Got salvation? What if salvation is not one more thing to acquire but an invitation to conform to Christ?
Christians often turn life--and faith--into one big consumption fest. We expect to get a good job, loving spouse, a life of comfort, personal satisfaction--oh, and salvation with a cherry on top. Our acquisitive impulse isn't limited to lattes and designer jeans; Christians in power throughout history have focused on getting people saved, possessing the land, and gaining dominance in government. But what if Christianity isn't about possessing but about renouncing? What if we are called not to treat salvation as one more thing to acquire but to conform to Christ?
Born Again and Again is the story of how a religion birthed on the margins of the Roman Empire became functionally the official religion of today's largest military superpower. Pastor and blogger Megan K. Westra takes on the consuming form of Christianity that has birthed the doctrine of discovery, planet-killing lifestyles, and civil religion. She leads readers into an encounter with the Jesus who gave up everything to come to us and invites us to give up everything to come to him. Conforming to Christ radically reorients our lives, priorities, and faith away from a mode of acquisition to a pattern of discipleship, setting us free from fear-based consumption and creating new possibilities for connection and belonging within the community of God's people.

Описание: Please include a 200-500 word descriptive paragraph which we could use for our website posting and brochures should a contract be signed: International law needs to be revised and changed radically because presently it is not able to function to protect human rights as it should. Most of the global economic transactions happen beyond states and are not under their control: in fact they are transnational, as are most of the worlds citizens interests and aspirations. Most states are now weak: corporations tend to control them indirectly, as well as provide citizens the services that used to be provided by states. In fact many legal scholars argue that states are now so weakened that they have become irrelevant, so that a law that is intended to be inter-national, that is between nations, ignores the global changes that have occurred supranationally, in the new transnational area controlled by non-state actors and various legal persons, some of which act in desirable ways, while many others are both dangerous and uncontrolled. The citizens of most nations are now transnational themselves, as they turn to new non-state actors and organizations that embody their interests and aspiration far better than the states where they live can: world citizens turn to the internet to follow their choices and interests as they have lost their trust in the home states, mostly unable to provide not only the services they used to provide, but also any hope of improvement or development. Hence, we argue that a law that is intended to operate exclusively between nations is no longer sufficient, as it is a system that neither includes nor regulates the real actors that contribute to global governance today, that is non-state actors and legal persons of various kinds. The foundational principles that inspired the most important international legal regimes for the protection of humanity, especially those forbidding racial discrimination, protecting the rights of women and children, of prisoners and others who are oppressed, which are no longer respected too many states , as political gain of various government parties supersede the respect for principles of protection. Many new problems that emerge then are simply ignored, from the grave problem of migration everywhere, to the loss of democratic power often controlled by the economic interests of the most powerful especially in the West, to the imminent disasters caused by climate change, all problems that are beyond the scope of any single nation to control. Therefore this work proposes a return to the basic principles that should govern international legal regimes in order to achieve a renewed, effective international system of laws.

Описание: Human rights were established in law many decades ago and were primarily intended to ensure that citizens could be protected from the absolute authority of the State. However, things are completely different today: first, the power of the state has declined substantially for many reasons, primarily the fact that a great number of functions, formerly performed by the state, have been taken over by private enterprises, who work for their own interest, nor for the public good. Moreover, these enterprises are no controlled either by domestic or by international legal instruments or organizations. The United Nations are nominally responsible for all the people of the world, according to their own Charter, but in this case as well, their authority is undermined by other entries keen to establish their power and to advance their economic interests, while the protection of human rights, of human life and dignity, are not considered. Finally, it is not only the legal infrastructure that has changed substantively, but the classic human rights of long ago are far different from the rights that need to be protected today. Climate change and the ongoing destruction of nature, the presence of land grabs, are now viewed as crimes against humanity, as they represent conditions that did not exist in earlier times. Similarly, the racist disregard for Indigenous Peoples and their rights are increasingly prevalent today. The conditions that exist today, where the threats to human health and life go far beyond what existed at the time human rights were established, such as the pandemic that reigns globally since 2019, has rendered our attempts to recover the respect and protection of human rights, which therefore require a radical reformulation.

Описание: This book is intended to focus the attention of scholars and policymakers on the ongoing land grabs that occur in all continents, as corporations, conglomerates and powerful governments ally themselves with those who reap economic profits from the dispossession of those who inhabit the lands. Often the dispossession takes place as a legal transaction, even as an internationally sanctioned form of so-called "sustainable development", something that, in reality, is neither sustainable, nor leading to the development of the communities indigenous to the land, who usually attempt to the best of their ability, to resist, and deny what they view as a forceful hostile occupation, of the lands which constitute their only source of sustenance. This book raises a grave question, as it asks, whether these dispositions might represent grave violations of the rights of peoples to be free from racial discrimination, and to their rights to their own resources and self-determination. When climate change is exacerbated by deforestation, in order to use the land for more profitable cash crops, then it is even possible to view the environmental disasters that ensue as crimes against humanity.
