El libro es un manual sobre la crítica bíblica y los problemas clave en la religión y la filosofía. El libro pretende ser una introducción a estos argumentos dedicado a hispanohablantes con poca o ninguna formación científica previa en el área.

What is Hell? For millennia, this question has haunted humanity, shaping our laws, inspiring our art, and tormenting our souls. But the concept of damnation is not a single, static doctrine. It is a story—a dark mirror reflecting our deepest fears, our evolving sense of justice, and our changing understanding of the divine. "HELL! THE ABSENCE OF GOD" A History of Hell from Ancient Fire to Eternal Silence is a sweeping, scholarly, yet profoundly accessible journey across four thousand years of belief. It begins not in the fiery pits of Christian tradition, but in the silent, dusty ...

And Jesus Wept explores the major differences between what Jesus-of-Nazareth taught, and the faith that claims him as Savior. Anthony Gifford, once an ordained minister, always a seeker, challenges listeners to look at the original message of Jesus, but to bypass churches. Gifford uses clear insight and long experience to explain how Gentile symbolism/interpretation, imperial politics, and theological changes have hidden Jesus’ original teachings under many years of dogma, violence, sexism, and exclusion.

I was baptized and brought up in the Orthodox Christian faith. I was taught it in childhood and throughout my boyhood and youth.

In On Angels and Intellect, philosopher and essayist George Le Savant offers a luminous, lyrical exploration of what it means to think, to be known, and to endure. Drawing on the works of St. Thomas Aquinas, C. S. Lewis, and both ancient and modern philosophers, this reflective work traces the nature of the soul’s intellect—before, during, and beyond the body.

These discourses are drawn from the sacred text of 'Agasthiyar Vazhipaadu' where Sage Agastya reveals the truth about Creation and walks us through 'time' itself, as he lovingly lays bare the world as it is now, and what must be done to change the way we live. In a series of practical down to earth explanations, Sage Agastya lays bare deeper meanings of different aspects of life. Questions such as, why is there an increase in population? Why some die at birth? Is rebirth necessary? What is that we must do to change ourselves, and thus, walk on the path to liberation? are all answered in ...

In this volume, Dr. Rushdoony clearly enunciates each major philosopher's position and its implications, identifies the intellectual and moral consequences of each school of thought, and traces the dead-end to which each naturally leads. There is only one foundation. Without Christ, meaning and morality are anchored to shifting sand, and a counsel of despair prevails. This penetrating yet brief volume provides clear guidance, even for laymen unfamiliar with philosophy.

Radical theology and political theology are terms that have gained a lot of currency among philosophers of religion today. In this visionary new book, Jeffrey W. Robbins explores the contemporary direction of these movements as he charts a course for their future. Robbins claims that radical theology is no longer bound by earlier thinking about God and that it must be conceived of as post-secular and post-liberal.

Once a staunch sceptic, former RAF fighter pilot George Begg experienced a life-changing encounter with God that transformed his understanding of existence. In Mysteries of The Other Side: Book 1 – The Hidden Story, he explores the previously hidden divine truths and patterns woven through creation, Scripture, and human life. Bridging faith, philosophy, and science, this powerful debut invites listeners to question what they believe about life, death, and the afterlife… and to discover a renewed sense of purpose and order in an age of chaos.

This book offers a close reading of Romans that treats Paul as a radical political thinker by showing the relationship between Paul's perspective and that of secular political theorists. Turning to both ancient political philosophers (Plato, Aristotle, and Cicero) and contemporary post-Marxists (Agamben, Badiou, Derrida, and Žižek),

In "Natur" (1836) entfaltet Ralph Waldo Emerson die Grundgedanken des Transzendentalismus, einer philosophischen Bewegung, die Natur, individuelles Denken und spirituelle Unabhängigkeit in den Mittelpunkt stellt. Emerson beschreibt die Natur als lebendige Offenbarung des Göttlichen und plädiert für eine unmittelbare, intuitive Verbindung des Menschen mit der natürlichen Welt – jenseits dogmatischer Systeme. Ein Grundlagenwerk der amerikanischen Philosophie – poetisch, inspirierend und zeitlos.

El Īśāvāsya Upaniṣad se considera uno de los textos más acreditados de las escrituras védicas. La comprensión adecuada de este upaniṣad es clave para descifrar el resto de las escrituras. Este texto es esencial en el estudio del hinduismo en general y del vedānta en particular, ya que enseña la unidad esencial de Dios y del universo. Los misteriosos y encriptados versos del texto pueden parecernos contradictorios y son difíciles de entender sin la adecuada guía de un maestro espiritual. Mediante su comentario, Prabhuji ilumina estas antiguas enseñanzas, ayudando a los ...

–«El saber de los medievales se materializa en la filosofía cristiana». Con estas palabras Stefano Fontana empieza a desarrollar un proyecto de divulgación filosófica que aspira a derribar los prejuicios que contra la Edad Media ha levantado y levanta aun hoy en día la modernidad en todas sus versiones. Escrito con un estilo sencillo, directo y divulgativo -y no especialmente dirigido a cristianos- Fontana se enfrenta a cierta corriente impuesta que, desde el Renacimiento hasta hoy mismo, tilda el pensamiento medieval de oscuro, bárbaro y carente de vitalidad cultural e intelectual...

Rather than offering partisan applause or condemnation, this ...
