Par Herbert Krosney. 2006
C'est d'une découverte archéologique majeure la plus spectaculaire depuis les Rouleaux de la Mer morte dont il est question dans…
ce livre : celle de l'Évangile de Judas. Judas. Le traître de Gethsémani, celui qui embrassa Jésus avant de le livrer. Judas, l'homme aux trente deniers, universellement détesté. Rien de bon ne saurait venir d'un tel homme. Et pourtant... Pourtant, cet évangile présente Judas comme celui que Jésus choisit pour le livrer, en somme le plus fidèle de ses disciples ! Mais condamné comme hérétique par l'Église, ce texte du IIe siècle devait disparaître dans les oubliettes de l'Histoire... Jusqu'à aujourd'hui. -- 4e de couvLes impostures antichrétiennes: des apocryphes au Da Vinci code
Par Joseph-Marie Verlinde. 2006
Plus que jamais, le christianisme se doit de répondre aux défis qui lui sont lancés, notamment au New Age et…
aux thèses développées dans le Da Vinci Code, ou encore au gnosticisme, à l'occultisme et à la magia sexualis . Les adeptes du New Age adhèrent en effet à l'idée d'une Tradition primordiale dont les religions ne seraient que des expressions plus ou moins dévoyées. Joseph-Marie Verlinde démontre le caractère fantaisiste de cette théorie, prenant forme chez Dan Brown dans le culte à la Grande Déesse qui a supplanté le Dieu paternaliste judéo-chrétien. En déconstruisant une à une les thèses de l'écrivain américain - sur la Révélation, le mythe du Graal, la soi-disant diabolisation de la sexualité par l'Église, sa prétendue misogynie -, il nous donne les clés pour comprendre la véritable teneur de l' oeuvre de Dan Brown. Et c'est aussi pour lui l'occasion de répandre la Bonne Nouvelle pour contrer ses effets. -- 4e de couvCinquante portraits bibliques (Littérature étrangère)

Le royaume caché (Rêve et vie)
Par Éloi Leclerc. 1987
Eloi Leclerc, bien connu par ses ouvrages sur François d'Assise, introduit le lecteur dans une nouvelle et bouleversante découverte de…
l'Évangile. Au seuil de la jeunesse, l'auteur est passé, dans les camps de la mort, par l'épreuve du silence de Dieu. Devenu particulièrement sensible à l'immensité de la détresse qui peut submerger les hommes, une question le poursuit : dans la nuit de la mort où Dieu se tait, quelle espérance l'Évangile peut-il encore apporter ? En méditant les évangiles, l'auteur cherche à rencontrer un visage, une présence. " L'homme qui annonce au monde la tendresse de Dieu pour la terre a connu l'expérience la plus crucifiante de l'absence de Dieu. La révélation de Dieu en Jésus se fait au cœur même de la condition humaine la plus abandonnée." La vérité de l'Évangile tient à la profondeur de cette expérience de Jésus. L'auteur en est convaincu. Et sa lecture des grandes pages des évangiles, qui se distingue par la justesse exégétique et par une émouvante sobriété de ton, en porte la marque, comme s'il conviait le lecteur à un sérieux inhabituel, à une attention extrême, pour rencontrer Jésus. Ce livre, qui laisse deviner un voyage intérieur, s'adresse aux femmes et aux hommes de ce temps qui, de tant de manières, font l'épreuve de l'absence et du silence de Dieu.A Garden of Prayer: A Family Treasury
Par Jenna Bassin and Jane Lahr. 1955
An exquisitely illustrated collection of more than 100 beautiful prayers drawn from centuries of Christian faith across the globe. Chosen…
for their poetry as well as their enduring power to inspire, the prayers collected in this volume reflect the historical and cultural breadth of the Christian tradition. The selection includes prayers from four continents and many centuries—composed in the flower of youth and the fullness of maturity, uttered in sorrow, thanksgiving, doubt, and transcendence. A Garden of Prayer brings together the words of Saints, including Thomas Aquinas and Francis of Assisi, as well as authors ranging from Abraham Lincoln to Thomas Merton and from John Donne to Robert Louis Stevenson. It also features powerful, anonymous prayers from the Christian communities of Ghana, Ireland, and elsewhere. The prayers are arranged in five sections that correspond to the changing seasons—spring, summer, fall, winter, and returns to the transcendent spring. The beauty of the prayers is enhanced by illustrations throughout the book, including full-color illuminations that begin each section.This volume by the late Bernd J. Diebner presents an anthology of studies previously published only in German from 1971…
to 2020 on a wide range of topics in biblical studies. The 18 essays in this collection offer profound insight into the works of German scholarship which have strongly influenced biblical studies and related research in the 20th century. Being an important, but lesser recognized ‘member’ of the Copenhagen school, Diebner voiced serious criticism of contemporary biblical scholarship which is discussed in the first seven chapters. The remaining chapters offer challenging new perspectives on well-known themes, narratives, and compositions related to history, ideology, and archaeology, on the one hand, and text and canon, on the other, as alternatives to traditional historical–critical approaches. Now published in English for the first time, this volume makes these essays available to Anglophone students and scholars of biblical and ancient Near Eastern studies.The Air We Breathe: How We All Came to Believe in Freedom, Kindness, Progress, and Equality
Par Glen Scrivener. 2022
Discover the Christian roots of the values we prize in western society. TGC and Christianity Today 2022 Book Award Winner…
in Evangelism & Apologetics. Is Christianity history? Or is Christian history the deepest explanation of the modern world? Today in the west, many consider the church to be dead or dying. Christianity is seen as outdated, bigoted and responsible for many of society's problems. This leaves many believers embarrassed about their faith and many outsiders wary of religion. But what if the Christian message is not the enemy of our modern Western values, but the very thing that makes sense of them? In this fascinating book, Glen Scrivener takes readers on a journey to discover how the teachings of Jesus not only turned the ancient world upside down, but continue to underpin the way we think of life, worth, and meaning. Far from being a relic from the past, the distinctive ideas of Christianity, such as freedom, kindness, progress and equality, are a crucial part of the air that we breathe. As author Glen Scrivener says in his introduction: "The extraordinary impact of Christianity is seen in the fact that we don't notice it". This is a book for both believers and sceptics-giving Christians confidence to be open about their faith and showing non-Christians the ways in which the message of Jesus makes sense of their most cherished beliefs. Whoever you are, you'll gain a deeper appreciation for the values you hold dear as you discover the power and profundity of Jesus and his revolution.Timeless Truths Bible: One faith. Handed down.

you are also part of the tribe whom God is calling to himself. In the six lessons of People, you will explore how the nation of Israel was impacted by the unfolding drama of their cycle of revolt against God, and why the Lord commissioned a chosen people who would be a witness on earth of his faithfulness. Time and time again, God's people turned their backs on him, but God was always quick to show mercy when they repented and called out to him. The cycle we see again and again throughout the Old Testament isn't just about the Israelites; it's also about us. We are all participants in the pattern of revolt, repentance, and restoration. People will help you see how God works out his glorious plans, despite our defiance, to bring his promises to fruition, and you will also grasp that no matter how many times you turn away, God seeks you out to bring you back.
