Today's follower of Jesus exists at a moment in history when our desires, longings, and wants are being weaponized against us by cultural, spiritual, and relational forces. "Follow your heart" and "You do you" has become our moment's mantras. The result, for too many, is feeling torn asunder by the raging desires within. What do we do with our desire? What about our unwanted desires? And how do we cultivate desires which bring life and freedom and lead to Christ? The Gift of Thorns, by A. J. Swoboda, addresses these questions and more. The path forward is anything but easy. It is assumed by too many in the Christian community that desire is in and of itself bad or dangerous and must be crucified for simply existing. Desire is demonic for some. But, for many others--particularly in the secular West--desire must be followed through and through. This side deifies desire. But these two options sidestep the joy in the great challenge of finding God in our desire. There exists an ancient and sacred way that is forged around the life, wisdom, and power of Jesus and his Spirit. In short, what makes a follower of Christ is not whether or not we have desires. Rather, it is what we do with the desires we have. Near the end of the story of humanity's rebellion, the theme of "thorns" is introduced. As readers will discover, the thematic repetition of "thorns" pops up over and over throughout the Bible. What are the thorns for? They will be, in the words of God, "for you" (Gen. 3:18). The premise of this book is that a world where we do not get all that we want is, well, the greatest gift ever.

If you have ever heard about what some refer to as "Paul's thorn in the flesh" and wondered what it was? Then this book is a "must read!" Some say the Apostle Paul had a nagging wife; others say that he had arthritis, or an eye disease that was so repugnant that people could hardly stand to look upon him because of the puss that poured from his eyes! But what does the Bible teach regarding this "thorn in the flesh?" Thorns can be serious irritations that can immobilize, distract and stop you in your tracks. In time of war, armies will place land mines in strategic places to stop or hinder advancing enemy troops, and that is exactly why Satan sends "thorns in the flesh" our way! Thorns in the flesh are "messengers of Satan" sent (by SATAN) to buffet us in an attempt to stop us from sharing the Gospel. In this book you will learn that God is not using the devil's messenger service or sending thorns our way!

In this book, we will explore the mystery of the thorn in the flesh. Paul stated that God had given him a thorn in his flesh in order to keep him humble because of the revelation that was in his life. However, there has been much controversy over what the thorn in his flesh was, and how God could allow such a thing to exist. In addition, there are Christians claiming that certain afflictions in their lives are a "thorn in the flesh," when they may not be. Therefore, we will endeavor to bring understanding to these concerns and discover what impact this has upon the believer today.

The massive fire that destroyed Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris on April 15, 2019, reopened discussions about the Crown of Thorns, one of Christianity's most revered "Relics of Christ." The story of the Crown of Thorns begins with the Gospel According to Mark, the first written chronologically and most likely the closest to the original Hebrew version of the Story of Jesus. No Hebrew version has survived - at least none is known. A "Hebrew Mark" is a hypothesis that is still resisted by Markan scholars who continue to rely on the writings of Early Church Fathers, whom they assume to be trustworthy. This seems strange because they've already found evidence that the Fathers lied about another related claim: Papias, Bishop of Hierapolis (circa 60 to circa 163 CE), wrote the Exposition of the Sayings of the Lord in five books. It is known through brief excerpts by Irenaeus of Lyons (circa180) and Eusebius of Caesarea (circa 320). Among his many claims is that Matthew's gospel was written first, and in Hebrew, a claim repeated by Jerome (circa 327 to 420). However, it has been universally discounted by textual examination and modern scholarship in general. According to Jerome, all the Jewish Christian communities shared a single gospel, identical with the Hebrew or Aramaic Matthew. Furthermore, he claimed to have personally found this gospel in use among some communities in Syria. He also claimed to have seen a gospel in Aramaic that contained all the quotations he assigns to it; however, scholars have been able to prove that some of them could never have existed in a Semitic language. Jerome's claim that he produced all the translations himself is also suspect because Origen and Eusebius before him used the same quotations. Jerome appears to have assigned these quotations to the Gospel of the Hebrews, but scholars argue it is more likely that there were at least two and probably three ancient Jewish-Christian gospels, only one of them in a Semitic language. That "one...in a Semitic language" is the original version of what became Mark's Gospel. In other words, the Fathers from Papias to Jerome and beyond lied! What were they trying to hide? Papias' reason for inventing this lie, and Jerome's reason for adding more lies and passing them on, was to distract from the fact that Mark's gospel was chronologically first, and it was written in Hebrew, and they knew it. And they feared "The Secret of the Kingdom of LHM" could be easily revealed when the Gospel was translated from the Hebrew language using Philo's Rules. The "Hebrew Matthew Proto-Primacy" lie was created to hide the reason Jesus was called "The Nazarene." It was not because he came from Nazareth (Mt 2:23). It was the fact that Mark's story of "Jesus the Nazarene" was a revival of the story of "Joseph the Nazar" in Genesis, the freedman who became Vizier over all of Egypt. If the goal is to find the Historical Jesus and the true story of the Crown of Thorns, the focus must be on the Hebrew-language Gospel According to Mark before it was translated into Greek and falsified to promote the Orthodox agenda. And as always, Philo's Rules must be employed in order to identify and interpret enigmas carefully placed throughout scripture. Jesus and Mary Magdalene, and their family, went to great lengths to preserve the truth so it could be revealed at a later time of great need. Today, is a time of great need to find the truth about the Historical Jesus. Following Philo leads to many truths about the man called "Jesus" that have been withheld for more than two thousand years.

What does the church believe? Every church has a driving confession, but what is the confession of a true and biblical church? The Heart of the Church answers with the gospel. It explains the story of the gospel, its basic doctrines, and God’s work in salvation. Fresh yet consistent with classic expressions, it helps churches reclaim their essential identity and return from distracting pursuits. Useful for training in membership classes, discipleship groups, and elder boards—and even for devotional reading—The Heart of the Church is at once theological, practical, and experiential. Readers will not simply be informed, but led to believe in, rejoice in, and be transformed by the truth of God for His gathered people. Without the gospel, the church does not exist. This book is Thorn’s full and detailed exploration of the message that is indispensable to the church’s life and identity. For any church lacking power, any Christian feeling dry, or any person seeking truth, The Heart of the Church brings relief, direction, and light, leading to worship.

What happens when the pain just won't go away? Do you want the prickly, uncomfortable thorn in your flesh to go away? R.T. Kendall wants you to know that God gives you thorns for your benefit. Most people think of this discomfort as a physical pain, but Kendall explains how God gets your attention through loneliness, a handicap or disability, an enemy, an unhappy marriage, personality problem, and more. Kendall helps you understand how God's grace is sufficient as he answers questions like: *What are the advantages to loneliness? *Why does God use an enemy to refine you? *How can a handicap or disability offer you the most dazzling reward in heaven? *What did Abraham and Moses learn from experiencing unhappy living conditions?Believe that your thorn in the flesh is for your good, and that it is the best thing that will ever happen to you-next to your conversion and anointing. It is time for believers to accept that God has allowed life's splinters for a victorious purpose of humility and not taking life too seriously. Denial and repression will not change a thing, but knowing and recognizing God's love will impact lives and turn negative attitudes into positive rewards.
