Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the availability and use of media platforms continue to expand, the cultural visibility of religion is on the rise, leading to questions about religious authority: Where does it come from? How is it established? What might be changing it? The contributors to The Media and Religious Authority examine the ways in which new centers of power and influence are emerging as religions seek to “brand” themselves in the media age. Putting their in-depth, incisive studies of particular instances of media production and reception in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and North America into conversation with one another, the volume explores how evolving mediations of religion in various places affect the prospects, aspirations, and durability of religious authority across the globe. An insightful combination of theoretical groundwork and individual case studies, The Media and Religious Authority invites us to rethink the relationships among the media, religion, and culture. The contributors are Karina Kosicki Bellotti, Alexandra Boutros, Pauline Hope Cheong, Peter Horsfield, Christine Hoff Kraemer, Joonseong Lee, Alf Linderman, Bahíyyah Maroon, Montré Aza Missouri, and Emily Zeamer, with an afterword by Lynn Schofield Clark.

Excerpt: ... revived, though with his habitual prudence, all the uncertainties and differences of opinion which we find among the Church Fathers as to the list of canonical and non-canonical books, the homologoumena, the antilegomena, and the apocrypha. No doubt he strove to reconcile all these literary facts with the reality of inspiration, but he profoundly modified the idea of inspiration. He was especially fond of using it as a weapon against the Protestant dogma, and to show that, after all, the only basis for the divine authority of the Scriptures was the present authority of the Church. But in that case what does the latter rest upon? Catholics and Protestants, equally embarrassed before the witness of history, can escape its testimony only by shutting themselves up in vicious circles. Jean Leclerc developed the criticism of Richard Simon, and Semler, treading in their footsteps, went still further along the path they had opened. All questions were raised, and men began to get glimpses through the veil of dogmatics of an entirely new historic reality, which our own age was at last to bring to the open light of day. Under the influence of this criticism the dogmatic authority of the Canon of Holy Scripture also vanished away. The notion of the " Word of God" was changed. The two notions, Canon and divine Word, parted company, since they no longer coincided. The English Deists, Tindal especially, strained every nerve to show how little, or how ill, certain books of the Bible answer, cither by their origin or their contents, to the idea which we cannot but form of the Word of God. How was it possible to maintain the authority of the Old Testament as equal to that of the New, approve equally the sanguinary intolerance of an Elijah and the...

Download or read book By what Authority written by Robert L. Millet and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the apostles Peter and John had healed the lame man at the Gate Beautiful, the two disciples were arrested and later brought before the Sanhedrin to account for their deed, one that continued to stir the already anxious leaders of the Jews: "And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, "By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?" (Acts 4:7). Indeed, what was the source of their miracle? And by what power or authority did they perform it? Those queries ring through the centuries because people in our day still pose the questions. Most Christians want to be a part of a denomination or organization that is true, faithful to what existed in the first century, authorised, and therefore approved of God. They want to know, in other words, that God is governing among his people, that he is empowering the body of Christ of which they are a part. The essays in this book address the central issue of such authority in the Christian life. --Book Jacket.

Book excerpt: * Manual-Only Version. * Manual + Transcripts version available here: https: //kdp.amazon.com/amazon-dp-action/us/dualbookshelf.marketplacelink/1481280473 The original mandate given to man in Genesis 1v28 was to "subdue and have dominion". Unfortunately when Adam & Eve sinned against god, they lost their connection with God, and lost their spiritual authority. Jesus came to give us back our relationship with God, and our assignment of dominion again. Jesus demonstrated the message, He lived out the message of bring heaven to earth where ever he was. He first called 12, then 70, and finally entrusted all believers with the assignment to go, as ambassadors of the Kingdom, to proclaim the gospel, to make disciples, to heal the sick, to cast out demons, raise the dead - to minister in power and signs and wonders.Gods purpose in creating man has never changed, He has something for us to accomplish, to bring our lives and community into harmony with heaven. We need to understand our mission in life, and learn how to fulfil it, how to exercise spiritual authority over all spiritual resistance. Contents of the Manual include: 1. The Apostolic Mandate 2. Understanding your Spiritual 'Metron' 3. How you exercise Spiritual Authority 4. Exercising authority in your personal life 5. Your authority to minister to people 6.

Download or read book God Is Not Great written by Christopher Hitchens and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2008-11-19 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christopher Hitchens, described in the London Observer as “one of the most prolific, as well as brilliant, journalists of our time” takes on his biggest subject yet–the increasingly dangerous role of religion in the world. In the tradition of Bertrand Russell’s Why I Am Not a Christian and Sam Harris’s recent bestseller, The End Of Faith, Christopher Hitchens makes the ultimate case against religion. With a close and erudite reading of the major religious texts, he documents the ways in which religion is a man-made wish, a cause of dangerous sexual repression, and a distortion of our origins in the cosmos. With eloquent clarity, Hitchens frames the argument for a more secular life based on science and reason, in which hell is replaced by the Hubble Telescope’s awesome view of the universe, and Moses and the burning bush give way to the beauty and symmetry of the double helix.

Download or read book The Invisible Church written by J. Pittman McGehee and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-11-30 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While nearly half of Americans identify themselves with a fundamentalist brand of religion, and a sizable minority has rejected religion altogether, there is a vast middle ground. This book is aimed at that huge group of people who describe themselves as spiritual but not religious. In other words, people who are open to encountering the divine and the transcendent, and indeed actively seek these experiences. The authors help readers improve their understanding of the religious nature of the psyche, the origins of myths and religions in the collective unconscious, and the ways in which organized religion has often worked to infantilize its followers. They leave the reader with an empowered ability to claim his or her own spiritual authority and lead a more abundant, authentic life. Many of those who have left organized religion have done so because it has hurt them in some way or because it failed to address their needs, yet they maintain a strong yearning to reconnect with the divine and transcendent level of human existence. As religious fundamentalism continues to influence so much of our national discourse, and as atheistic books rank high on bestseller lists, the time has never been more crucial for a book to address a third way between fundamentalism and atheism - a way that encourages readers to connect with their true religious nature, while at the same time maintaining their intellectual integrity and claiming their own authority. McGehee and Thomas offer that third way.
