The work includes two synoptic studies, the first concerning Jesus' exhortations according to Matthew and the second concerning Mark as tragedy. The former discusses Jesus' exhortations related to the Messiah, kingdom of heaven (God), the Scriptures, the community, its mission, and the consummation.

Some strange and unconvincing things are attributed to the Holy Spirit. Tragic consequences can often occur. This timely text attempts to distinguish the work of the Holy Spirit from such notable imposters as the human spirit, the conventional, and the demons.The study focuses on the two-volume work Luke/Acts. This, in turn, involves probing the tradition from which the teaching derives.The author has previously discussed the theology of Luke in the article "Interpreting Luke/Acts," The Literature and Meaning of Scripture (Inch and Bullock, eds.); and The Original Quest, subsumed under the corporate title Two Gospel Motifs. As for the Holy Spirit, consult the article "Manifestation of the Spirit" The Living and Active Word of God (Inch and Youngblood, eds.), and the Saga of the Spirit.Two pertinent appendices are included. First, concerning the obscure character of spirituality. Second, some random thoughts concerning the dogma of the Trinity. All things considered, the text is recommended for those who desire to put the work of the Holy Spirit in biblical perspective.

(Demetrius, a Greek Christian, living at the time of Paul ...)
Demetrius, a Greek Christian, living at the time of Paul and Barnabas' ministry in Syrian Antioch, struggles with the meaning of Christian discipleship. It is in this regard that we trace his experiences and listen to his discussions with others. The narrative embraces the trust of Pauline teaching concerning discipleship and classical references of a general nature--especially as relates to Greek philosophy, religion and culture of the times.

(While only 20% of professing Christians are said to evide...)
While only 20% of professing Christians are said to evidence a viable worldview, the space/time continuum provides a critical aspect. These sometimes called "cafeteria Christians" are inclined to pick and choose without a comprehensive perspective or means for constructive engagement. Seasoned author Morris A. Inch helps to close the gap between profession of faith and its vital expression. Like the satirical comment says, "When all else fails, read the instructions," Christians should reflect on what it means to live in God's world, by means of his grace. Author Bio: Morris A. Inch is 83 years of age and writes out of a virtual life-time of experience. He resides in Russellville, Arkansas. Mr. Inch's Web site is HYPERLINK http://geocities.com/inchcraft.

(The family is the primary influence in an individual's li...)
The family is the primary influence in an individual's life; one's home life when young has a profound impact on later disposition and behavior. The state of the family, therefore, has far reaching effects for modern culture as a whole. When the family suffers, so do not only the individual members but the culture itself. Thus, strengthening the family is of paramount importance for society as a whole. The Bible provides unique guidance for family matters, by way of pointed instruction and extensive illustration. What is needed in these modern times is a renewed look at the ways in which the family can be strengthened in the context of Biblical understanding. Thumbs Up for the Family provides invaluable instruction on how to enhance family life, along with extensive illustration by way of narrative; all of which is based on a sound scriptural foundation. Author Biography: Author Morris A. Inch has been a teacher and writer for most of his life. He has been on the faculty and in administration at Gordon College, Wenham, MA. He later spent twenty-four years on the faculty of Wheaton College, Wheaton, IL, seventeen of those as chair of the department of Biblical Studies. His last position was as president of the Institute of Holy Land Studies (subsequently renamed Jerusalem University College), Jerusalem, Israel. Dr. Inch has authored over forty books during the span of his long career as an educator. Publisher's website: http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/ThumbsUpForTheFamily.html

(Among the fundamental tenets of Judaism is the conviction...)
Among the fundamental tenets of Judaism is the conviction that the Messiah will redeem his people and usher in shalom (peace, well-being). Initiated in the Old Testament, this tradition winds its way through a variety of canonical and non-canonical sources with the Gospel of Matthew serving as a prime example. Morris Inch's new work casts the narrative of Matthew in terms of this vibrant Messianic tradition in an effort to gain fresh insights, explore ambiguous elements, and recognize unique contributions.

(In this book, Morris A. Inch examines two gospel motifs. ...)
In this book, Morris A. Inch examines two gospel motifs. The first concerns the gospel of Luke, characterized as the original quest (for the historical Jesus), and the second is associated with John's gospel, represented as the messianic theophany. These, taken together, likely reflect different apostolic missions, the former associated with Paul and the latter with John.

(Contemporary Christians fail to appreciate the pervasive ...)
Contemporary Christians fail to appreciate the pervasive devotion to the Psalter by earlier generations of believers. Devotions with David attempts to recapture that spiritual dynamic once embraced by Christian ancestors. Throughout this insightful expository on the psalms, Morris Inch draws upon events and considerations that have influenced Christian piety in times past. A thinking person's guidebook to devotional exercise, Devotions with David will appeal to all practicing Christians as well as Theologians.

Did you ever wonder what became of the 12 Apostles? Everyone is fascinated by the lives of the twelve apostles. Who were they? What happened to them? Where did they go?

It also includes interesting sidebar material on legends and myths associated with each apostle, and a handy reference list after each chapter leading the reader directly to the Bible for more information. This book will be a great encouragement for readers to see how God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things!

Sociologist Peter Berger supposes that there are a variety of over-lapping worlds that co-exist: cat world and human world. God's world is both distinctive yet contemporary with ours. This book contains a collectikon of devotional readings concerning two feline cousins, Casey and Tonka. It was pretested with junior age children and within the family circle.

This book consists of two motif studies. Freedom Trek and Gentiles Are Us qualify to be guiding motifs. Freedom Trek provides a critical insight into the dynamics of the wilderness wandering. Gentiles Are Us documents the author Morris Inch's realization of the implications of being a Gentile. These two studies expand on Inch's earlier treatment of Gospel motifs: The Original Quest and The Messianic Theophany.

MAN: The Perennial Question brings together essays that document a lifetime of reflection on the significance of man as cast in God's world starting with those written in the sixties and ending with the author's recent writing. The focus surrounds the question 'What is Man,' from Psalm 8:4, which Thomas Huxley referred to as the 'question of questions.' The author draws upon his broad experience as a professor and administrator in the United States, Israel, and Romania, presenting the writing that came out of his time spent gathering knowledge and observing the nature of man from the viewpoint of theological anthropology. The development of the author's views can be understood as he incorporates his knowledge of scripture and religion with his experience with various cultures and their responses to religion, to discover its effect on their nature as people, tackling the changing questions brought about as time passes.

In this book, Morris A. Inch probes the relevance of chaos theory for theological studies. The author first studies chaos in the context of Biblical theology, providing a survey of the Biblical narrative that touches on both the Old and the New Testaments. He proceeds with a more systematic approach, offering two representative studies concerning mankind and the Holy Spirit. In the third and final section, Inch delves into subsequent historical developments by means of a study of Augustine's 'The City of God.'

The work includes two synoptic studies, the first concerning Jesus' exhortations according to Matthew and the second concerning Mark as tragedy. The former discusses Jesus' exhortations related to the Messiah, kingdom of heaven (God), the Scriptures, the community, its mission, and the consummation. An introduction postures the study as to ethical-escatological alternatives. A brief epilogue summarizes some of the more critical findings. The latter study focuses on the classical division of tragedy: complication, crisis, and denouement. The sub-topics more or less correspond to the major divisions. We assume Mark's short ending as consistent with the structure of tragedy.
