cartel's most fearsome leader, Miguel Trevi?o</strong></p> <p>Drugs, money, cartels: this is what FBI rookie Scott Lawson expected when he was sent to the border town of Laredo, but instead he's deskbound writing intelligence reports about the drug war. Then, one day, Lawson is asked to check out an anonymous tip: a horse was sold at an Oklahoma auction house for a record-topping price, and the buyer was Miguel Trevi?o, one of the leaders of the Zetas, Mexico's most brutal drug cartel. The source suggested that Trevi?o was laundering money through American quarter horse racing. If this was true, it offered a rookie like Lawson the perfect opportunity to infiltrate the cartel. Lawson teams up with a more experienced agent, Alma Perez, and, taking on impossible odds, sets out to take down one of the world's most fearsome drug lords.</p> <p>In Bloodlines, Emmy and National Magazine Award-winning journalist Melissa del Bosque follows Lawson and Perez's harrowing attempt to dismantle a cartel leader's American racing dynasty built on extortion and blood money.</p> <p>With extensive access to investigative evidence and in-depth interviews with key players, del Bosque turns more than three years of research and her decades of reporting on Mexico and the border into a gripping narrative about greed and corruption. Bloodlines offers us an unprecedented look at the inner workings of the Zetas and US federal agencies, and opens a new vista onto the changing nature of the drug war and its global expansion.</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。

【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 Great and Holy War How World War I Became a Religious Crusade【電子書籍】[ Philip Jenkins ]
<p>The Great and Holy War offers the first look at how religion created and prolonged the First World War. At the one-hundredth anniversary of the outbreak of the war, historian Philip Jenkins reveals the powerful religious dimensions of this modern-day crusade, a period that marked a traumatic crisis for Western civilization, with effects that echoed throughout the rest of the twentieth century.</p> <p>The war was fought by the world's leading Christian nations, who presented the conflict as a holy war. Thanks to the emergence of modern media, a steady stream of patriotic and militaristic rhetoric was given to an unprecedented audience, using language that spoke of holy war and crusade, of apocalypse and Armageddon. But this rhetoric was not mere state propaganda. Jenkins reveals how the widespread belief in angels and apparitions, visions and the supernatural, was a driving force throughout the war and shaped all three of the Abra-hamic religionsーChristianity, Judaism, and Islamーpaving the way for modern views of religion and violence. The disappointed hopes and moral compromises that followed the war also shaped the political climate of the rest of the century, giving rise to such phenomena as Nazism, totalitarianism, and communism.</p> <p>Connecting numerous remarkable incidents and charactersーfrom Karl Barth to Carl Jung, the Christmas Truce to the Armenian GenocideーJenkins creates a powerful and persuasive narrative that brings together global politics, history, and spiritual crisis as never before and shows how religion informed and motivated circumstances on all sides of the war.</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>We are told in Hebrews 12:1 that we are surrounded by a great cloud of Witnesses. Who are they? As we read the account of their lives, we can learn what they are witnesses to. What were their lives like? Why should we look at their lives? Most important we learn what made them a witness.</p> <p>The very first witness was and is God. Out of His great love, He spread out the vast universe that night and day shouts to all living "I am". Romans 1:20 tells us because of His witness we are without an excuse.</p> <p>We can look beyond the written scripture and see from history the cloud we can look around us and see the great cloud today, and yes, we too as believers are a part of that great cloud as Jesus told his followers we are to be His witnesses to the ends of the Earth.</p> <p>This great cloud of witness's testimony has never changed. It can be expressed in a hymn written in 1917 by Fredrick M. Lehman. "The Love of God."</p> <p>After he had written two verses, he knew there should be a third. He wrote that from what was written on a prison wall over a thousand years ago by a Jewish prisoner Rabbi Meir Ben Isacc Nehorai. This is his witness as part of that great cloud.</p> <p>"Could we with ink the ocean fill. and were the skies of parchment made, were every stalk on the Earth a quill and every man a scribe by trade.
