  • Today We Have This Powerful Story of the Raising of the Widow's Son from the Dead. We Know There Are a Couple of Other Exampl
    Today we have this powerful story of the raising of the widow’s son from the dead. We know there are a couple of other examples in the Scriptures of Jesus raising people from the dead. Of course, the story of the raising of Lazarus and the story of the raising of the daughter of Jairus. But this raising story, you’ll notice, is a little different. In this story no one is asking Jesus for help. For Lazarus, Martha says “If you had been here, my brother would not have died.” Jairus says, “My daughter is at the point of death. Please, come lay your hands on her that she may get well and live.” Jesus sets on His own initiative and in this we see His great compassion. Let’s look at the scene a little closer. The one who died was the only son of a widow. So she was alone. Her husband had died, and now her only son had died, so she has the terrible grief of losing her son after already having lost her husband. She has the prospect now of being alone, and on top of this, in those days women didn’t really work for income. So now she has to be completely dependent on the charity of others to live. Maybe she now would even have to be reduced to begging. The Lord sees all this going on. The exact scripture we heard was: “When the Lord saw her, He was moved with pity for her.” So we see the Lord’s great compassion here.

  • The Human Encounter with Death
    The Human Encounter With Death by STANISLAV GROF, M.D. & JOAN HALIFAX, PH.D. with a Foreword by ELISABETH KÜBLER-ROSS, M.D D 492 / A Dutton Paperback / $3.95 / In Canada $4.75 Stanislav Grof, M.D., and Joan Halifax, Ph.D., have a unique authority and competence in the interpretation of the human encounter with death. Theirs is an extraordin­ ary range of experience, in clinical research with psyche- delic substances, in cross-cultural and medical anthropology, and in the analysis of Oriental and archaic literatures. Their pioneering work with psychedelics ad­ ministered to individuals dying of cancer opened domains of experience that proved to be nearly identical to those al­ ready mapped in the "Books of the Dead," those mystical visionary accounts of the posthumous journeys of the soul. The Grof/Halifax book and these ancient resources both show the imminent experience of death as a continuation of what had been the hidden aspect of the experience of life. —Joseph Campbell The authors have assisted persons dying of cancer in tran­ scending the anxiety and anger around their personal fate. Using psychedelics, they have guided the patients to death- rebirth experiences that resemble transformation rites practiced in a variety of cultures. Physician and medical anthropologist join here in recreating an old art—the art of dying. —June Singer The Human Encounter With Death is the latest of many re­ cent publications in the newly evolving field of thanatology. It is, however, a quite different kind of book—one that be­ longs in every library of anyone who seriously tries to un­ derstand the phenomenon we call death.

  • Problematics of the Dimensions of Death
    2424 6 May 90 PROBLEMATICS OF THE DIMENSIONS OF DEATH ELLIOTT THINKSHEETS 309 L.Eliz.Dr., Craigville, MA 02636 Among the fears ineluctably buzzing around death both as fact Phone 508.775.8008 & as idea is the fear of the spiritual dimension of life, even of Noncommercial reproduction permitted the very word "spiritual." Eg, Lloyd Glaubermen, inventor of Hypno-Peripheral Pro- cessing (the latest in psychotechnology: multiple-track audiotapes to pre-change behavior from the unconscious to conscious living--incorporating Milton Erikson's subliminal story-telling & Neuro-Linguistic Programming's dual induction--"to build self-esteem, dispel depression, and generate a healing effect in both mind and body") says the use of myths-stories "can bring meaning and purpose to many of us. I hesitate to say that the stories have a spiritual message , since this word for many may equate to a lack of substance. Rather, I might just say that the stories, the myths, have a universal application and appeal." (Interview by David Beeman in April- May/90 PASTORAL COUNSELING LETTER; boldface, mine) The S-word is scary for a profounder reason than this that our psychoacoustical stress-manager alludes to. It is scary fundamentally because "spiritual" signals the deepest/highest dimension of our lives, where most--indeed, everything--is at risk as we face the "Mysterium tremendum et fascinosum" ("the Mystery that causes us to tremble, but so fascinates us we can't run away"). And of all life-events, none other can compare with death in grabbing our attention for the "spiritual" dimension. No wonder the current flood of books on the death/spirituality relationship--many on Hospice chaplaincy.

Section 1 explores the desert as place of the death. e monk has symbolized this death by locating his existence in the desert, because the renunciation of secular life led the monk to regard himself as dead. Section 2 points out depictions of monks as dead or entombed. We will examine here the role played by “daily dying” in the Life of Antony. Antony the Great characterizes his life as a kind of “death”, because he lives as though dying each day. In other words, the monk, though not actually dead, eectively dies each day. is kind of “death” (daily dying) contains the seeds of later ascetic tradition on a “practice of death”. Keywords: death, Desert Fathers, Late Antiquity, monasticism, Antony the Great. INTRODUCTION growth of monasticism in fourth-century Egypt has long been recognized as one of the most significant and alluring The withdrawal from the world is the most powerful moments of early Christianity.

  • (1) the End Times Our Hope & God's Promise Part One Individual
    Sam Storms Bridgeway Church / Foundations The End Times (1) The End Times Our Hope & God’s Promise Part One Individual Eschatology: Death, the Intermediate State, Resurrection, and Judgment (“Let us consider this settled,” said Calvin, “that no one has made progress in the school of Christ who does not joyfully await the day of death and final resurrection” [Institutes, 3.10.5].) Biblical eschatology is a vast field of study encompassing far more than merely “end-time” events, or what we customarily speak of as “prophecy”. Also included within the discipline of eschatology is the destiny of the individual, most often conceived as entailing 4 phases or experiences: (1) physical death, (2) the intermediate state, (3) the bodily resurrection, and (4) the judgment of the believer. Physical Death The word “death” is used in Scripture to describe three experiences: (1) spiritual death, or the separation or alienation of the individual soul from God (cf. Gen. 2:17; 3:3,8-9; Eph. 2:1,5); (2) eternal death or second death, which is the culmination or eternal continuation of spiritual death (cf. Rev. 2:11; 20:6,14; 21:8); and (3) physical death which is the temporary separation of the material and immaterial aspects of the human constitution (cf. Gen. 35:18; James 2:26; Phil. 1:21-24; 2 Cor. 5:1-8, I Cor. 15:35-58). Insofar as this study concerns the destiny of individual Christians, those who have been saved from spiritual death, we will focus only on (3) physical death. The Character and Cause of Physical Death The character of physical death, or, what is it? • The absence of clinically detectable signs such as the heart stopping and the decrease of blood pressure and body temperature? • The absence of brain wave activity? • The irreversible loss of vital functions? • The Scriptures answer the question spiritually, not clinically.

Newkome, Ph.D. ____________________________ ____________________________ Faculty Reader Date Howard Ducharme, Ph.D. ____________________________ Faculty Reader Matthew Crawford, Ph.D. ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is about death and its relationship to religion in late seventeenth- century England. The primary argument is that while beliefs about death stemmed from the Reformation tradition, divergent religious reforms of Puritanism and Arminianism did not lead to differing approaches to death. People adapted religious ideas on general terms of Protestant Christianity and not specifically aligned with varying reform movements. This study links apologetics and sermons concerning spiritual death, physical death, and remedies for each to cultural practice through the lens of wills and graves to gauge religious influence. Readers are reminded of the origins of reformed thought, which is what seventeenth-century English theologians built their ideas upon. Religious debates of the day centered on the Puritan and Arminian divide, which contained significantly different ideas of soteriology, a key aspect of a good death in the English ars moriendi.

Summary Shamanism and especially the psychological health of shamans remain topics of considerable confusion. This article, therefore, examines the shamanic training process from a specifically psycho­ logical perspective. Much in this ancient tradition that formerly appeared arcane, nonsensical, or pathological is found to be under­ standable in psychological terms. The initial shamanic crisis is seen to be a culture-specific form of developmental crisis rather than being evidence of severe psychopathology. Commonalities are noted between certain shamanic training experiences and those of other religious traditions and various psychotherapies. Psychologically effective shamanic techniques are distinguished from merely super­ stitious practices and several shamanic techniques are seen to foreshadow ones now found in contemporary

  • GENESIS 1 – 3 and the CROSS the Connection Between the Gospel and the Creation Scriptures?
    GENESIS 1 – 3 AND THE CROSS The connection between the Gospel and the creation Scriptures? The story of the Bible begins with God in eternal glory before the beginning of time and history, and it ends with God and his redeemed people in eternal glory. At the center stands the cross, where God revealed his glory through his Son. The history of salvation is the grand overarching story of the Bible; embracing it gives coherence to all of life. It calls each of God's people to own the story personally and it dignifies each believer with a role in the further outworking of the story. The biblical story of redemption must be understood within the larger story of creation. First Adam, and later Israel, were placed in God's sanctuary… the Garden of Eden and the Promised Land, respectively. But both Adam and Israel failed to be a faithful, obedient steward, and both were expelled from the sanctuary God had created for them. But Jesus Christ—the second Adam, the son of Abraham, the son of David—was faithful and obedient to God. Though the world killed him, God raised him to life, which meant that death was defeated. Through his Spirit, God pours into sinners the resurrection life of his Son, creating a new humanity “in Christ.” Those who are “in Christ” move through death into new life and exaltation in God's sanctuary, there to enjoy his presence forever. Genesis and origins The English title “Genesis” comes from the Greek translation of the Pentateuch and means “origin,” a very apt title because Genesis is all about origins—of the world, of the human race, of sin, death, and of the Jewish people.

  • The Christian View of Life and Death
    The Christian View of Life and Death In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He [the Son] was with God [the Father] in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. (John 1:1-5) In the history of our universe, life came first…then death, suffering, and ruin as a consequence of an ancient tragedy. In the original languages, the sixty-six books of God’s Word (Bible) repeatedly speak of two kinds of life—physical and spiritual, as well as two kinds of death—physical and spiritual. At the creation, the first man—Adam, like the rest of the universe, was formed from molecular elements. “The Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life [spiritual] and man became a living being.” (Genesis 2:7) Adam had unique and transcendent attributes of intellect, emotions, and will--personhood. This personhood is a reflection [image] of God’s similar attributes. Initially, Adam had an intimate and loving relationship with his Creator. The first mention of death comes only ten verses later. And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die.” (Genesis 2:16, 17) Death means separation, not extinction or cessation.

  • Death and Life and the Bible Robin C
    Death and Life and the Bible Robin C. Calamaio freelygive-n.com Copyright 2006 – Edit 2019 Death first. Is death just a part of life? Is it simply an impersonal, random event with no hostile intent? All longevity models (evolution) think so. On the other hand, if death is imposed - that changes everything. What a massive understatement. Evolution and Biblical Creationism, are the two primary competitors in Western thought on origins. They are at great odds on this subject. Indeed, the two systems could not be more diametrically opposed. Here is a comparative review of these two belief systems. Compare point 1 to point 1, point 2 to point 2, etc. Evolution: 1. Death has been present from the beginning of life. 2. Death is natural and absolutely imperative to evolutionary progression. 3. All life has been dominated by death from the start. 4. Death did not “spread” to humans. As stated earlier, it has been present from life’s start. 5. Death may be an enemy from an individual’s point of view, but from an evolutionary view, it is a natural, and necessary, part of the progression of the species. 6. There is but one death for any living thing. Death forever extinguishes the individual life. 7. This existence is all that is. All will continue in random development just as all has randomly evolved. As long as there is life, death will be a universal constant. Biblical Creationism: 1. Death was totally absent from our completed, original heavens and earth. 2. Death is unnatural and was imposed as a judgement by God in response to Adam’s sin.
