Olivier-Thomas Venard's Thomas d'Aquin poète théologien trilogy, an in depth analysis of the scripture of St. Thomas Aquinas, is translated for a new audience in this streamlined anthology. Featuring selections from all three books in the trilogy, chosen in accordance with Venard's direction and discernment, it introduces not only arguments pertinent to the theme of this volume, but an invitation to explore the full breadth of Venard's work. Concentrating on the subjects of scripture, theology and literature, language as a theological question and the word of God, Murphy and Oakes capture the scope and energy of Venard's trilogy while collating many of its key passages. Ranging from the themes of a poetic gospel and Christology to the Thomist theories of semiology and the metaphysics of the Word, this volume sets scholars on the path to a deeper understanding of Aquinas's systematic theology.

What comes to your mind when you think about Jesus Christ? Do you think of Him as a man of peace? A nice guy? A moral teacher? A prophet? The Gospel of Mark certainly did not portray Jesus of Nazareth as a person who brought peace. In fact, the Gospel of Mark portrayed Jesus Christ as a troublemaker and a rebel. Jesus of Nazareth definitely was not a team player. He offended religious leaders of His time, the Pharisees and the Temple priests. They even wanted to kill Him. What was it that Jesus did that made some people hate Him so much as to try to kill him? What was His message? Although there were those who sought to kill Jesus, He had a large following. Many people adored Him. Some even traveled many miles on foot to see Him and hear His Word. What was it about Jesus Christ that attracted all these people? These are some of the questions that H.C. Kim tries to answer through his poetry. These poems will move you in ways that you have not imagined possible.

For the past two thousand years, Jesus Christ has been one of the greatest gifts and one of the greatest mysteries in the world. History is full of books and poems that honor and glorify Jesus, and many scholars have studied Jesus' teachings. In The Invisible Poet for the first time, Jesus Christ emerges not only as the Son of God but also as the greatest poet who has ever lived. This book studies Jesus' words in their original poetic form, the same form that the Disciples heard directly from Christ. Jesus Christ : The Invisible Poet examines Jesus' use of Hebrew poetic traditions in his parables and poetry, bringing a new understanding to the gospels and message of Christ. Now you can experience Jesus' teachings in their original, ancient tradition. Despite this proliferation of poetry throughout the Bible, readers rarely equate Scripture with poetry, perhaps because we are most accustomed to reading poetry written in the Western tradition. To the Western eye, Scripture initially appears more like prose than poetry, mainly because Scripture typically does not rhyme. Therein lies the key to missing Christ's importance as a poet. Jesus was a poet of Hebrew tradition; Jesus worked in the language of poetics and he used poetry to share his Gospel. This book concludes beyond question that Jesus is the greatest poet of all time, that he is the invisible poet in his parables and proclamations, working all the while within traditional Hebrew poetic structure. Jesus is indeed a personality who worked for the betterment of humanity. This book traces the Master in his use of every substantial form of Hebrew poetry. Having such a demonstration of poetic mastery, we may well inquire with the wondering throng at Jerusalem, when they heard the gracious words which proceeded out of His mouth. "How," said they, "does this Man know letters, having never learned.?" It is the perennial wonder of mediocrity in the presence of genius. Let us then not deny him this praise, which even his enemies were forced to concede. We may hail Jesus as the Man of Letters. In presenting the poems of Jesus, we may well begin with Matthew, for this Gospel professedly contains his Logia, set forth at length, and hence we may expect that here, if anywhere, the form will have been preserved. It would be unreasonable to look for the exactness that the original text might possess. However, a certain sympathy also exists between the English version and the more primitive language; that sympathy has tended to recover the balance of expression. In part, the sympathy is due to the tremendous influence of the Scriptures in the development of English speech; it also arises from the fact that the first crude rendition of the Scriptures into the common speech of the Anglo-Saxons was by certain wandering bards who chanted the story of the Christ, and thus associated the gospels with a melodic flavor that has characterized all subsequent versions. The conclusion on this subject is very simple and practical: despite the fact that much of its poetic essence has been lost over time, Christ's words can be studied today through the prism of poetry, on the level of theory. If we look at religious ceremonies and rituals of almost all Christian denominations and religious communities, we notice that believers in fact sing the verses of the gospel and Christ's words. No matter what the particular language is, or the translation, the essential nature of Jesus' legacy is a lyrical one. In any language, Jesus emerges as the greatest poet the world has known.

The words of Jesus Christ are restored to their original poetic form in this extraordinary volume. Jesus Christ, whose teachings have been on the lips of millions for two millennia, is revealed here as one of the greatest poets of all time. What happened to deafen us to the poetic nature of his words? In migrating from Aramaic speech into written Greek translation, and later into English translation, the lyrics got locked up as prose. In The Poems of Jesus Christ Willis Barnstone unveils the essential poetry of the Gospels by taking the direct speech of Jesus from Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John, and lineating and titling Jesus’s words as individual poems. Jesus’s poems are wisdom lyrics and narrative parables, rich with garden, animal, and nature imagery. Austere and poignant, they carry the totality of the Gospels’ message through the intensity of a single voice––the Gospel of Jesus.

Jamie Hill is a happily married, mother of three. There is nothing extraordinary about her, with the exception that she is a child of the Almighty God. Many of her poems describe her life. She was born in Helena, MT and raised most of her life in Mississippi. As a child she spent much of her time in and out of children's shelters and foster homes. She came from a broken home of drugs and alcohol. Many times in her life she came near death through rape, drugs, and suicide attempts. If it had not been for the Lord on her side she probably wouldn't be alive to write this book, but through prayers and "mustard seed" faith she's alive and well enough to share her testimony of how she made it through On April 29, 2007 she came out of a horrible addiction of crack-cocaine and alcohol. She committed her life to God through the precious blood of Jesus. She since has been cleansed and remains filled with the Holy Ghost. She gives all the credit where it is due to the Lord Almighty, Jesus Christ who shed His blood on Calvary to save a wretch like herself. She says that her life is like a familiar song sang by the "Williams Brothers," "I'm just a nobody, trying to tell everybody about somebody who can save anybody."

The poetry collection Poems to Jesus Christ Volume III: The Holy Spirit is about the spiritual journey of a mans soul through his discovery of his gift for writing poetry when he experienced a spiritual awakening while he was teaching poor people in Asia. The poet went through a three-year-long depression trying to understand what God wanted him to do with his life after his return to America. The following poems were inspired during this rebirth of his talent, which brought out the best of his gift for poetry while making his faith in God stronger. This book completes the poets spiritual journey and his promise to Jesus Christ to write three books of spiritual poetry as a thank-you gift to Jesus Christ, God, and the Holy Spirit for always being by his side and saving his life so many times and helping him get out of his depression. The first book described to God the pain of the world, sadness, and sorrow. The second book included more happier and optimistic prayers written in poetic form. The third book completes the circle of happiness and evolution of the poets return to the world and to happiness, focusing on the beauty of life.

We are all familiar with the biography of the Son of God, Jesus Christ. Most of us learned about him through the stories told about and by him in the Bible. There are, however, other ways to learn about Jesus Christ, his life, and his love. Rob Garnes's A Perfect Him is a biography of Jesus Christ told through poetry. It begins with Old Testament prophecy and proceeds through his young life and introduction to the ministry. The poems conclude with his crucifixion, burial, and resurrection. Readers will also find a poetic study of the parables Christ used during his ministry. A Perfect Him is relevant for everyone, no matter where they are in their spiritual walk with Christ. For one seeking Christ, the poems can be used as a guide, as the gospel is fully explained within the poems. For a new Christian, the poems may be used as a study resource in their developing journey. Finally, for the mature Christian, the poems offer a great devotional.

The poems are from GOD, using June Pierce-Hampton as the messenger. It is so amazing, once the title for the poem was established; the words flowed from GOD's spirit through her spirit onto paper. June was amazed after writing the poetry of the effect it had on her and others she read them to. After writing the poems, she decided to try and reference the poems with the Kings James Version of the Bible; they all were there! Every poem could be related to a Book, Chapter and Verse. In some cases, there were more than one or two scriptures that corresponded to some of the poems. This is GOD sent, GOD given and received for GOD's proposes! The poetry in this book is for uplifting and giving one hope, security and happiness by believing and trusting in our CREATOR, and HIS SON, JESUS. Thus, June decided to name the manuscript POETRY FROM CHRIST.
