Book Christ s View of the Kingdom of God

Download or read book Christ s View of the Kingdom of God written by William Manson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-17 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christ's View of the Kingdom of God: A Study in Jewish Apocalyptic and in the Mind of Jesus Christ; Bruce Lectures The following pages incorporate a series of Bruce Lectures given in the Theological College of the United Free Church, Glasgow, in 1914. Various circumstances have delayed their preparation for publication, and in the form in which they now appear almost nothing remains of the original lectures except the argument. It is hoped, however, that by this delay and revision the argument has gained in clearness and in force, especially as it has been possible to relate it in some degree to events and aspirations of the present time. The book is issued in the hope that it may be of service to students of the Gospels, for whom the Eschatological Question still constitutes the gateway to all higher and fuller historical understanding of these precious documents. The writer is indebted to many, both teachers and friends, who have helped him, above all to the revered and beloved teacher, at whose suggestion the task of preparing these lectures was first undertaken. What he owed to Dr. James Denney for counsel and encouragementfhefcan, however, never adequately tell. The literary references are given in the foot notes. In the preparation of the book for the press the writer has been greatly assisted by Prof. John E. Mcfadyen, and he is specially indebted to Prof. H. R. Mackintosh for his kindness in contributing the Introductory Note. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Crucial Questions about the Kingdom of God

Download or read book Crucial Questions about the Kingdom of God written by George Eldon Ladd and published by Grand Rapids, Mich. : W.B. Eerdmans Publishing Company. This book was released on 1952 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the purposes of publication, each lecture has been divided into two chapters. With the exception of the last two chapters, the study is centered in our Lord's teachings, for the kingdom of God is one of the most central themes in his Evangel. It will appear to many to be a weakness that so little appeal is made to the Old Testament prophecies; but I am convinced that we must interpret the Old Testament by the New and not vice versa, and this procedure has been deliberately followed. - Author's foreword.

Book Jesus

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bart D. Ehrman
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 1999-09-23
  • ISBN : 0199839433
  • Pages : 290 pages

Download or read book Jesus written by Bart D. Ehrman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999-09-23 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this highly accessible discussion, Bart Ehrman examines the most recent textual and archaeological sources for the life of Jesus, along with the history of first-century Palestine, drawing a fascinating portrait of the man and his teachings. Ehrman shows us what historians have long known about the Gospels and the man who stands behind them. Through a careful evaluation of the New Testament (and other surviving sources, including the more recently discovered Gospels of Thomas and Peter), Ehrman proposes that Jesus can be best understood as an apocalyptic prophet--a man convinced that the world would end dramatically within the lifetime of his apostles and that a new kingdom would be created on earth. According to Ehrman, Jesus' belief in a coming apocalypse and his expectation of an utter reversal in the world's social organization not only underscores the radicalism of his teachings but also sheds light on both the appeal of his message to society's outcasts and the threat he posed to Jerusalem's established leadership.

Book How Jesus Became God

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bart D. Ehrman
  • Publisher : Harper Collins
  • Release : 2014-03-25
  • ISBN : 0062252194
  • Pages : 297 pages

Download or read book How Jesus Became God written by Bart D. Ehrman and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author and Bible expert Bart Ehrman reveals how Jesus’s divinity became dogma in the first few centuries of the early church. The claim at the heart of the Christian faith is that Jesus of Nazareth was, and is, God. But this is not what the original disciples believed during Jesus’s lifetime—and it is not what Jesus claimed about himself. How Jesus Became God tells the story of an idea that shaped Christianity, and of the evolution of a belief that looked very different in the fourth century than it did in the first. A master explainer of Christian history, texts, and traditions, Ehrman reveals how an apocalyptic prophet from the backwaters of rural Galilee crucified for crimes against the state came to be thought of as equal with the one God Almighty, Creator of all things. But how did he move from being a Jewish prophet to being God? In a book that took eight years to research and write, Ehrman sketches Jesus’s transformation from a human prophet to the Son of God exalted to divine status at his resurrection. Only when some of Jesus’s followers had visions of him after his death—alive again—did anyone come to think that he, the prophet from Galilee, had become God. And what they meant by that was not at all what people mean today. Written for secular historians of religion and believers alike, How Jesus Became God will engage anyone interested in the historical developments that led to the affirmation at the heart of Christianity: Jesus was, and is, God.

Book Global Justice  Christology and Christian Ethics

Download or read book Global Justice Christology and Christian Ethics written by Lisa Sowle Cahill and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global realities of human inequality, poverty, violence and ecological destruction call for a twenty-first-century Christian response which links cross-cultural and interreligious cooperation for change to the Gospel. This book demonstrates why just action is necessarily a criterion of authentic Christian theology, and gives grounds for Christian hope that change in violent structures is really possible. Lisa Sowle Cahill argues that theology and biblical interpretation are already embedded in and indebted to ethical-political practices and choices. Within this ecumenical study, she explores the use of the historical Jesus in constructive theology; the merits of Word and Spirit Christologies; the importance of liberation and feminist theologies as well as theologies from the global south; and also the possibility of qualified moral universalism. The book will be of great interest to all students of theology, religious ethics and politics, and biblical studies.
