Sinossi

 “The Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath: so that the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”—Mark 2:27, 28, R. V.There was nothing for which the religious leaders of Christ’s day, the Pharisees, were such sticklers as the Sabbath.Everything must give way to the demands of the Sabbath law and their interpretation of it. Sabbath keeping was more important to their minds than love or mercy or the needs of man. (Matt. 12:7,8.) Whatever a man might be or do that was good, if he did not keep the Sabbath according to their idea of it, he deserved to die and be damned. Sabbath keeping was the sum of all righteousness and Sabbath breaking was the sum of all wickedness. They pronounced Jesus Christ, the Son of God Himself, to be worthy of death because He did not keep the Sabbath in their way. (John 5:18.)The most constant conflict that Jesus had with the Jews was on the subject of Sabbath keeping. In bringing one of these conflicts to a close, He uttered the words of our text and declared the great underlying principles of the question.

    An urgent call for Christians everywhere to explore the nature of the kingdom amid the political upheaval of our day. 
    Should Christians be politically withdrawn, avoiding participation in politics to maintain their prophetic voice and to keep from being used as political pawns? Or should Christians be actively involved, seeking to utilize political systems to control the levers of power? 
    In Jesus and the Powers, N. T. Wright and Michael F. Bird call Christians everywhere to discern the nature of Christian witness in fractured political environments. In an age of ascending autocracies, in a time of fear and fragmentation, amid carnage and crises, Jesus is king, and Jesus’s kingdom remains the object of the church's witness and work. 
    Part political theology, part biblical overview, and part church history, this book argues that building for Jesus's kingdom requires confronting empire in all its forms. This approach should orient Christians toward a form of political engagement that contributes to free democratic societies and vigorously opposes political schemes based on autocracy and nationalism. Throughout, Wright and Bird reflect on the relevance of this kingdom-oriented approach to current events, including the Russian-Ukraine conflict, the China-Taiwan tension, political turmoil in the USA, UK, and Australia, and the problem of Christian nationalism.

    Bestselling author Paul David Tripp unpacks key biblical truths about eternity and shows you how to find purpose and hope for today in the eternal story God is writing in and through your life. 
    Why am I so unhappy? Why do the hardships of life rock me as much as they do? Why is my life less than I imagined it would be? 
    All of us want to believe we are living life in such a meaningful, mindful way that we are prepared for what is to come. But too often, we live with the unrealistic expectations and functional hopelessness that results when we say we believe in eternity yet live discouraged and unfulfilled, as if the life we're living today is all there is. And yet the truth is that living in light of eternity deeply impacts our relationships, our vocation, our family, our deepest struggles, and our greatest desires. 
    So how do we embrace a deeply needed eternity mindset? 
    With biblical wisdom and practical insights on how to live daily with eternity in mind, pastor and bestselling author Paul David Tripp helps you:Realize that this broken world can never satisfy the deepest longings of your soulLive with something bigger in mind than this present moment's comfort, pleasure, and happinessUnderstand the unshakable promise of the grace you can find in eternity and the hope it can give you amid the hardships you face nowDiscover how to thrive in the middle of your story, with the final chapter of heaven in view 
      
    Living in light of eternity is more than a hope and a dream. It's more than a theological formulation. It's more than a distant spiritual expectation. It's a present reality that changes everything! Hardwired for Forever shows you how the Creator placed forever inside you and has everything you need to start living into that reality today.

    Are we truly striving for heaven or merely avoiding hell?The human hearts greatest longing is to see God as He is. And yet, many people simply want to escape hells pain, or even worse, they follow our disordered fallen nature in choosing sinful pleasures. Our Lord said the road to heaven is narrow, but the road to hell is wide (see Matt. 7:13). Is choosing the road to heaven merely wanting to avoid pain, or is it actively pursuing the greatest good beyond imagining?Do we choose the good because we strive to love God with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength, or do we choose the good merely because we fear hell?God never leaves us alone in these choices. Indeed, He sends us His grace, but—to help us cooperate with that grace and fight valiantly—He also sends spiritual warriors and guides, of whom one of the greatest is Saint Thomas Aquinas.In Angelic Virtues and Demonic Vices, Saint Thomas guides us on how to pursue our true celestial homeland while avoiding running to a false heaven. He outlines the various vices, and their forty plus daughters, and details how to conquer them.After reading this work, you will not only desire to become a saint because you will see how hideous vice truly is but also see how splendid virtuous living for God is.
