Biblical Principles for Financial Success

Biblical Principles for Financial Success

Paul Kasch

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2012
pokkari
Instructions for achieving financial success can actually be found within the pages of the Bible. For those wise enough to follow them, prosperity is the promised result. These guidelines are given to us by God Himself, in the form of principles which any person can adopt and apply in their own life. The author does not, however, take the approach that God can be manipulated into satisfying your selfish, worldly whims. You will not find a "prosperity Gospel" here. Instead, the reader is shown the Biblical procedure for getting their heart right with God, so that they arrive in a state where God can bless them financially. Once this condition is achieved, a person can then pursue the two primary Biblical principles for financial success that the author has expounded upon, which result in: - A tree planted by streams of water, whose leaf shall not whither, and all that he does shall prosper - The doors of heaven are opened and blessings are poured out in such abundance that there is not room enough to storethem Many Bible-believing Christians already practice these principles and can testify to their effectiveness. Yes, God really does want to bless you
The Two Hells

The Two Hells

Paul Kasch

pokkari
Many people think of hell as a mythical place where bad people go to be poked by little devils with pitchforks. The Bible actually speaks of two different places called hell. One is temporary, and is currently occupied - but only by humans. The other is eternal and currently vacant. One day the occupants of the temporary hell will be moving to the eternal one, where they will be joined by the devil and all his demons. However, nobody will have pitchforks. In this text, Paul Kasch will guide you through a scriptural exploration of the two hells in the Bible. You will learn about the nature of each place, and their likely locations. You will see what the Bible says about the temperature and lighting in each hell. Most importantly, you will come to understand who goes to these places, and learn how you can stay the heck out of them

Take a wild but spiritually eye-opening ride through the pages of the Bible and learn the stories they don't teach in Sunday school. In this work, Paul Kasch is not afraid to offer sound commentary on the R-rated and X-rated content found in the scriptures. After all, it is all part of God's Word. You will come away from this text spiritually charged, understanding that God did not always use perfect people to accomplish His will. That means he can even use the likes of you and me. A bit of warning, however: You might be absolutely blown away by the stories of some of the people whom the Christ genealogy came through. Seasoned Bible students will have a great time and discover new insights into the heart of God, while new Bible students will likely be both shocked and delighted.
Solving Religion with Logic

Solving Religion with Logic

Paul Kasch

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2013
pokkari
Can a religious truth be logically proven, or is religion forever relegated to being a matter of blind faith? If there is a true religion, shouldn't we be able to prove it by now, using scientific data and higher mathematics? This is exactly what Paul Kasch sets out to do in his latest work. The reader is invited to follow along in the investigation process as we: - Establish an unbiased, neutral mindset - Look around at the environment we find ourselves living in, and attempt to solve the question of our existence - Gather the world's major religions, logically arrange and dissect them, and require them to present demonstrable truth of their claims This book would not exist if the quest failed. Using nothing more than the reasoning prowess we are all born with, a solitary (yet timeless) religious truth emerges as the equation of the only sound logical argument capable of producing such a thing. Use your head for something other than a hat rack and join the author on an intellectual journey which renders all other pursuits trivial by comparison.
Grace vs. Obedience

Grace vs. Obedience

Paul Kasch

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2013
pokkari
Christians often struggle with a sorrowful realization of our inadequacy, especially when we encounter the New Testament passages that speak of obedience. And for good reason This is something we all fail miserably at, despite our best intentions. Jesus himself said: "Not everyone who says to me Lord, Lord will in enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but only those who do the will of my Father in heaven." How secure are you in your salvation after reading the above verse? If your answer is anything less than 100% secure, you probably don't have a proper grasp of God's grace as revealed in the New Testament - where we find many wonderful passages assuring us that belief and faith in Christ alone has sealed our eternal life ... but only so long as we choose to remain in Christ. But if we are capable of choosing to leave the faith, how is it we are sealed? And what about exaltation in the afterlife? Is hope of reward proper (or acceptable) motivation for wanting to perform good Christian works? In this book, Paul Kasch scripturally guides the malleable Christian around the circle of grace and obedience in an attempt to find a Biblically-based, peaceful resolution. The believer should come away from this book with a better understanding of the relationship between faith and works, and a glorious confidence in their relationship with Christ.
Two-Dimensional Thinking

Two-Dimensional Thinking

Paul Kasch

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2017
pokkari
The plague of one-dimensional thinking is responsible for more unnecessary divisions, more useless doctrinal arguments, and more dangerous discrediting of inspired scriptures among God's people than any other factor. The cure is to start thinking two-dimensionally. In this treatise, Paul Kasch challenges believers to consider matters from God's perspective - and by so doing, attempt to unite us under the core values of our faith, better equipping us for our service and daily struggles while sojourning in this hostile environment. We have enough tribulation without fighting each other. Because linearly-arranged time here in the physical dimension has proven to be an unstable element affected by matter and gravity, we cannot assume time works the same way, or is even a component of, the spiritual dimension. Grasping this concept will help us reconcile conflicts such as free will & predestination. It then becomes a fun endeavor to explore the ways the spiritual dimension crosses over and interacts with the physical, and how we will eventually become beings with multi-dimensional capabilities. Paul Kasch's latest work will fan the flames of grace in your heart while refusing to compromise scriptural truth. You'll come away from this book with a broader perspective on eternity and a desire to bolster your own spiritual development.

This Element introduces the study of forensic linguistics, particularly in southern Africa, but also in Africa more generally. In the past six decades, there has been clear evidence that the discipline of forensic linguistics is, or was, unknown to general linguists, legal linguists, and applied linguists on the African continent. Now, however, the situation is rapidly changing, with forensic linguistics studies gaining momentum in various parts of Africa. In this Element the authors introduce the topic, define the discipline, address the language of record issue in southern Africa, as well as critically debate the state of court interpreting and translation of documentation into African languages, address police interviewing techniques, while also looking at possible future developments in the discipline of forensic linguistics. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Paul is the most powerful human personality in the history of the Church. A missionary, theologian, and religious genius, in his epistles he laid the foundations on which later Christian theology was built. In his highly original introduction to Paul's life and thought, E. P. Sanders, whose research on Paul has substantially influenced recent scholarship, pays equal attention to Paul's fundamental convictions and the sometimes convoluted ways in which they were worked out. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

For someone who has exercised such a profound influence on Christian theology, Paul remains a shadowy figure behind the barrier of his complicated and difficult biblical letters. Debates about his meaning have deflected attention from his personality, yet his personality is an important key to understanding his theological ideas. This book redresses the balance. Jerome Murphy-O'Connor's disciplined imagination, nourished by a lifetime of research, shapes numerous textual, historical, and archaeological details into a colourful and enjoyable story of which Paul is the flawed but undefeated hero. This chronological narrative offers new insights into Paul's intellectual, emotional, and religious development and puts his travels, mission, and theological ideas into a plausible biographical context. As he changes from an assimilated Jewish teenager in Tarsus to a competitive Pharisee in Jerusalem and then to a driven missionary of Christ, the sometimes contradictory components of Paul's complex personality emerge from the way he interacts with people and problems. His theology was forged in dialogue and becomes more intelligible as our appreciation of his person deepens. In Jerome Murphy-O'Connor's engaging biography, the Apostle comes to life as a complex, intensely human individual.

Since its first publication in German in 1959, Paul has been hailed as a major study of the apostle to the Gentiles, combining exceptional scholarship with an unusual approach. Schoeps interprets Paul's theology in the light of his Jewish background, which coloured and conditioned his Christological teaching. Paul's conception of Jesus differs from that of the Synoptics: what and how extensive the difference is and whence it is derived are among the questions Schoeps examines. After surveying major problems in Pauline research, the Author relates the apostle to primitive Christianity, discussing his eschatology and his teachings on salvation, the law, and saving history. The final chapter shows that Paul's distinctive doctrines result from two converging factors: that Paul never saw Jesus in the flesh, and the influence of Jewish teaching. The consequence was his concern with the resurrected Saviour of the world, the pre-existent and eternal Son of God. Schoeps shows that Paul betrayed a fundamental misconception of the law and the covenantal agreement between God and his chosen people. The result is a thought-provoking, and somewhat startling, study of the first, the greatest, and the most difficult of all Christian theologians.

'There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.' (Galatians 3.28) The revolutionary writings of St Paul have had an incalculable impact on Western history, and continue to influence directly the two billion Christians living today. Written by a world authority, this brief history begins by assessing what we know about Paul's life and letters, and his impact on the Roman world of the first century. It concludes by highlighting the key elements of Paul's thought and considering their consequences as they have played out over two millennia.

This compelling reconstruction of the life and thought of St Paul paints a vivid picture of the Roman world in which he preached his revolutionary message and explains the significance of his lasting impact on both the Church and the world. Regarded by many as the founder of Christianity, Paul of Tarsus is one of the most controversial and powerful figures in history. His writings have had an incalculable influence on Western culture and beyond, and his words continue to guide the lives of over two billion Christians across the world today. In this superbly detailed biography Tom Wright traces Paul's career from zealous persecutor of the fledgling Church, through his journeys as the world's greatest missionary theologian, to his likely death as a Christian martyr at the hands of Nero in the mid 60s CE. Drawing judiciously on the latest research into the Jewish, Greek and Roman worlds, and enriched by a wealth of critical insight into Paul's own writings, this is the most rounded portrait of the apostle ever painted – his development, motivations, spiritual struggles and intellectual achievements, and his lasting impact over two millennia.

A groundbreaking new portrait of the apostle Paul, from one of today’s leading historians of antiquity Often seen as the author of timeless Christian theology, Paul himself heatedly maintained that he lived and worked in history’s closing hours. His letters propel his readers into two ancient worlds, one Jewish, one pagan. The first was incandescent with apocalyptic hopes, expecting God through his messiah to fulfill his ancient promises of redemption to Israel. The second teemed with ancient actors, not only human but also divine: angry superhuman forces, jealous demons, and hostile cosmic gods. Both worlds are Paul’s, and his convictions about the first shaped his actions in the second. Only by situating Paul within this charged social context of gods and humans, pagans and Jews, cities, synagogues, and competing Christ-following assemblies can we begin to understand his mission and message. This original and provocative book offers a dramatically new perspective on one of history’s seminal figures.

An intimate portrait of a complex individual through whom God was at work, turning the world upside down. With vivid imagination and scholarly depth, award-winning author Walter Wangerin Jr. weaves together the history of the early church with the life story of its greatest apostle--Paul. Wangerin begins to unfold Paul's incredible life by imagining the childhood and early family life of a boy then called "Saul." A fierce prosecutor of Christians before his conversion, Paul never lost his fiery dedication, boldness, and strong personality. After his shocking encounter with God on the road to Damascus, he applied his formidable strengths to spreading the gospel. Wangerin deftly reveals Paul's character through each stage of his life, and enables us to see Paul the person, living and complex, viewed through the eyes of his contemporaries: Barnabas, James, Prisca, Seneca, and Luke. Paul's rich interaction and brilliant dialogue with friends and foes, leaders and slaves, Jews and Greeks, creates a swift and intense historical drama around the man who spread the seed of the Gospel to the ends of the known world.

Lucas Grollenberg, a Dutch Dominican, is already known to English readers as the author of one of the best illustrated atlases of the Bible. In this short book he provides one of the most engaging and non-technical introductions to the often difficult thought and work of St Paul. The book arose out of a series of meetings with a group of lay people. Its style is informal and there are no disconcerting details to cope with which presuppose a certain level of knowledge. At the same time, however, the book reflects the best modern critical scholarship and does not gloss over the difficulties which Paul presents to twentieth-century readers. Fr Grollenberg draws on three sources for his account: the letters of Paul, Acts, and the knowledge that has come down to us from the ancient world. To this he can add his own first-hand knowledge of the territories involved, gained not least from travels in an old Volkswagen over the routes covered by Paul. The result is a vivid and even controversial picture of the apostle. Was Paul married? 'No doubt about it', says the author, and to those who might raise their eyebrows gives utterly convincing reasons for such judgment. Perhaps his activities led in due course to a marital separation. If only we had her story. . . .
