Divination:

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This thesis examines the nature and meaning of divination in the Berekum Traditional Area. Divination is seen as an attempt by humans to know the unknown or to know the will of the divine. Diviners are thus, all those who are capable of revealing the will of the divine. Eighteen principal divining methods are identified in the Berekum Traditional Area. Religious behaviour has been seen to be symbolic. Thus, all items used in divination are those that are believed can enhance the result of divination. Divination in the Berekum area has both diagnostic and prescriptive dimensions.Divination in Berekum also shows that the people believe in a host of supernatural beings all of which can influence the life of humans either positively or negatively. The phenomenon of divination plays an important role in the life of the people of Berekum. But factors like Science and technology, formal education, urbanisation as well as other religious traditions, particularly Christianity is posing a very great challenge to the survival of divination in the study area. But the hold of religion on the people is so huge that it is likely the phenomenon of divination will be with them for a very long time. ····· 1036118644

Liberal Islam in Indonesia

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Jaringan Islam Liberal (JIL) is a network whose members claim themselves to be proponents of liberal Islam in Indonesia. The term liberal Islam means a critical understanding of Islamic teachings based on the essential meaning of the text by going beyond the literal meaning of the text because the text does not exhaust all meanings of revelation. In order to achieve this, JIL considers the fruits of modernity such as democratization, the idea of progress, secularization, human rights, religious freedom and pluralism and so forth as important in interpretation. Various responses have been addressed to JIL. The responses can be seen as questioning the validity of its concerns, its authority as a proponent of liberal Islam and the relationship between JIL and Indonesian society as its audience. This work also concentrates on all of these response types, either positive or negative, to JIL s views on religious freedom and pluralism. ····· 1036118455

The Early Church is the Mirror for Today`s Church

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
We live in a world of globalization. Those things which people thought that will not happen are happening. The things prophesied by prophets and Jesus Christ are taking place nowadays. A lot of church denominations have been started. Every church denomination has its own kind of teaching and belief. Every church denomination claims to be biblical in her teachings. Whether a church is the true church or not is determined by comparing its teachings and practices to the teachings and practices of the New Testament church which are recorded mainly in the book of Acts of the Apostles. There is a big danger for a certain church denomination to put an emphasis only in one area of teaching and leave other teachings beside which are also important in the body of Christ. In order to have the balance, we need to notice the characteristics and teachings from the early church and see what we should be doing today. Specifically the study focuses on the Biblical teachings and practices of the early church compared to today s church. It is my prayer that as you read this book God will minister to you in a special way. Be Blessed.Thanks. ····· 1036118130

From `Maryada Purushottam` of Hindus to `Violent Ram` of Hindutva

für 39.42€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The present work analyzes the rise and growth of Communalism in India and Sangh Parivar. The book also points out the differences between the Image of Lord Ram in Hinduism and the image of violent Ram projected by Sangh Parivar during late 80s and 90s. The book focuses on the history of communal riots, projection of Violent Ram by Sangh Parivar and the Ramjanam Bhumi-Babri Mosque controversy. The book contends that it was the Sangh Parivar, who, to gain political mileage by mobilizing Hindus on communal grounds, projected the Violent image of Ram, asking their fellow religionist to be violent to end the evil (i.e Muslims). The Sangh Parivar utilized the communal riots and growing hatred among Hindus against Muslims and the Shah Bano movement. They used religion and religious symbols to mobilize Hindus to successfully spread the ideology of communalism and projected the image of violent Ram. Thus the Babri Mosque was demolished in 1992 and since than the issue is a bone of contention between Hindus and Muslims in India. ····· 103614468

Between Heaven and Hell

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Early in the twentieth century, the Spanish scholar and translator, Miguel Asín Palacios, claimed that Dante Alighieri had appropriated many features of his otherworld narrative, `La Divina Commedia,` from Muslim sources. Some decades later one such source was discovered that dated to the thirteenth century. The manuscript had been translated into Spanish, making it accessible in that language to Europeans. That discovery refuelled the claim that Dante derived his inspiration from Moslem sources, a claim that persists to the present time. This book demonstrates through the close analysis of aspects of Asin`s thesis and three case studies, that Dante instead follows precedents in sources from the Judeo-Christian corpus, sources that predate the emergence of Islam. The analyses of the case studies contain new information and original interpretations on the lives of the historical characters, Brunetto Latini, Reginaldo degli Scrovegni, and Manfredi Hohenstaufen (the illegitimate son of Frederick II). These analyses should be of interest to students of mediaeval and specifically Italian history, religion and literature, and to those who have followed scholarship on the `Asin thesis.` ····· 103613648

Interfaith Dialogue: Charity

für 40.41€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This book is about interfaith dialogue between Muslim and Christian faith communities in Canada. In Canada Christianity has been the predominate religion throughout its history. That demographic is beginning to shift, with Islam as the fastest growing faith and Christianity continuing its decline in numbers since the end of WWII. Canada s culture is diverse and pluralistic and heavily depends upon immigration to maintain its population growth and workforce. Canada has a strong record on Human Rights and embraces its rich diversity which makes it culturally distinct on the world stage. This creates a golden opportunity for Muslims and Christians in Canada to lead the way in effective interfaith dialogue. An understanding of the theologies and practices of charity in the Muslim and Christian faith traditions is a significant bridge that promises to lead to lasting peace, effective dialogue, and a joint working relationship with one another. If done properly, effective interfaith dialogue between the Christian and Muslim faith communities could potentially influence and change public policy for the alleviation of poverty within the broader communities they co-inhabit. ····· 103613445

A Critique of Marx`s View of Religion

This book explores Karl Marx`s position that religion is the opium of the people. While Marx argued that religion is an ideology, in this book it is argued that it is not. It is further argued that Christianity should not be taken as a paradigm for all religions. Thus, while Marx`s critique of religion was appropriate for the Christianity of his time, it cannot be a true description of the role Christianity has played in every epoch. Indeed, Marx`s view of religion should not be universalized and applied to all other religion especially African traditional religions. ····· 103613157

La religión de matriz africana

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Las religiones de matriz africana ocupan un espacio en las sociedades americanas desde el tiempo de la expansión colonial. Debe tenerse en cuenta que dicha presencia está desprendida directamente da la práctica esclavista y el traslado de poblaciones originarias africanas. Sin embargo la religión no puede ser vista desde el exotismo desde donde suele ser vista inclusive por algunos cientistas sociales, sino que su presencia tiene una transversalidad en la sociedad americana tal como pretende dar cuenta esta trabajo. Además en el proceso histórico que va desde la esclavitud hasta la constitución de los modernos Estados americanos la religión ha tenido una presencia como productora y conservadora de la cultura africana que tanto tiene que ver en la formación de las pautas culturales americanas. Por otro lado en este proceso histórico y particularmente en el siglo XX la religión ha incorporado a su practica a sujetos no afrodescendientes que en países como Argentina son la mayoría de los practicantes, en esta incorporación la religión de matriz africana amplio su cuerpo doctrinario a todos lo que necesitasen de su abrigo fundiendo el discurso religioso con el discurso de liberación. ····· 103612998

La religiosidad popular es un tema fascinante que puede ser analizado desde muy diversos puntos de vista. En el presente texto, los autores lo abordan como una parte integral del imaginario colectivo de los habitantes de Xochimilco.

Guillermo de Saint-Thierry, teólogo y místico del siglo XII, se ha servido de la metáfora del amor esponsal para hacer referencia a la reciprocidad entre el hombre y Dios, camino de la conformación de la creatura a su Creador. Este trabajo indaga sobre El Espíritu Santo, origen de la esponsalidad en la Expositio super Cantica canticorum de Guillermo de Saint-Thierry. Se trata de un tema complejo y de índole novedoso, desarrollado a partir de un contenido dogmático que el autor ha desplegado como teología mística trinitaria. El recorrido del texto abarca cuatro ejes fundamentales, el primero de ellos es el antropológico-teológico que penetra en la dimensión humana de la esposa. Un segundo eje gira en torno la esponsalidad en Cristo, profundizando la dimensión cristológica. Un tercer eje aborda la obra del Espíritu Santo en su índole trinitaria y un cuarto y último eje versa sobre la tensión escatológica como camino de búsqueda y encuentro de los esposos. Desde este itinerario cometido despunta la esponsalidad como clave de comprensión de la participación del hombre en la vida trinitaria, emplazada por el Espíritu Santo en su origen mismo. ····· 103611380

Religions in Globalizing India

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
If India is to find its appointed place in the galaxy of developed nations, it must harness the energy of every Indian. Indians by nature are deeply religious. If the human energy is to be channelized in the right direction, then the Indian leadership needs to engage deliberately and constructively with all the religions that make its presence felt on the Indian landscape. This could build extreme pressure on the organizational set-ups of religions to reform, renew and rejuvenate their archaic rituals and dogmas to fulfill the high aspirations of their modern adherents. The author s core concern is to re-discover the liberating and inclusive elements in various religions, stressing the need to adaptation to changing circumstances so as to create an inclusive and peaceful Indian nation, as it moves towards integrating itself with the globalizing world. The book is a must-read for all sensitive readers, especially students engaged in understanding the role of religions as extremism and fundamentalism in the name of religion is leaving scars all around the world. ····· 103611006

However, talk about the gift of the Holy Spirit and the Church is completely split into diverse dichotomy with varying degrees of understanding, believe and acceptance. The author takes the view that the gift of the Holy Spirit was intended by God and is imperative for a successful Christian life. He goes on to posit that a successful Christian life is impossible without the power and influence of the Holy Spirit. This book combines Scripture with practical examples to underscore the significance of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer. The author believes that many Christians are weak and confused and many are being deceived because they do not understand or accept the influence of the Holy Spirit. Regardless of your spiritual background, you will find this book revealing, almost controversial, but it will edify you. ····· 10361923
