Download or read book Confronting the Mystery of God written by Gaspar Martinez and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-05-13 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A highly insightful study of three major movements in Roman Catholic theology over the past thirty years. This fascinating work of theological scholarship offers an exceptionally broad scope and powerfully unifying theme. Gaspar Martinez first offers penetrating interpretations of three major contemporary theologians working on three continents, in quite dissimilar historical, cultural, social, and economic situations. Then he goes on to illustrate how Johannes Metz, Gustavo GutiTrrez, and David Tracy each had a tensive ongoing relationship to the mid-twentieth century theologians and movements that formed them-Karl Rahner, nouvelle theologie, and Bernard Lonergan, respectively. Martinez brilliantly contextualizes each of these thinkers. In broad strokes, he sketches postwar Germany, postcolonial Peru, and the American century and shows how each man was formed by his era. He also examines the lines of influence and relationship between these theologians and some of their nontheological contemporaries: Metz and Adorno, Bloch, and Benjamin; GutiTrrez and Paulo Freire, JosT Carlos Mariategui, and the novelist JosT Marfa Arguedas; and Tracy and thinkers from Eliade and Ricoeur to Gadamer and Derrida.Martinez convincingly illustrates how each of these theologians in recent years has focused more directly on the mystery of God, entailing greater emphasis on spirituality and mysticism, with the consequence that the more properly theological their theologies have become the more they have become negative theologies.
Download or read book The Mystery of God and Suffering written by Kenneth R. Overberg SJ and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans have long searched for an adequate answer to an age-old question: If God is good, why do we suffer? An entire book of the Bible, Job, is dedicated to the problem of God and human suffering. Theologians across continents and centuries have debated the intricacies, inconsistencies, and assumptions the question elicits. And of course, many have turned to Jesus's own suffering, and his horrible death at the cross, in search of understanding. All too often, the resulting approaches to the mystery of suffering, though linked to the Jewish and Christian Scriptures and traditions, fail to satisfy contemporary hearts and minds. The Mystery of God and Suffering draws guidance from the Gospel of John and the letters to the Colossians and the Ephesians, and focuses on God's overflowing love in creation as a foundation for understanding Jesus's death and its implications for those who follow him. This work offers an alternative vision, one emphasizing incarnation over atonement, for all those who find themselves uneasy or even oppressed by the notion of a vindictive God who demands the suffering and death of his son. The Mystery of God and Suffering also speaks to a larger audience, comprised of all those who suffer and search for meaning in their suffering. With a focus on the eternal concepts of life and love that are not simply integral to but inseparable from a God who is good, as well as on insights of believers through the ages, The Mystery of God and Suffering offers wise guidance for our journey into the abyss of suffering.

Book excerpt: In this second installment of The Mystery of the Will of God, book series, we continue our search, from Book 1, for the full and deeper understanding of the Mystery of the Will of God, through the scriptural Mystery of Godliness. (1Ti 3:16) Beginning with Chapter 6 the work briefly discusses the problem and root of gender discrimination, also known as having respect of persons based on one's gender. Chapter 7 then points us to a deeper walk in Christ by teaching us how to walk in the Spirit and what it means to be perfect as commanded in Matthew 5:48. Chapter 8 then reveals God's plan to assist us in our striving for perfection, through the operation of the spiritual gifts. And finally, in Chapter 9 we deal with the dreaded carnal Christian-Christians who believe in Jesus but openly reject him and his Word, by their works and lifestyle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God does keep secrets. Even great heroes of faith like Abraham, Moses, and the Old Testament prophets faced mysteries about God and his kingdom. Understanding God's plans is like watching a train emerge from a tunnel: you can see the cars that have emerged and get a sense of where the train is going, but you can't see the cars still in the tunnel. While many details of God's revelation train are still shrouded, secrets hidden for centuries are now revealed to us. John Van Diest and Alton Gansky help us see and understand these secrets, which are hiding in plain sight in the words of Jesus and throughout the Bible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now available in English for the first time, Ysabel de Andia’s double exploration of Christian and Hindu mysticism provides a valuable addition to the field. Composed from lectures given in Benares in 2015 to priests of the Missions Étrangères de Paris, Mystery of God, Mystery of Christ combines the two main research interests that have defined de Andia’s career: first, an understanding of Christian mysticism as growing out of the Christian mystery of Christ and the sacrament, and secondly, the relationship between this and Hindu contemplative prayer as articulated by Jules Monchanin. Beginning with the Cappadocian fathers, de Andai traces the developing interpretation of Mystery through Christian thinkers from Origen and Gregory of Nyssa to Basil and Dionysios the Areopagite. From here, she begins to dovetail this study with an exploration of Hindu contemplation, relating the Carmelite mystic St John of the Cross to the Advaitist tradition, especially as expounded by Shankara. Throughout, her masterful understanding of both traditions is apparent. For English readers, her insight will provide a fresh perspective on this lively subject area.

Download or read book Uncovering the Mysteries of God written by Jeff Kinley and published by Gospel Light Publications. This book was released on 2008-02-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How could Christ be fully man and fully God? If God is all-loving and all-powerful, why does he allow pain and suffering? Although we have all heard these questions before, and perhaps asked them ourselves, Jeff Kinley presents these age-old questions in a new light, one that speaks to today’s generation and their perspective on the world. Structured like a mystery novel, Uncovering the Mysteries of God has each chapter center on an issue or “case,” as in Chapter 8: “Case of the Disappearing Bride—The Mystery of the Rapture” where Kinley examines what the Bible says about the return of Christ, treating it like a Missing Persons’ File. For this generation of believers who are willing to linger in the unknown, Kinley does not really answer any of the questions he poses, but simply comes to them with fresh perspective, some hard facts, and a captivating style that will inspire readers to try and solve these mysteries for themselves.

This book was released on 2011-08-10 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world has rehearsed many stories, fables and secrets since the fall of man, in an attempt to teach some moral lesson or ethical grace. However, the greatest mystery ever revealed was first hidden by God, Himself, in Himself, long before the first Adam was formed from the dust of the earth. This mystery, having been kept secret since the world began was revealed only after the last Adam, Jesus Christ, died, rose, ascended and returned as the Comforter on the day of Pentecost. This Book 1 begins the four volume journey revealing that Will of God that was made a mystery, concluding that Adam and Eve possessed the indwelling Spirit of God.
