George Gillespie's first book, the anonymously published Dispute against the English Popish Ceremonies, propelled him to the forefront of the Second Reformation of the Scottish Kirk. He was then appointed to be an ecclesiastical commissioner to attend the Westminster Assembly of Divines in London. There he produced his most famous work, Aaron's Rod Blossoming, in order to refute the Erastians, who argued for church subordination to the civil government. Gillespie divides his treatise into three sections: (1) "Of the Jewish Church Government," (2) "Of the Christian Church Government," and (3) "Of Excommunication from the Church, and of Suspension from the Lord's Table." This new edition was created by comparing the texts of 1646 and 1844. The bibliography contains over six hundred entries, and all references have been traced. An exhaustive index is provided for all the Scripture references and authors cited, and the many Latin quotations have been translated in the notes. With the publication of this title, all of George Gillespie's works now will have appeared in new critical editions.

This work is a fascinating introduction to Zen and to the self-enlightenment and inner reason that has been a driving force in the history of Japan. In the volumes comprising Zen and Zen Classics, Reginald Horace Blyth (1898-1964) devotes himself to conveying the true character and attitude of Zen, leading the reader to a heightened sense of inner self and to an awakening of awareness of the surrounding universe and one's relationship to it. In Volume One, after discussing "what is Zen?" (and what isn't), Blyth sketches a history of Zen from 1000 B.C. to A.D. 715, the year of the death of the Sixth patriarch, Huineng. With a historical background thus established, he next provides translations and commentary on some of the most important and basic Zen literature. For the Zen initiate, then, this book provides an excellent place to begin. For the practitioner, further meaningful revelations await.

Depression has only one goal: to kill you. Be it by the means of a swift and intentional act or by a long, drawn-out process of slowly taking your life with alcohol and drug abuse, it only wants you dead. Those who fight depression with a bottle of gin or a needle in the arm are losing the fight. They're currently killing themselves slowly, just like depression wants them to. Every antidepressant has a possible side effect of making your depression worse. Is that winning the fight or giving depression the upper hand? Depression wants us to cheat on our lives by forcing us to have an affair with death.The purpose of this book is to help you learn how to love your life more than the idea of death. For someone with depression, death seems like a sweet release, the only way to end the pain. Trust me on this: it's not, especially if you die without knowing Jesus. A life of perpetual agony, despair, rejection, and suffering can't even compare to the first minute of an eternity in Hell separated from God. Depression doesn't care who you are--it wants to kill you. It's time that we finally beat depression and love our lives more than death.In this book, you'll find three things. The first is a clear explanation of the biblical Gospel so that you can learn how to be saved and how to know with certainty that you're saved. The second thing you will find within is my personal story on battling depression, anxiety, suicidal contemplations, a night terror disorder, and severe insomnia. Finally, you will also find nine Bible-based steps in this book that will teach you How To Beat Depression With The Bible.

The Christian Universe is an unabashed defense of Christianity against the unbelief and indifference of our age: all who would deny human freedom and responsibility; all who would maintain that life and existence are meaningless; and all who (under whatever banner) would persuade us that the secular is all in all, or that nothing beyond our own immediate empirical world can be known.Under Mascall's lens, those who hold such positions are seen as offering a dreary and impoverished universe, "quite incapable of satisfying our needs and aspirations." In contrast, he upholds "the wonder and glory of Christianity," its unique revelation and reconciliation with God as the heart of the cosmic process, and its faith not a defiance or negation of the world, but an affirmation that there is meaning to the world.

Most of our everyday life experiences are multisensory in nature, they consist of what we see, hear, feel, taste, smell, and much more. Almost any experience, such as eating a meal or going to the cinema, involves a magnificently complex sensory world. In recent years, many of these experiences have been increasingly transformed through technological advancements such as multisensory devices and intelligent systems. This book takes the reader on a journey that begins with the fundamentals of multisensory experiences, moves through the relationship between the senses and technology, and finishes by considering what the future of those experiences might look like, and our responsibility in it.This new edition seeks to further empower the reader to shape their own and other people's experiences by considering the multisensory worlds in which we live. It includes updated content on new technologies such as generative AI, and further development of an ethical framework around multisensory experiences. This book is a powerful and personal story about the authors' passion for, and viewpoint on, multisensory experiences. The book seeks to empower the reader to shape their own and other people's experiences by considering the multisensory worlds in which we live. This book is a powerful and personal story about the authors' passion for, and viewpoint on, multisensory experiences. Autorid: Carlos Velasco, Marianna Obrist
