Guds Ord til vor tid Budskaber fra en guddommelig dialog mellem den hellige Treenighed, Jomfru Maria og englene med menneskeheden gennem Vassula Rydén. Budskabernes hovedtema for vor tid er forsoning – forsoning mellem Gud og den enkelte, mellem mennesker, i familien og ikke mindst blandt de kristne kirker. Sandt liv i Gud budskaberne fortæller os igen og igen, at Gud eksisterer, at Han elsker os, og at Han sørger over verdens nuværende tilstand og den menneskeskabte adskillelse, der eksisterer blandt de kristne kirker. I budskabet kalder Gud os til omgående at angre vore synder, vende os til Gud og genforene os med Ham. Fred, kærlighed og enhed er tilbagevendende temaer.
I Bibelen står de store fortællinger i kø. På én gang religiøse og eksistentielle grundfortællinger og vigtig kulturarv. Her kan man læse og lytte og blive klogere på sig selv, på vores kultur og på den store fortælling om Gud og mennesker.Teksterne til Det Gamle Testamente – ”Den Gamle Aftale” – er fra ”Bibelen 2020”. ”Bibelen 2020” er Bibelen i en nudansk oversættelse, hvor flow og forståelse er i fokus. Den er oversat fra grundsprogene af eksperter i hebraisk, græsk og moderne dansk.Det Gamle Testamente – ”Den Gamle Aftale” – er første del af Bibelen. Det begynder med fortællingerne om, hvordan Gud skabte verden. Med Adam og Eva og slangen i Edens have. Med Gud, der sender dem ud af haven til et liv med smerte og hårdt arbejde. Med Noa, der bygger et skib og redder dyrene og sin familie, da jorden bliver oversvømmet. Med Gud, der rejser en regnbue over jorden. Derpå følger en lang og dramatisk historie om forholdet mellem Gud og menneskene, mellem Gud og israelitterne. For hvad sker der, når folket ikke vil følge den aftale, de har indgået med Gud?Det Gamle Testamente udgøres af 39 bøger fordelt i fire hovedgrupper: Loven, Historien, Visdomsskrifterne og Profeterne. Loven er de fem Mosebøger, de første fem bøger i Bibelen. Derefter følger Historien, som starter med Josvabogen (6. bog) og slutter ved Esters Bog (17. bog). Visdomsskrifterne tæller Jobs Bog (18. bog), Salmernes Bog (19. bog), Ordsprogenes Bog (20. bog), Prædikerens Bog (21. bog) og Højsangen (22. bog) – Bibelens store poesi. Til sidst følger Profeterne. Der er 17 i alt, de største hedder Esajas (23. bog), Jeremias (24. bog), Ezekiel (26. bog) og Daniel (27. bog).
Diarmaid MacCulloch's epic, acclaimed history A History of Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years follows the story of Christianity around the globe, from ancient Palestine to contemporary China. How did an obscure personality cult come to be the world's biggest religion, with a third of humanity its followers? This book, now the most comprehensive and up to date single volume work in English, describes not only the main facts, ideas and personalities of Christian history, its organization and spirituality, but how it has changed politics, sex, and human society. Taking in wars, empires, reformers, apostles, sects, churches and crusaders, Diarmaid MacCulloch shows how Christianity has brought humanity to the most terrible acts of cruelty - and inspired its most sublime accomplishments. 'A stunning tour de force' Simon Sebag Montefiore

Witchcraft, astrology, divination and every kind of popular magic flourished in England during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, from the belief that a blessed amulet could prevent the assaults of the Devil to the use of the same charms to recover stolen goods. At the same time the Protestant Reformation attempted to take the magic out of religion, and scientists were developing new explanations of the universe. Keith Thomas's classic analysis of beliefs held on every level of English society begins with the collapse of the medieval Church and ends with the changing intellectual atmosphere around 1700, when science and rationalism began to challenge the older systems of belief.

The bestselling historian of early Christianity takes on two of the most gripping questions of human existence - where did the ideas of heaven and hell come from, and why do they endure?
Siden 11. september 2001 har en aggressiv og overfladisk religionskritik domineret den offentlige debat om religion og kristendom i Danmark såvel som i udlandet. Religionskritikken kommer fra en gruppe fundamentalistiske ateister, der går under den samlede betegnelse ”den ny ateisme”. Bestsellerforfatterne Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris og Christopher Hitchens står i spidsen for den nyateistiske bevægelse, der i USA har givet sig selv navnet The Bright Movement, en bevægelse af ”lysende begavelser”, der har indledt en omfattende kampagne mod ”åndsformørkede” troende. I Danmark blæser antireligiøse foreninger som Ateistisk Selskab og Humanistisk Samfund til kamp mod folkekirken med det formål at rense det offentlige rum for religion. Samtidig med den stærkt karikerende polemik imod religionen og især kristendommen udbreder disse nyateister et biologistisk menneskesyn, der hævder, at evolutionspsykologi og hjerneforskning kan fortælle hele sandheden om mennesket og forbedre menneskets natur gennem biopolitik og psykoteknologi. I et frit samfund skal der være plads til både religionskritik og ateismekritik, men det sidste har længe været forsømt. Med GUDLØSE HJERNER retter Lars Christiansen og Lars Sandbeck op på dette misforhold og demonstrerer, at nyateisternes kristendomskritik er forfejlet, at det biologistiske menneskesyn er etisk og politisk farligt, og at nyateismen grundlæggende må anskues som en utopisk bevægelse, der tror på forløsning gennem videnskab.

Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.The Father of Existentialism, Kierkegaard transformed philosophy with his conviction that we must all create our own nature; in this great work of religious anxiety, he argues that a true understanding of God can only be attained by making a personal 'leap of faith'.

Founded in the early twelfth century, allegedly to protect pilgrims to the Holy Land, the Knights Templar became famous for their pioneer banking system, crusading zeal, and strict vows of obedience, chastity and poverty. Having grown to some 15,000 men, they came to be perceived as a threat by Philip the Fair, who in 1307 disbanded the group and tortured their leaders for confessions. The French king accused the order of heresy, sodomy and blasphemy. Recent works of fiction and popular histories have created a resurgence of interest in the mysterious Knights Templar. Numerous contradictory and fantastic claims are made about them, adding to the enigma that already surrounds the warrior monks of France. In this unique collection of lecture material and writings from Rudolf Steiner, a new perspective emerges. Based on his spiritual perceptions, Steiner speaks of the Templars' connection to the esoteric tradition of St John, their relationship with the Holy Grail, and their spiritual dedication to Christ. He describes the secret order that existed within the Templars, and the strange rituals they performed. He also throws light on the Templars' attitude to the Roman Church, and the spiritual forces that inspired their torture and confessions.
