Book God Incarnate

    Book Details:
  • Author : Oliver D. Crisp
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2009-08-06
  • ISBN : 0567092992
  • Pages : 201 pages

Download or read book God Incarnate written by Oliver D. Crisp and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-08-06 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The doctrine of the incarnation is one of the central and defining dogmas of the Christian faith. In this text, Oliver Crisp builds upon his previous work, Divinity and Humanity: The Incarnation Reconsidered (Cambridge, 2007). In God Incarnate, he explores the Incarnation further and covers issues he did not deal with in his previous book. This work attempts to further the project of setting out a coherent account of the Incarnation by considering key facets of this doctrine, as parts of a larger, integrated, doctrinal whole. Throughout, he is concerned to develop a position in line with historic Christianity that is catholic and ecumenical in tone, in line with the contours of the Reformed theological tradition within which his own work falls. And, like its predecessor, this book will draw upon philosophical and theological resources to make sense of the problems the doctrine faces.

Book Tempted for Us

  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2009-07-01
  • ISBN : 1606088769
  • Pages : 369 pages

Download or read book Tempted for Us written by John E. McKinley and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an approach to Christ's impeccability and temptation through exploring and evaluating the theological models that have been developed from the early church to the present day. Drawing from tradition and the relevant biblical evidence, John McKinley argues that Jesus was truly tempted in ways that are closely relevant to the temptations common to us. Having been tempted for us in this way, Jesus can provide true help as the credible example to follow and truly sympathetic ally in the fight against sin. Key to understanding how Jesus remained unable to sin and sharply vulnerable to temptation is the role of the Holy Spirit.

Book The Logic of God Incarnate

  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2001-04-06
  • ISBN : 1579106293
  • Pages : 221 pages

Download or read book The Logic of God Incarnate written by Thomas V. Morris and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2001-04-06 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a philosophical examination of the logical problems associated with the claim that Jesus of Nazareth was one and the same person as God the Son, the Second Person of the divine Trinity. How can a being or person who is omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, etc., have become human given that humans are limited in knowledge and beset with weaknesses? Unless this belief in the incarnation is to be dismissed as pious sentimentality, a philosophical case must be made for at least the possible rationality of the idea. Tom Morris makes such an attempt in this book. Indeed, although it claims only to be arguing that the idea of God Incarnate is not impossible, The Logic of God Incarnate confronts the preponderance of modem philosophical argumentation against the incarnation and manages to put the traditional doctrine in a quite plausible light.

Download or read book THE CHRIST LIFE written by Geoffrey Hodson and published by Sea of Theosophy. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Every time that you find in our books a tale the reality of which seems impossible, a story which is repugnant to both reason and common sense, then be sure that the tale contains a profound allegory veiling a deeply mysterious truth; and the greater the absurdity of the letter, the deeper the wisdom of the spirit.” — Moses Maimonides, Jewish theologian, historian, Talmudist (1135-1205 A.D.) Countless people have been provided with new insights into the Christian religion through the in-depth Biblical interpretations of Geoffrey Hodson. In his Hidden Wisdom in the Holy Bible, Volumes I, II and III, he extensively analyzed Old Testament stories, suggesting that many of them are in actuality more meaningful than is commonly supposed; that many of these stories are indeed allegorical, and that, understood from a more universal and less literal point of view, they contain much additional useful knowledge. He believes this is also true of The Christ Life from Nativity to Ascension. In this book, Hodson moves from a consideration of the Old Testament of the Holy Bible to the New Testament, interpreting the four accounts, or Gospels of the life of Christ, as put down in the King James version of the Bible. The author believes that the Bible should be considered in both its historical and its allegorical significance. He writes: “Ever must it be remembered that the wondrous story (of Jesus the Christ) was never intended to be read as a record of external events alone, but rather as a revelation of the divine within man.” As a priest in the Liberal Catholic Church, Hodson has naturally maintained an intensive interest in the Holy Bible. He is recognized throughout the world for his exceptional clairvoyant abilities, and has also carried out occult research in collaboration with physicians, physicists, anthropologists and archaeologist. He is the author of some 40 books dealing with such topics as meditation, Theosophy, the spiritual life, health and disease and, of course, Bible symbolism and interpretation.

Book Obedience from First to Last

Download or read book Obedience from First to Last written by Edmund Fong and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obedience from First to Last explores the theological significance of the obedience of Jesus Christ in Karl Barth’s theology. It does this via a threefold consideration of, first, the nature of Jesus’ incarnate obedience; second, the relation of that obedience to the obedience of the second triune person of the eternal Son; and third, the effects Jesus’ obedience has on our own obedience. Barth not only affirms the pivotal role Jesus’ obedience has within the economy of salvation, but by equating that obedience with that of the eternal Son’s, Barth gives Jesus’ obedience a pre-eminent place within the immanent being of Godself. The obedience of Jesus Christ is seen to have a co-participatory role in God’s determination of his own divine being that arises from the primordial act of divine election. This notion bears on our understanding of freedom and obedience: as divine freedom is expressed in divine obedience, so it is with human freedom and human obedience.

Book A Kryptic Model of the Incarnation

Download or read book A Kryptic Model of the Incarnation written by Andrew Ter Ern Loke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Incarnation, traditionally understood as the metaphysical union between true divinity and true humanity in the one person of Jesus Christ, is one of the central doctrines for Christians over the centuries. Nevertheless, many scholars have objected that the Scriptural account of the Incarnation is incoherent. Being divine seems to entail being omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent, but the New Testament portrays Jesus as having human properties such as being apparently limited in knowledge, power, and presence. It seems logically impossible that any single individual could possess such mutually exclusive sets of properties, and this leads to scepticism concerning the occurrence of the Incarnation in history. A Kryptic Model of the Incarnation aims to provide a critical reflection of various attempts to answer these challenges and to offer a compelling response integrating aspects from analytic philosophy of religion, systematic theology, and historical-critical studies. Loke develops a new Kryptic model of the Incarnation, drawing from the Greek word Krypsis meaning ’hiding’, and proposing that in a certain sense Christ’s supernatural properties were concealed during the Incarnation.
