What Shall We Do? - Bok av Joseph M Lear - Häftad

What Shall We Do? - Bok av Joseph M Lear - Häftad

Since the 1960s, biblical scholars have noted a relationship between eschatology and ethics in Luke-Acts, but to date there has been no substantive study of the relationship between these themes. What Shall We Do? offers such a study. Lear observes and develops a logic that Luke--Acts presents that begins with eschatological expectation and ends with a particular pattern of life, especially with regard to possessions. He makes the bold claim that Luke has not given up on eschatological expectation...

Who Do the Ngimurok Say That They Are? - Bok av Kevin Lines - Häftad

Who Do the Ngimurok Say That They Are? - Bok av Kevin Lines - Häftad

How do missiologists describe the cosmologies of those that Christianity encounters around the world? Our descriptions often end up filtered through our own Western religious categories. Furthermore, indigenous Christians adopt these Western religious categories. This presents the problem of local Christianities, described by Kwame Bediako as those that \\have not known how to relate to their traditional culture in terms other than those of denunciation or of separateness.\\Kevin Lines's phenomenological..

Do You Now Believe? - Bok av Pamela E Hedrick - Häftad

Do You Now Believe? - Bok av Pamela E Hedrick - Häftad

\Can anything good come from Nazareth?\ Questions by their very nature are provocative: they provoke answers. Questions emerge from the desires of the human spirit. Questions lead to insight into the new, but those insights can be blocked by preconceptions that obscure present experience, including experience of the divine presence. At the same time, human beings cannot make progress in understanding without some amount of belief, which liberates understanding. Jesus faced these concerns in the..

Dispersing the Clouds of Temptation - Bok av Brian Lightbody - Häftad

Dispersing the Clouds of Temptation - Bok av Brian Lightbody - Häftad

In Romans 7:14-25, Paul declares, \\For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want, is what I do\\ (KJV). St. Paul's statement is a universal truth for all human beings; humans--whether Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, or atheists--are prone to committing free actions that are not \\good.\\ Furthermore, and irrespective of how we might construe the notion of \\good\\ (whether as acting in accordance with some religious or spiritual precept or simply doing what..

Renewal Apologetics - Bok av Christopher J Wilson - Häftad

Renewal Apologetics - Bok av Christopher J Wilson - Häftad

Why do you believe in God? Why do you believe in the Bible? Why do you believe in miracles? These are questions that Christians are often asked by sceptics. The field of apologetics attempts to provide rational answers to these and other questions. Unfortunately, apologetical answers to these questions are often abstract and philosophical. However, the Christian apologist/evangelist has a much more powerful argument in their arsenal: the argument from miracles. Miracles are the original Christian..

Waiting at the Foot of the Cross - Toward a Theology of Hope for Today - Bok av Pamela R McCarroll - Häftad

Waiting at the Foot of the Cross - Toward a Theology of Hope for Today - Bok av Pamela R McCarroll - Häftad

How do we hope in the face of modernity's failure and postmodernity's absence of foundations? How do we hope when the future seems fearful and no clear way forward appears? How do we hope when despair, indifference, and cynicism dominate the psychic landscape of English-speaking North America? In dialogue with theologians of the cross George Grant and Douglas John Hall, this book unmasks the failure of hope in our time and the vacuum of meaning that remains. As an exercise in the theology of the..

Explorations in Interdisciplinary Reading - Bok - Häftad

Explorations in Interdisciplinary Reading - Bok - Häftad

She also..

Bridge - Bok av Michael W McGowan - Häftad

Bridge - Bok av Michael W McGowan - Häftad

Philosophers of religion and theologians have long wrestled with the concept of revelation. Does God reveal truth to human subjects primarily through sacred texts or audible voices? Through inner experiences or pronouncements of religious leaders? What is the relationship between the truths given in revelation and those discoverable by reason? Revelation is a challenge not only to scholars, but also for churchgoers. How can the same God command one person to do one thing and another to do something..

Contextualizing Theology in the South Pacific - Bok av Randall G Prior - Häftad

Contextualizing Theology in the South Pacific - Bok av Randall G Prior - Häftad

This book engages with a widespread contemporary dilemma--how do we do theology in a context where the cultures of the people are oral and not literate?The nations of the South Pacific, from their missionary beginnings, inherited an approach to theology that was dominated by Western cultural categories. The global movement of contextualization began to impact upon Pacific churches in the 1960s, and challenged this inherited approach. Significant changes have resulted, but the dilemma has remained...

Jerome's Commentary on Daniel - Bok av Jay Braverman - Häftad

Jerome's Commentary on Daniel - Bok av Jay Braverman - Häftad

The book presents for the first time a systematic comparison of Origen's and Jerome's attitudes toward the Biblical text in the Hebrew and Septuagint versions. And toward the canon of the Scriptures and traces the stages in Jerome's abandonment of the primacy of the Septuagint. One of the most important accomplishment of this work is Braverman's discussion of Jerome's commentary on the story of Susanna and the elders. Also valuable is his comparison of Jerome with earlier (especially Origen), contemporary,..

Beyond the Individual - Bok av Will Johncock - Häftad

Beyond the Individual - Bok av Will Johncock - Häftad

Stoic philosophy asserts that your mind, thoughts, and actions are traces of a world which shapes you, and everyone else, together. Our personal nature is part of a system, not independent. This book studies how a Stoic thinks and acts as part of a community and in service of a world, rather than separately or for themselves alone.This is not just another book about Stoic philosophy. Stoicism has been popularized as a way..

Integrating Work in Theological Education - Bok - Häftad

Integrating Work in Theological Education - Bok - Häftad

If only we could do a better job of helping students at \\connecting the dots,\\ theological educators commonly lament. Integration, often proposed as a solution to the woes of professional education for ministry, would help students integrate knowledge, skills, spirituality, and integrity. When these remain disconnected, incompetence ensues, and the cost runs high for churches, denominations, and ministers themselves. However, we fail in thinking that integrating work is for students alone...
