Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Infinite and the Old Theology Some years ago, in the course of a lecture dealing with Mathematics regarded as a distinctive type of thought and with its relations to other varieties of philosophic and scientific activity, I ventured to say: "I do not believe that the declined estate of Theology is destined to be permanent. The present is but an interregnum in her reign, and her fallen days will have an end. She has been deposed mainly because she has not seen fit to avail herself promptly and fully of the dispensations of advancing knowledge. The aims, however, of the ancient mistress are as high as ever, and when she shall have made good her present lick of modern education and learned to extend a generous and eager hospitality to modern light, she will reascend and will occupy with dignity, as of yore, an exalted place in the ascending scale of human interests and the esteem of enlightened men. And Mathematics, by the inmost character of her being, is especially qualified, I believe, to assist in the restoration."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The New Infinite and the Old Theology" is the title Professor Keyser gives to his study of the infinite from the viewpoint of the mathematician. Reason comes to the relief of theology. It is an apologetic presentation, in a way, since he aims to make the acceptance of the infinite both possible and easy from a mathematical viewpoint. The author regards theology as suffering a merely temporary decline-she has not availed herself of advancing knowledge. Mathematics is "especially qualified to assist her." Theology as an attempt to reach ideas, to reduce life to a formula is an absurd failure -not ideas but ideals, should be the goal, and the infinites exist as ideals rather than as ideas. Theology is not the science of religion (pp. 14, 15). "Theology is not a branch of analytical psychology, nor a branch of anthropology." Nor is "religion" the subject-matter of theology. "Religion is essentially emotion; theology is doctrine; the former feels, the latter thinks; theology is a structure, an edifice of thought; religion is a flow-a stream of sentiment," and so on. The subject matter of theology "consists of rational phenomena." "It is the task of theology to study these implications of logical thought which are hyperlogical and to interpret them in rational terms." There is a "supernalizing power;" this presents theology its task. "Theology is the science of idealization. The phenomena of idealization spring from foundations deeper than the will; their credentials are cosmic. Theology thus deals not with ideas, but ideals. Ideals are not to be grasped; they are things to be reached for. Theology must study the grounds and source of these ideals. God is, for example, not an idea, but an ideal. Theology cannot be a science of the overworld as astronomy is a science of the heavenly bodies. The overwork! faces downward and presents itself to reason as ideals. Of these theology speaks. While science is, as commonly defined, essentially atheistic, scientific man is not. Man is infinitely greater than science. Thus our author indicates a field for theology apart from science, and he proceeds to bring the Infinite, as it were, within reach by a course of mathematical reasoning. Some mathematical wonders are unfolded. The outcome of his search and reasoning is that the whole and the part may both be infinite. There is no absurdity in this thought. It is a mathematical commonplace. Infinites are not all alike. "There are countless mathematical infinities or infinitudes or infinites." The Infinite of theology is the envelope, enfolding them all. Thus Dr. Keyser leads to the Infinite of theology by way of the infinites within it. The infinite is in the finite, as mathematics shows. There is much interesting, and occasionally intricate reasoning, whereby mathematics justifies both the Dignity of Omniscience and Freedom; the fact of omnipresence as one of the "intelligible ideals." An illustration is found in the concept of "hyperspace." There results the "conceivability of the infinite Being being everywhere present in an infinite region without being contained in it." Mathematics contains the wonders which are found in theology, and theology can profit by the belief which mathematicians bestow on their wonders and seeming incredibilities. -Auburn Seminary Record, Vol. 12
Download or read book A New Testament Biblical Theology written by G. K. Beale and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 1198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this comprehensive exposition, a leading New Testament scholar explores the unfolding theological unity of the entire Bible from the vantage point of the New Testament. G. K. Beale, coeditor of the award-winning Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament, examines how the New Testament storyline relates to and develops the Old Testament storyline. Beale argues that every major concept of the New Testament is a development of a concept from the Old and is to be understood as a facet of the inauguration of the latter-day new creation and kingdom. Offering extensive interaction between the two testaments, this volume helps readers see the unifying conceptual threads of the Old Testament and how those threads are woven together in Christ. This major work will be valued by students of the New Testament and pastors alike.

Download or read book Biblical Theology written by Geerhardus Vos and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2003-07-10 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is no less than to provide an account of the unfolding of the mind of God in history, through the successive agents of his special revelation. Vos handles this under three main divisions: the Mosaic epoch of revelation, the prophetic epoch of revelation, and the New Testament. Such an historical approach is not meant to supplant the work of the systematic theologian; nevertheless, the Christian gospel is inextricably bound up with history, and the biblical theologian thus seeks to highlight uniqueness of each biblical document in that succession. The rich variety of Scripture is discovered anew as the progressive development of biblical themes is explicated. To read these pages--the fruit of Vos' 39 years of teaching biblical theology at Princeton - is to appreciate the late John Murray's suggestion that Geerhardus Vos was the most incisive exegete in the English-speaking world of the twentieth century.
