Easily the most important advance in Judeo-Christian relations in 100 years, Commonwealth Theology (CT) cuts across denominational divisions to reveal God’s plan for the Church and the Jews. CT is based on a more literal interpretation of the Scriptures. Interpretations have, since the 2nd century, been influenced by man’s philosophy and politics. Beyond the basics of Christian salvation, mainstream theologies are at odds. Catholic, Reform, and Evangelical interpretations of Bible prophecy don’t agree because they have all overlooked the obvious. Is it possible that the truth has been...

Gli amici di Evolvenza si sono riuniti per molti anni in "agapi" in cui leggevano vari insegnamenti dei maestri immateriali e, insieme, cercavano di applicare questi insegnamenti alle loro vite. Era una ginnastica spirituale che a molti di noi ha fatto bene, perché ci ha permesso d'intuire la perfezione della Legge che, oltre a governare le nostre vite, governa il Tutto. Le ricerche di Evolvenza sono riportate, oltre che sui libri, giornalmente su YouTube. Attualmente chi scrive frequenta lo storico Cerchio Esseno, il cui strumento difende da quarantacinque anni il suo anonimato.

In this groundbreaking exploration, discover how Jesus Christ’s appearance among the seven golden candlesticks—shaped like the almond branches of the Tabernacle—connects to these pivotal events. See how Abraham’s turning to behold the ram caught in the thicket and Moses’ turning to witness the fire that did not consume the bush are deeply intertwined ...

"Origen and the Priesthood" is an introduction and anthology dedicated to Origen of Alexandria’s reflection on the Christian priesthood. Inspired by the work of Father Mariusz Szram, this volume offers an in-depth study of Origen’s writings on the subject and presents a selection of translated texts that illustrate his thought. Origen, one of the greatest theologians of the early Church, did not write a specific treatise on the priesthood, but he extensively addressed the topic in his homilies and biblical commentaries, particularly in his interpretations of the Old and New Testaments. ...

This publication commences by considering what the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed have to say about who created: was it the Father or the Son or both? After some discussion, it then moves on to consider to whom the Bible, especially the New Testament, attributes creation.

I recently attended a performance of Peter Shaffer’s play, Equus. The play was inspired by an irrational crime—a young man had intentionally blinded a number of horses with a sharp object. The playwright knew nothing about this individual or the circumstances surrounding the crime—only of the crime itself. The play seeks to create a mental world where the crime can be made comprehensible. This short drama is of the same nature. We do not really know Judas: we only know his crime. What could make the crime of Judas comprehensible? We have limited information about Judas. He was from a ...

Speaking in tongues is still practiced by many churches today . For some, it is proof of salvation and spirituality; for others, it is a proof that one has received the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Many believe that the proof of the entry of the Holy Spirit into a life is speaking in tongues, after one has finished praying the prayer of salvation, one must wait for his Pentecost by praying and groaning; there are leaders who even force their followers to speak in tongues. Should and can the evangelical Christian of today speak in tongues? In addressing this subject, we do not in any way wish...

People sometimes have difficulty understanding the Trinity. But if that is the case with someone reading this Introduction, then he or she should not feel too bad. It took the scholars and theologians of the early Church about five hundred years after the Incarnation of Jesus to even begin to figure it out. The whole idea of one God is not too difficult to understand. But when the same scholars and theologians start talking about one God in three persons, then the whole matter becomes much more complicated. Is it biblically correct to say or think of three different persons of deity, daily ...

In December 1967, my life was in more trouble than I could realistically handle. While in the midst of those struggles, I asked the Lord to forgive me for all the wrong that I had done and to put my life on a path that would lead me out of my difficulties. More than fifty years later, I can now say that He was faithful to do exactly that. He changed me from the inside out. Then He changed the dreadful circumstances of my entire life. Since that night in 1967, I have experienced the joy of knowing the God of the universe and the one and only Creator of everything. Through the years, I have ...

"You won’t like this book. Ecclesiastes is gloomy, skeptical, and irreverent. It is caustic and drolly splenetic. It is unapologetically human. It refuses to abet our hunger for clean narratives and happy endings. It is a hopeless book. Insisting on life’s futility, the world’s capriciousness, and God’s inscrutability, it deliberately cultivates despair. It sees such bone-deep hopelessness as the only cure for what ails us. Ecclesiastes is a hard book full of hard sayings. It is an anvil against which our hearts must be hammered. No wonder we avoid it. But the cost of avoidance is ...

In his gospel, the Apostle John had recorded eight occasions when Jesus had made metaphorical statements about Himself. In chapter one of this text however, the evidence to show that he had actually written the gospel by his name will first be presented. One should note from that discussion that this gospel has not always had his name associated with it. So there had initially been some room for doubt. One should also understand that not everyone agrees about when this gospel was written. So that will also be a matter for discussion. Finally, chapter one will also consider some of the very ...
