Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies of Paul and His Gospel These Studies have appeared in the pages of The Expositor, and are reprinted with the kind per mission of the Editor. The intention is not to give an exhaustive or systematic account of Paul's theology, but to present the man and his message as distinctly as the writer himself has been im pressed by them. In one oi the Century Bible Handbooks, published by Messrs. T. C. E. C. Jack, the writer has already dealt with The Life and Teaching of Paul; but necessarily in the briefest possible way. In this volume he attempts to discuss in greater detail, with more constant reference to modern difficulties, the main features of Paul's Gospel. While not unacquainted with what scholars have written on the theme, he has not thought it necessary or desirable to confuse the reader by the reproduction of a mass of con flicting Opinion; but having gone to the sources.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gospel of Paul: The Gospel of Jesus Have no doubt been largely determined by the writings of the Apostle Paul. The statements of the Saviour regard ing His own person and work, plain and pregnant as these are, run into a peculiar and definite mould when passing through the mind of Paul, and come forth stamped with his own individuality. In more recent times some critics have endeavoured to make out that the writings of the great Apostle set forth a different gospel from that contained in the sayings of Jesus as recorded in the Synoptic Gospels. We recognise the profound truth of Peter's words, Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life. But it does not follow that the same Spirit of Truth who spake in and through Jesus Christ (heb. Ii. Does not.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gospel of Paul IN the following pagesi present an interpreta tion of Paul's doctrine of the atonement which I believe to be new. Others, indeed, have had in their hands the clue that I have followed; but they have speedily dropped, it as of small ac count. When I speak of an interpretation of Paul's doctrine of the atonement, I do not mean a theory of my own of a possible scheme of atonement, to which some of Paul's words may be made to fit more or less loosely. I mean a statement Which has nothing in it of my own, but which is based wholly upon an examination of the words of Paul these being taken in their most natural and direct signification.

Download or read book The Gospel According to Saint Paul Classic Reprint written by William Porcher Dubose and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gospel According to Saint Paul IN advocating and pressing any particular point of View, one is inevitably liable to press it unduly and at the expense of other points of View. In the quest of truth this danger ought not to be too much of a deter rent to either freedom of thought or boldness of expres sion. The ultimate aim of each one of us should be not to save ourselves from error but to advance the truth. We may safely rely upon it that our truth will in the end be accepted and our error corrected. If I had been too much afraid of going wrong I should have made no progress in growing right; who of us that has really thought or spoken may not say that of himself? For my own part, I have not merely tradi tionally believed but become personally convinced that there is a truth of the Scriptures and that there is a mind of the Church; and that each of these will take care of itself as against the infinite errors and vagaries of individual thinkers and writers. I have in my mind not only an implicit faith but a rational science or philosophy of these things, which at least satisfies myself and gives me security and rest from the fear.

Download or read book The Gospel of Paul of Tarsus and of His Opponent James the Just From Our Current New Testament Classic Reprint written by Francis William Newman and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gospel of Paul of Tarsus, and of His Opponent, James the Just, From Our Current New Testament Paul of Tarsus is our earliest authority in Christian literature. Among his popularly received Epistles one alone is certainly not his, and does not bear his name, the Epistle to the Hebrews. To class it as Paul's, is mere wilfulness. Of the rest, which bear Paul's name, no adequate reason leads the present writer to reject any: and four, viz.: (one to the Romans, two to the Corinthians and one to the Galatians) are received as authentic and genuine by the most scrupulous critics. His public life as an ardent Pharisee began (as estimated by our divines) two years after the crucifixion of Jesus, and closed (as church tradition teaches) by the Emperor Nero's executioner, A.D. 64, six years before the Roman Destruction of Jerusalem. No esteemed Christian antiquaries can place our earliest gospels, Mark and Matthew, so early as A.D. 80. Hence all Paul's Epistles carry a date earlier than our earliest received Gospel. This simple fact was open to all students from really primitive times. Its immense importance is not yet seen by more than a very few English Protestants. That is why it seemed to the writer an adequate reason for pointing to Paul as our source of History. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: The contributors explore how the theological tradition of the Social Gospel, born within the social and cultural dislocations of late 19th-century America, relates to the dislocations of the current American scene.

Download or read book A Theology for the Social Gospel written by Walter Rauschenbusch and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Theology for the Social Gospel is undoubtedly Walter Rauschenbusch's most enduring work. It is here that Rauschenbusch, the father of the social gospel in the United States, articulates the theological roots of social activism that surged forth from mainline Protestant churches in the early part of the twentieth century. Skillfully examining the great theological issues of the Christian faith--sin, evil, salvation, and the kingdom of God--Rauschenbauch offers a powerful justification for the church to fully engage society. The Library of Theological Ethics series focuses on what it means to think theologically and ethically. It presents a selection of important and otherwise unavailable texts in easily accessible form. Volumes in this series will enable sustained dialogue with predecessors though reflection on classic works in the field.
Download or read book The Social Gospel in American Religion written by Christopher H Evans and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable history of the powerful and influential social gospel movement. The global crises of child labor, alcoholism and poverty were all brought to our attention through the social gospel movement. Its impact on American society makes it one of the most influential developments in American religious history. Christopher H. Evans traces the development of the social gospel in American Protestantism, and illustrates how the religious idealism of the movement also rose up within Judaism and Catholicism. Contrary to the works of previous historians, Evans demonstrates how the presence of the social gospel continued in American culture long after its alleged demise following World War I. Evans reveals the many aspects of the social gospel and their influence on a range of social movements during the twentieth century, culminating with the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s. It also explores the relationship between the liberal social gospel of the early twentieth century and later iterations of social reform in late twentieth century evangelicalism. The Social Gospel in American Religion considers an impressive array of historical figures including Washington Gladden, Emil Hirsch, Frances Willard, Reverdy Ransom, Walter Rauschenbusch, Stephen Wise, John Ryan, Harry Emerson Fosdick, A.J. Muste, Georgia Harkness, and Benjamin Mays. It demonstrates how these figures contributed to the shape of the social gospel in America, while arguing that the movement’s legacy lies in its profound influence on broader traditions of liberal-progressive political reform in American history.
Download or read book The Gospel According to St Paul written by J. Oswald Dykes and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gospel According to St. Paul: Studies in the First Eight Chapters of His Epistle to the Romans Any one who pays to this book the compliment of glancing through its pages will readily perceive that it is neither a commentary nor a treatise in theology. It is neither addressed to scholars nor to divines. Nor does it set forth any novel interpretation of the Apostle's teaching. After so many centuries of study, the likelihood that it has been reserved for this generation to discover the right sense of St. Paul's most important Letter appears to the Author sufficiently small. What he has ventured to attempt is to restate in plain - that is, non-technical - language the course of the argument and the development of thought through these famous chapters, in such a way as may prove of assistance to readers who possess an intelligent interest in evangelical truth. How far he has been successful in this attempt it is for others to say. About one-half of the volume appeared some time ago in the columns of the "Homiletic Magazine." These chapters have been revised. The rest is printed here for the first time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book History of Christianity written by Paul Johnson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-03-27 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1976, Paul Johnson’s exceptional study of Christianity has been loved and widely hailed for its intensive research, writing, and magnitude—“a tour de force, one of the most ambitious surveys of the history of Christianity ever attempted and perhaps the most radical” (New York Review of Books). In a highly readable companion to books on faith and history, the scholar and author Johnson has illuminated the Christian world and its fascinating history in a way that no other has. Johnson takes off in the year AD 49 with his namesake the apostle Paul. Thus beginning an ambitious quest to paint the centuries since the founding of a little-known ‘Jesus Sect’, A History of Christianity explores to a great degree the evolution of the Western world. With an unbiased and overall optimistic tone, Johnson traces the fantastic scope of the consequent sects of Christianity and the people who followed them. Information drawn from extensive and varied sources from around the world makes this history as credible as it is reliable. Invaluable understanding of the framework of modern Christianity—and its trials and tribulations throughout history—has never before been contained in such a captivating work.

Download or read book Paul s Joy in Christ written by A. T. Robertson and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paul's Joy in Christ: Studies in Philippians These lectures were first prepared as expository talks from the Greek text for the Northfield Conference for Christian workers in August, 1913. They were delivered in Sage Chapel and their publication was requested by the hearers. The addresses have since been repeated at Winona Lake, Indiana, Columbus, Ohio, Virginia Beach, Moody Bible Institute, and to various other assemblies and churches. The Greek text is kept in foot-notes so that the average man can read the book with comfort without a knowledge of Greek. The volume is essentially popular in style and purpose, while the latest researches of modern scholarship are utilized for the illustration of this noble Epistle. Nowhere is the tender side of Paul's nature better shown than here, his delicacy, his courtesy, his elevation of feeling, his independence, his mysticism, his spiritual passion. My book is not so much a technical commentary, though it covers all the Epistle, as an interpretation adapted to modern needs on the part of all teachers, preachers and students of the New Testament. Nowhere does Paul have more "charm," to use Ramsay's phrase, than in Philippians. Nowhere is he more vital and more powerful.
