The destiny of the human race, the denouement of the story of the universe, the fulfillment of God's overarching plan for all things, these are just some of the eschatological topics that Andrew Jukes explains in this theological masterpiece. Beginning with hermeneutics and including a compelling argument that human beings are saved through death rather than from death, Jukes deftly navigates the reader through thorny themes with the guidance of Scripture.

Аннотация

Данная книга – это попытка по новому осмыслить значимость того духовного и культурного влияния, которое оказала Тора на развитие человеческой цивилизации. Несмотря на то, что Тора была написана около трех с половиной тысяч лет назад, она продолжает быть актуальной и в наши дни, которые являются временем потрясающих для человечества перемен. Технический прогресс и связанные с ним катаклизмы заставляют нас задуматься о том, на верном ли пути мы находимся, и добровольно принять путь спасения заповеданный нам самим Всевышним. В этой книге я привожу небольшие отрывки из Библии и пытаюсь дать новую интерпретацию этим древним и интересным историям для того, чтобы мы вместе задумались об их многогранности и актуальности. Очень надеюсь что эта, пусть и небольшая, но содержательная книга принесет пользу ее читателем, а также ускорит приход Машиаха!

Beautiful New Expanded Edition Includes: Blessing and prayers Special presentation pages Photos of readers’ beloved companions Franciscan Jack Wintz wants you to know—the Bible gives us many clues that we will be with our pets in heaven for eternity! “Our God is a God of overflowing love, goodness, and beauty who is ready to give over everything to those he loves. This goodness is reflected in the whole family of creation. When God says of any creature, whether human or nonhuman, that it is good or very good, it’s not simply a matter of moral goodness. The creature also has an inherent goodness and beauty—a beauty that reflects God, who is Beauty itself.”
