The Hidden Mysteries


Book Description

The creation of the world which consist of humans, the universe which comprises of all the existing matter and space as a whole is still a mystery which mankind has not been able to give a concrete answer to. Simply put a mystery is best described as something that is difficult or impossible to understand or explain. It can also be looked at as something beyond the comprehension of man. The Bible tells us that the mystery of God is Jesus Christ now revealed in us: Colossians 2:-3 KJV: “ In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. From the perspective of the Bible a mystery is something that was hidden at one time but has been made known to the children of God. Unravelling the mystery of God is something that is beyond the comprehension of man. It is mind blowing and explosive for man to want to unravel it by their own human understanding, knowledge, or intelligence. This can only be achieved through the help of the Holy Spirit. That is why when Jesus was talking to his disciples about his impending crucifixion and resurrection in John 16 verse 13 & 14 “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine and shall shew it unto you. So this book The Hidden Mystery focus on what aspect of God’s word could be termed as mysteries:- The mystery of conception and birth both physical and spiritual: The mystery of Faith: The mystery of marriage: The mystery of the Word: The mystery of Prayer: the Mystery of Life; The mystery of the cross etc. When it comes to the mysteries of God and the truth surrounding the creation of mankind, there is a constant battle going on in man’s mind. The raging battle is centered around “belief and unbelief” Such battles can only be won by submitting totally to the will of God.




God and Love on Route 80


Book Description

The coauthor of Why Good Things Happen to Good People “shares his journey to that which is whole, holy, and healed in all of us” (Deepak Chopra, MD). Once every generation comes a book so revelatory and lucid, it reconnects us to our very souls. God and Love on Route 80 is such a book. Stephen G. Post was the perfect child and A-student until he took off in the family car, compelled by a persistent vision, his “blue angel dream.” Crossing America on Route 80, his unlikely adventure culminates in a shocking encounter that sets the stage for the rest of his life, a path connected by synchronicities which Post perceived as guidance from God and proof of humanity’s fundamental oneness, Infinite Mind. Truly a story for the ages, God and Love on Route 80 touches on the essential meaning of life and the messages we may all miss unless we begin paying close attention. God and Love on Route 80 is the highly entertaining true story of a cross-country road trip and a spiritual journey that led one young man to the discovery that a powerful force carries us toward our destinies. Many scriptures teach of an eternal, Infinite Mind beyond space and time that creates and sustains the universe. The divine Mind whispers and winks at us as we move through our everyday lives to reassure us that the journey is meaningful after all, even when we stumble. This book is for dreamers and questers of any spirituality who are looking for positive meaning and purpose in life. On the road, we can find God, redemption, forgiveness, and the understanding that we are all connected.

For the Love of God (Vol. 1, Trade Paperback)


Book Description

In a world that views absolute truth, right and wrong, and salvation as being subject to individual interpretation, the Bible's unwavering proclamations and miraculous stories seem obsolete in modern times. But it is not God's Word that has changed. Indeed, its relevancy and its power to transform lives are intact. What has changed is the number of people who consult it. Now more than ever the need to read the Bible, to understand the big picture of its storyline, and to grasp the relevance this has for your life is critical. As with its companion volume, For the Love of God-Volume 2, this devotional contains a systematic 365-day plan, based on the M'Cheyne Bible-reading schedule, that will in the course of a year guide you through the New Testament and Psalms twice and the rest of the Old Testament once. In an effort to help preserve biblical thinking and living, D. A. Carson has also written thought-provoking comments and reflections regarding each day's scriptural passages. And, most uniquely, he offers you perspective that places each reading into the larger framework of history and God's eternal plan to deepen your understanding of his sovereignty-and the unity and power of his Word.

Savoring God


Book Description

"This book compares two mystical works central to the Christian Discalced Carmelite and the Hindu Bhakti traditions: the sixteenth-century Spanish Cántico espiritual (Spiritual Canticle), by John of the Cross, and the Sanskrit Rāsa Līlā, originated in the oral tradition. These texts are examined alongside theological commentaries: for the Cántico, the Comentarios written by John of the Cross on his own poem; for Rāsa Līlā, the foundational commentary by Srīdhara Swāmi along with commentaries by the sixteenth-century theologian Jīva Goswāmī, from the Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava school, and other Gauḍīya theologians. The phrase "savoring God" in the title conveys the Spanish gustar a Dios (to savor God) and the Sanskrit madhura bhakti rasa (the sweet savor of divine love). While "savoring" does not mean exactly the same thing for these theologians, they use the term to define a theopoetics at work in their respective traditions. The book's methodology transposes their notions of "savoring" to advance a comparative theopoetics grounded in the interaction of poetry and theology. The first chapter explains in detail how theopoetics is regarded considering each text and how they are compared. The comparison is then laid out across Chapters 2, 3, and 4, each of which examines one of the three central moments of the theopoetic experience of savoring that is represented in the Cántico and Rāsa Līlā: the absence and presence of God, the relationship between embodiment and savoring, and the fulfilment of the encounter between the divine and the lovers"--
