Simon Peter The Reed And The Rock

Turning water into wine took Jesus a few minutes. Changing a reed (which 'Simon' means) into a rock ('Peter') took quite a few years. Which is the greater miracle, transmuting nature or transforming human nature? Many identify with Simon Peter's weaknesses, not least his knack of opening his mouth and putting his foot in it! On one occasion he even swore that he didn't know his best friend, just to save his own skin. Jesus taught this fisherman how to catch more fish, then how to catch people. He used that unruly tongue to preach the good news of his death and resurrection for the very first time, netting thousands for the kingdom of God. In this book David Pawson draws some unexpected lessons from Peter's failures and successes for both our individual and corporate lives as part of the Church of which Peter was the original pastor.

For over two hundred years people did not call on God by name. It wasnt until the birth of Adams grandson Enos, that men began to call upon the name of the Lord. God explained to Moses that He had appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Moses was given the task of returning to Egypt and demanding the release of the Israelite slaves. Moses asked God When I come unto the children of Israel and shall say unto them, the God of your fathers hath sent me unto thee, and they say to me, what is his name? What shall I say unto them. God said to Moses I AM THAT I AM and He said, thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, I AM has sent me to you. God goes on to say to Moses... Thus, you shall say to the sons of Israel, The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My Name forever, and this is My Memorial-Name to all generations. IAM Holy; Creator; The Most-High God; Righteous; Joy; Peace; Lord Mighty in Battle; God of the Battle; Conquer; High Tower and Strong Tower; Defender; Deliver; Thy Strength; Thy Sword; Thy Shield; Your Rock; The Wine; Your Fortress; Your Refuge; Shepherd; Kingsman Redeemer; Jubilee; Horn of thy Salvation; Sanctifier; Love; Mercy; Grace; Hope; Provider; Healer; Omnipresent; Omnipotent; Judge and Jealous. Now there are covenant names of Jehovah and redemptive names through which God revealed himself to Israel. These different names do not signify 40 different Gods, but HIS Characteristics, or HIS attributes.

This long-awaited, major volume shows how this Gospel is for all sorts and conditions of people, including the poor, women and, above all, sinners – with a marked emphasis on prayer, praise and adoration.

A gorgeous panoply of poems which abound with originality. I would describe Causeway as a Hymnody Ð a collection which contains musicality, artistry, prayerfulness and stunning wordcraft. Here are echoes of William Blake and John Bunyan in harmony with scripture, but the poets also confidently offer vitality and freshness as contemporary women exploring the joys and challenges of their relationship with God.
