Book The Departure of an Apostle

Download or read book The Departure of an Apostle written by Alexander N. Kirk and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2015-11-05 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What was Paul's attitude toward his own death? How did he act and what did he say and write in view of it? What hopes did he hold for himself beyond death? Alexander N. Kirk explores these questions through a close reading of four Pauline letters that look ahead to Paul's death and other relevant texts in the first two generations after Paul's death (AD 70-160). The author studies portraits of the departed Paul in Acts, 1 Clement, the letters of Ignatius, Polycarp's letter To the Philippians, and the Martyrdom of Paul. He also examines portraits of the departing Paul in 1 and 2 Corinthians, Philippians, and 2 Timothy, arguing that Paul's death did not primarily present an existential challenge, but a pastoral one. Although touching upon several areas of recent scholarly interest, Alexander N. Kirk sets forth a new research question and fresh interpretations of early Christian and Pauline texts.

Book Calvin  Barth  and Reformed Theology

Download or read book Calvin Barth and Reformed Theology written by Neil B. MacDonald and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There can be little doubt that John Calvin and Karl Barth belong to the first rank of great theologians of the Church and both continue to exert profound influence on friend and foe alike. Both were theologians whose writings have particularly helped to shape the world of Reformed theology. Historically, there can be little doubt that Calvin's influence on Reformed doctrine has been much greater than that of Barth, and this continues to be so in the present day. In contract, Barth's Reformed credentials have at times been questioned - not least because of his distinctive reformulation of the doctrines of election and atonement. This raises the question: can there be a fruitful dialogue or engagement between those who seek to maintain the traditional, Calvin-orientated stance of the Reformed faith and those who are persuaded of the value of Barth's reconstruction of Reformed theology? This book offers an opportunity to assess how Calvin and Barth might help carry the mantle of Reformed theology into the future. Doctrinal areas of focus: the sacraments, the nature of atonement, and scripture.

Book Who Is    the God of This Age

Download or read book Who Is the God of This Age written by Ivor Poobalan and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-14 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How we interpret “the god of this age” in 2 Corinthians 4:4 has significant implications for Bible translations, our doctrines of God and Satan, and missiology. Is this about God or Satan? Dr. Ivor Poobalan illuminates this unique Pauline phrase through his comprehensive examination of the history of interpretation and careful exegesis rooted in the historical and literary contexts. Entering into centuries of debate, this work challenges the two major pillars for the “Satan argument” – Apocalypticism and ancient Jewish views of Satan – to highlight the inconsistencies that make these foundations untenable. This insightful work brings a fresh voice that returns readers to an interpretation that “the god of this age” is the sovereign God responding to Jewish unbelief. For biblical scholars, translators, theologians, and pastors, Who Is “the God of This Age”? makes accessible previously difficult sources and opens up the implications of this interpretation.

McGowan emphasizes the work of the Holy Spirit in relation to Scripture, and argues that we should speak of "spiration" rather than inspiration of Scripture.

Book The Second Epistle of Saint Paul to the Corinthians

Download or read book The Second Epistle of Saint Paul to the Corinthians written by Jean Hering and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-01-30 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Commentary on the Second Epistle to the Corinthians is concise and clear in presentation. Great care has been spent upon philological details and on obtaining the most probable text, but much of this material is kept out of the body of the commentary and relegated to footnotes. While all the chief commentaries on the Epistle, from St. Chrysostom to the present day, have been utilized by the author, he has deliberately avoided the undue accumulation of references and quotations, and has made his own critical assessment of earlier contributions. The student will find clear guidance for the study of the text, whether he is working with the English or Greek, and a penetrating exposition of its meaning. The more advanced scholar will appreciate the balanced judgment brought to bear upon difficult passages, and the many fresh persuasive solutions proposed. In agreement with the author's wishes, Dr. Heathcote has provided a fresh translation of the text of the Epistle, making use of the French version given by Professor Hering and embodying also the critical decisions reached in the body of the Commentary.

Written by Navigator author Jerry Bridges, this book explores how the same grace that brings us to faith in Christ also disciplines us in Christ. In learning more about grace, you also will learn about God’s character, His forgiveness, and the Holy Spirit.

Book 1   2 Corinthians MacArthur New Testament Commentary Set

Download or read book 1 2 Corinthians MacArthur New Testament Commentary Set written by John MacArthur and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2003-11-01 with total page 1090 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This package contains the complete two-volume set of First Corinthians and Second Corinthians from the MacArthur New Testament Commentary series. The MacArthur New Testament Commentary series continues to be one of today's top-selling commentary series. In First Corinthians and Second Corinthians, respected preacher and Bible teacher John MacArthur demonstrates how the Corinthian church required Paul's repeated care as the apostle sought to correct errors of unchristian practice, worship, and doctrine. Concerned with false apostles who were leading the church astray, Paul defended his own authority as God's apostle and sought reconciliation within the church. MacArthur explores these issues by giving a verse-by-verse analysis in context and providing points of application for passages, illuminating the biblical text in practical and relevant ways. Both volumes form yet another set of comprehensive and compelling commentaries in his New Testament series, and are a must-have for every pastor's library.

Book The Pastoral Epistles  ITC

Download or read book The Pastoral Epistles ITC written by Gerald L. Bray and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This commentary offers a verse-by-verse theological interpretation of the First and Second epistles to Timothy and Titus. Bray reads the letters as authoritative scripture, moving beyond questions of whether they are pseudonymous, and of whether or not they are post-apostolic, instead looking closely at how they have been understood in the life of the Church. Bray engages with the history of commentary surrounding these letters, ranging from the Fathers to contemporary theology and exegesis. He reads the epistles as the authoritative word from God to his people, and through his engagement with the history of interpretation shows the constant thread of witness and confession that unites believers across the ages. In so doing, Bray shows why the Pastoral Epistles have survived the passage of time and have retained the canonical authority that they have always enjoyed.

  • Publisher : Discovery House Publishing
  • Release : 2022-03-22
  • ISBN : 9814991295
  • Pages : 246 pages

Download or read book Faithful to the End written by Robert M. Solomon and published by Discovery House Publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his last known epistle, Apostle Paul, the extraordinary missionary to the Gentiles, left a poignant reflection on the most important matters in life. As we read and meditate on 2 Timothy, we are challenged to think about the direction and destiny of our own lives. · Are we in the Story of Jesus or are we in the many faulty and futile stories of the world? · Are we being useful to the King of kings or are we wasting our lives in something transient and puny when measured against eternity? These questions and more come to us from Paul’s epistle and have to be answered in each of our hearts. Robert Solomon’s passion for biblical exposition helps us plumb the depths of God’s Word and let it cast its searchlights on our lives so that we are taught, rebuked, corrected, and trained in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16).
