Download or read book From Glory to Glory The Psychodynamics of Salvation in Christ written by H. Owen Ward PhD and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2015-11-18 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity is one of the most popular subjects of debate in the world today. In this book, Dr. Ward directs the debate to the Bible itself. He contends that the core of the biblical revelation of Christ has been overlooked, ignored and even dismissed throughout thousands of years of Church history. He challenges us to look deeper into the Scripture and discover what it means that Jesus is Christ. As many precious gifts come in a small package, Christ is identified in the Bible with one small, five letter word used in its metaphysical context only four times in only one chapter of the New Testament. In the beginning was the Logos and the Logos was with God and the Logos was God…and the Logos became flesh and dwelt among us (Jn. 1:1, 14). As Dr. Ward demonstrates, once we have a grasp of the meaning of this single Word, it acts like a secret code unlocking the vision of the Big Picture, Grand Design God intended when he inspired John to write his Gospel. Unfortunately, few Christians today know anything about the Great Conversation of philosophical thought that John adopted at the core of his God-Story. Dr. Ward invites us into our own personal psychological encounter with a here-and-now renaissance Return to Antiquity, joining the Church Fathers who dedicated their lives to the depth of this expansive vision. Open your mind to revision and redefine your faith. Let the big “T” Truth transform your mind, heal your wounds and open your heart to this wonderful heritage at the root of the great Christian tradition—From Glory to Glory!

Download or read book Self and Salvation written by David F. Ford and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-03-04 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This eagerly awaited book by David F. Ford makes a unique and important contribution to the debate about the Christian doctrine of salvation. Using the pivotal image of the face, Professor Ford offers a constructive and contemporary account of the self being transformed. He engages with three modern thinkers (Levinas, Jüngel and Ricoeur) in order to rethink and reimagine the meaning of self. Developing the concept of a worshipping self, he explores the dimensions of salvation through the lenses of scripture, worship practices, the life, death and resurrection of Christ, and the lives of contemporary saints. He uses different genres and traditions to show how the self flourishes through engagement with God, other people, and the responsibilities and joys of ordinary living. The result is a habitable theology of salvation immersed in Christian faith, thought and practice while also being deeply involved with modern life in a pluralist world.
Download or read book The Meaning of Salvation written by Michael Green and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-28 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Green shines a light on salvation as it appears in Scripture and in our lives. In this perennial classic of soteriology, Michael Green explores the deeply human longing for salvation. But what did salvation mean to Jewish and Gentile people at the time of Jesus? Green traces salvation through the Old Testament, first-century Greco-Roman sources, and the New Testament. What emerges is the conviction that salvation is not just a hope for the future, but an offer of redemptive grace for the here and now. In a culture increasingly rife with despair and anxiety, Green’s timeless work offers a message of hope in the good news of Jesus Christ. “There are few ways in which the Church could better serve this generation than by recovery, a translation into modern idiom, and a bold proclamation of the wonderfully comprehensive message of salvation contained in the Scriptures.”
Download or read book A Cultural Theology of Salvation written by Clive Marsh and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2018-11 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There aren't many serious works of systematic theology which engage with Breaking Bad, The Big Bang Theory, Crazy Heart, theories of capital and positive psychology, as well as the Isenheim Altarpiece and Handel's Messiah. This lively, contemporary study of salvation does precisely that. Christian doctrine cannot simply repeat what has gone before, even as it recognises the value and richness of the traditions Christianity carries with it. Clive Marsh acknowledges this in exploring how doctrine interweaves with life experience and cultural consumption. A Cultural Theology of Salvation considers how salvation is to be understood and articulated now, when the theme of 'redemption' appears outside of Christianity in the arts and popular culture. Marsh also assesses whether contemporary interest in 'happiness' has anything to do with salvation. The first part of the book sets the enquiry in the context of how theology operates as a discipline, and the cultural climate in which theology has to be done. The second part offers a number of case-studies (in art, music, TV, film, positive psychology, and economic life) exploring how the concerns of a doctrine of salvation are addressed directly and indirectly in Western culture. The third part distils the results of the case-studies in formulating a contemporary exposition of salvation, and concludes by showing what this means in practice.
Download or read book Light on the Human Heart written by Colin Patterson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-07-18 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We know that there are parts of our self which are hidden from our view. Many of us wonder how we might identify those deeper aspects of ourselves that shape our thoughts and actions. What really is in the human heart? This book seeks to shed some light on the matter by analyzing the basic human motives which have evolved over millions of years and today lie―largely closed to our awareness ―beneath the sophisticated persona we present to the public. The author writes as a Christian theologian who seeks to both contribute to the renewal of theological anthropology and to assist believers to deepen their understanding of themselves and the world in which they live, and in so doing grow to a fuller maturity as disciples of Jesus Christ.

Download or read book Christianity and Mental Health written by Kam-Shing Yip and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirituality, Christianity and mental health have long been a concern in our society. This concern is increasingly pressing in recent decades as mental problems soar because of tension, anxiety, failure and frustration in our societies. In terms of Christian belief, spirituality is interpreted as the encounter with The Almighty God and the total recognition and surrender to the salvation of Jesus Christ. Thus, mental health, in terms of Christianity, should consist of two major different types. The first type is secular mental health. The second type should be a sacred and spiritual model of mental health. This book focuses on a combination of secular discussions as well as a biblical interpretation of Christianity and mental health, hardship and resilience, rejoice and sadness, freedom and inner conflict, sins and spiritual transcendence. Chapter one starts with a comprehensive review on the concept of secular mental health. The writer describes an initial conceptualization of sacred mental health within Christian belief and biblical articulation. Chapter Two is a full articulation of secular and Christian concepts of suffering described in the Book of Job. Chapter Three is a refined comparison among secular concepts about positive psychology and happiness, existential articulation on the meaning of life, as well as the full articulation of rejoice from imitation of Christ humility in Book of Philippians written by Paul in Holy Bible. Chapter Four is a comprehensive discussion on secular and sacred conflicts in Christians as well as freedom from a connection with the Holy Spirit and immersion with Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection.
