On the Philadelphian Gold

Philadelphian Society

Beschreibung

The Philadelphian Society was a dissenting and mystical movement - but also, in fact, an initiatory society - founded in England in the 17th century by John Pordage (1607-1681), an Anglican priest from Bradfield, Berkshire. The members of the Philadelphian Society held views that were somewhat similar to Pantheism, regarding the belief in the presence of God in all things, and with a nondualist component, in that they also believed the presence of the Holy Spirit exists in each and everyone’s soul, and that one can become enlightened and illuminated by living a virtuous life and seeking truth through the wisdom of God.The Theosophical Transactions was the official journal of the Philadelphian Society. This short lived magazine (four issues appeared during 1697) was edited by Francis Lee, the son-in-law of Jane Lead. Most of the articles in this magazine were published without credit or else given pseudonymous authors, though the bulk of these were probably written by Francis Lee or his colleague Richard Roach. Among these is this interesting philosophical dialogue On the Philadelphian Gold (A Conference betwixt Philochrysus and Philadelphus on the Philadelphian Gold).

Spiritual Warfare and...

Harold Ristau

There is much more to our common struggles than meets the eye

· navigate spiritual warfare with Christian maturity and wisdom
· covers both ordinary spiritual warfare, like personal temptation, and "extraordinary" encounters, such as demonic oppression, possession, and exorcisms
· from a pastor, missionary, and former military chaplain

***

Our modern Western world is deeply confused about what is good and what is evil. We know little about angels and demons, though the Scriptures we purport to believe have much to say about them. We blur the distinction between God and the devil. And we are paying for it. Denial of reality does not change reality.

Drawing from Scripture, history, and his own experiences as a missionary and a military chaplain, Harold Ristau helps Christians develop a biblical understanding of our spiritual vulnerability in both "ordinary" life, such as personal temptation, and "extraordinary" situations such as demonic oppression and possession. He takes us beyond theory, where many other resources stop, laying out practical tools to equip us for our own personal battles and steps to take to protect ourselves and others from the evil forces at work in our world. And he lays out an effective, proven process for mature ministers and clergy to follow when performing an exorcism.

There is much more to the struggles we face in life than meets the eye. If you want to be prepared for the battles that lie ahead, this book is your grounded, thorough, and hope-filled guide to ministering to the demonically oppressed or possessed.

Hot Lumberjack

Aviva Blakeman

Abi thought she had a charmed life. She’s got her dream job, family and friends who love her, and she just bought a great old house! Everything would be perfect, if not for the logging company that’s just set up shop next door. 
And the guy she can’t seem to stop shtupping. 
Who just happens to be their chief tree cutter. Er, logger. Lumberjack? 
Ilan took over his father’s business three years ago and he’s proud of the success he’s earned. Getting the contract to clear the Howell acreage is just another in a string of achievements. He didn’t mean for it to be such a sore subject for the people of the neighborhood. 
He especially didn’t mean to find himself naked with Abi. 
At least not more than once. 
Definitely not more than twice. 
Too bad it seems to keep happening. Worse, they can’t say two words to each other without wanting to throw things. But there’s no way the attraction will last, nobody who gets that turned on can stay that way and get anything done, right?
