The second in a series, Insights to Finding Spiritual Peace offers a
compilation of Bible studies and commentaries written over more than
twenty years. They were born from personal experience and insights from
God and originated as monthly prayer letters with a written Bible
message. These studies invite you to a deeper spiritual walk with the
Lord and nourish and comfort the soul through the stresses and
challenges of life. The secrets of the Lord’s purposes are found in the
Bible, and as the Holy Spirit opens our eyes to His Word, we gain His
insight. It is then we can say, “I understand.” This volume presents a
series of “now I understand” moments that can bring you knowledge and
comfort.
This collection of Bible studies and commentary seeks to help you
recognize and benefit from the work of the Holy Spirit in your life.
The essays collected in Revelation and Leadership in the Kingdom of
God intend to honor Professor Ian Arthur Fair, a distinguished
biblical scholar and leader in Christian education, known for his
groundbreaking research on the Book of Revelation and church
leadership. Scholarly contributions included in the Festschrift
mirror Fair's own scholarly interests, including biblical studies,
with particular attention to the New Testament apocalyptic
traditions, philosophy of missions, theology of worship, history of
the Restoration movement, and modern theology. The content of the
Festschrift thus closely follows Fair's own spiritual and scholarly
journey and also reflects the breadth and scope of his influence on
the church and the academy.
Few ancient Christian authors attempted anything like a complete
commentary on the "Gospel of John", among them Origen, John
Chrysostom and Augustine. Of these, Augustine's must count as the
greatest. Unlike Origen's, it has come down to us in its entirety,
and of the others that remain it is certainly the most
theologically profound. John's gospel allows Augustine to range
broadly over themes that were his life's work - the Trinity, the
person of Christ, the nature of the Church and its sacraments, the
fulfillment of the divine plan. The 124 homilies that constitute
Augustine's commentary, however, are masterpieces not only of
theological profundity but also of pastoral engagement. In the
question-and-answer style that he frequently employs, for example,
one can sense Augustine's real awareness of his congregation's
struggles with the gospel text. And the congregation's response to
Augustine, which he frequently alludes to, is an indication of the
success of his dialogical preaching style. The Johannine literature
drew out the best in Augustine." The Homilies on the "Gospel of
John" are the indispensible complement to "The Homilies on "The
First Epistle of John", recently published in this series, and they
should be a part of any serious theological library.
Bits and Pieces of God's Holy Word was written after meditating on the
Holy Bible. It is a summary of the main issues presented in the Bible,
explaining each chapter. It is designed for people who want to know the
content of the Bible but may be overwhelmed with the idea of reading
the Bible in its entirety.
