Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The beast of Revelation was the Old Roman Empire system, which ruled all of Europe and the Middle East. When Rome fell from within due to the weight of its own government, it was said the beast was dead--but this beast is coming back to life and taking over the world once more. In The World System Equals the Beast of Revelation, author Michael Hazelwood examines this occurrence by unlocking the mysteries of the book of Revelation chapter by chapter. He discerns the signs of the times we are living in with step-by-step biblical and historical references. Bringing a better understanding through the truth of God's Word, Hazelwood explains world events and their relevance to the Bible. He shows how America is described in a biblical prophecy--even if it isn't mentioned by name--and how it is affected by the Old Roman Empire and the Catholic Church. The World System Equals the Beast of Revelation seeks to help Christians gain a better understanding of Bible prophecy and end-time events and find the love, hope, and forgiveness God has for all in Jesus Christ the Lord.

Download or read book Emerging Leadership in the Pauline Mission written by Jack Barentsen and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-08-04 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where did Paul find leaders for his new churches? How did he instruct and develop them? What processes took place to stabilize the churches and institute their new leadership? This book carves a fresh trail in leadership studies by looking at leadership development from a group-dynamic, social identity perspective. Paul engages the cultural leadership patterns of his key local leaders, publicly affirming, correcting, and improving those patterns to conform to a Christlike pattern of sacrificial service. Paul's own life and ministry offer a motivational and authoritative model for his followers, because he embodies the leadership style he teaches. As a practical theologian avant la lettre, Paul contextualizes key theological themes to strengthen community and leadership formation, and equips his church leaders as entrepreneurs of Christian identity. A careful comparison of the Corinthian and Ephesian churches demonstrates a similar overall pattern of development. This study engages Pauline scholarship on church office in depth and offers alternative readings of five Pauline epistles, generating new insights to enrich dogmatic and practical theological reflection. In a society where many churches reflect on their missional calling, such input from the NT for contemporary Christian leadership formation is direly needed.
