Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Würde die Zeit nicht verkürzt werden, so würde kein Mensch gerettet – dies war vor zweitausend Jahren eine Prophezeihung Jesu und jetzt, in dieser finsteren Zeit ist sie vollumfänglich zur bitteren Tatsache geworden. Manch einer würde jetzt vielleicht einwenden, dass das wohl nicht so schlimm sei, denn es gäbe doch ein recht reges Kirchenleben, und das überall, in allen Erdteilen. Niemals fanden so viele Bestrebungen statt, die Kirchen und Gemeinschaften wachsen zu lassen und die Gläubigen zu einen. Das stimmt natürlich und dem kann ich nicht widersprechen. Die entscheidende Frage ist nur: Unter welchen Vorzeichen findet diese Einigung statt und noch wichtiger: Unter welchen Aspekten des Evangeliums? Genau diejenigen Kirchen, welche die Einigung vorantreiben, haben ein und dasselbe Problem: Sie stehen nicht zum vollen Evangelium. So wende ich mich also einerseits an die Brüder und Schwestern der Freikirchen und andererseits an die Prediger und Pastoren derselben. Mir geht es nicht im Entferntesten darum, mit dieser Schrift die einen oder anderen anzuklagen oder gar zu richten, denn ich weiss sehr wohl, dass der Zeitgeist eine ganz langsame, kaum wahrnehmbare Dekadenz in das Dogma des Evangeliums hereinbringt und so dieses beinahe unmerklich so verändert, dass es seine Wirkung mehr und mehr verwässert. Es ist Aufgabe dieser Schrift, die heilsrelevanten wunden Punkte aufzuzeigen und dabei wird dem einen oder anderen Leser sein Glaubensgebäude arge Risse bekommen. Es ist zwar nicht meine Absicht, dass dieses Glaubensgebäude einzustürzen droht, vielmehr ist es meine Absicht, dass es vollständig in sich zusammenfällt. Denn nur so kann ein sicheres, neues und dem vollen Evangelium gerechtes Glaubensgebäude errichtet werden, dessen weiser Architekt und kluger Baumeister der wahre Geist Gottes ist. Es wird zwar nicht jedem eitel Freude machen, das volle biblische Evangelium zu hören, viele werden Anstoss nehmen und es von sich weisen.

Jahrhundert nach Christus fand eine mächtige ideologische Revolution statt. Den alten heidnischen Kulten und der römischen Ordnung stellte sich das Christentum entgegen. In diesem Kontext entsteht die ?Offenbarung des Johannes?. Sie gilt als das komplexeste und geheimnisvollste Buch der Bibel, und ist an sieben Gemeinden in der heutigen Türkei gerichtet, die schliesslich sieben persönliche Sendschreiben vom auferstandenen Christus erhalten haben. Filmemacher Christophe Hanauer hat diese Geme inden erforscht. Welche sind es und was stellen sie dar? Was lehren sie uns über die Geschichte unserer Zivilisation? Welche Botschaft haben sie für die Menschheit im 21. Jahrhundert?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Aramaic Dead Sea New Jerusalem Text (NJ) survives in seven fragmentary copies: 1Q32, 2Q24, 4Q554, 4Q554a, 4Q555, 5Q15, and 11Q18. Lorenzo DiTommaso presents an edition of the 4Q NJ fragments, including a reconstruction of the text preserved in overlapping copies. He also discusses the genre of the NJ and the order of its material, its antecedents and parallels in ancient urban design, and its place among the many ancient Jewish and Christian literary expressions of the New Jerusalem. Finally, he examines the eschatological horizon of the NJ, its possible date of composition, and its relationship with other Dead Sea texts which describe the New Jerusalem or New Temple."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Arch ologie offenbart written by Tobias Kaempf and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die marmorne Liegestatue der frühchristlichen Jungfrau und Märtyrerin Cäcilie, die sich seit ihrer Entstehung zum Jubeljahr 1600 an ihrem ursprünglichen Aufstellungsort in Rom befindet, gilt aufgrund innovativer Rahmung und Formensprache als bahnbrechend in der westlichen Kunst. Im Hinblick auf ihren kulturellen, religiösen, sozialen und politischen Hintergrund wurde sie aber bislang noch nie umfassend untersucht. Die vorliegende, interdisziplinäre Studie widmet sich genau diesem Kraftfeld. Es bestimmt die Genese, Bedeutung und frühe Rezeption des Grabbildes Cäciliens wie auch des Stifters, Kardinal Paolo Camillo Sfondrato. Die Figur wirkt nicht nur im gesamten Kircheninnenraum der der Heiligen geweihten Basilika, sondern strahlt in eine wegweisende, frühmoderne Welt aus. Zugleich reflektiert sie Zeitströmungen derart, dass sie als künstlerische Summe ihrer Epoche gelten kann. The reclining marble statue of the early Christian virgin martyr Cecilia, completed by the Holy Year of 1600 and still in its original setting in the Roman basilica bearing the saint’s name, has long been recognised as a seminal work in Western art. Yet its cultural, religious, social and political background has never been comprehensively investigated. This interdisciplinary analysis explores the constellation of forces that shaped the genesis, meaning and early reception of the sculpture – a funeral image for both its donor, Cardinal Paolo Camillo Sfondrato, and Cecilia – as well as its impact on the church interior and the contemporary viewer. The cult image emerges as a synthesis of an epoch that is fundamental to our understanding of early modern culture.

Download or read book Anticlericalism in Late Medieval and Early Modern Europe written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally anticlericalism has been regarded as a significant historical factor, by some historians even as the unifying focal point for the host of movements known as the Reformation of the sixteenth century. In forty-one essays eminent historians of culture, religion, and society redefine and redirect the debate regarding the scope and impact of European anticlericalism during the period 1300-1700. The meaning of reform and resentment is here clearly articulated and the sentiments are analyzed which were directed first against all levels of the Roman hierarchy and later as well against the evangelical pastor. Using sources drawn from a wide variety of city and village archives, of literary genres and theological tracts, the articles presented here uncover the clusters of reform hope and bitter resentment directed toward parish priest, monk, bishop and pope, in addition to the early Protestant clergy. The volume highlights the continuity and discontinuity of anticlerical passion, language, goals and actions between the late medieval and Reformation periods.

Book excerpt: "Roloff has produced an intrepretation of the Revelation of John that can be certain to gain the special interest of theologians because of his . . . emphasis on the Christological starting-point of Revelation and the perspective that this discloses for the Christian community." -- Hans-Friedrich Weiss "In this commentary, one catches the Revelator's vision of eternity ablaze with promise and expectation of accountability in the bleakness of the present. May this book find many who are willing to dialog with the Revelator." -- Frederick Danker

Download or read book Like a Bride Adorned written by Lynn R. Huber and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-06-10 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phrase "like a bride adorned" is one of the ways Revelation describes the new Jerusalem which descends from heaven. This phrase can also be read as describing one of the ways interpreters historically have understood the relationship between Revelation and its metaphorical language. In contrast to views that suggest Revelation's metaphorical language is simple adornment, Huber argues that Revelation's persuasive power resides within the text's metaphorical nature and she articulates a method for exploring how Revelation employs metaphor to shape an audience's thought. In order to gain a sense of how metaphorical language works in Revelation's highly metaphorical text,"Like a Bride Adorned:" Reading Metaphor in John's Apocalypse engages one set of conceptual metaphors in relation to Revelation's literary and social-historical milieu. Specifically, Huber explores the conceptual metaphors undergirding Revelation's nuptial or bridal imagery. Positioned at the culmination of the text's, nuptial imagery serves as one the text's final and arguably one of its most important characterizations of the Christian community. Examining the function of Revelation's nuptial imagery involves investigating how the text redeploys conventional metaphorical constructions used in the writings of the Hebrew prophets and how its imagery engages Greco-Roman depictions of women, weddings, and brides. Discourse about marriage and family was such an important part of Revelation's historical context, especially as it was shaped by the Roman Empire, that any discussion of the text's nuptial imagery must examine how it reflects and responds to this discourse. By addressing these questions, we see that Revelation's nuptial imagery serves to further the text's goal of shaping Christian identity in opposition to the social demands of the Roman Empire. Moreover, exploration of the conceptual metaphors undergirding Revelation's "bride adorned" reveals how John seeks to shape Christian identity as a transitional identity. Through metaphor, Revelation encourages its audience to envision the Christian community as a bride who constructs "her" own identity as she transitions into a new role in relation to God and the Lamb. Through the process of exploring Revelation's nuptial imagery with insights gained from conceptual metaphor theory, we uncover the ways that John employs metaphorical language to persuade his audience's thought about themselves and about others. Consequently, this work contributes both to our understanding of the text's nuptial imagery and to our knowledge of how Revelation employs metaphor as tool for persuasion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theme of this Festschrift dedicated to Heiko Oberman is Augustine reception in theology (1300-1650). Contemporary discussions about an Augustinian school prior to Luther and about Luther's possible relation to such have been intensified by the work of Heiko Oberman. Thirteen invited scholars produced new work. William Courtenay wrote on late medieval discussions of psychic states and human motivations and volitions; Christoph Burger on Hugolin of Orvieto; Tarald Rasmussen on Jacob Perez of Valencia; Manfred Schulze on Johannes von Staupitz; Bernard Hamm on Jerome reception in Nuremberg; Scott Hendrix on Luther's loyalties; Kurt-Victor Selge on Luther's ecclesiology; M.A. Screech on Augustine reception in Rabelais; David Steinmetz on Rom. 7; Arthur Olsen on Martin Chemnitz; James Tanis on Abraham van der Heyden; Suse Rau and Elsie Vezey compiled the Heiko Augustine Oberman Bibliography. Essays are published in their original English or German; English summaries are provided for the German entries. The general student of the period (1300-1650) should gain an overview of the appropriation of Augustine during that time and Professor Oberman's colleagues should profit from the new research contained herein.
