Download or read book The Mighty and the Almighty written by Nicholas Wolterstorff and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-07-12 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a century or more political theology has been in decline. Recent years, however, have seen increasing interest not only in how church and state should be related, but in the relation between divine authority and political authority, and in what religion has to say about the limits of state authority and the grounds of political obedience. In this book, Nicholas Wolterstorff addresses this whole complex of issues. He takes account of traditional answers to these questions, but on every point stakes out new positions. Wolterstorff offers a fresh theological defense of liberal democracy, argues that the traditional doctrine of 'two rules' should be rejected and offers a fresh exegesis of Romans 13, the canonical biblical passage for the tradition of Christian political theology. This book provides useful discussion for scholars and students of political theology, law and religion, philosophy of religion and social ethics.
Download or read book The Mighty And The Almighty written by Nick Spencer and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a secular age, we have a lot of religious politicians. Theresa May, Vladimir Putin, Angela Merkel, even Donald Trump all profess Christianity, as did Obama, Brown, Sarkozy, Bush and Blair before them. Indeed, it is striking how many Christian Presidents and Prime Ministers have assumed the global stage over recent years. In spite of Alastair Campbell's oft- (and mis-) quoted line, 'We don't do God', it seems like we definitely do. But how sincere is this faith? Is not much of it simply window-dressing for the electorate, paste-on haloes to calm the moral majority? Conversely, how dangerous is it? If we elect our politicians to do our democratic will, do we really want them praying to God for advice? The Mighty and the Almighty looks at some of the biggest political figures of the past forty years - from Thatcher and Reagan, through Mandela and Clinton, to May and Trump - and looks at how they 'did God'. Did their faith actually shape their politics, and if so, how? Or did their politics shape their faith? And does it matter if it did? In an age when religion is more important on the global stage than anyone would have predicted fifty years ago, this book will tell you everything you want to know, and some things you won't, about how the Mighty get on with the Almighty.

Download or read book In Pursuit of the Almighty s Dollar written by James Hudnut-Beumler and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2007-03-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day of the week in contemporary America (and especially on Sundays) people raise money for their religious enterprises--for clergy, educators, buildings, charity, youth-oriented work, and more. In a fascinating look into the economics of American Protestantism, James Hudnut-Beumler examines how churches have raised and spent money from colonial times to the present and considers what these practices say about both religion and American culture. After the constitutional separation of church and state was put in force, Hudnut-Beumler explains, clergy salaries had to be collected exclusively from the congregation without recourse to public funds. In adapting to this change, Protestants forged a new model that came to be followed in one way or another by virtually all religious organizations in the country. Clergy repeatedly invoked God, ecclesiastical tradition, and scriptural evidence to promote giving to the churches they served. Hudnut-Beumler contends that paying for earthly good works done in the name of God has proved highly compatible with American ideas of enterprise, materialism, and individualism. The financial choices Protestants have made throughout history--how money was given, expended, or even withheld--have reflected changing conceptions of what the religious enterprise is all about. Hudnut-Beumler tells that story for the first time.

Download or read book God the Problem written by Gordon D. Kaufman and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1972 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most discussed and most significant issue on the religious scene today is whether it is possible, or even desirable, to believe in God. Mr. Kaufman's valuable study does not offer a doctrine of God, but instead explores why God is a problem for many moderns, the dimensions of that problem, and the inner logic of the notion of God as it has developed in Western culture. His object is to determine the function or significance of talk about God: how the concept of God is generated in human experience; the special problems in turn generated by this concept (for example, the intelligibility of the idea of transcendence, the problem of theodicy) and how they are met; and under what circumstances the idea of God is credible or important or even indispensable. He does not try to prove God's existence or nonexistence, but elucidates what the concept of God means and the important human needs it fulfills. Four of the eleven essays have been previously published, at least in part; seven are completely new.

Download or read book The Almighty s Religion for the Universe written by Sidney R Smith MHS and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-02-26 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What the author is attempting to do is provide new information about the Creator, life, the universe, and the purpose of humanity as it relates to what the Almighty has revealed to mankind. It is the intent of the author to offer new alternatives and explanations of life to give new insight as to man's role for being in existence on the planet Earth and in the universe. It offers the opportunity to explore and come to terms with this information so mankind can be enlightened to a new faith. The material in this book allows man to understand that there is no reward or punishment for coming to terms with what the Creator has revealed to mankind. To take away the fear of a hell and give a sense of immortality in lieu of a heavenly paradise. Nevertheless, this book will show mankind something different about man's creation and the purpose of his creation. It's a matter of life before birth (reincarnation). Have you ever thought of the possibility that there is life before life? Many people throughout the ages have questioned the possibility of life after death, but never of life before birth. I know of only one person who had some connection with the possibility of life before birth. Me. Edward Cayce, who died in 1945, recorded some accounts of his efforts to recall the lives of people in their spiritual past. He provided case studies dealing with his ability to read past histories of people's past lives but was not able to prove or disprove his abilities. But suppose we were to think in terms of having an existence before we were born. We have explored the prominent thought of life after death to a point of scientific examination and experimentation.
