During healing services or conferences, cries often can be heard such as: ""You must believe! Keep standing in faith! Hold on to it! Claim healing! Stand in your authority!" Initially simple, clear, seemingly Biblical-sounding sentences. On the one hand, stated as a condition for being able to heal, on the other hand, reproachful when healing does not occur.How did Jesus and the disciples deal with people in need of healing? And why in that way? Under what conditions did Jesus heal people? Was it based on faith and/or initiative? Did Jesus ever accuse people of unbelief? Did He confirm faith as the cause of healing?In short, are you healed by faith and are you to blame when that does not work? To find an answer to these questions, each healing situation is examined carefully and systematically.

Animal Farm (originally Animal Farm: A Fairy Story) is a satirical allegorical dystopian novella, in the form of a beast fable, by George Orwell, first published in England on 17 August 1945. It follows the anthropomorphic farm animals of the fictional Manor Farm as they rebel against their human farmer, hoping to create a society where all animals can be equal, free, and happy away from human interventions. However, by the end of the novella, the rebellion is betrayed, and under the dictatorship of a pig named Napoleon, the farm ends up in a far worse state than it was before.According to Orwell, Animal Farm reflects events leading up to the Russian Revolution of 1917 and then on into the Stalinist era of the Soviet Union, a period when Russia lived under the MarxistLeninist ideology of Joseph Stalin. Orwell, a democratic socialist, was a critic of Stalin and hostile to Moscow-directed Stalinism, an attitude that was critically shaped by his experiences during the Barcelona May Days conflicts between the POUM and Stalinist forces, during the Spanish Civil War.

El dragón amuralladoEn un mundo marcado por la tensión entre China y Estados Unidos, ninguna nación puede permanecer indiferente. Para Colombia, que estrecha cada vez más su relación con este país, comprender a China dejo de ser un asunto lejano: es una necesidad estrategica. Pocas voces en Colombia pueden hablar con tanta autoridad sobre ese desafio como la de Luis Diego Monsalve Hoyos, exembajador de Colombia en la Republica Popular China (20192022). Testigo directo de la pandemia del COVID-19 en Wuhan, negociador en momentos de crisis y explorador de las dinamicas culturales y economicas de 27 provincias chinas, Monsalve combina en este libro el rigor del analisis geopolitico con la sensibilidad de quien recorrio el pais a pie, en tren y en bicicleta. Este no es un informe diplomatico ni un diario de viaje. Es un testimonio que revela los codigos invisibles de China y ofrece lecciones practicas sobre como relacionarse con una potencia que combina modernidad y tradicion, control y creatividad, poder y espiritualidad. Entre negociaciones por vacunas, viajes a regiones remotas, cenas oficiales y encuentros con empresarios, el autor comparte lecciones de diplomacia practica y humana. El resultado es un libro luminoso sobre el poder del asombro, el valor de la escucha y la delicada arquitectura de las relaciones entre culturas tan distintas como necesarias. Una obra imprescindible para empresarios, academicos, politicos y lectores curiosos que quieran entender no solo a China, sino al mundo que se redefine a su alrededor.

O rompimento da barragem de Fundo, em Mariana/MG, em 2015, no devastou apenas o meio ambiente: rompeu redes de afeto, destruiu modos de vida e aprofundou desigualdades nas comunidades atingidas. Este livro apresenta uma analise sensivel e profunda sobre os impactos do desastre na vida das mulheres do Espirito Santo e revela como genero, emoço e justiça se entrelaçam no enfrentamento as violaçes de direitos. A autora, defensora publica atuante no caso desde os primeiros dias, conduz o leitor ou a leitora por uma jornada de escuta e mobilizaço ao lado de mulheres invisibilizadas, que aos poucos transformam dor em luta.

Destinado a leitores interessados em justiça ambiental, genero, direitos humanos e mobilizaço social, o livro articula teoria e pratica por meio de uma escrita acessivel e envolvente, que privilegia a primeira pessoa e aposta na força da autoetnografia. Seu diferencial esta em compreender o "ser mulher" no apenas como marcador social, mas como elemento de transformaço um elo capaz de gerar empatia, escuta ativa e aço coordenada. Mais do que um relato institucional, o livro e um convite a reflexo sobre como afetos e identidades moldam o acesso ao direito e a reparaço, e por que a presença de mulheres em espaços decisorios importa e transforma. Uma leitura essencial para quem acredita em uma justiça construida por e para mulheres, de forma coletiva, ancorada na participaço social e orientada por praticas de controle popular dos processos decisorios.

Of Occult Philosophy (De Occulta Philosophia, 1533) is the most influential work of Cornelius Agrippa, a Renaissance compendium of magical, esoteric, and philosophical knowledge that sought to integrate the wisdom of antiquity with Christian thought. Written in three books, the work presents a system of magic encompassing nature, the stars, and the divineforming a bridge between science, religion, and mysticism.In the first book, Agrippa explores natural magic, describing the correspondences among minerals, plants, animals, and the hidden forces of nature. The second deals with celestial or astrological magic, explaining the influence of the stars and the "music of the spheres" on human life. The third focuses on ceremonial and theurgic magic, related to the invocation of higher intelligences and spiritual purification.Beyond superstition, Agrippa sought to grant philosophical dignity to magic, presenting it as a sacred science aimed at understanding the relationship between humanity, the cosmos, and God. Occult Philosophy became a foundational text of Western occultism, inspiring later thinkers, alchemists, and mystics in their search for hidden truth.

El libro definitivosobre los GALLa guerra sucia contra ETA se mantuvo activa durante algo más de una década. Desde la primera acción planificada por el Batallón Vasco Español en junio de 1975, hasta el asesinato de un joven electricista en Hendaya a manos de los GAL en julio de 1987, los escuadrones de la muerte -nacidos a la sombra del franquismo, y alimentados durante los gobiernos de Felipe Gonzalez por los fondos reservados del Estado- perpetraron mas de un centenar de acciones violentas que acabaron con la vida de ochenta personas y provocaron una profunda grieta en los cimientos de la democracia que intentaba abrirse paso en nuestro pais.Este libro es el trabajo mas completo que existe sobre el terrorismo de Estado y sus tentaculos. Manuel Cerdan traza un minucioso recuento de los hechos -operacion tras operacion, asesinato tras asesinato- a partir de los testimonios de protagonistas e implicados como Jose Amedo, Juan Alberto Perote o Roldan, y otros altos cargos de Interior. Asi como de los miles de paginas de sumarios y documentos ineditos que se reproducen en el, para dar respuesta a las incognitas que aun subsisten sobre ese periodo negro de la Historia reciente.Un monumento al mejor periodismo de investigacion que nos demuestra que, cuando el poder escribe la historia con renglones torcidos, la verdad se convierte en la primera victima de la guerra mas sucia.

O que é ser humano?Esta é uma pergunta que exige resposta cuidadosa em nossos dias. Assim como a igreja, ao longo dos séculos, enfrentou crises teológicas acerca da divindade de Cristo e da justificaço pela fe, vivemos hoje uma crise antropologica sem precedentes. Em muitas comunidades crists, mesmo entre aqueles que conhecem as respostas corretas sobre quem e Jesus e como somos salvos, encontramos uma compreenso fragilizada sobre o que significa ser humano.Em O que e ser humano, o teologo britanico Iain W. Provan utiliza a metafora do cuco europeu um parasita que se infiltra em ninhos alheios e destroi a familia hospedeira para descrever como ideias no biblicas sobre a humanidade tem invadido sorrateiramente nossas comunidades. Essas ideias, quase imperceptiveis a primeira vista, crescem ate dominar completamente o ambiente cristo, desviando-nos de forma fatal do caminho da verdade.Dividido em quatro partes praticas e acessiveis, este livro oferece: Uma base solida para compreender a antropologia crist Ferramentas para identificar e rejeitar ideias no biblicas sobre a humanidade Orientaçes claras para viver segundo uma viso verdadeiramente crist do ser humano Estrategias para equipar a igreja contra os "cucos" antropologicos contemporaneos Escrito especialmente para cristos serios que desejam seguir fielmente a Jesus Cristo, este livro no apenas promove o discipulado, mas tambem ajuda a restaurar uma viso biblica e robusta da pessoa humana em todas as areas da vida da igreja.

How to Make Sense of Jesus Divine ClaimsDo you ever wonder if Jesus really claimed to be God? Maybe youve heard people say, "Jesus never said he was God," or youve been asked, "Why believe Jesus is divine if he never claimed it?" These challenges arent just from non-Christiansthey show up in church, too. Even if youre not coming from a place of skepticism, you might still question how well church teachings about Jesus match up with what he actually said. So, did the historical Jesus really claim to be divine?This book is here to give you confidence in the historicity of Jesus claim to divinity. Its designed to help you explain your faith in a world that increasingly doubts the Bibles portrayal of Jesus. Instead of focusing on what Jesus followers believed, this book takes a different approachit looks at what Jesus enemies thought. How did they interpret his words and actions? Their perspective can help you understand the historical validity of Jesus divine claim.In this book, biblical scholar Mikel Del Rosario uses historiography to examine claims about Jesus divinity, analyzes ancient Greco-Roman, Jewish, and biblical sources to understand how Jesus words and actions were interpreted by his adversaries and followers, and argues that Jesus claimed divine authority, a claim supported by strong historical evidence. If youre a Christian, this book will equip you to defend your faith against theories that suggest Jesus only claimed human authority, not divine. If youre someone who sees Christianity differently, this book offers a serious investigation into the claims of the historical Jesus, providing evidence that any theory of his identity must address. Whether youre searching for answers to your own questions or trying to share about Jesus with others, this book will help you communicate Jesus divine claim with clarity and confidence.

Beginning with the rise of modern Pentecostalism before tracking back 2,500-years, author and academic Gavin Evans traces the history of the Abrahamic faiths, Christianity, Judaism and Islam. In this book he explores the New Testament, Hebrew Bible and the Quran.Delving into recent archaeological research, Bible Stories presents evidence that tales such as those of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and also Moses, Joshua and the Exodus, were entirely mythological. Robust interrogation of the evidence allows Evans to go further still, casting doubt on the Jesus story and arguing that even if he did exist as an historical figure, we know next to nothing about him.As well as examining these key religious texts, Bible Stories also holds modern atheism to account - critiquing the work of some of its most ardent advocates, Evans rejects a militant approach and makes a compelling argument for a softer, more tolerant atheism.

In Pokrovsk, 7,500 residents refuse to leave a city that no longer exists their homes obliterated but their will unbroken. A generals seventeen-year-old pet toad becomes an iconic symbol of defiance. And buried beneath a cherry tree, a murdered writers final diary is recovered, a haunting echo of a silenced voice.From the home front to the trenches, Kurkov captures the rhythms of survival the quiet rituals, unlikely joys, unexpected humour and appalling costs in an intimate and deeply moving record of national endurance.

Justin has always been conflicted over the exalted claims made about The Wicker Man, his fathers magnum opus: for him, the film destroyed his family. He has no photographs of Robin Hardy in his house. His brother Dominic, whom Robin abandoned as a baby, has been more distanced. Their fathers film is a set of fragmented stories: benighted production, brutal editing, critical reception, financial failure, and later revival.Then, at the height of the Covid pandemic, Justin receives a letter from a woman hes never met. She has found a cache of Robins personal papers that have been sitting untouched in the attic of Justins childhood home since the 1970s. Would he like them?Using these newly uncovered sources, along with the Hardy familys own letters and photographs, Children of The Wicker Man investigates what Robin Hardys creative contribution to The Wicker Man was, and considers who was truly sacrificed. In the process, the brothers discover an unlikely heroine: Justins mother Caroline, who bankrupted herself paying loans to her husband and the film, only for him to leave when it flopped. For all women behind artist husbands, this book reveals a series of heroines: the mothers of the children of The Wicker Man.
