Book James  1   2 Peter  and Early Jesus Traditions

Download or read book James 1 2 Peter and Early Jesus Traditions written by Alicia J. Batten and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-26 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies comparisons and possible trajectories between three 'catholic' epistles, and traditions associated with Jesus. Part A analyzes why James would recall the teachings of Jesus, how he alters these teachings, and what such adaptation suggests about his audience. Part B turns to the Jesus tradition and 1 and 2 Peter. What can 1 Peter's use of Isaiah 53 tell us about the historical Jesus? How has 1 Peter conflated early Jesus traditions with those of ancient Judaism in order to develop certain ideas? How does 2 Peter allude to Gospel traditions? Moreover, how does the author of 2 Peter use early Jesus traditions as a sort of testimony? The book is an important contribution to scholarship on source criticism, ancient rhetoric, and the influence of Hellenistic, Judean and Roman traditions on early Christianity.

Book Apolog  a de la Ley y el Sabbat

Download or read book Apolog a de la Ley y el Sabbat written by Roger Hadad and published by Voir Dire Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2021-03-28 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En el evangelio de San Mateo, Jesús predijo que en los últimos días los creyentes le darían la espalda a la Ley de Dios, y que las ramificaciones de dicha decisión serían catastróficas. Hoy día vivimos en una época en la que algunos ministros demuestran su abierto desdén por la Ley de Dios y demandan ser “liberados” de las Escrituras del Antiguo Testamento. Lamentablemente, muchos cristianos han aceptado este mensaje. Nos encontramos ante un punto de inflexión, donde debemos decidir si aceptar este mensaje o rechazarlo categóricamente.Apologia de la Ley y el Sabbat defiende la Ley de Dios sin pelos en la lengua y demuestra que tanto el evangelio como la fe y la gracia encuentran sus raizes en las Escrituras del Antiguo Testamento, y que todo esfuerzo por deshacerse de estas culmina en socavar nuestras creencias mas preciadas. Apologia de la Ley y el Sabbat desafía al cristiano a renunciar a esta hostilidad hacia el Antiguo Testamento y su ley, y demuestra que no es necesario ser ni legalista ni judaizante para caminar esta antigua senda.Descubra el código que se extiende de principio a fin en las Escrituras, su unidad inalterable y cómo Dios desea que los creyentes observen su ley. Descubra asimismo la conexión que existe entre el Nuevo Pacto y la ley del Antiguo Testamento, la diferencia entre el pensamiento legalista y el justo, y cómo la única forma de amar a Dios es guardar sus mandamientos.

Download or read book Sacra Pagina Hebrews written by Alan C. Mitchell and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2008 Catholic Press Association Award Winner! Scarcely any book of the New Testament (with the possible exception of Revelation) is so perplexing as the Letter to the Hebrews. Not really a letter, but a sermon with some features of a letter added to it, not really by its putative author,Paul, but by an anonymous Christian who wrote some of the most elegant Greek in the Bible, not really addressed to the Hebrews, but to Christians, probably in Rome 'this is the work that Alan Mitchell explains in this commentary. Many scholars have written fine commentaries on Hebrews, and Mitchell stands on their shoulders, noting where he proposes alternate interpretations. Mitchell pays particular attention to the reliance of the author of Hebrews on the Greek Old Testament (the Septuagint). He also compares the language of Hebrews with similar usage and ideas of first-century Hellenistic Jewish authors, notably Flavius Josephus and Philo of Alexandria. Furthermore, he situates Hebrews against the background of the tradition of Hellenistic Moral Philosophy, where that is appropriate. Mitchell thus locates Hebrews in its proper thought-world, something that is essential for the modern reader in dealing with some of the thornier questions raised by this biblical book. Chief among these are the role of sacrificial atonement, the question of second repentance, and the spiritual and moral formation of the Roman Christians who were its recipients. Like all the volumes in the Sacra Pagina series, this work examines the text in detail, with careful attention to the words and phrasing, and then brings those individual insights together into a coherent summary. The bibliography and special lists appended teach chapter cover the best of recent scholarship on the Letter to the Hebrews. Alan C. Mitchell, PhD, is Associate Professor of New Testament Studies and Christian Origins at Georgetown University and is Director of the Annual Georgetown University Institute on Sacred Scripture. He is a member of the Society of Biblical Literature and Catholic Biblical Association.

Book Reading Second Peter with New Eyes

Download or read book Reading Second Peter with New Eyes written by Robert L. Webb and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-04-08 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The letters of James, 1 and 2 Peter, and Jude are among the most neglected letters of the NT. Thus, methodological advances in NT study tend to arise among the Gospels or Pauline letters. But these letters are beginning to receive increased attention in the scholarly community. Reading Second Peter With New Eyes is the third of four volumes that incorporate research in this area. The essays collected here examine the impact of recent methodological developments in New Testament studies to Second Peter, including, for example, rhetorical, social-scientific, socio-rhetorical, ideological and hermeneutical methods, as they contribute to understanding this letter and its social context.

He will open, and there will be no one to close, and there will be no one to open. Revelation 1: 17 when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead, so he put his right hand on me and said, do not fear, I am the first and the last. Revelation 1; 18 The one who lives, and was dead.

Exhortation to Holiness 1 Peter 1:13 because of this strengthens your understanding; Be completely sober, and put your hope in the joy that will come to you in the revelation of Jesus Christ our Lord. Colonnese 3 and 4 and when the Christ, who is our life, appears, then you too will be revealed with him in his glory. 1 Peter 1; 14 as obedient children, do not participate in the low passions that you previously had, which you desired in your ignorance 1 Peter 1, 15 but as he who called you is Holy, be holy in all your way of life. 2 Corinthians 7: 1 Therefore, my beloved, because we have such promises, let us cleanse from all filthiness of the flesh and Spirit, leading ourselves in holiness, in reverence to God. 1 Thessalonians 4; 7 why God did not call them to filth but Holiness 1 John 3; 3 and everyone who has hope in him will purify himself, just as he is pure. 1 Peter 1; 16 why is it written; be holy as I am also holy Leviticus 11; 44 because I am YHWH your God.

La Asamblea se reunió según a la convocación, el 1 de julio de 1643, en la Iglesia de Westminster. El Dr. William Twisse, Presidente, predicó el sermón de apertura tomado de la promesa preciosa de Cristo, No os dejaré huérfanos. Estas palabras eran como manzanas de oro con figuras de plata, en aquellos tiempos de confusión triste. Una semana después volvieron a reunirse, cuando el juramento fue administrado a cada miembro presente, en las palabras siguientes: Yo, -- --, declaro solemne y seriamente, ante la presencia del Dios Todopoderoso, que en esta Asamblea, de la cual yo soy un miembro, no mantendré nada en asuntos de doctrina, más de lo que yo creo en mi conciencia ser verdad; o en puntos de disciplina, más de lo que yo conciba que conduzca más para la gloria de Dios, y para el bien y la paz de Su Iglesia. Este juramento se leyó todos los lunes por la mañana para refrescar la memoria y revivir la conciencia.

Download or read book EL VERDADERO DIABLO written by Duncan Heaster and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-02-07 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El origen esencial del mal y del pecado humano es en verdad una pregunta profunda; pero sólo cuando la enfrentamos nos sentimos capacitados para encargarnos del pecado y del mal, y encontrar un camino de victoria. Culpar de todo a un Diablo personal con cuernos, cola y tridente me parece que es una forma de escapismo, de evadir el asunto, recurriendo rápidamente a una respuesta simplista, pero equivocada. Especialmente cuando se ha entendido que realmente esta idea del Diablo no se halla en ningún pasaje de la Biblia, sino que es más bien una acumulación de siglos de especulación y adaptación de mitos paganos. En el capítulo 1, procuro demostrar que esto es en verdad lo que ha sucedido. En todo ese capítulo y en los que siguen, procuro demostrar cómo el pueblo de Dios lamentablemente aceptó muchos de los mitos circundantes acerca de una figura de Satanás; pero los escritores de la Biblia procuraron activamente deconstruir los mitos por medio de aludir a ellos y dejar al descubierto su falacia.
