Download or read book The Foundations of New Testament Christology written by R. H. Fuller and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2022-07-28 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the key tasks of New Testament study is to construct a correct doctrine of the person of Jesus Christ, which is central to the Christian faith. In The Foundations of New Testament Christology, R.H. Fuller fulfils this task through a close examination of the first-century texts in both their Palestinian and Hellenistic contexts. An exponent of the neo-orthodox position that dominated post-war scholarship in the field, central to Fuller's argument is the 'traditio-historical' approach to New Testament criticism. As Fuller sees it, 'the Church's Christology was a response to its total encounter with Jesus, not only in his earthly history but also in the Church's continuing life'. By emphasising the continuity between the historical Jesus and the witness and message of the early post-resurrection church, he offers a comprehensive and thorough survey of this most important facet of exegesis.

Download or read book John s Apologetic Christology written by James F. McGrath and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-09-06 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gospel according to John presents Jesus in a unique way as compared with other New Testament writings. Scholars have long puzzled and pondered over why this should be. In this book, James McGrath offers a convincing explanation of how and why the author of the Fourth Gospel arrived at a christological portrait of Jesus that is so different from that of other New Testament authors, and yet at the same time clearly has its roots in earlier tradition. McGrath suggests that as the author of this Gospel sought to defend his beliefs about Jesus against the objections brought by opponents, he developed and drew out further implications from the beliefs he inherited. The book studies this process using insights from the field of sociology which helps to bring methodological clarity to the important issue of the development of Johannine Christology.

Download or read book Christ and the New Creation written by Matthew Y. Emerson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-04-10 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Christ and the New Creation, Matthew Emerson takes a fresh approach to understanding New Testament theology by using a canonical methodology. Although typically confined to Old Testament theology, Emerson sees fruitfulness in applying this method to New Testament theology as well. Instead of a thematic or book-by-book analysis, Emerson attempts to trace the primary theological message of the New Testament through paying attention to its narrative and canonical shape. He concludes that the order of the books of the New Testament emphasize the story of Christ's inauguration, commissioning, and consummation of the new creation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Download or read book Christology written by Gerald O'Collins and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2009-07-08 with total page 906 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fully revised and updated second edition of his accessible account of systematic Christology, Gerald O'Collins continues to challenge the contemporary publishing trend for sensationalist books on Jesus that are supported neither by the New Testament witness nor by mainline Christian beliefs. This book critically examines the best biblical and historical scholarship before tackling head-on some of the key questions of systematic Christology: does orthodox faith present Jesus the man as deficient and depersonalized? Is his sinlessness compatible with the exercise of a free human will? Does up-to-date exegesis challenge his virginal conception and personal resurrection? Can one reconcile Jesus' role as universal Saviour with the truth and values to be found in other religions? What should the feminist movement highlight in presenting Jesus? This integral Christology is built around the resurrection of the crucified Jesus, highlights love as the key to redemption, and proposes a synthesis of the divine presence through Jesus. Clear, balanced, and accessible, this book should be valued by any student reading systematic theology, anyone training for the ministry in all denominations, as well as interested general readers.
