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 Fully Human- Fully Divine by : John Martin Sahajananda
Download or read book Fully Human- Fully Divine written by John Martin Sahajananda and published by PartridgeIndia. This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fully Human-Fully Divine: Integral Dynamic Monotheism, a Meeting Point between the Vedic Vision and the Vision of Christ is the latest book of John Martin Sahajananda. This books deals with finding the answer to the fundamental question: Who are human beings? He looks for the answer to this basic question in two categories of spiritual traditions, viz., prophetic tradition and wisdom tradition. The wisdom tradition seems to focus on our oneness with God and the prophetic tradition on our humanness. He proposes a view that integrates these two views in an inclusive way. We are fully human and also fully divine. He looks at spiritual life as a dynamic process of evolution in relationship with God. This process he describes as Integral Dynamic Monotheism. In the second part of the book, he explains to us about similarities between the spiritual awakening and spiritual evolution in the Vedic tradition and the biblical tradition. He shows how close these great traditions can come, and when they come close together, they realize what they need from one another to make them richer and fuller. Thus he says that the challenge of Upanishadic tradition to Christianity is to open the nondualistic experience of Jesus, which is the radical love of God for all the Christians. In the same way, the challenge of Christ to the Vedic tradition is to translate its nondualistic wisdom of God, which is the radical love of God, into nondualistic action and social transformation that is the radical love of one's neighbor.

Book Synopsis Flesh-and-Blood Jesus, Second Edition by : L. Daniel Russ
Download or read book Flesh-and-Blood Jesus, Second Edition written by L. Daniel Russ and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-02-28 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians are prone to so focus on the realities of Jesus' divinity that we minimize or ignore the realities of his humanity. That he called himself the Son of Man more than any other title emphasizes that Jesus lived humanly in our fallen world, facing our temptations and living out the tensions of being human in the flow of life. He was just like us, human in a sinful world, yet he did not sin. So what can we learn from Jesus' glorious life about the meaning of our own humanity, about the tensions of being human in a sinful world and the difference between being a sinner and being a finite, flesh-and-blood human being? With this book as a helpful and trustworthy guide, you will begin to see how we can learn from Jesus how to: - live gracefully in our bodies, even our wounded and dying bodies - live with integrity as finite human beings who are created to enjoy limits - love our family, friends, neighbors, strangers, and enemies - enjoy being alone without being lonely - enjoy the good things of life - wear our scars with hope and dignity - learn to die As Dr. Russ shows, it is by truly encountering, understanding, and learning from Jesus' humanity that we can become more fully and truly human.

It is an excellent source for individuals, small groups and entire congregations to study and apply in order to bridge the gap between numerical growth and spiritual immaturity among many members. It goes beyond most books on spiritual formation by beginning with the nature of the Triune God, who has always existed in community, moves to the nature of humanity created in His image and likeness, and how individuals can mature to functionally relate as God does. Three appendixes include relevant pondering questions for each chapter, an eleven-week program for spiritual formation, and a comprehensive assessment tool for measuring progress. It is biblical, practical, understandable, and usable.
Book Synopsis A Real Human Life by : Michael J. Wolfe
Download or read book A Real Human Life written by Michael J. Wolfe and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book God gave Mike to write is so practical. The section on the sin nature is probably the most important section of the book, helping explain the struggle with why we still sin. Mike has put into words what I have never heard articulated. -Linda Sarver Milken National Educator 2003, contributor to teacher’s edition of America, the Last Best Hope by Bill Bennett, and follower of Jesus for 61 years If you are struggling with finding how to live the Christian life and long to discover the secret of the victorious life, this is the book you need to read. -Graham Stamford, Bible Teacher and Evangelist. Field Representative of Torchbearers and founder of SportsReach A Real Human Life reminds readers that the Lord Jesus lived a fully human life the way God intended, and He is the only one who can live His life in us. So each of us can live a real human life, too, if it is Christ living His life in us. Many Christians/churchgoers live in frustration and disappointment not seeing Bible-sized things in their lives, but they know God promises those things. This book, written from a pastor’s perspective, is a “blue collar” offering to help regular people deal with that frustration and disappointment. A Real Human Life relies on the Scripture to lay out a logical and biblical case for the reality of Christ in you, the hope of glory, and the subsequent human life He produces.

Download or read book About You written by Dick Staub and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-06-24 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In About You, Dick Staub addresses irreligious, religious, spiritual seekers and all kinds of Christians and shows us that Jesus came to satisfy our universal longing for a fully human life, not to establish a narrow us versus them religion. In short, Jesus didn't come to make us Christian; Jesus came to make us fully human. In a fresh exploration of the ancient Biblical stories of creation, fall and redemption, Staub explains that salvation is not about going to heaven when we die; it is about a full and abundant life now. In practical, down-to-earth, language, About You deals with this concept on three levels: anthropologically (our common story and universal human needs), theologically (God’s awareness and response to our needs), and practically (how we can attain and maintain a more complete and satisfying life). Staub's previous book (The Culturally Savvy Christian) was selected by Kirkus Reviews for their 2007 Religion and Spirituality edition. This new book is designed to help those who are seeking a way to integrate both a fully alive spirituality and a fully alive humanity—a way that is embodied in the often-misunderstood life and teaching of Jesus Christ. This groundbreaking book illuminates the path towards becoming the best version of yourself.
Download or read book Fully Alive written by Jason A. Fout and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerous contemporary theologians depict divine glory as overwhelming to or competitive with human agency. In effect, this makes humanity a threat to God's glory, and causes God's glory to remain opaque to human enquiry and foreign to human life. Karl Barth and Hans Urs von Balthasar have avoided this tendency, instead depicting God's glory as enabling people to participate in glorifying God. Nevertheless both accounts fall short of their initial promise by giving one-dimensional accounts of human obedience to God within largely conventional divine command accounts of ethics. The form of human obedience they present as compatible with divine glory does not actively overwhelm the human, but rather brackets out her agency as inappropriate in the face of divine revelation or command. And so, ironically, on these accounts God's glory remains opaque to human enquiry and foreign to human life. This study builds a case for seeing divine glory as intrinsically relational, creating a sociality which allows for a human agency transfigured by God's glory. Moving beyond Barth and von Balthasar, this work turns to theological exegesis of Scripture to construct an alternative account of divine glory. This glory is worked out in the act of glorifying: first in God, then in divine glorifying of humans, creating a responsive human glorifying of God; and finally in processes of honouring or glorifying among humans. Divine glory is shown to be consistent with a responsive and creative human obedience to God, and shown to constitute human agency which is creaturely and dependent yet not overwhelmed.
Book Synopsis The Historical Christ and the Jesus of Faith by : C. Stephen Evans
Download or read book The Historical Christ and the Jesus of Faith written by C. Stephen Evans and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Testament contains a story about Jesus of Nazareth which has always been understood by the Church to be historically true. It is an account of the life, death, and resurrection of a real person, whose links with history are firmly signalled in the creeds of the early church. Contemporary historical scholarship, on the other hand, has called into question the reliability of the church's version of this story, and thereby raised the question as to whether ordinary people can know its historical truth. In this book, a leading philosopher of religion argues that the historicity of the story still matters, and that its religious significance cannot be captured by the category of "non-historical myth." The commonly drawn distinction between the Christ of faith and the Jesus of history cannot be maintained. The Christ who is the object of faith must be seen as historical; the Jesus who is reconstructed by historical scholarship is always shaped by commitments to faith. Evans looks carefully at contemporary New Testament studies, and the philosophical and literary assumptions upon which it rests, to show that this scholarship does not undermine the confidence of lay people who believe that they can know that the church's story about Jesus is true. His accessible and controversial study will interest all thoughtful Christian readers. -- Publisher description.
Book Synopsis God, Christ and Us by : Herbert McCabe
Download or read book God, Christ and Us written by Herbert McCabe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2005-01-11 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a collection of Herbert McCabe's more popular spiritual writings. McCabe was highly regarded as a writer on philosophy and theology but in true Dominican tradition (the Order of Preachers) he was also a brilliant preacher. He always preached in a lively and witty way - his style has been compared to that of G.K. Chesterton. This collection of his sermons and spiritual addresses are never platitudinous or short of ideas, filled with questions, arguments and solid intellectual content. The major influence on McCabe was the Bible but he was also a devoted admirer of the thought of St Thomas Aquinas, whose ideas saturated his public speaking. From the Bible, McCabe derived the notion of God leading us to happiness through the work of grace and through the life and teachings of Jesus. From Aquinas, McCabe derived a hatred of idolatry, a powerful sense of the incomprehensibility of God and a recognition that we depend on God's gracious revelation of himself rather that what we can work out on the basis of our limited understanding. A presiding theme in this book is that we are saved because of the life of someone fully human. God, Christ and Us communicates the essence of the Gospel in an original and compelling way. It can therefore be mentioned in the same breath as works by Dean Inge, Donald Soper, H.A. Williams and Leslie Weatherhead.
Book Synopsis The Impeccability of Christ by : Edward Kanniah
Download or read book The Impeccability of Christ written by Edward Kanniah and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-09-30 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following study seeks to investigate the impeccability of Christ from a historical/theological position. Two camps emerge on either side of the debate: Those who hold to the posse non peccare view, which is to say, ability not to sin, otherwise known as the peccability view and those who hold to the non posse peccare view, which is to say inability to sin, otherwise known as the impeccability view. While both camps affirm the sinless perfection of Christ, they oppose each other in whether as fully human He could have sinned if He wanted to. It boils down to a case of ‘could have but did not’ or ‘did not because He could not have’. It is the view of this thesis that the non posse peccare view squares with both historical and biblical theology.
