Psalm 118 in the New Testament
ISBN: 9783838300115 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Psalm 118 is one of the most quoted psalms in the
New Testament and perhaps even the most quoted Old Testament chapter. But in the New Testament literature, the same attention was not paid to the occurrence of Psalm 118 in the New Testament. This calls for closer investigation into the use and interpretation of Psalm 118 in early Christianity. As far as the study of the Psalm 118 quotations in the New Testament is concerned, up to date, scholars have mainly concentrated on a single book or, at the most, on a few books in the New Testament. There has been no survey of Psalm 118... Psalm 118 is one of the most quoted psalms in the
New Testament and perhaps even the most quoted Old Testament chapter. But in the New Testa... |

Christian leadership is not necessarily leadership from Christians, but Leadership in the likeness of Christ.According to Jesus' prescription, leadership is service and humility.

The world would be a better place if its leaders were conscious of what it meant to be leaders. Jesus set four examplary principles in leadership. Although he knew he would be betrayed, he did not retaliate nor exclude Judas in the worshing of feet. Secondly, he robbed himself of...

The study reveals 16 similarities and 11 differences between Augustine and Wesley's concepts of prevenient grace.

Liberation Beyond Borders
ISBN: 9783838308739 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Introducing Dalit feminist biblical hermeneutics, this book is written to discuss various pressing hermeneutical issues such as the factors of subjectivity and representation, while asking who can speak of Dalit feminism, what can be defined as a Dalit feminist standpoint, and why Dalit feminist hermeneutics cannot be part of the already existing contextual methodologies such as Dalit biblical theology, feminist hermeneutics and cultural hermeneutics. In this new endeavor of biblical criticism, the narrations of auto/biographical experiences assumed a crucial role in the interpretive process....

Conscience and Culture
ISBN: 9783838357829 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Western Christianity is doctrinally and philosophically very different from traditional Japanese thinking, but in the domain of moral thought there are broad areas of fruitful dialogue, as Osamu Takeuchi's study demonstrates. Takeuchi puts the Japanese concepts of ryoshin (originally good heart/mind, or conscience) and makoto (sincerity, reality, integrity) into dialogue with historical and contemporary Catholic moral theology. Takeuchi demonstrates that traditional Japanese moral thought has much to contribute to Catholic theology, not only for Japanese Christians, but for the global church....

Avenging spirits, commonly known as ngozi by the Shona people in Zimbabwe, are one of the most feared and mysterious spiritual manifestations among African people particularly the Shona. Denying the existence of ngozi would be comparable to burying one's head in the sand and ignoring reality. An effective pastoral engagement has to start from an acknowledgement of the existing challenging phenomenon and then seek a biblical perspective that defines the crises and prescribes a solution. In this publication, Timothy Myambo provides a descriptive analysis of the ngozi phenomenon. He engages a...

ISBN: 9783838301921 / Angielski / Miękka / 644 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The reception of Vatican II has been stalled because the interpretations of its understanding of the Church vary widely. Some scholars claim nothing changed about the Church's self-understanding; other scholars claim that everything changed. This study shows that there was a trajectory of progressive ideas that provided the theological gravity for the Council. The most important of these ideas was a rich theology of the Holy Spirit. This study describes tthis pneumatology that emerged during the Council. The identification of this pneumatology is an essential step towards identifying the...

Caroline Fry: A Practical Theology of the Sacraments
ISBN: 9783838335018 / Angielski / Miękka / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the past centuries, women have held an important legacy in the Anglican Church, yet we know very little about the written contributions made, especially in relation to womens'theological opinions in a societal context where men were considered the predominant thinkers and shapers of church doctrine. Caroline Fry (1787-1846), one of many women during the nineteenth century, discovered a unique opportunity to verbalize her written views and engage herself in the controversial debates taking place between church parties in the Church of England in regards to sacramental theology. Fry was an...

Nikolai Berdiaev's Freedom to Create
ISBN: 9783838339276 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores Nikolai Berdiaev's thought on freedom and the 'creative act.' Berdiaev's vision contains two types of freedom - first is a nuanced multi-layered conception of human freedom that offers intriguing possibilities for considering freedom and creativity with its implications for humanity. The second type is a speculative metaphysical view that attempts to explain freedom as non-determination and answer the challenges of theodicy. This research also contends that his thought is most comprehensible from a theological perspective: a perspective that underscores the significant...

What is the meaning of salvation in The Salvation Army today?
ISBN: 9783838301167 / Angielski / Miękka / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Salvation Army, through a multitude of social services right across the world, is involved daily in saving people from the devastating impacts of poverty, homelessness, addictions, unemployment and a wide range of other predicaments. However, the dominant internal rhetoric about salvation would appear to suggest that theologically these efforts are at best secondary to an evangelical mission of conversion. What good is it to save people's bodies if their souls are damned to hell? A critical task of this study will be to explore theological notions of salvation which encourage a holistic...

Laying Down the Foundations for Caribbean Theologies

At the current moment of the development of a theology or various theologies of or for the Caribbean, one needs to define more than one word. Theology itself needs to be re defined and re examined in the context of the religious experience of the people from this region. One of the achievements of 20th century theories of knowledge and culture has been the increasing awareness that the way things are perceived is intrinsically linked with the background of the "perceiver." In the light of these developments in the field of knowledge and culture theories, Caribbean thinkers and social agents...

This study investigates the narrative of the Acts of the Apostles in relation to its description of the earliest community of the followers of Jesus Christ in view of drawing out the theme of inclusiveness. The literary terms used by the author of Acts which reflect inclusiveness are studied. The theme of inclusiveness is also investigated in terms of persons mentioned as inviting or enabling others to become part of the Christian community; these are labelled in this study "personal links".

The Transformative Potential of Memory, Narrative, and Solidarity
ISBN: 9783838373058 / Angielski / Miękka / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As we approach the end of the first decade of the twenty-first century Western theology is experiencing something of a conservative backlash. In the Roman Catholic Church the contextual and engaging vision of Vatican II is becoming harder to sustain. As one of the practical critical theologies that blossomed in the decades after Vatican II, feminist theological perspectives are again striving to have their voices heard in a theological conversation that is resisting the voices of diversity and returning to a more homogenous understanding and interpretation of what it means to be 'Church.'...

The present work examines the crossroads of social transformation from the contextual standpoint of the "Second World" - a political and socioeconomic term descriptively pointing to the unique location of the Former Eastern-European Block countries - in between worlds. The work dialogues with some of the major trends within the contemporary Eastern- European philosophical environment, dichotomized between Neo-Marxism and Neo-Freudianism on the one hand, and Postmodernism on the other. While engaging these theories, the text outlines a theological paradigm for an authentic social...
