La philosophie de la religion est la partie de la philosophie qui pose la question de savoir ce qu'est une religion. Elle etudie les definitions qui sont donnees de la religion ou bien cherche le concept de religion qui sous-tend les discours dits religieux. Selon Jean Greisch, la question fondamentale de la philosophie de la religion pourrait etre de resoudre la contradiction que pose l'emploi d'un mot suppose correspondre a une meme idee au singulier et au pluriel.

According to the former, "The Bible also uses Egyptian and Nubian names for the land and its people... For the Egyptians used to these color variations, the term for their southern neighbors was Nehesi, "southerner", which eventually also came to mean "the black" or "the Nubian".

It is best known today as the church of the Pilgrim Fathers where John Robinson was buried. In around 1100 the site held the county chapel of the counts of Holland, rebuilt in 1121.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Pietism was a movement within Lutheranism, lasting from the late 17th century to the mid-18th century and later. It proved to be very influential throughout Protestantism and Anabaptism, inspiring not only Anglican priest John Wesley to begin the Methodist movement, but also Alexander Mack to begin the Brethren movement. The Pietist movement combined the Lutheranism of the time with the Reformed, and especially Puritan, emphasis on individual piety, and a vigorous Christian life.

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In spiritual terminology, piety is Adam. While different people may understand its meaning differently, it is generally used to refer either to religious devotion or to spirituality, or often, a combination of both. A common element in most conceptions of piety is humility. The word piety comes from the Latin word pietas, the noun form of the adjective pius (which means "devout" or "good"). Pietas in traditional Latin usage expressed a complex, highly valued Roman virtue; a man with pietas respected his responsibilities to other people, gods and entities (such as the state), and understood his place in society...

A pilgrim badge is a badge typically made of base metal such as lead alloy or pewter from the medieval period worn by Roman Catholic pilgrims who had travelled to sites of Christian pilgrimage, such as in England Canterbury Cathedral, the site of the martyrdom of St. Thomas Becket. Their use flourished in the Middle Ages in Europe, particularly in the 14th and 15th centuries, but declined after the Protestant Reformation of the mid-16th century. Other sorts of badges were also worn by pilgrims, most famously the scallop shell associated with pilgrimages along the Way of St James to the shrine of Saint James at...

We live in perilous times where Christianity is emerging with occultism and eastern mysticism. Many Christian leaders are talking of re-thinking Christianity so that it is in tandem with other religious beliefs. This is being done under the semantics of peace, love, and unity but underneath it involves a fundamental denial of truth. Many evangelical leaders are confidently taking the broad way to Rome and are swaying other Christians to follow suit. Thousands of Christians have embraced experience based Christianity where emotions and experiences take precedent over the holy word of God. The church of the Lord Jesus Christ has been turned into a den of thieves, Wolves and profit makers. Many Christians have forsaken their first love...

Comiskey’s thesis is that reproduction or church multiplication is critical to all effective church planting. Thus, church planting must be simple enough to keep the process going. The first section lays out the Biblical basis for church planting. The book moves from the Biblical basis to the contemporary scene, showing why church planting is absolutely essential to keep up with the population growth. Comiskey also highlights the characteristics which make a modern day church planter successful. Comiskey draws from practical experiences to help those who are in the battle or are considering church planting. The second section goes into detail about church planting strategies, namely the cell church strategy and house church planting....

The Pneumatomachi, also known as Macedonians or Semi-Arians in Constantinople and the Tropici in Alexandria, were an anti-Nicene Creed sect which flourished in the countries adjacent to the Hellespont during the latter half of the fourth, and the beginning of the fifth century. They denied the divinity of the Holy Ghost, hence the Greek name Pneumatomachi or 'Combators against the Spirit'. Macedonius, their founder, was intruded into the See of Constantinople by the Arians (342 A.D.), and enthroned by Constantius, who had for the second time expelled Paul, the Catholic bishop.

"Pneumatosophy" (wisdom of the spirit) can be seen as part of his teachings on spiritual science and approaches the human spirit in terms of truth and error and the meaning and the effects of imagination, intuition, and inspiration. In some cases it will be difficult to understand the context between the subject matter and what is here termed pneumatosophy. Pneuma(Greek) literally "breath" or "wind." In the Bible is usually translated as "spirit." The suffix sophy stands for knowledge.
