  • Author : Maurice Wiles
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 1996-09-26
  • ISBN : 0198269277
  • Pages : 216 pages

Download or read book Archetypal Heresy written by Maurice Wiles and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1996-09-26 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maurice Wiles traces the history of how Arianism has been viewed in later Christian thought, particularly where scholars or religious groups have adopted broadly Arian views. The main example of a re-emergence of Arian ideas is among the leaders of the new scientific Enlightenment in the early eighteenth century, especially Sir Isaac Newton and his disciples, William Whiston and Samuel Clarke. The longest section of the book deals with how and why their beliefs took this form, and why this approach disappeared again around the end of the century.

  • ISBN : 9781545453377
  • Pages : 148 pages

Download or read book The Arians of the Fourth Century written by John Henry Cardinal Newman and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cardinal John Henry Newman's historical examination of Arianism - the belief that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and thus distinct and subordinate to God - is a superbly detailed account of this early Christian movement. Arius, a priest originating from North Africa, was the founder of the Arian belief system. It was through the work of Arius that many converted to Christianity. During the era, Egypt and much of northern Africa remained under the control of pre-Christian Rome; belief was therefore dangerous, with many persecuted and put to death for following the Christian creed. This book discusses the Arian movement after its initial establishment; details of its practices, organization and churches occupy the first part. The Fourth Century AD was a time of upheaval and reform in the Christian faith, with differing groups opposed to one another. Arius found himself denounced at the First Council of Nicaea, and the beliefs he promoted were declared heresy - the Ante-Nicene church accordingly taught alternate doctrines. While still alive, Arius was cleared of his crimes against the faith - it was Arian priests that oversaw the historic baptism of Roman Emperor Constantine. Yet Arius was again accused of heretical beliefs posthumously. After this renewed declaration, internecine conflicts between Christian believers and those deemed heretical continued for many centuries. Today, the Arian beliefs concerning Christ are considered to be obsolete and has been formally declared a heresy by many major denominations of Christianity. However, John Henry Newman correctly surmised that study of the Arians would bear fruit - thus, this book offers great historical insight into both the Arians and the politics of the early Christian church. This edition contains the original tables, notes and appendices added by Newman, allowing the reader the fullest comprehension of his investigations.

Book Essays on the Context  Nature  and Influence of Isaac Newton   s Theology

Download or read book Essays on the Context Nature and Influence of Isaac Newton s Theology written by J.E. Force and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays is the fruit of about fifteen years of discussion and research by James Force and me. As I look back on it, our interest and concern with Newton's theological ideas began in 1975 at Washington University in St. Louis. James Force was a graduate student in philosophy and I was a professor there. For a few years before, I had been doing research and writing on Millenarianism and Messianism in the 17th and 18th centuries, touching occasionally on Newton. I had bought a copy of Newton's Observations upon the Prophecies of Daniel, and the Apocalypse of St. John for a few pounds and, occasionally, read in it. In the Spring of 1975 I was giving a graduate seminar on Millenarian and Messianic ideas in the development of modem philosophy. Force was in the seminar. One day he came very excitedly up to me and said he wanted to write his dissertation on William Whiston. At that point in history, the only thing that came to my mind about Whiston was that he had published a, or the, standard translation of Josephus (which I also happened to have in my library. ) Force told me about the amazing views he had found in Whiston's notes on Josephus and in some of the few writings he could find in St. Louis by, or about, Whiston, who was Newton's successor as Lucasian Professor of mathematics at Cambridge and who wrote inordinately on Millenarian theology.
