Love’S Lure: God’S Project People

A Third Millennium Vision

By: John Ford

We were created, designed, in Gods image, but God will always be a mystery to our minds, bound as they are by time and space. By attempting to achieve atonement with God, a state of harmony and oneness, we can realize our true purposesharing in the boundless love with which God has bequeathed us and with which he provided the spark for our evolution to begin. Our evolution continues as we move into the future, and we can no longer afford to let our faith and our thinking be influenced by ancient beliefs. In Loves Lure: Gods Project People: A Third Millennium Vision, author John Ford seeks to bridge the gap between theology and science by examining how Gods Word speaks to us in the present and transforms our modern understanding of truth, spirit, and love. With his intimate knowledge of Scripture, Ford helps us explore the nature of Godhead and Jesuss life and teachings as they contribute to the redefinition of faithtruth lies in what God says to us now, and in following his loving example. Every disaster and mishap should be regarded as an opportunity for the outpouring of love and represents a chance to work tirelessly for positive change. We are all engaged in Gods ongoing venture to create beings in harmony with him, but how we let his work touch our hearts is always up to us.

Aelred of Rievaulx

Pursuing Perfect Happiness

By: John R. Sommerfeldt

For the medieval Cistercian abbot Aelred of Rievaulx, human beings are capable of happiness because human nature is good-but the self-defeating choices of humans have led to their misery. A loving God leads humans to happiness by nudging their free wills toward choosing the good and then, if they respond positively, giving them the power to realize that good. The power, or virtue, which perfects the human intellect is humility, which is not meekness but self-knowledge, gained through introspection and meditation on and through nature and Scripture. The will is perfected through love, without which no human act is good. Love for oneself, for others, and for God are complementary, not competing acts of the will. A special way of loving is firiendship, on which Aelred's teaching is perhaps the most complete and most sophisticated in the history of Christian thought. Perfection is, for Aelred, attainable in this life, since he sees perfection as a process, not a static condition. That condition will be attained in the total fulfillment of the afterlife.

A Pen Named Man: Our Essence

By: John W. Newton

A person cannot create a butterfly out of non-living components and breathe life into it. Neither can he construct a star like our sun nor a magnificent celestial body like planet Earth. God, however, can do these things and more! Although a human being cannot create a butterfly, he can live a good and decent life and serve as God's representative on Earth by becoming the gardener and governor of Nature. The one thing we know of our spiritual element, or soul, is that it's derived from God and sustains our biological and non-biological realms. In A Pen Named Man: Our Essence we focus on the worldly components of man, that is, those components we can sense, touch, and feel. Hence, we identify and discuss the physical side of man with its several body systems as well as the mental side with its rational and emotive elements. A central theme involves the need to synthesize the physiological and psychological components into a compatible and workable union, such that the drives and needs of neither realm dominate one's behavior in an unrealistic, unattainable manner. Human values are debated relative to being permanent and good for all time vs. temporary and adjusted with time and circumstance. Two significant values under review deal with the justification for taking another person's life and the morality of sexual involvement inside and outside of marriage. The emotion of love is discussed in detail.

A Theory of Justice

By: John Rawls

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

A Theory of Justice

By: John Rawls

In this work the author argues that the correct principles of justice are those that would be agreed to by free and rational persons, placed in the original position behind a veil of ignorance: not knowing their own place in society; their class, race, or sex; their abilities, intelligence, or strengths; or even their conception ofthe good. Accordingly, he derives two principles of justice to regulate the distribution of liberties, and of social and economic goods. In this new edition the work is presented as Rawls himself wishes it to be transmitted to posterity, with numerous minor revisions and amendments and a new Preface in which Rawls reflects on his presentation of his thesis and explains how and why he has revised it.
