The Legends of Astorynia

War of Wars Ending

By: Brian G. Padgett

The Legends of Astorynia When a young Elf named Keagle meets a wise wandering wizard called Mannus, his small-time adventures become a grand one in this thrilling and epic action-adventure fantasy of one world uniting against an ancient evil. In the world of Astorynia (Astor-eenie-uh) as war is ever wavering on the horizon, a group of companions, led by Mannus, travel the lands to bring together and unite the armies of Elves, Gnomes, Dwarves, Gruflyn, and Man against the ever-growing evil that is spreading. They strive to bring the People's Army together one last time to put an end to this menace. The vile creatures of the southernmost mountains of Shadowrock are led by a wicked sorceress known as Veldora. She leads this evil army of Vurkyn into battle against all the peoples of all the lands of Astorynia, to try and take the world for reasons all her own. She must be stopped at all costs, and the company of companions are the ones to get the job done. With the help of a guardian dragon, they go to war to destroy this evil once and for all. This is the story of the final war to end all war in the world of Astorynia.

The Reality of God and the Problem of Evil

The Reality of God and the Problem of Evil

By: Brian Davies

An important new book on how we can still believe in a God of love and confront the problem of evil in the world. Probably the most important book on the subject since John Hick's book `Evil and the God of Love`. &; Evil is a strong word that people now employ fairly rarely. Many people believe these days that God is omnipotent,omniscient and good and that what we deem to be bad or evil in the world is no reason for abandoning belief in God. It is an intellectual or theoretical problem not one where the focus is on how one might bring about some desirable goal ( a practical matter). &; Professor Davies says we should tackle this problem by attending to the basics, by asking whether there is a God and then What is God? he starts by summarizing the arguments so far (from Seneca to the present day). He then moves to what he describes as the basics (see above) and demonstrates that much of what has been written about on the topic of evil is in fact irrelevant or just plain wrong. &; Finally, though many theologians argue that evil is a mystery, Davies argues that this too is wrong and a cop out. We should rather be concerned with the problem (or mystery) of good. The real issue is ` Why is there not more good than there is`. From the discussion Aquinas emerges as a hero (as filtered through analytical philosophy) but many moderns thinkers do not emerge so well. Davies effectively picks holes int e arguments of Peter Geach, Paul Helm, Richard Swinburne and even Mary Baker Eddy. &; This is a lively book on a tricky subject, written at all times with humour and much practical example.

Living in the Flesh by the Spirit

The Pauline View of Flesh and Spirit in Galatians

By: Brian H. Thomas

What does Paul mean by “the flesh”? There is a great deal of confusion among laymen and disagreement among scholars on this issue. Christians know that we are supposed to “walk by the Spirit” so that they will not gratify the desires of the flesh, but it is not entirely clear what these expressions mean. Furthermore, Paul can also be confusing when he addresses the Christian’s relationship to the flesh—are we in the flesh or not? This book clarifies these issues for us by exploring the different meanings of “flesh” throughout the Bible, and analyzing the influence both of Old Testament conceptions of “flesh” as well as new salvation-historical realities on Paul’s thinking, especially in the context of the controversy over circumcision in Galatians. By carefully following Paul’s thought, we will also gain greater insight into other Pauline themes that intersect with his theology of the flesh: new creation and his view of this age and the one to come. Most importantly, we will discover Paul’s own program for our spiritual transformation so that we may live a life of Christlike love and service despite the moral weakness of our flesh.
