Kinders vra soms uitdagende vrae, soos: Wie het vir God geskep? Waar is
die hemel? Hoekom laat God toe dat virusse oorneem? Kan God enigiets
doen? Kan Hy dinosourusse weer laat lewe? As God alles weet, hoekom
moet ek bid?
Dit is soms moeilik om te antwoord op eerlike soos dié. Bybelvrae en
antwoorde vir kinders is ’n handige hulpmiddel vir saamlees of
selflees. Dave Strehler, ’n gerespekteerde skrywer met jare lange
ervaring in kinderbediening, gee toepaslike Bybelgebaseerde antwoorde
op meer as 80 vrae wat kinders vra oor God, geloof en die Bybel.
Elke vraag bevat genoegsame Skrifverwysings, ʼn kort bespreking asook ʼn
interessante veelkeuse-vraag wat kinders self kan antwoord. Twee
woordraaisels is ingesluit wat kinders uitdaag om al die name van die
boeke in die Ou en Nuwe Testament op te spoor. Daar is ook ’n afdeling
met kort opsommings van elke boek van die Bybel, met sleutelverse uit
die boek wat gememoriseer kan word.

In 1950, the famous Dominican theologian Yves Congar stated that
there were three kinds of reform in Church history, to cure three
kinds of corruption. Doctrinal orthodoxy was reformed by General
councils. Institutional shortcomings were reformed by
administrative means (like codifying Church law). Moral failings
were remedied best by the preaching of religious orders. He also
added that in the 20th century, since the Church suffered neither
heresy nor moral laxity, the only area was institutional reform. He
died before the sexual abuse of children came to light. If Congar
got it wrong, it suggests that the Church cannot reform itself: or
can it? Michael Winter was ordained priest for the Catholic diocese
of Southwark in 1955. He worked for nine years as curate and parish
priest in a variety of parishes. Later he pursued further studies
in theology at the universities of London, Cambridge and Fribourg
(Switzerland), where he was awarded the Doctorate in Theology in
1977. He resigned from the clergy in 1986 and turned to university
teaching, and writing. Subsequently.

Pastors and leaders of the classical church--such as Augustine,
Calvin, Luther, and Wesley--interpreted the Bible theologically,
believing Scripture as a whole witnessed to the gospel of Jesus
Christ. Modern interpreters of the Bible questioned this premise.
But in recent decades, a critical mass of theologians and biblical
scholars has begun to reassert the priority of a theological
reading of Scripture. The Brazos Theological Commentary on the
Bible enlists leading theologians to read and interpret Scripture
for the twenty-first century, just as the church fathers, the
Reformers, and other orthodox Christians did for their times and
places. In the sixth volume in the series, Phillip Cary presents a
theological exegesis of Jonah.
Psalms vir ’n vreugdevolle lewe is ’n versameling inspirerende
aanhalings uit die psalms wat volgens temas ingedeel is. Temas soos lof
en aanbidding, rykdom en vertroue op God bring elke leser nader aan
God. Psalms vir ’n vreugdevolle lewe bevestig opnuut hoeveel troos en
bemoediging die Skrif bied vir elke gelowige wat tot God nader.
What do Christians hope for? To leave this wicked world and go to
'heaven' For the 'kingdom of God' to grow gradually on earth? What
do we mean by the 'resurrection of the body', and how does that fit
with the popular image of sitting on clouds playing harps? And how
does all this affect the way we live in the here and now? Tom
Wright, one of our leading theologians, addresses these questions
in this provocative and wide-ranging new book. He outlines the
present confusion about future hope in both church and world. Then,
having explained why Christians believe in the bodily resurrection
of Jesus himself, he explores the biblical hope for 'new heavens
and new earth', and shows how the 'second coming' of Jesus, and the
eventual resurrection, belong within that larger picture, together
with the intermediate hope for 'heaven'. For many, including many
Christians, all this will come as a great surprise. Wright
convincingly argues that what we believe about life after death
directly affects what we believe about life before death. For if
God intends to renew the whole creation - and if this has already
begun in Jesus' resurrection - the church cannot stop at 'saving
souls', but must anticipate the eventual renewal by working for
God's kingdom in the wider world, bringing healing and hope in the
present life. Lively and accessible, this book will surprise and
excite all who are interested in the meaning of life not only after
death but before it.
How to Defeat the Enemy During These Dark Days As the time
approaches for Jesus' return, the spiritual battle between good and
evil is heating up. Evidence is all around: shootings, genocide,
civil wars, increased persecution. Our enemy is real, and it seems
as if he is winning. The good news is that God is at work in
powerful ways--and that Satan is not winning. But we need to know
how to wage war against him and his plans for these turbulent days.
We must understand not only the intensified warfare environment of
the end times, but how we can walk in our authority in Jesus
Christ. Here are the practical insights you need on how to fight
using the spiritual weapons God has given us: the blood of Jesus,
the Word of God, our own testimony, and more. When we learn how to
wield these weapons, we will see victory over Satan and his kingdom
and bring hope to these dark days.
