Book Synopsis A Profile of Jewish Believers in the UK Church by : Jonathan Allen
Download or read book A Profile of Jewish Believers in the UK Church written by Jonathan Allen and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-03-02 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given that mission agencies have been reporting for the last two hundred years or more the number of Jewish people coming to faith in Christ, this book asks the question: where are they and their descendants now? Using a multidisciplinary approach, covering social identity theory, social memory theory, and translation theory, this book constructs a profile of Jewish believers in the UK church based upon interviews carried out with church members and leaders who are Jewish or have experience working with Jewish believers. After examining both theory and data, the conclusion is that church is a hostile environment for Jewish identity. Unlike Chinese, Ghanaian, and Korean churches whose members are encouraged to retain their traditions as diaspora communities reaching out to their own people, the church has a strongly assimilationist policy toward Jewish believers, who are encouraged--even pressured--to forget their Jewish traditions, customs, and practices in favor of blending into Gentile church and disappearing. Jewish believers are at best an oxymoron; at worst, an anathema, not to be trusted or tolerated unless--as in the days of the early church from the third century onwards--they renounce their previous lives, families, and communities.

Book Synopsis Feeling Persecuted by : Anthony Bale
Download or read book Feeling Persecuted written by Anthony Bale and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Feeling Persecuted, Anthony Bale explores the medieval Christian attitude toward Jews, which included a pervasive fear of persecution and an imagined fear of violence enacted against Christians. As a result, Christians retaliated with expulsions, riots, and murders that systematically denied Jews the right to religious freedom and peace. Through close readings of a wide range of sources, Bale exposes the perceived violence enacted by the Jews and how the images of this Christian suffering and persecution were central to medieval ideas of love, community, and home. The images and texts explored by Bale expose a surprising practice of recreational persecution and show that the violence perpetrated against medieval Jews was far from simple anti-Semitism and was in fact a complex part of medieval life and culture. Bale’s comprehensive look at medieval poetry, drama, visual culture, theology, and philosophy makes Feeling Persecuted an important read for anyone interested in the history of Christian-Jewish relations and the impact of this history on modern culture.

Book Synopsis The Anglican Church, Jews and British Multiculturalism by : Margaret F. Brearley
Download or read book The Anglican Church, Jews and British Multiculturalism written by Margaret F. Brearley and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Present-day British multiculturalism stimulates ethnic and religious separatism and has proved to be a cover for the rise of radical Islam. The latter is now the main source of antisemitism in Britain. Discusses the politics of the Anglican Church, which at this time is advancing its dialogue with Islam to the detriment of its dialogue with Judaism. In the Anglican Church's discourse (in both British and Middle-Eastern chapters) anti-Judaic conceptions like replacement theology have reappeared, and the Church's anti-Zionism borders on antisemitism and justification of terrorism. Increasingly radical Islamists in Britain regard the Anglo-Jewish community as a legitimate and necessary target of violence in their war against the State of Israel.
Book Synopsis Postmissionary Messianic Judaism by : Mark S. Kinzer
Download or read book Postmissionary Messianic Judaism written by Mark S. Kinzer and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2005-11-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, a new form of Messianic Judaism has emerged that has the potential to serve as a bridge between Jews and Christians. Giving voice to this movement, Mark Kinzer makes a case for nonsupersessionist Christianity. He argues that the election of Israel is irrevocable, that Messianic Jews should honor the covenantal obligations of Israel, and that rabbinic Judaism should be viewed as a movement employed by God to preserve the distinctive calling of the Jewish people. Though this book will be of interest to Jewish readers, it is written primarily for Christians who recognize the need for a constructive relationship to the Jewish people that neither denies the role of Jesus the Messiah nor diminishes the importance of God's covenant with the Jews.

Book Synopsis Perspectives on Israel and the Church by : Chad Brand
Download or read book Perspectives on Israel and the Church written by Chad Brand and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2015-03-01 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between Israel and the church is one of the most debated issues in the history of theology. Some hold the view that there is almost seamless continuity between Israel and the church, while others believe there is very little continuity. Additional perspectives lie between these two. This debate has contributed to the formation of denominations and produced a variety of political views about the state of Israel. To advance the conversation, Perspectives on Israel and the Church brings together respected theologians representing four positions: Traditional covenantal view by Robert L. Reymond Traditional dispensational view by Robert L. Thomas Progressive dispensational view by Robert L. Saucy Progressive covenantal view by Chad Brand and Tom Pratt Jr.
Book Synopsis Christians and Jews in the Twelfth-Century Renaissance by : Dr Anna Brechta Sapir Abulafia
Download or read book Christians and Jews in the Twelfth-Century Renaissance written by Dr Anna Brechta Sapir Abulafia and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twelfth century was a period of rapid change in Europe. The intellectual landscape was being transformed by new access to classical works through non-Christian sources. The Christian church was consequently trying to strengthen its control over the priesthood and laity and within the church a dramatic spiritual renewal was taking place. Christians and Jews in the Twelfth-Century Renaissance reveals the consequences for the only remaining non-Christian minority in the heartland of Europe: the Jews. Anna Abulafia probes the anti-Jewish polemics of scholars who used the new ideas to redefine the position of the Jews within Christian society. They argued that the Jews had a different capacity for reason since they had not reached the 'right' conclusion - Christianity. They formulated a universal construct of humanity which coincided with universal Christendom, from which the Jews were excluded. Dr Abulafia shows how the Jews' exclusion from this view of society contributed to their growing marginalization from the twelfth century onwards. Christians and Jews in the Twelfth-Century Renaissance is important reading for all students and teachers of medieval history and theology, and for all those with an interest in Jewish history.

Book Synopsis The Origins of Christian Zionism by : Donald M. Lewis
Download or read book The Origins of Christian Zionism written by Donald M. Lewis and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study of Lord Shaftesbury - Victorian England's greatest humanitarian and most prominent Christian Zionist - Donald M. Lewis examines why British evangelicals became fascinated with the Jews and how they promoted a 'teaching of esteem" that countered a "teaching of contempt." Evangelicals militated for the restoration of Jews to Palestine by lobbying the British cabinet on foreign policy decisions. Professing their love for the Jews, they effectively reshaped the image of the Jew in conversionist literature, gave sacrificially to convert them to Christianity, and worked with German Pietists to create a joint Anglican-Lutheran bishopric in Jerusalem, the center (in their minds) of world Jewry. Evangelical identity evolved during this process and had an impact on Jewish identity, transforming Jewish-Christian relations. It also changed the course of world history by creating a climate of opinion in the United Kingdom in favor of the Balfour Declaration of 1917, which pledged British support for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. The movement also bequeathed a fascination with Christian Zionism to American evangelicals that still influences global politics.
