Showing results for "Evolution" in Christian Living

What if your faith was never meant to be blind… but understood? Most people grow up being told what to believe. Few ever stop to ask why. The Evolution of the Bible is not about destroying faith… It's about examining it. This book takes you on a journey through: The origins of the Bible. The power structures behind its influence. The questions many people are afraid to ask. The space between belief, doubt, and truth. It doesn't tell you what to think. It challenges you to think for yourself. Because real faith…is not about avoiding questions—it's about having the courage to face them.

Marcus J. Borg, esteemed Bible scholar and best-selling author, shakes up the order of the New Testament as we know it by putting the books in a completely new order - the order in which they were written. By doing so, Evolution of the Word allows us to experience these documents in their historical context. For the first time, see how the core ideas of Christianity took shape and developed over time.

Within the chapters, I present some of the biggest questions that remain unanswered by the proposed Theory of Evolution. It might be said by proponents of the theory that it is “ridiculous” to question it because science has yielded all of the answers that are needed, to bring substantiation for everything that exists having come from an unguided, non-purposed, undirected impersonal process called “evolution”.

¿Pero cómo se llegó de aquella historia en la Biblia - una joven judía dando a luz al mesías de Israel en un pesebre en la ciudad de Belén - a la Navidad moderna? La respuesta es que están ahí porque, a lo largo de veinte siglos, hubo una cadena de acontecimientos, personajes, tradiciones orales, obras artísticas que se unieron para hacer de la Navidad la estación para compartir, abrazarse, reencontrar a la familia, dar regalos y mucha azúcar a los niños....

In the Colosseum of Ancient Rome, it was not uncommon for Christians to be thrown to the lions. This was a one-sided public spectacle that was meant to intimidate Christians into complying with the social order of the day. This ancient fact stands as a modern-day analogy between evolution and creationism. Let me explain. In almost every mode of media, including in our children’s textbooks, evolution is referred to as an unquestioned fact. If anyone dares to speak against it, or even mentions “creation” as an option, they will be thrown to the lions of public disdain.

La Navidad es la fiesta más importante del año. Después de los días correspondientes que exaltan el orgullo nacional de cada país, como el Día de la Independencia en Estados Unidos, el Día de la Victoria en rusia o el Día de la Bastilla en Francia, es el 25 de diciembre el que articula la vida, el trabajo y la economía en buena parte del mundo, incluidos muchos países no cristianos. Desde tiempos antiguos, el comienzo del invierno ha sido la ocasión para que la mayoría de la gente coma, beba, baile y se reúna para tocar el tambor y tomar un descanso.
