Download or read book Jesus the Liberator written by Michael Prior and published by Burns & Oates. This book was released on 1995 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of Liberation Theology has coincided with an increase in interest in Luke's concern for the poor. This has been the subject of a number of special studies, and this new one argues for an application of the spirit of the text to contemporary society, uniting a respect for the methods of New Testament study with a commitment to social change enlivened by its values. This book is the first monograph which deals with this major New Testament text. While it engages with the most recent New Testament scholarship, it is written with a wide readership in mind. Prior examines the efforts to situate the traditions about Jesus and the evangelization of the poor in the life of Luke's community. He does not stop there, but insists that enquiry into the Gospel of Luke must concern itself with the place of the text in contemporary society. Sensitive to the concerns of biblical scholarship, this challenging exegesis respects the faith perspective that the Word of God is alive and active, and calls for a response in every generation.

Download or read book Jesus in Latin America written by Jon Sobrino and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-10-29 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jon Sobrino's qualifications as a theologian and the importance of his theological work are universally acknowledged, but the orthodoxy of his work and the orthopraxis of the activity it sets in motion are controversial. Sobrino responds to critics in this collection of articles on the theme of Jesus of Nazareth and his relevance to Christian life and faith in Latin America. The christology Sobrino argues for affirms belief in the divinity of Jesus and the centrality of Jesus' relationship with the poor and oppressed. It is, as Juan Alfaro says in the Foreword, a christology springing from Christian faith as lived in the historical situation of the Latin American people.

From his immersion in the violent and struggle-filled reality of Central America, Jon Sobrino articulates a way to imbue the practice of liberation with spirituality--a dimension that critics often charge is lacking in liberation theology.

Download or read book Jesus the Christ written by Brennan R. Hill and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christology, that is, the study of Jesus, is a many-faceted subject. In this new edition of Jesus, the Christ, Brennan Hill clearly and cogently explores this critical theological area, resulting in a luminous and reliable portrait of the Jesus of history and the Christ of faith. He deftly surveys both the breadth of information covered in the previous edition as well as the wealth of developments that have occurred in the field since the early 1990s. Jesus, the Christ looks at the people and places in Jesus' time, then moves to a search for the historical Jesus. Hill next looks at the many areas of Jesus' life and mission: teacher, prophet, miracle worker, man of the earth, advocate for women, savior, and liberator. He examines the main gospel stories about Jesus' birth, death, and resurrection, and illustrates how the early christological doctrines developed. This new edition is written in a more informal and accessible style, enabling students to well understand and grasp the concepts and facts about the subject. Each chapter ends with discussion questions and a list of suggestions for further reading. Jesus, the Christ is eminently readable, constantly challenging, and filled with timely information in nontechnical language. It is strongly rooted in the best of modern biblical translation, and will be welcomed by students, teachers, and the general reader alike.

Download or read book Interpreting Jesus written by Gerald O'Collins and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2002-10-15 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interpreting Jesus draws on traditional teaching and the best scripture scholarship to construct a Christology which centers on the crucifixion and the resurrection of Jesus. The aim is to explore and clarify what Christian belief in the risen Jesus as Son of God and Savior of the world originally meant and now continues to mean. Special features include an excursus on the theological implications of the Shroud of Turin and a return to a theme which contemporary Christology has widely neglected, the blood of Jesus and its redemptive symbolism. The book ends by linking belief in Jesus with the non-Christian world. Father O'Collins has previously written many articles and shorter works on Jesus Christ. This Christology represents a mature climax of those earlier publications.

Download or read book A Spectator s Guide to Jesus written by John P. Dickson and published by Lion Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this introduction to the life and teaching of Jesus, Dr. John Dickson takes readers through the historical data to reveal in Jesus a man who will surprise both the religious and the not-so-religious. The Jesus who emerges from the ancient sources challenges the norms of his culture, society, and religion. This Jesus associates with sinners, demands compassion toward the needy, and denounces imperialism. The historical Jesus is not left-wing or right-wing. The Jesus of history transcended these simplistic modern categories. Instead, he was a man unlike any other.
