Book Synopsis The Ritual World of Paul the Apostle by : Michael Lakey
Download or read book The Ritual World of Paul the Apostle written by Michael Lakey and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-27 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Lakey explores the theological significance of the rituals of Baptism and the Lord's Supper in Pauline theology, with the argument culminating in an analysis of the significance of ritual dining in 1 Corinthians 10:14-22 and the Lord's Supper in 1 Corinthians 11:17-34. By contrast with 'social world' forms of comparison between rituals in the Pauline communities and other communities in antiquity, this study focuses primarily upon the theologically integrating function these rituals perform in relation to Paul's theology and ethics. Lakey builds upon Clifford Geertz's systemic understanding of religion by showing how, for Paul, Baptism and the Lord's Supper facilitate specific connections between his metaphysics on the one hand, and the form or pattern of life he enjoins upon his churches on the other. This volume considers precisely what - given his theological and ethical premises - Paul's underlying beliefs regarding these ritual events may have been, allowing for a preliminary discussion of specific lines of post-interpretation in the early patristic period.
Book Synopsis Paul, the Law, and the Covenant by : A. Andrew Das
Download or read book Paul, the Law, and the Covenant written by A. Andrew Das and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The now familiar new perspective asserts that the covenantal nomism characteristic of second-temple Judaism softened the Mosaic law s requirement of perfect obedience. Because of God s gracious covenant with Israel, manifested in election and the provision of atoning sacrifices, one could be righteous under the law despite occasional failures to obey the law perfectly. This view concludes that Paul, as a first-century Jew, could not have been troubled by the law s stringent demands, because it was generally understood that the gracious framework of the covenant provided a way of dealing with occasional lapses. Consequently, it is claimed, Paul s problem with the law must have to do with its misuse as a means of enforcing ethnic boundaries and excluding Gentile believers. However, as Das demonstrates in this book, whenever the gracious framework of covenantal nomism is called into question, the law s demands take on central importance. Das traces this development in a number of second-temple Jewish works and especially in the writings of Paul. Covenantal nomism is probably an apt characterization of Paul s opponents, and indeed of Paul s past life; thus he can assert that formerly he was blameless under the law. But now Paul sees God s grace as active only in Christ. He emphatically denies that God will show special grace in his judgment of Jews; to do so would be favoritism. Similarly, Paul sees no atoning benefit to the sacrificial system. In effect, Paul is no longer a covenantal nomist. Since the gracious framework of the covenant has collapsed, all that remains for Paul is the law, with its oppressive requirement of perfect obedience and ethnic exclusivism. Contra the "newperspective," the "works of the law" should not be construed so narrowly as only the law's ethnic exclusivity. Christ is "the end" of the law in general, both in the sense that he is the goal to which the law always pointed, and in that he is the sole agent of God's grace apart from which the law's demands would be impossible.

Book excerpt: The influence of the apostle Paul in early Christianity goes far beyond the reach of the seven genuine letters he wrote to early assemblies; Paul was reveredand fiercely opposedin an even larger number of letters penned in his name, and in narratives told about him and against him, that were included in our New Testament and, far more often, treasured and circulated outside it. Richard Pervo provides an illuminating and comprehensive survey of the legacy of Paul and the various ways he was remembered, honored, and vilified in the early churches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul was a self-appointed apostle, who wasn't qualified to be an apostle, lied as an apostle and not accepted as an apostle by Jesus Christ. Even his own conversion testimony in the book of Acts is contradicting each other. Here, we will explore Paul's deceptions and how they contradict with teachings of Jesus Christ. You will also be able to do a complete verse by verse study of Paul's deceptive letter to Galatians and twisting of Scriptures in his letter to the Romans.
Book Synopsis The Ministry of Paul the Apostle by : G. Roger Greene
Download or read book The Ministry of Paul the Apostle written by G. Roger Greene and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone knows the supposed life story of Paul the apostle, but then again they may not. As it is generally drawn from the book of Acts, Paul had a dramatic conversion on the “road to Damascus,” undertook “three missionary journeys,” and returned a final time to Jerusalem. He was arrested for creating a riot, held prisoner in Caesarea, and upon his appeal to Caesar was finally transported to Rome as a prisoner. Dotted, dashed, or colored lines on countless numbers of maps document Paul’s “three missionary journeys” and his journey to Rome, as these are commonly discerned in the book of Acts. Paul’s letters and the book of Acts itself, however, may tell a different story than the one customarily perceived—perhaps a less familiar story, but perhaps a more factual one. The Ministry of Paul the Apostle represents a significant paradigm shift for understanding Paul’s ministry which involves two major campaigns, an ordered awareness of Paul’s ministry as far as Illyricum, a revision of Paul’s Corinthian ministry, an historical confirmation of visits to Jerusalem, an appropriate ordering and reaffirmation of Paul’s letters, including Romans 16 as a letter to Ephesus. In addition, the current study offers a new paradigm for correlation between our sources of Paul’s letters and the book of Acts, with the development of an underlying source tradition behind Acts. The reader is thus invited to participate in a significant re-evaluation of Paul’s ministry and a proposed solution to a long-standing mystery of correlation between Paul’s letters and Acts. When one travels with Paul, one engages in a voyage of discovery. This book makes sense of the mystery of Paul’s ministry, which when properly understood, becomes an illuminating foundational window of clarity for sorting out a bewildering multitude of theological formulations of the enigmas of Paul’s thought. It is through a thorough awareness of the ministry of Paul that one comes to appreciate the contextual nature and depth of Paul’s theological thought. One comes to a new appreciation of Paul’s place in early Christianity, relevant even for those who live in a post-modern age.

Book Synopsis Faithful to Jesus Christianity by : Ruy Barraco Marmol
Download or read book Faithful to Jesus Christianity written by Ruy Barraco Marmol and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about Jesus, about the Apostle Paul, and about the book of Revelation. I always thought that to be faithful disciple of Jesus I had to believe that after Jesus Christ we did not have to wait for any other man, nor for any other name, in order to reach salvation; but I never applied this belief to Paul of Tarsus, commonly known as the Apostle Saint Paul. Despite my Catholic Education, several times, readings of passages of the Epistles of Paul had left me with serious doubts about them, especially those involving women, civil authority and submission to ecclesiastic authorities, among others, but the sound trust that I have been taught to have in the Bible, and that I still maintain, allowed me to live with those doubts until I studied the epistles. When I did it, the love for the truth and the faithfulness to Jesus Christ, that I also have been taught to have, left me with no other option but to admit that the Epistles of Paul have many errors, vices and even teachings directly opposed to Christ's teachings; and led me to realize that Paul was a false prophet responsible for the worst errors, and vices, that the Catholic Church and the Christian Church in general have committed and fallen into. Moreover, I realized that the defeat of the worst errors and vices that threaten our present and our future depends on our faithfulness to Jesus and to the word of Jesus, which we find in the Gospels, and on the recognition of the Apostle Paul as a false prophet. In addition, when I studied the book of Revelation, I found out that the Apostle Paul is clearly pointed out as the Second Beast of the book of Revelation. Furthermore, with this piece of the Puzzle I interpreted Chapter by Chapter the book, which reveals very important things concerning the plan of God regarding the Christian Church, the recognition of Paul as a false prophet, and about the times of the Second Coming of Jesus. If you want to better understand our past, our present and our near future, you should read this book. If you are a Christian who is in love with the Gospels, who loves Christ, who wants to love him even more, and who believes that nothing is more important than to be faithful to Jesus, this book is for you.
Book Synopsis The Ritual World of Paul the Apostle by : Michael J. Lakey
Download or read book The Ritual World of Paul the Apostle written by Michael J. Lakey and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lakey explores the theological significance of the rituals of Baptism and the Lord's Supper in Pauline theology, with particular attention focused on the discussion of the Lord's Supper in 1 Corinthians 11:17ff. When they occur, explorations of ritual in Paul tend to operate according to a 'social world' form of comparison with ritual in other communities in antiquity. By contrast, this study focuses primarily upon the function these rituals perform in relation to Paul's theology and ethics. The primary analytical lenses are taken from social scientific studies of ritual, and in particular from Clifford Geertz's analysis of symbols. Lakey builds upon Geertz's insight by showing how, for Paul, Baptism and the Lord's Supper facilitate specific connections between his metaphysics on the one hand, and the form or pattern of life he enjoins upon his churches on the other. The investigation considers what, given his theological and ethical premises, Paul's underlying beliefs regarding these ritual events may have been, thereby setting the scene for a preliminary discussion of specific lines of post-interpretation in the early patristic period."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
Book Synopsis The Teachings of Paul Based on the Cornerstone Teachings of Jesus Christ by : Repsaj Jasper
Download or read book The Teachings of Paul Based on the Cornerstone Teachings of Jesus Christ written by Repsaj Jasper and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Number 2 released by the scribe(discipled into the kingdom of the heaven) reveals the details of the major aspects of the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ as the CORNERSTONE teachings concerning the gospel of salvation and the kingdom of the God. However, most of the books written by so-called theologians, teachers of the Word and preachers on the gospel of salvation were/are based on the teachings of Paul, ignoring the CORNERSTONE teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Hence, the teachings of Paul concerning the gospel of salvation were/are interpreted NOT based on the CORNERSTONE teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. It has also been revealed by the scribe that many of Paul's teachings on the major aspects of the gospel of salvation had/have been falsely and incorrectly interpreted by so-called Christian authors, theologians, teachers of the Word and preachers for hundreds of years. These are revealed particularly in a) Book Number 7 - The gospel of salvation by Paul, b) Book Number 15 - What did Paul teach regarding the law of the God in relation to the gospel of salvation and c) Book Number 6 - Works or "Ergon" in relation to the gospel of salvation in the New Testament Scriptures. The consequences of the incorrect and false interpretation of Paul's teachings on the various aspects of the gospel of salvation had/have resulted in the establishment of many different Christian sects and denominations. The true gospel of salvation as preached by Paul had/has been so much altered that they attracted/attract a vast numbers of mankind on the earth, making false Christianity the largest religion in the world. This Book Number 8 reveals the true meaning of Paul's teaching on major topics concerning the gospel of salvation. This is done by the leading of the Holy Spirit using the CORNERSTONE teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ as the BASIS for interpretation of all scriptures especially those of the apostles and prophets - to reveal the truth in order that professing believers are able to live the remaining of their life-span to obey the true gospel of salvation that they may not be led astray to follow false gospel - the consequences of which are disastrous. The topics included in this Book concerning the teachings of Paul are: - 1) Everlasting life; 2) Righteous and Righteousness; 3) Kingdom of God; 4) Treasure; 5) Save/Saved; 6) Salvation; 7) Resurrection; 8) Raise/Raised; 9) Live(s); 10) Die/died; 11) Soul; 12) "Pneuma" - Spirit or Breath. The interpretation of each of the above major topics is always linked to the gospel of salvation and the basis of interpretation as led by the Spirit is to be in line with the CORNERSTONE teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. In this way Paul's teachings will be revealed to be in perfect harmony with the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ as supporting, supplementary and complementary to the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. After all Paul was/is a disciple and apostle of the Lord and whatever Paul taught came from the Lord could/can never be contradictory to the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Because Paul's teachings had/have been widely interpreted to represent the true gospel of salvation, it is of utmost importance to know and understand the true meaning of Paul's teachings on all aspects of the gospel of salvation, in order that professing believers are/will not be led astray. Professing believers who are led or who choose to read this Book Number 8 are also urged to read Book Numbers 6, 7 and 15 to have a clearer understanding of the teachings of Paul, the apostle who was appointed to preach the gospel of salvation to the gentiles. The goal of this Book Number 8 is therefore to correct any false and incorrect interpretation of Paul's teachings on some major topics concerning the gospel of salvation in order that believers may not be led astray.
