The contributors to this volume work to overcome the tendency toward disciplinary xenophobia, considering such questions as What is the relation between faithful teaching about the reality of Christ and teaching faithfulness to the way of Christ? and How is christological doctrine related to theological judgments about normative human agency? With renewed attention and creative reformulation, they argue, we can discover fresh ways of tending to these perennial questions.

He then asks how this ethic manifests itself in the Church, and considers, finally, how Christian ethics might be coherent and persuasive in contemporary society.Throughout, Colwell uses contemporary dilemmas as illustrations, and interacts with the thought of Thomas Aquinas, Karl Barth, Stanley Hauerwas and Jonathan Edwards to further illuminate the discussion.
Book Synopsis Fully Human in Christ by : Todd H. Speidell
Download or read book Fully Human in Christ written by Todd H. Speidell and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-11-08 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas F. Torrance's theology included a thoroughgoing, albeit implicit, ethic of reconciliation. It focused on the personalizing and humanizing mediation of Christ in all realms of life--including not only a supposed private dimension of human life but also the social, historical, and political structures of human society and even of the cosmos itself. This book builds upon that vision of a Christian ethic radically rooted in God's grace, which encompasses, sustains, and transforms the entire human and created order. A trinitarian-incarnational social ethic does not begin with our human causes, projects, and agendas, however noble they might be, but with witness to the reconciling person and work of Jesus Christ for us.

Book Synopsis The Holy Spirit and Christian Ethics in the Theology of Klaus Bockmuehl by : Annette M Glaw
Download or read book The Holy Spirit and Christian Ethics in the Theology of Klaus Bockmuehl written by Annette M Glaw and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Precocious and sometimes marginalized Klaus Bockmuehl's insights regarding the Spirit's agency in Christian Ethics, and therefore in our daily Christian experiences, have renewed import, now. This is an exceptional book, it introduces us for the first time to a much-neglected thinker. It also equips us with an understanding of how the Church can live ethically in power, through its relationship with the Father. In both respects it has much to offer its reader and the wider contemporary church.

Book excerpt: Selected by Christianity Today as one of the 100 most important books on religion of the twentieth century. Leading theological ethicist Stanley Hauerwas shows how discussions of Christology and the authority of scripture involve questions about what kind of community the church must be to rightly tell the stories of God. He challenges the dominant assumption of contemporary Christian social ethics that there is a special relation between Christianity and some form of liberal democratic social system.
Book Synopsis Reading in the Presence of Christ: A Study of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Bibliology and Exegesis by : Joel Banman
Download or read book Reading in the Presence of Christ: A Study of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Bibliology and Exegesis written by Joel Banman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-02-11 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bonhoeffer's writings include a significant amount of biblical interpretation, but his potential contributions in the fields of biblical studies and theological exegesis of Scripture have not been sufficiently explored. This study reassesses some of his key exegetical writings in light of his theology of revelation and bibliology, unfolding the ways in which his reading of the Bible is determined by his theology of Scripture. Through this analysis, Joel Banman demonstrates that the uniting factor of Bonhoeffer's biblical interpretation is not methodological but bibliological: he reads Scripture as the living word of the present Christ.
Book Synopsis Christian Ethical Implications of the Presence of the Kingdom as God’s Performative Action in the Light of Speech Act Theory by : Anna Cho
Download or read book Christian Ethical Implications of the Presence of the Kingdom as God’s Performative Action in the Light of Speech Act Theory written by Anna Cho and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a novel Biblical ethical hermeneutic approach that emerges from an understanding of the presence of the kingdom of God in the Biblical text. The approach is predicated upon the use of speech act theory (abbreviated as SAT) in relation to `kingdom language' in the Biblical text. The approach shows how the notion of kingdom language, as God's divine activity, is elicited in the contemporary Christian's life by allowing it to operate beyond the world of the Biblical text. In other words, this approach establishes a Biblical-ethical hermeneutic bridge between the text (and its context) and the context of contemporary readers of the text. The alternative linguistic epistemology in SAT considers the principle of the kingdom of God in the past (locution level), the present (illocutionary level) and the future (perlocutionary level). The dynamic equivalences of the past, present and future of the kingdom of God based on an SAT approach to the Biblical text can inform Christian ethical theory and moral action in the present world. It can also provide a new moral sensibility in relation to God's sovereignty and the responsibility of Christians in contemporary society.
