دانلود کتاب The Vanishing Word: The Veneration of Visual Imagery in the Postmodern World (Focal Point Series)

There are very few books I have read that have impressed me like this book. The author writes a clear and interesting history of the necessity of the commanded obedience of faith in what God has said (without a "seen" image or experience) versus the lies of the this world requiring a "seen" image. From the beginning in the Garden of Eden to Egypt to the propaganda used by Germany in the World Wars to the present "idols" used by the Church today (and I don't mean statues, I mean shallow music and "performance-driven" services)to where we are being lead to in the last days.

This book will humble you and inspire you. This is a book for "everyone" to read! It is well-written and an enjoyable read. It is NOT one of the boring intellectual books that you grow tired because you cannot understand it- it will hold you until the end.

I have been so inspired by this book, I have purchased 15 copies over the years to just give to people to read- it is that important for the Christian Church in this present age.
