Book Synopsis Novatian’s Theology of the Father and Son by : Daniel Lloyd
Download or read book Novatian’s Theology of the Father and Son written by Daniel Lloyd and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early Christian theologian Novatian’s (c. 200-258) work begins with the topic of the unique and supreme Father. The categories he uses to describe the Father include both traditions from Christian sources and articulations of negative theology, especially as seen in Middle Platonism. After establishing the limitations set by philosophical and theological language, Daniel Lloyd turns to the positive categories Novatian chooses for describing the Father, highlighting Novatian’s emphasis on revelation, evaluating the parameters of the uniqueness of the Father, and showing that his theology presents the Father as distinct in attributes such as incomprehensibility, eternality, and inability to change. Having presented Novatian’s theology of the Father as the center point of his thought, Lloyd next assesses Novatian’s theology of the Son, showing that his categories and terminology, even to the point of calling the Son “God,” do not function against his theology of the unique Father. Novatian has many resources for speaking about the Son’s divinity in a way that does not contradict his theology of the Father. Lloyd presents and analyzes these resources to demonstrate that the Son’s status as ontologically subordinate to the Father is the best reading of De Trinitate.

Book Synopsis Father, Son, and Spirit by : Andreas J. Köstenberger
Download or read book Father, Son, and Spirit written by Andreas J. Köstenberger and published by New Studies in Biblical Theology. This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "While there have been recent, fine studies on aspects of John's doctrine of God, it is surprising that none summarizes and synthesizes what John has to say about God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In order to fill this gap, Kostenberger and Swain offer a fresh examination of John's trinitarian vision." "Part One situates John's trinitarian teaching within the context of Second Temple Jewish monotheism. Part Two examines the Gospel narrative in order to trace the characterization of God as Father, Son and Spirit, followed by a brief synthesis. Part Three deals more fully with major trinitarian themes in the Fourth Gospel, including its account of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and mission. A final chapter discusses the significance of John's Gospel for the church's doctrine of the Trinity, and a brief conclusion summarizes some practical implications." "For those who want to know what they ought to believe ... out of God's self-disclosure in Scripture, this book will be a stimulating delight' (D. A. Carson)."--BOOK JACKET.
Book Synopsis The Trinitarian Theology of Hilary of Poitiers by : Mark Weedman
Download or read book The Trinitarian Theology of Hilary of Poitiers written by Mark Weedman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2007-11-30 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Hilary of Poitiers was exiled from his native Poitiers in Gaul to Cappadocia, his entire theological sensibility changed. The Latin bishop, schooled in the tradition of Tertullian and Novatian, became a full-throated participant in the Trinitarian controversies of his time. This book offers a new reading of Hilary’s Trinitarian theology that takes into account the historical context of Hilary’s thought. It first examines this context and the course of Hilary’s engagement with his Homoian opponents. It then turns to the key themes of Hilary’s theology as he worked them out in that context. The result is a work that not only helps clarify Hilary’s theology, but that offers new insight into the Trinitarian controversies as a whole.
Book Synopsis Classical Trinitarian Theology by : Tarmo Toom
Download or read book Classical Trinitarian Theology written by Tarmo Toom and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-11-15 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical Trinitarian Theology for Seminary Students is a textbook on patristic Trinitarian doctrines. Part I introduces classical Trinitarian theology with the help of short discussion, definitions, and comparisons. It is designed for incoming seminary students, who have never formally studied theology. Part II is for intermediate students. It comments on three charts, which attempt to depict graphically the patristic search for Christian Trinitarian theology. This section is geared towards seminary students who have already studied for a few years and would like to revisit the classical doctrine of the Trinity at a more advanced level, but who are not really ready for engaging primary texts independently, whether in Greek, Latin, or English. Part III is composed for advanced students who enjoy tackling primary texts. It provides a list of some important Greek or Latin primary texts and the accessible translations in English
Book Synopsis Nicaea and Its Legacy by : Lewis Ayres
Download or read book Nicaea and Its Legacy written by Lewis Ayres and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2004-10-28 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first part of Nicaea and its Legacy offers a narrative of the fourth-century trinitarian controversy. It does not assume that the controversy begins with Arius, but with tensions among existing theological strategies. Lewis Ayres argues that, just as we cannot speak of one `Arian' theology, so we cannot speak of one `Nicene' theology either, in 325 or in 381. The second part of the book offers an account of the theological practices and assumptions within whichpro-Nicene theologians assumed their short formulae and creeds were to be understood. Ayres also argues that there is no fundamental division between eastern and western trinitarian theologies at the end of the fourth century. The last section of the book challenges modern post-Hegelian trinitarian theology toengage with Nicaea more deeply.
Book Synopsis Truth Is a Synthesis: Catholic Dogmatic Theology by : Mauro Gagliardi
Download or read book Truth Is a Synthesis: Catholic Dogmatic Theology written by Mauro Gagliardi and published by Emmaus Academic. This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In everyday parlance, synthesis is synonymous with short. Here, Mauro Gagliardi uses synthesis as it has been applied to the Hypostatic Union in Christ: the “Synthetic Union” of the two natures in one Person. All of dogmatic theology is presented from this et-et (both-and), Christocentric approach in Truth is a Synthesis: Catholic Dogmatic Theology. The volume presents for beginners a comprehensive, organic view of the Catholic faith. Truth is a Synthesis spotlights, in a respectful yet clear way, the different views about Christian Dogmatics held by our separated brethren, both Protestant and Orthodox. As he explores the implications of the et-et nature of theology, Gagliardi reveals the underlying unity of both Fundamental and Dogmatic theology “Professor Gagliardi’s book is in every way a magnum opus, both from the qualitative and the quantitative standpoint.”—Cardinal Gerhard L. Müller
Book Synopsis Augustine and Nicene Theology by : Rene Barnes
Download or read book Augustine and Nicene Theology written by Rene Barnes and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2024-01-25 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of essays, Michel Rene Barnes offers a new reading of the character and development of Latin Trinitarian theology in the fourth and fifth centuries. Although Augustine is the principal focus, he is treated here as an inheritor of an earlier Latin tradition. Antecedent theologians, most notably including Marius Victorinus, are given a revised interpretation, and Augustine himself is explored from multiple angles. At every turn, developments in Augustine's thought are shown to be a response to the anti-Nicene theologies of the period. Most significantly, this view decries the modern 'systematic' tendency to engage with Augustine only though a simplified version of late-nineteenth-century categories. This accusation invites the question of how far modern theology can actually engage with Patristic theology at all, but Barnes offers a way forward.
Book Synopsis The Joining of the Lord by : Ron Cottle
Download or read book The Joining of the Lord written by Ron Cottle and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2012-06 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the Christian experience, no personal bond between individuals is comparable to that of a spiritual father/son relationship. It is evidenced throughout the Bible and today is manifested in the lives of many profoundly effective believers. Yet, it is not well understood on a practical level. Neither is it broadly practiced, though it is gaining recognition with increasing strength. In this book, Dr. Cottle addresses the spiritual father/son relationship from a thoroughly biblical and pragmatically effective manner. Every Christian leader should take to heart the profound lessons offered here. These insights have been drawn from his years of intense study, clear revelation, and honest experience.ABOUT THE AUTHORDr. Ronald E. Cottle has served as a pastor of churches, both large and small. He has been president of a university and a seminary and is the author of more than fifty books and fifty Bible college courses. He is the founder of Christian Life School of Theology, a coalition of ministry schools based in local churches around the world and Beacon University. He is the founder of ACTS (Apostolic Council of Transformational Servant-Leaders) and ECAL (Embassy Coalition of Apostolic Leaders), apostolic networks which include church and marketplace leaders in the United States and numerous other nations.Dr. Cottle has earned an A.B. degree from Florida Southern College, Lakeland, Florida; a Master of Divinity from Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary, Columbia, South Carolina; and a Ph.D. in Religion from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California.

The book focuses on what it is to be like Father, like Son and like Holy Spirit, focusing in particular on the initiating love of the Father, the responsive love of the Son and the creative love of the Holy Spirit.

Book Synopsis Augustine's Early Theology of Image by : Gerald P. Boersma
Download or read book Augustine's Early Theology of Image written by Gerald P. Boersma and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean for Christ to be the "image of God"? And, if Christ is the "image of God," can the human person also unequivocally be understood to be the "image of God"? Augustine's Early Theology of Image examines Augustine's conception of the imago dei and makes the case that it represents a significant departure from the Latin pro-Nicene theologies of Hilary of Poitiers, Marius Victorinus, and Ambrose of Milan only a generation earlier. Augustine's predecessors understood the imago dei principally as a Christological term designating the unity of divine substance. But, Gerald P. Boersma argues, Augustine affirms that Christ is an image of equal likeness, while the human person is an image of unequal likeness. Boersma's careful study thus argues that a Platonic and participatory evaluation of the nature of "image" enables Augustine's early theology of the image of God to move beyond that of his Latin predecessors and affirm the imago dei both of Christ and of the human person.
Book Synopsis The Apologists and Paul by : Todd D. Still
Download or read book The Apologists and Paul written by Todd D. Still and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-13 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the use of Paul's writing within the work of ante-Nicene apologetic writers. It takes apologetics as a broad genre in which many early Christian writers participated, offering rhetorical defenses for emerging aspects of doctrine, rooted in understanding of the scriptures, and often specifically the writings of Paul. The volume interacts with the writings of many significant 'apologetic' writers, including: Melito of Sardis, Clement of Alexandria, Tatian, Tertullian, Hippolytus and Cyprian. The chapters examine how these early Christian writers used the letters of Paul to develop their own philosophical ideas and defenses of aspects of the emerging Christian faith. The internationally renowned contributors have all been specially commissioned for this volume, and an afterword by Todd D. Still considers the question of whether or not Paul was an 'apologist' himself.
