Living with Ambiguity: Religious Naturalism and the Menace of Evil
ISBN: 9780791475201 / Angielski / Miękka / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this book Donald A. Crosby looks at how a religion based on the sacredness of nature deals with the problem of evil. Further developing and defending the vision of religious thought and life elaborated in his previous work, A Religion of Nature, Crosby explores how such a vision can enable us to interpret, respond to, and cope with the diverse forms of evil in the world, arguing that an ambiguity of goods and evils in human life, in nature as a whole, and in any conceivable or desirable realm of existence is inevitable. It is therefore futile to seek recourse in powers, presences, states,...

Had we at long last developed the characteristics and perspectives that religion had attempted to ingrain within us? Or were the rules and regulations of organized religion still needed to ensure the continued advancement of civilization? This is a study of two opposing voices in that debate: theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer... As the twentieth century dawned in the western world,

Graebner was one of the Missouri Synod's most brilliant scholars and the very first to work in English fluently and powerfully.

Christ Condemned Sin in the Flesh
ISBN: 9783639166552 / Angielski / Miękka / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Thomas F. Torance argues that St. Paul teaches that God has truly dealt with sin and guilt, and thus brought forth the new creation, by Christ coming in the likeness of sinful flesh to condemn sin in the flesh. Thus, I argue that Torrance's soteriological doctrine of ontological healing provides the Church with a profound and radical way of understanding the biblical teaching that Christ condemned sin in the flesh, by making evident the intrinsic relationship between the incarnation and atonement. Furthermore, Torrance gives the Church a way of integrating central forensic aspects of...

The Modified Wisdom View of Guidance
ISBN: 9783639166286 / Angielski / Miękka / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While evangelical Christians seem to agree that God
guides his people, they are far from reaching a consensus on precisely how God guides. This book helpfully identifies and evaluates three evangelical positions on the subject of guidance and defends what is here called the modified wisdom view. In contrast to both the blueprint and wisdom views, which maintain, respectively, that God always and never gives special, personalized messages of guidance, the modified wisdom view argues that special guidance is possible, but not promised, for Christians today. Instead, God intends for Christians... While evangelical Christians seem to agree that God

Philosophical and Theological Essays on the Trinity
ISBN: 9780199216215 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Classical Christian orthodoxy insists that God is Triune: there is only one God, but there are three divine Persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - who are somehow of one substance with one another. But what does this doctrine mean? How can we coherently believe that there is only one God if we also believe that there are three divine Persons? This problem, sometimes called the 'threeness-oneness problem' or the 'logical problem of the Trinity', is the focus of this interdisciplinary volume.

Lux Mundi: A Series of Studies in the Religion of the Incarnation

Charles Gore (1853 1932), the future Bishop of Oxford and a passionate campaigner for social justice, compiled and edited these twelve theological essays published in 1891. The eleven contributors, all Oxford scholars at some time, shared the conviction that theology must engage with advances in scientific and historical knowledge, learn from them, and use them in interpreting Christian doctrine. In their case, this meant recognising God at work in the material world, in evolution, and in society, not merely at the spiritual level. 'If the true meaning of the faith is to be made sufficiently...

Sin and Temptation helps us recover the concepts of sin and individual responsibility our world has all but destroyed. John Owen, an English theologian of vast learning, has dealt with the nature of sinful humanity as no writer has done as keenly or thoroughly, arguing that sin is always a self-deceiving, blinding folly.
