The Quotable Newman, Vol. II
ISBN: 9781304365132 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This volume supplements "The Quotable Newman" (Sophia Institute Press, 2012), with 136 new topics and an overlap of 39 topics. Volume II is a bit more wide-ranging and perhaps also more "fun" (in a sense) for Newman devotees. Examples of the latter aspect might include Cardinal Newman's reflections upon his own writing and books, science and Christianity, heaven and hell, and old age. The citations also tend to be relatively shorter, and to include proportionately more material from his correspondence. I found two additional volumes of "Letters and Diaries" (volumes 27 and 28): covering the...

The Quotable Summa Theologica
ISBN: 9781300688518 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) was without question the greatest theologian in the history of the Catholic Church, and the "Summa Theologica" (1271-1274) was his masterpiece and one of the most influential theological books ever written. The goal herein is to make the thought and reasoning of this marvelous compendium of the Angelic Doctor more accessible and able to be referenced quickly. My overwhelming emphasis in collecting excerpts will be on theology itself; with far less on the topics of spirituality, ethics, and other areas. Sometimes even those of us who love Aquinas, have neither...

The Quotable Augustine: Distinctively Catholic Elements in His Theology
ISBN: 9781300149835 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 245 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Protestants (especially Reformed Protestants, or Calvinists) often assert that St. Augustine's views were closer to theirs than to the present-day Catholic Church. My aim is to systematically document St. Augustine's advocacy of positions that historic Protestantism has expressly rejected, and (conversely) detail his opposition to some doctrines or beliefs that it has (generally speaking) espoused. Quotations are drawn from 44 separate works of St. Augustine, arranged under 157 topics, and also arranged chronologically within topics, insofar as that can be determined. This helps to clarify...

Development of Catholic Doctrine: Evolution, Revolution, or an Organic Process?
ISBN: 9781430321064 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. C.S. Lewis, the famous Anglican writer, once wrote: "The very possibility of progress demands that there should be an unchanging element . . . the positive historical statements made by Christianity have the power . . . of receiving, without intrinsic change, the increasing complexity of meaning which increasing knowledge puts into them" ("God in the Dock," Eerdmans, Grand Rapids, MI, 1970, 44-47). Doctrine clearly develops within Scripture ("progressive revelation"). Examples: doctrines of the afterlife, the Trinity, the Messiah (eventually revealed as God the Son), the Holy Spirit (Divine...

Cardinal Newman: Q & A in Theology, Church History, and Conversion
ISBN: 9781329162167 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Cardinal Newman stated "I am not a theologian" many times in his letters. In the strict "academic" or "scholarly" sense, indeed he was not. Yet in another broader sense, he certainly was one. In any event, he wrote exquisitely on theology. His personal letters were "popular" and non-technical. In effect, here he becomes a catechist and apologist. Scholars write to and for other scholars, whereas Catholic catechists, apologists, and evangelists try to reach the masses (and Catholics) with the good news of the glorious fullness of the Catholic Christian faith. Moreover, in Cardinal Newmans...

"The Catholic Mary": Quite Contrary to the Bible?
ISBN: 9781312366930 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 189 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The theology and beliefs concerning the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of our Lord Jesus, have long been a contentious issue between Catholics and Protestants. The latter often maintain that "the Catholic Mary" is a corruption of the true biblical Mary: the humble and lowly handmaiden. Catholic apologist Dave Armstrong shows how the "Catholic" and the "biblical" Mary are indeed one and the same. Tackling controversial topics such as Marys Immaculate Conception, Assumption, and perpetual virginity, asking Mary to intercede, the Rosary, the flowery and seemingly excessive devotional language of...

Revelation! 1001 Bible Answers to Theological Questions
ISBN: 9781304508539 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. My aim is to make it easier to quickly find biblical answers to theological questions that are of perennial importance. I presuppose the inspiration and infallibility of the Bible, and this book is for Christians who accept those notions. This volume provides Bible passages (usually one verse; sometimes a few together) that are (in my opinion) the very best "answers" to a large number of one-sentence questions. The format might remind one of the popular TV game show "Jeopardy," where the contestants are given a piece of information and have to come up with a question that it is the "answer"...

Catholic Converts and Conversion
ISBN: 9781300918608 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The last 25 years have been a very exciting time in the Catholic world, in terms of an increasing flow of converts. Dr. Scott Hahn, a former Presbyterian minister, was received into the Church at Easter 1986, and immediately started making a splash with his exciting conversion testimony. Meanwhile, Karl Keating began publishing "The Catholic Answers Newsletter" in August 1986. Thus, that year may be regarded as the starting-date of the current "Catholic apologetics / influx of converts revival" -- with Hahn and Keating as the two founding fathers. I tell my own conversion story in Part II of...

A Biblical Critique of Calvinism
ISBN: 9781300333722 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this volume I reply to biblical arguments from John Calvin in Books I-III of his "Institutes of the Christian Religion," in instances where he takes a position that is contrary to Catholic theology. Taking on John Calvin's exegetical arguments in this fashion will, it is hoped, demonstrate the persistent fallacies and falsehoods (from the Catholic perspective) that are frequently found in his writing, and illustrate at least some ways to refute and overcome them. Catholics regard Calvinists and other Protestants as brethren in Christ, and rejoice over the many important beliefs that we...

Science and Christianity: Close Partners or Mortal Enemies?
ISBN: 9781105537332 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. It's very fashionable nowadays to assert that Christianity and science are antithetical, or that God has been ruled out of science or disproven (particularly by Darwinian evolution), or that science is based on reason and evidence, whereas religion (being faith-based) supposedly cares little or nothing for same, or that one cannot consistently be a Christian and also a "real" scientist. I shall contend that not only are science and Christianity completely compatible, but that modern science would not have even gotten off the ground if it hadn't been for medieval, scholastic, Catholic thought....

Examination and rational comparison of the Christian and postmodernist philosophies, with in-depth treatment of such important topics as the problem of evil, the "problem of good" and meaningfulness in atheism, miracles, the relationship of Christianity to science and scientific method, atheist unproven axioms and premises, and the cosmological and teleological arguments for God's existence.

Biblical Catholic Eucharistic Theology

Among the topics covered are: 1) the special presence of God in physical objects in the OT, 2) comparison of the indwelling & the Real Presence, 3) doubting disciples in the eucharistic discourse of John 6, 4) exclusion of non-Catholics from Catholic communion, 5) St. Augustines & John Calvins views, 6) the Church fathers on the Sacrifice of the Mass, 7) St. Pauls ""priestly"" references, 8) biblical, analogical arguments for the Sacrifice...

Pope Francis Explained: Survey of Myths, Legends, and Catholic Defenses in Harmony with Tradition
ISBN: 9781304831606 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 127 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. It seems that everyone wants to make the pope into their own image. Those outside the Church want him to be so-called "progressive" and are more than willing to project this attribute onto him, in a huge campaign of wishful thinking. But radical Catholic reactionaries, on the extreme right on the Catholic ecclesiological spectrum, become alarmed that the Church is compromising itself. A third group of obedient orthodox Catholics understand the pope's role and the nature and status of Catholic dogmas (which do not change), yet are confused by something a new pope says or does. Their concern is...

Reflections on Radical Catholic Reactionaries
ISBN: 9781304338495 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. I have sought to analyze (minus proper names, a la Trent) the premises, presuppositions, logical and ecclesiological "bottom lines" and (in a word), the spirit of a false and divisive radical Catholic reactionary strain of thought held by a distinctive and tiny sub-group of Catholics. The term "traditionalism" has been co-opted by groups and schools of thought within Catholicism that vary quite widely. It's similar to the love and adoption of the word "Christian" by many sects that are not Christian at all (since they deny the Holy Trinity or the divinity of Jesus Christ). Apologists and...

Mass Movements
ISBN: 9781300549116 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This volume consists of essays on 1) the distinction between the extreme radical Catholic reactionaries and mainstream "traditionalists," 2) the New (Pauline, Novus Ordo) Mass and its liturgical abuses, and 3) genuine, orthodox (not silly liberal) ecumenism. Radical Catholic reactionaries have been misled by various errors of the nature of what is called "rigorism." This recurring problem throughout Church history is seen in groups such as the Donatists, Montanists, Jansenists, and the Old Catholics who left the Church after Vatican I (1870): an error of thinking and out-of-whack perspective;...

Bible Conversations: Catholic-Protestant Dialogues on the Bible, Tradition, and Salvation
ISBN: 9781430321040 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Fifteen dialogues loosely based on encounters of a Catholic apologist with Protestants, over the course of nearly five years of Internet discussions on lists, bulletin boards, and private correspondence. The most important and fundamental issues that divide Protestants and Catholics are dealt with: the relationship of Bible and tradition, the authority of the Church, whether the Church and tradition can be infallible like the Bible, how one is saved, the relationship of faith and works, whether Catholics believe in "salvation by works," grace alone, etc.
