Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contemporary Theology and Theism Nearly three years ago the members of the Glasgow University Theological Society were kind enough to invite me to occupy the Honorary Presidency of their association. In this capacity it became my duty to deliver an Address on certain aspects of contemporary theological inquiry. Since that time I have been repeatedly requested to publish the lecture in accessible shape, and I have been told that portions of it, which appeared in The Thinker, were sought after by students in the United States and in Germany as well as in Scotland. To meet this request more adequately, the materials have been greatly extended; those who heard the Glasgow lecture will find that less than one-fourth of the present volume consists of the considerations I was permitted to place before them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place of Christ in Modern Theology Treatises in Systematic Theology are not so common as they once were, nor are they so easy either to write or to read. Criticism has become so much a mental habit and has changed so many things that we find it hard to be patient with any process that is not critical, or to agree with any principle or method that professes to be constructive. Construction, indeed, without criticism is sure to be invalid; but the criticism which does not either end in construction or make it more possible, is quite as surely without any scientific character or function. Hence, though modern criticism, philosophical, literary, and historical, has made systematic treatises of the old order impossible, it has only made a new endeavour at construction the more necessary. This book does not profess or claim to be a system of theology, but it is an attempt at formulating the fundamental or material conception of such a system; or, in other words, it is an endeavour through a Christian doctrine of God at a sketch of the first lines of a Christian Theology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Continuity of Christian, Thought: A Study of Modern, Theology in the Light, of Its History This treatise owes its shape to the circumstance of its having been written as a course of lectures which were delivered in Philadelphia on the foun dation of the late John Bohlen. The lectures be ing six in number required what may seem a some what artificial division of the subject-matter. But the grouping of topics, which I was in consequence constrained to make, will not, I think, be found an unnatural one. The lectures have been as carefully revised as my engagements would allow; they are published substantially as they were spoken, with the exception of several portions omitted in the delivery for the sake of brevity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tendencies of Modern Theology The titles of the papers indicate a certain unity of subject. They indicate also that the questions dis cussed are living questions to-day and fundamental to Christian faith. The writer is not so presumptuous as to suppose that he has solved the high problems under discussion. To make some contribution to the solution is the utmost he can hope to do. A few repetitions occur in one or two of the papers; but as they are found in connection with new points of view, he did not think it well to withhold the papers on that account. The criticism is directed against theories. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis God of Our Fathers by : W. Bradford Littlejohn
Download or read book God of Our Fathers written by W. Bradford Littlejohn and published by . This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protestantism today has an idolatry problem. Not merely in the sense of worshipping false gods-of pleasure, wealth, or politics-but in the sense of worshipping the Triune God of Scripture according to images and ideas of our own devising. Whether it's a God who suffers and changes alongside his creatures, or a "Trinitarian circle dance" of divine personalities, or a hierarchically-arranged Trinity that serves as a blueprint for gender relations, modern evangelical theology has strayed far from historic Christian orthodoxy. Needing a God that can be put on a greeting card or in a praise song, our idolatrous hearts shrink the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob down to size, and make him more like us. Amidst this scramble to make God more relevant, we seem to have forgotten that the only God truly capable of saving us is a God who is radically other and transcendent, far above our imaginings. This incomprehensible God is not the God of the philosophers, as modern revisionists frequently charge, but the God of the Bible. The essays in this volume, written by scholars and pastors deeply concerned for the life of the church, seek to retrieve and defend the tradition of classical theism as the historic Protestant faith, rooted in Scripture, philosophically coherent, and still relevant to the needs of the church today.
Book Synopsis Religion, Theory, Critique by : Richard King
Download or read book Religion, Theory, Critique written by Richard King and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-07-18 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion, Theory, Critique is an essential tool for learning about theory and method in the study of religion. Leading experts engage with contemporary and classical theories as well as non-Western cultural contexts. Unlike other collections, this anthology emphasizes the dynamic relationship between "religion" as an object of study and different methodological approaches and openly addresses the question of the manifold ways in which "religion," "secular," and "culture" are imagined within different disciplinary horizons. This volume is the first textbook which seeks to engage discussion of classical approaches with contemporary cultural and critical theories. Contributors write on the influence of the natural sciences in the study of religion; the role of European Christianity in modeling theories of religion; religious experience and the interface with cognitive science; the structure and function of religious language; the social-scientific study of religion; ritual in religion; the phenomenology of religion; critical theory and religion; embodiment and religion; the impact of colonialism and modernity; theorizing religion in terms of race and ethnicity; links among religion, nationalism, and globalization; the interplay of gender, sex, and religion; and religion and the environment. Each chapter introduces the topic, identifies key theorists and issues, and respects the pluralistic nature of the scholarship in the field. Altogether, this collection scrutinizes the explicit and implicit assumptions theorists make about religion as an object of analysis.

Book Synopsis All That Is in God by : James E. Dolezal
Download or read book All That Is in God written by James E. Dolezal and published by Reformation Heritage Books. This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unknown to many, increasing numbers of conservative evangelicals are denying basic tenets of classical Christian teaching about God, with departures occurring even among those of the Calvinistic persuasion. James E. Dolezal’s All That Is in God provides an exposition of the historic Christian position while engaging with these contemporary deviations. His convincing critique of the newer position he styles “theistic mutualism” is philosophically robust, systematically nuanced, and biblically based. It demonstrates the need to maintain the traditional viewpoint, particularly on divine simplicity, and spotlights the unfortunate implications for other important Christian doctrines—such as divine eternality and the Trinity—if it were to be abandoned. Arguing carefully and cogently that “all that is in God is God Himself,” the work is sure to stimulate debate on the issue in years to come.
Book Synopsis Christianity and Evolution by : George Matheson

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christianity and Evolution: Modern Problems of the Faith Christian Faith. Although, therefore, a general agreement will be found to exist throughout the series, one or two of the writers have made no secret of their holding a much more limited view of the scope and character of Evolution than that represented by the rest. Should exception be taken to this circumstance, we would respectfully submit, that in the settlement of great vital questions it must tend in a much higher degree to healthy, thorough, and impartial discussion when debaters are left perfectly free in every thing save the essentials of the point at issue. In the hope that the following pages may be found helpful by many whose spirits are shadowed by the scepticism of the age, we now commit them.

By a deed of trust, executed June 2, 1875, the trustees, under the will of Mr. Bohlen, transferred and paid over to "The Rector, Church Wardens, and Vestrymen of the Church of the Holy Trinity, Philadelphia," in trust, a sum of money for certain designated purposes, out of which fund the sum of Ten Thousand Dollars was set apart for the endowment of The John Bohlen Lectureship, upon the following terms and conditions: - "The money shall be invested in good, substantial, and safe securities, and held in trust for a fund to be called The John Bohlen Lectureship; and the income shall be applied annually to the payment of a qualified person, whether clergyman or layman, for the delivery and publication of at least one hundred copies of two or more lecture sermons. These lectures shall be delivered at such time and place, in the city of Philadelphia, as the persons nominated to appoint the lecturer shall from time to time determine, giving at least six months notice to the person appointed to deliver the same, when the same may conveniently be done, and in no case selecting the same person as lecturer a second time within a period of five years. The payment shall be made to said lecturer, after the lectures have been printed, and received by the trustees, of all the income for the year derived from said fund, after defraying the expense of printing the lectures, and the other incidental expenses attending the same. "The subject of such lectures shall be such as is within the terms set forth in the will of the Rev. John Bampton, for the delivery of what are known as the 'Bampton Lectures,' at Oxford, or any other subject distinctively connected with or relating to the Christian Religion. "The lecturer shall be appointed annually in the month of May, or as soon thereafter as can conveniently be done, by the persons who for the time being shall hold the offices of Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the Diocese in which is the Church of the Holy Trinity; the Rector of said Church; the Professor of Biblical Learning, the Professor of Systematic Divinity, and the Professor of Ecclesiastical History, in the Divinity School of the Protestant Episcopal Church in Philadelphia. "In case either of said offices are vacant, the others may nominate the lecturer." Under this trust the Reverend A. V. G. Allen, D. D., Professor in the Episcopal Theological School in Cambridge, was appointed to deliver the lectures for the year 1883.

This question the book which follows attempts to answer. While I have everywhere studied brevity, I have tried not to carry con densation so far as to interfere with clearness. The spirit in which I have sought to write is suggested by the opening quotation from William Ames, a theologian who, in the clear ness of his insight that the final test of truth is practice, suggests the genial modern philosopher with whose name his own has so many letters in common.

This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of Modern Religious Ideas This volume is based upon the Earl L'ectures, given before the Pacific Theological Seminary, at Berkeley, California, in September, 1912. A number of years ago, in response to the request of Doctor James M. Whiton, I promised to write a book on the Antecedents of Modern Theology, as one of a series dealing with modern religious thought. Circumstances delayed its preparation, and, when the invitation was received to give the Earl Lectures, it seemed wise to take a kindred theme as the subject of the course. With the gracious approval, both of the seminary authorities and of the editor of the series, the present volume, which contains the sub stance of the lectures, but in a different form and considerably enlarged, appears as the first of the series on modern religious thought.
