Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Sacramentality' can serve as a category that helps to understand the performative power of religious and legal rituals. Through the analysis of 'sacraments', we can observe how law uses sacramentality to change reality through performative action, and how religion uses law to organise religious rituals, including sacraments. The study of sacramental action thus shows how law and religion intertwine to produce legal, spiritual, and other social effects. In this volume, Judith Hahn explores this interplay by interpreting the Catholic sacraments as examples of sacro-legal symbols that draw on the sacramental functioning of the law to provide both spiritual and legal goods to church members. By focusing on sacro-legal symbols from the perspective of sacramental theology, legal studies, ritual theory, symbol theory, and speech act theory, Hahn's study reveals how law and religion work hand in hand to shape our social reality.

Download or read book Swear to God written by Scott Hahn and published by Image. This book was released on 2005-10-18 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most solemn, majestic, and beautiful gifts that Jesus Christ gave to the world are His sacraments. He endowed them with unprecedented and unparalleled power—power to change lives, save souls, and share God’s very life. The sacraments are the ordinary means by which God directs the course of each human life and all of world history. The Church celebrates seven sacraments: baptism, Eucharist, confirmation, matrimony, holy orders, confession, and anointing of the sick. Each was established by Jesus for the sake of salvation. When Jesus spoke of the sacraments, He made clear that they were essential: Unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God (Jn 3:5) . . . unless you eat of the flesh of the Son of man and drink His blood, you have no life in you (Jn 6: 53). In Swear to God, Dr. Scott Hahn explores the richness of Christ’s sacraments—their doctrine, history, symbols, and rituals. Drawing upon the Bible and the Church’s tradition, he shows how God’s covenants—with Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and David—became the driving forces in history. When Jesus came to fulfill all these covenants, He established a new covenant, with greater power than ever before. Christians are God’s children now. Joined to Christ by baptism, we can already share in the eternal life of the Trinity, a life we hope to know fully in heaven. But heaven is with us, even now, in the sacraments.

Download or read book Rediscovering Aquinas and the Sacraments written by Matthew Levering and published by LiturgyTrainingPublications. This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Thomas Aquinas of the Sacraments offers a brief and readable essay on each of the seven sacraments as presented by St. Thomas Aquinas, in addition to chapters on his theology of worship and his understanding of liturgical devotion. The essays are written for students, scholars, and pastors who seek to learn more about Aquinas's sacramental theology. Each chapter introduces certain aspects of Aquinas's approach and opens up avenues for further reflection. In recent years, philosophical and theological interest in Aquinas's sacramental theology and theology of the liturgy seems to be significantly increasing in ecumenical circles. This unique collection, featuring the new research of some of expert sacramental theologians sheds new light on the little-known the contributions of Aquinas to sacramental theology, and the medieval tradition to which he belongs.
Download or read book General Principles of Sacramental Theology written by Roger W. Nutt and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General Principles of Sacramental Theology addresses a current lacuna in English language theological literature. Bernard Leeming’s highly respected book Principles of Sacramental Theology was published more than sixty years ago. Since that time, there has been a noted decrease, especially in English language sacramental theology, in treatments of the basic topics and principles – such as the nature of the sacraments of signs, sacramental grace, sacramental character, sacramental causality, sacramental intention, the necessity and number of the sacraments, sacramental matter and form, inter alia – which apply to all of the sacraments. This book will be of use in seminary, graduate, and undergraduate courses. The sacraments play an irreplaceable role in pursuing a Universal Call to Holiness that is so central to Vatican II’s teaching.

Download or read book Study Guide to Sacramental Law written by Stanslaus Muyebe and published by Dissertation.com. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, there has been a growing interest in the narrative as an important metaphor in several academic disciplines. This work seeks to apply the narrative methodology to the study of canon law on sacraments. The emphasis in the book is on narrative as a mode of arranging and presenting knowledge. A narrative schema is therefore employed as an organizational and pedagogical tool to arrange the data on the sacramental law into a study guide. In the study guide, the material on each sacrament is arranged in terms of plots, characters and settings. In such an arrangement, the book presents pastoral problems that the canonical text on sacraments seeks to respond to. The pastoral component of canon law is thereby highlighted. The information in the book is presented in a note form and in a user-friendly format. The book limits itself to the basic concepts and basic concepts. Such a study guide would be a useful resource for the undergraduate students in Catholic Theology and the pastoral agents in the Catholic Church.
