Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lutherans in the Movements for Church Union What is offered in this-book is a reprint taken from articles as they appeared in the Lutheran Quarterly (gettysburg, during the years from January 1918 to July 1921. The suggestion for the preparation of these detailed historical reviews was received when in the fall of 1917 we promised to read a paper before the American Society of Church History in New York on the Union Movements between the Lutherans and the Re formed. After having given the matter a little more thought we felt that it was impossible to treat this sub ject with any degree of adequacy in a single paper. We therefore decided to limit ourselves in our reading before the Society to a discussion of the union movements in the Sixteenth century, which culminated in the Witten berg Concord, and then to continue our investigation along the line indicated in the table of contents of this book, thus covering all the efforts at union with the Re formed, in which the Lutheran Church has been engaged. The contents of Chapter V was read at another meeting of the American Society of Church History. The author is grateful to Drs. William W. Rockwell and Henry Preserved Smith, professors in Union Theological Seminary, for their courtesy in making possible for him the use of a very valuable collection of works on Polem ics and Irenics, which was gathered in Germany by the late Dr. Briggs and which is now a part of the library of Union Theological Seminary. He also acknowledges with much appreciation some valuable aid received from the Reference Department of the Lutheran Bureau in New York.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The doctrine of theosis has enjoyed a recent resurgence among varied theological traditions across the realms of historical, dogmatic, and exegetical theology. In Christification: A Lutheran Approach to Theosis, Jordan Cooper evaluates this teaching from a Lutheran perspective. He examines the teachings of the church fathers, the New Testament, and the Lutheran Confessional tradition in conversation with recent scholarship on theosis. Cooper proposes that the participationist soteriology of the early fathers expressed in terms of theosis is compatible with Luther's doctrine of forensic justification. The historic Lutheran tradition, Scripture, and the patristic sources do not limit soteriological discussions to legal terminology, but instead offer a multifaceted doctrine of salvation that encapsulates both participatory and forensic motifs. This is compared and contrasted with the development of the doctrine of deification in the Eastern tradition arising from the thought of Pseudo-Dionysius. Cooper argues that the doctrine of the earliest fathers--such as Irenaeus, Athanasius, and Justin--is primarily a Christological and economic reality defined as "Christification." This model of theosis is placed in contradistinction to later Neoplatonic forms of deification.

Download or read book Union with Christ written by Jordan Cooper and published by . This book was released on 2021-08 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian's participatory union with Christ is a central element of salvation, both in Scripture and in the historic Christian tradition. In the early twentieth-century, however, this theme gradually began to diminish in its prominence within Lutheran theological writing. Due to a variety of philosophical and theological shifts, many Lutherans began to emphasize forensic justification to the exclusion of participationist motifs. That forensic exclusivism is challenged in this work. In this book, Jordan Cooper articulates an approach to union with Christ that is drawn from both Patristic theology, and the classical Lutheran tradition. Throughout this study, Cooper exposits union with Christ under three distinctive categories: the objective union of God and man through the Incarnation, the formal union of faith in which the believer is united to Christ's person and work, and the mystical union through which the Triune God dwells in the hearts of Christians. This book is the sixth volume in a series titled A Contemporary Protestant Scholastic Theology.
