Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book consists of three lectures delivered by noted biblical scholar J. Armitage Robinson at Westminster Abbey on the theme of incarnation. Robinson chose to publish the lectures in response to a push by some quarters of the Anglican Communion to have the bishops declare the virgin birth a cardinal doctrine of the Christian faith. In an opening letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury, Robinson appeals that the door of inquiry not be closed by the hand of authority. In light of these concerns regarding the doctrine of the virgin birth, he sets to investigate four elements. First, what do we mean by the incarnation; secondly, what led up to the incarnation and made it possible; thirdly, how as a matter of historical fact it was realized on the stage of the world; and lastly, what are its chief lessons and most important issues.

Download or read book Talking about Race written by Isaac Adams and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conversations about racism are as important as they are hard for American Christians. Yet the conversation often gets so ugly, even among the faithful who claim unity in Jesus. Why is that the case? Why does it matter? Can things get better, or are we permanently divided? In this honest and hopeful book, pastor Isaac Adams doesn't just show you how to have the race conversation, he begins it for you. By offering a fictional, racially charged tragedy in order to understand varying perspectives and responses, he examines what is at stake if we ignore this conversation, and why there's just as much at stake in how we have that discussion, especially across color lines--that is, with people of another ethnicity. This unique approach offers insight into how to listen to one another well and seek unity in Christ. Looking to God's Word, Christians can find wisdom to speak gracefully and truthfully about racism for the glory of God, the good of their neighbors, and the building up of the church. Some feel that the time for talking is over, and that we've heard all this before. But given how polarized American society is becoming--its churches not exempt--fresh attention on the dysfunctional communication between ethnicities is more than warranted. Adams offers an invitation to faithfully combat the racism so many of us say we hate and maintain the unity so many of us say we want. Together we can learn to speak in such a way that we show a divided world a different world. Talking About Race points to the starting line, not the finish line, when it comes to following Jesus amid race relations. It’s high time to begin running.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Incarnation and Modern Thought: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate Divinity School in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Department or Systematic Theology) It is an extreme View that no certain knowledge can be gained of God outside the historical Christ, for there is a revelation of God both in the heavens that declare his glory, and in the heart Of man that receives the light that lighteth every man that cometh into the world. There are two sources Of the knowledge of God, and they must and can be correlated. From a scientific view of the world arises a corresponding philosophy; and this philosophy must agree with the Christian philosophy, which, to a Christian, arises from his Observation of the revelation in Christ. There cannot be dualistic philosophies existing side by side in the same mind; and the effort to unify them will compel the thinker to reduce them to a common terminology.

Download or read book Incarnation Anyway written by Edwin Christian van Driel and published by . This book was released on 2008-08-21 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book raises in a new way a formerly central but recently neglected question in systematic theology: what is the divine motive for the incarnation? Throughout Christian history theologians have agreed that God's decision to become incarnate in the person of Jesus Christ was made necessary by humanity's fall from grace. If Adam and Eve had not sinned, the incarnation would not have happened. This position is known as "infralapsarian." In the 19th and 20th centuries, however, some major theological figures championed a "supralapsarian" Christology, arguing that God had always intended the incarnation, independent of "the Fall." Edwin van Driel offers the first scholarly monograph to map and analyze the full range of supralapsarian arguments. He gives a thick description of each argument and its theological consequences, and evaluates the theological gains and losses inherent in each approach. Van Driel shows that each of the three ways in which God is thought to relate to all that is not God DL in creation, in redemption, and in eschatological consummation DL can serve as the basis for a supralapsarian argument. He illustrates this thesis with detailed case studies of the Christologies of Schleiermacher, Dorner, and Barth. He concludes that the most fruitful supralapsarian strategy is rooted in the notion of eschatological consummation, taking interpersonal interaction with God to be the goal of the incarnation. He goes on to develop his own argument along these lines, concluding in an eschatological vision in which God is visually, audibly, and tangibly present in the midst of God's people.
