Sinopsis

"Biblical Christianity" explores the evolution of Christian denominations and their divergence from early church practices, posing the thought-provoking question: "How far have we strayed from the original teachings of Christ and His apostles?" This comprehensive book delves into the roots of Christianity, comparing modern religious practices with those of the first-century church and examining the gradual changes that have occurred over two millennia.

 
The book is structured in three main sections:1. An introduction to biblical Christianity and historical context2. An analysis of major Christian denominations' development3. Practical guidance for modern Christians seeking to align their faith more closely with biblical teachings

 
It traces the spread of Christianity through the Roman Empire and beyond, highlighting key historical events that shaped the religion's development. One intriguing aspect is the book's examination of how cultural and political pressures have influenced the adaptation of Christian practices over time.

 
What sets this book apart is its balanced approach to a potentially contentious topic, seeking to understand the historical and cultural contexts that led to changes in Christian worship and organization. By drawing on biblical texts, early church writings, historical documents, and contemporary scholarship, "Biblical Christianity" offers readers a comprehensive view of Christianity's evolution, challenging them to consider how they might bridge the gap between modern practice and biblical teachings.

    Can a theological case be made from Scripture that Israel still has a claim to the Promised Land? Christian Zionism is often seen as the offspring of premillennial dispensationalism. But the historical roots of Christian Zionism came long before the rise of the Plymouth Brethren and John Nelson Darby. In fact, the authors of The New Christian Zionism contend that the biblical and theological connections between covenant and land are nearly as close in the New Testament as in the Old. Written with academic rigor by experts in the field, this book proposes that Zionism can be defended historically, theologically, politically and morally. While this does not sanctify every policy and practice of the current Israeli government, the authors include recommendations for how twenty-first-century Christian theology should rethink its understanding of both ancient and contemporary Israel, the Bible and Christian theology more broadly. This provocative volume proposes a place for Christian Zionism in an integrated biblical vision.

He kept his vast fortune hidden somewhere on his estate in the south of England and died suddenly, without telling anyone where he had concealed it. Tressa and her ailing mother are left with a mansion and an immense vineyard and no money to run it. It doesn't take long for a bevy of opportunists to flock to the estate under the guise of offering condolences. Tressa knows what they're really up to. She'll have to work with the rough and rusticated vineyard manager to keep the laborers content without pay and discover the key to finding her father's fortune--before someone else finds it first. Award-winning author Joanna Davidson Politano welcomes readers to Trevelyan Castle, home of the poorest heiress in Victorian England, for a treasure hunt they'll not soon forget.

    An Inspiring, Practical Guide to Finding Rest and Getting Closer to God Sabbath-keeping not only brings physical refreshment, it restores the soul. God commands us to "remember the Sabbath," but is it realistic in today's fast-paced culture? In this warm and helpful book, Shelly Miller dispels legalistic ideas about Sabbath and shows how even busy people can implement a rhythm of rest into their lives--whether for an hour, a morning, or a whole day. With encouraging stories from people in different stages in life, Miller shares practical advice for having peaceful, close times with God. You will learn simple ways to be intentional about rest, ideas for tuning out distractions and tuning in God, and even how meals and other times with friends and family can be Sabbath experiences.Ultimately, this book is an invitation to those who long for rest but don't know how to make it a reality. Sabbath is a gift from God to be embraced, not a spiritual hoop to jump through.
