The Holy Spirit and Public Life

The Holy Spirit and Public Life

Autor: Mark J. Cartledge

Número de Páginas: 265

The Holy Spirit and Public Life offers a masterful analysis of the intersections between pneumatology and public theology as well as contemporary Christianity and ‘secular’ society. Examining issues from race to domestic violence with compassion as well as critical rigour, Mark J. Cartledge, one of the UK’s leading authorities on the Pentecostal/Charismatic Movement, skilfully anchors his argument in both the biblical text and insight and empirical data from the contemporary world. His deep appreciation of the many ways in which the Christian faith inspires and empowers transformative social engagement will motivate and mould the rising commitment among Pentecostals and Charismatics to live the gospel in the public square, in the power of the Spirit. Finally, Cartledge proposes that the church engage with society by “being truthful with love.” This posture provides the integrating center for the life of the church and its mission in the world.

Rhetoric and Theology

Rhetoric and Theology

Autor: William M. Wright

Número de Páginas: 261

This monograph on John 9 makes extensive use of premodern Christian exegesis as a resource for New Testament studies. The study reframes the existing critique of the two-level reading of John 9 as allegory in terms of premodern exegetical practices. It offers a hermeneutical critique of the two-level reading strategy as a kind of figural exegesis, rather than historical reconstruction, through an extensive comparison with Augustine's interpretation of John 9. A review of several premodern Christian readings of John 9 suggests an alternative way of understanding this account in terms of Greco-Roman rhetoric. John 9 resembles the rhetorical argumentation associated with chreia elaboration and the complete argument to display Jesus' identity as the Light of the World. This analysis illustrates the inseparability of form and content, rhetoric and theology, in the Fourth Gospel.

Rescued

Rescued

Autor: Kathleen Brooks

Número de Páginas: 284

Kane Townsend was with the FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit until one case changed everything. Hampered by the red tape preventing him from saving an innocent life, Kane left the FBI and started his own private contracting company. Kane was called in to rescue people all over the world when the government couldn’t or wouldn’t get involved. Now headquartered in the small town of Shadows Landing, Kane was called in to rescue a woman. Little did he know, this case would once again change everything. Waverly Davenport was a Chief Science Officer in Charleston, South Carolina. She’d developed a new technology that would disrupt the criminal world. Waverly decided to take a well-earned vacation before starting the long process of patenting and selling her technology. The last thing Waverly expected at the five-star resort was to be kidnapped and held for ransom while out on an excursion or to fall for the man sent to rescue her. Kane thought the case would be over once he rescued Waverly. Now, they were on the run, trying to make it back to South Carolina as the kidnappers pursued them. As Kane and Waverly’s hearts become involved, so does the mystery of who is after Waverly and...

Practicing Intertextuality

Practicing Intertextuality

Autor: Max J. Lee , B. J. Oropeza

Número de Páginas: 377

Practicing Intertextuality attempts something bold and ambitious: to map both the interactions and intertextual techniques used by New Testament authors as they engaged the Old Testament and the discourses of their fellow Jewish and Greco-Roman contemporaries. This collection of essays functions collectively as a handbook describing the relationship between ancient authors, their texts, and audience capacity to detect allusions and echoes. Aimed for biblical studies majors, graduate and seminary students, and academics, the book catalogues how New Testament authors used the very process of interacting with their Scriptures (that is, the Masoretic Text, the Septuagint, and their variants) and the texts of their immediate environment (including popular literary works, treatises, rhetorical handbooks, papyri, inscriptions, artifacts, and graffiti) for the very production of their message. Each chapter demonstrates a type of interaction (that is, doctrinal reformulations, common ancient ethical and religious usage, refutation, irenic appropriation, and competitive appropriation), describes the intertextual technique(s) employed by the ancient author, and explains how these were...

I Alone Am Left

I Alone Am Left

Autor: Jeremy D. Otten

Número de Páginas: 166

In examining Luke's multiple appeals to the figure of Elijah, this study not only provides clarity to a fascinating but often misunderstood element of the Lukan narrative, but also provides a helpful model for understanding an even more perplexing question in Lukan studies, namely, the presentation of the nation of Israel. No New Testament author takes more interest in Elijah than Luke, who may allude to the Elijah-Elisha narratives as many as forty times. This study pushes past questions of typology and one-to-one correlation that have stalled scholarly discussion on the topic, examining the theological significance of Elijah in Luke-Acts as a literary motif. It is argued that, in drawing on a common association between Elijah and the Old Testament concept of remnant, Luke appeals to Elijah at key moments in the narrative in order to signal the development of his remnant theology. For Luke, as in the days of the prophets, the concept of remnant holds in tension God's irrevocable promises to Israel with the widespread rejection of God's new work of salvation; the faithfulness of a few with a hope for the nation as a whole; and the particular election of Israel with the message of...

The Hermeneutics of Social Identity in Luke-Acts

The Hermeneutics of Social Identity in Luke-Acts

Autor: Nickolas A. Fox

Número de Páginas: 311

Luke-Acts presents a vision of the kingdom of God and the early church in a program of decentralization, that is, a movement away from the centralized power structures of Judaism. Decentralization of the temple, land, purity laws, and even the people that seem to possess the power early in Acts (i.e., Peter and the other apostles) makes room for a move of radical inclusion. Luke demonstrates the Holy Spirit as the prime initiator of outward expansion of the kingdom of God, radically including and welcoming God-fearers, gentiles, an Ethiopian eunuch, and more. Fox argues that Luke-Acts is purposed to create social identity in God-fearing readers using the rhetorical tools of the first century to communicate prescribed beliefs and norms, promise and fulfillment, and prototypes and exemplars. Each of these elements is examined and traced through Luke’s two-volume work.

Let Justice Flow Like Water

Let Justice Flow Like Water

Autor: Joshua M. Greever , D. A. Horton , Justin Mclendon

Número de Páginas: 238

Edited by Joshua M. Greever, D. A. Horton, and Justin McLendon, Let Justice Flow Like Water addresses the strained relationship between social justice, the gospel, and the mission of the church. In response to the misuse of Scripture to promote personal ends, the volume reorients the conversation around justice and centers it in the biblical text and its theological implications. The authors provide practical wisdom and points of application to pastors, ministry leaders, and students. The authors examine the most-frequently cited texts on biblical justice through a coherent biblical and systematic-theological method. The result is a glimpse into God’s heart for justice and his desire for humanity—especially the church—to share this heart. The volume’s theology is supplemented by practical guidance to pastors so that they can lead their churches to embrace the gospel and social justice, properly understood. Let Justice Flow Like Water serves as an irenic reminder to pastors, students, and educated lay people to return to the biblical text to understand it more accurately, and to reengage and understand one another in a winsome fashion for the sake of the gospel, the mission ...

El exilio

El exilio

Autor: Amaparo Novoa Palacios

Número de Páginas: 474

Este libro contribuye a bosquejar una antropología teológica contemporánea a partir del aporte filosófico existencial de María Zambrano, en quien se inspira la autora para plantear algunos elementos clave que posibiliten una lectura renovada de la antropología teológica. Para ello, se vale de cuatro categorías: exilio, vocación, transparencia y verdad, a partir de las cuales va tejiendo los diversos argumentos que encuentran su nicho en la antropología filosófica zambraniana y en su método razón poética, para llegar a construir una antropología teológica que asuma la condición humana en su riqueza e indigencia, favoreciendo así una comprensión que conduzca a liberar la vida de cualquier reduccionismo. La vocación a la transparencia y a la verdad definen el exilio como un camino progresivo que muestra la condición misma del ser humano: "Yo soy exilio".

From Land to Lands, from Eden to the Renewed Earth

From Land to Lands, from Eden to the Renewed Earth

Autor: Munther Isaac

Número de Páginas: 427

The land is an important theme in the Bible. It is a theme through which the whole biblical history found in the Old and New Testaments can be studied and analyzed. Looking at the land in the Bible from its beginnings in the garden of Eden this publication approaches the theme from three distinct perspectives – holiness, the convenant, and the kingdom. Through careful analysis the author recognises that the land has been universalized in Christ, as anticipated in the Old Testament, and as a result promotes a missional theology of the land that underlines the social and territorial dimensions of redemption.

Preaching Christ from Leviticus

Preaching Christ from Leviticus

Autor: Sidney Greidanus

Número de Páginas: 441

For pastors who take seriously the commitment to incorporate the entire Bible into their preaching, Sidney Greidanus’s books on preaching Christ from the major genres of the Old Testament have been a welcome gift. In his last such volume, Greidanus engages with the Old Testament genre of law and treats a book that is often seen as the most challenging of all: Leviticus. Preaching Christ from Leviticus reminds pastors and congregations that key christological themes—priesthood, sacrifice, atonement, holiness—first originated in Leviticus before they came to full flower in the New Testament with the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ and his call to holiness. Greidanus provides the basis for fully understanding these and other themes with an exacting analysis of Leviticus and then provides the foundations for ten sermons on Leviticus through topics such as the burnt offering, the ordained priesthood, the day of atonement, the sabbatical year, and the year of jubilee, as well as the commandments to be holy, to love your neighbor, and to love aliens and enemies.

The Longest Night

The Longest Night

Autor: Otto De Kat

Número de Páginas: 191

A masterpiece of literary craft and concision; sparse, beautiful and hugely affecting - Daily Mail Since the liberation of the Netherlands, Emma Verweij has been living in Rotterdam, in a street which became a stronghold of friendships for its inhabitants during the Second World War. She marries Bruno, they have two sons, and she determines to block out the years she spent in Nazi Berlin during the war, with her first husband Carl. But now, ninety-six years old and on the eve of her death, long- forgotten memories crowd again into her consciousness, flashbacks of happier years, and the tragedy of the war, of Carl, of her father, and of the friends she has lost. In The Longest Night, his impressive, reflective new novel after News from Berlin, Otto de Kat deftly distils momentous events of 20th-century history into the lives of his characters. In Emma, the past and the present coincide in limpid fragments of rare, melancholy beauty. Translated from the Dutch by Laura Watkinson

Rethinking the Acceptable Year

Rethinking the Acceptable Year

Autor: Christopher James Luthy

Número de Páginas: 273

The biblical Jubilee has enjoyed increasing prominence in Lukan and missional literature, much of which has been based on suggested Jubilee allusions throughout Luke-Acts (especially Luke 4:16–30). This study questions the presence of such allusions, arguing that the suggested references are better understood within the broader and more explicit tradition of the Basileia of God. Every suggested Lukan textual and thematic reference to the Jubilee is examined, with particular attention given to the Nazareth episode (Luke 4:16–30), which is often cited as the most explicit Jubilee reference. The study also addresses some fundamental issues which have informed recent exegeses, including Luke’s use of the term ἄφεσις, the theme of the Basileia of God throughout Luke-Acts, and the importance of Isaiah 61 (both the first-century traditions that may have influenced Luke, as well as how Luke employed the text throughout his two-part work).
