Book Synopsis Pauline Theology as a Way of Life by : Joshua W. Jipp
Download or read book Pauline Theology as a Way of Life written by Joshua W. Jipp and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2023-07-25 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul is known as a theologian, and indeed his writings yield rich theological insights. But Paul was foremost a missionary and a pastor who wrote to real people and churches. In this fresh approach to Pauline theology, respected scholar Joshua Jipp brings Paul's pastoral concerns to the fore, specifically his concern for human flourishing in his congregations. Jipp argues that Paul's writings are best understood as invitations to a particular way of life, one that is oriented toward the supreme good of experiencing life in God through participation in Christ. For Paul, Christ epitomizes the good life and enables others to live it. While analyzing Paul's thought through this lens of well-being and flourishing, Jipp introduces conversation partners as points of comparison and contrast. He interacts with ancient philosophy and modern positive psychology, both of which also address "the good life." This important and substantial contribution to Pauline studies covers issues such as transcendence, suffering and death, relationships, pursuit of Christian virtue, and moral agency. It will be a valuable resource for all students of Paul.

Book Synopsis Apostle of the Last Days by : C. Marvin Pate
Download or read book Apostle of the Last Days written by C. Marvin Pate and published by Kregel Academic. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul’s life, letters, and theology are unified by the theme of the overlapping of two ages—this age and the age to come. With the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the age to come (i e , kingdom of God) broke into this present age but didn’t end it. Where other important doctrines such as justification by faith, reconciliation, and the cross of Christ were key players in Paul’s theology, Marvin Pate compellingly demonstrates that the overarching theme driving the Pauline corpus was indeed Paul’s inaugurated eschatology. In fact, Paul’s apocalyptic framework was only one of a number of other rival eschatologically focused religious perspectives of the day, such as the Imperial Cult, Hellenistic/syncretistic religion, and the merkabah Judaizers. Paul’s vigorous debates with the churches he served centered on the exclusivity of the gospel of Christ that he preached: the nonnegotiable apocalypse of Jesus the Messiah. Apostle of the Last Days will be welcomed in the classroom as a one-volume treatment of Paul’s life and letters as well as his theology.

Book Synopsis Paul and His Life-Transforming Theology by : Roger Mohrlang
Download or read book Paul and His Life-Transforming Theology written by Roger Mohrlang and published by Wipf and Stock. This book was released on 2013-02-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Description: Here is a concise, inviting introduction to the greatest of the early Christian missionaries, the Apostle Paul--his life, his letters, his thinking--and the life-transforming gospel he proclaimed. Readers will find this book academically stimulating, theologically rich, and personally challenging. It highlights the ways Paul's life and thinking differ from--and challenge--the life and thinking of Christians today. Written in nontechnical language for both Christian students and general Christian readers, this book--the result of a lifetime of studying and teaching Paul's letters--will be helpful to all students and teachers of the Bible who want a deeper understanding of Paul, his theology, and the implications of his powerful letters for Christians today. Endorsements: ""This carefully crafted book--the result of a lifetime of study, teaching, and reflection on Paul--is drawn from firsthand witness of the apostle's Epistles and the book of Acts, rather than from the voluminous secondary literature on Paul. Only a master of the art can take a complex and sometimes daunting figure, and by focusing on what is true, essential, and enduring, produce such a lucid and illuminating study."" --James R. Edwards, Professor of Theology, Whitworth University ""Roger Mohrlang has produced a simple, basic, and lucid introduction to Paul's theology that will be helpful to a wide readership. The content of Paul's theology is set forth with impressive clarity, but also with very practical relevance to the human condition. The result is not only informative, but also practical and even inspirational. Few books offer so rich a content in such a small compass."" --Donald A. Hagner, Professor Emeritus of New Testament, Fuller Theological Seminary ""[This] gives evidence of meticulous scholarship. . . . It unequivocally presents well-argued conclusions on some of today's controversial issues on the interpretation of Paul's writings and theology. It skillfully handles the difficult paradoxes in Paul's thought, but is written in a style that is accessible to the uninitiated. This is a rare combination that makes this an outstanding introduction to Paul that I hope to keep close to me for constant reference."" --Ajith Fernando, Teaching Director, Youth for Christ, Sri Lanka ""Clearly written, informed in its scholarship, and incisive in its treatment of the main issues in the apostle's life and thought, Mohrlang's book will serve as an excellent introduction to Paul. Solidly within the evangelical tradition, the book nonetheless offers a biblical challenge to a number of trends in contemporary evangelicalism. It will warrant and reward careful study."" --Stephen Westerholm, Professor of Religious Studies, McMaster University About the Contributor(s): Roger Mohrlang is Professor of Biblical Studies at Whitworth University, Spokane, Washington. He also serves as a Bible translation consultant. He is the author of Matthew and Paul: A Comparison of Ethical Perspectives (1984, 2004) and Romans (Cornerstone Biblical Commentary, 2007).
Book Synopsis A Pauline Theology of Church Leadership by : Andrew D. Clarke
Download or read book A Pauline Theology of Church Leadership written by Andrew D. Clarke and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2008-01-29 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholarly studies consider Paul's views on leadership tend to fall into one of three camps: 1) the historical development view, which in large measure identifies developments in church practice with developments in Pauline and deutero-Pauline ecclesiology; 2) the synchronic, historical reconstruction, typically making use of Graeco-Roman, social context sources, or social-scientific modelling, focusing on a single congregation, and sometimes distinguishing between the situation to which Paul was responding and the pattern he sought to impose; and 3) the theological/hermeneutical analysis, identifying Paul's particular approach to power and authority, often independently of any detailed reconstruction of the situations to which Paul was responding. Andrew Clarke has explored in an earlier work, Serve the Community of the Church (Eerdmans, 2000), the distinctive, local and historical situations in the various Pauline communities and concluded that there is no evidence that they organised themselves according to a common set of governmental structures which clearly developed with the passage of time. Rather each community was influenced by its own localized, social and cultural context. The present project builds on this, and necessarily focuses on leadership style rather than church order. It seeks to recover from Paul's critical responses, his generic ethos of church leadership, including the ideal qualities, characteristics and task of leaders and the nature of appropriate interaction and engagement with church members. In the light of current, theoretical discussions about power and gender, the study focuses particularly on Paul's attitude towards hierarchy, egalitarianism, authority, responsibility and privilege.
Book Synopsis Thinking through Paul by : Todd D. Still
Download or read book Thinking through Paul written by Todd D. Still and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of Paul and his letters can be exciting, challenging, and life-changing, but only if it is done well and only if students achieve more than a basic familiarity with the subject. This is exactly what Pauline experts Bruce W. Longenecker and Todd D. Still accomplish with their new textbook aimed at college and seminary level courses on Paul and his writings. Longenecker and Still bring decades of study and expertise to Thinking through Paul, challenging readers to delve deeply into Paul’s writings and wrestle with his richly-layered and dynamic theological discourse. Seeking to situate their study of the Apostle in proper perspective, Longenecker and Still first look at Paul’s life before and after his encounter with the risen Christ en route to Damascus, then examine each of Paul’s letters individually, and finally synthesize the Pauline writings to highlight the main strands of Paul’s theologizing—all the while keeping in mind the particular context of first-century Christianity. Filled with images, maps, charts, and questions for further study and discussion, Thinking through Paul is both engaging and easy-to-follow, making it the perfect choice for classrooms and for interested readers.

Book Synopsis Celebrating Romans by : Sheila E. McGinn
Download or read book Celebrating Romans written by Sheila E. McGinn and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings international Christian scholars together to celebrate Robert Jewettbs lifelong interest in Romans by reviewing -- and significantly advancing -- five fruitful approaches to Paulbs most influential work. James D. G. Dunn, Jeffrey B. Gibson, and Graydon F. Snyder show where the bnew approachb to Pauline theology elucidates and corrects earlier theological appropriations of the letter to the Romans. William S. Campbell, James D. Hester, and Wilhelm Wuellner illustrate different models of rhetorical criticism. Peter Lampe and Carolyn Osiek show what can be gained by a social-historical approach to Romans. Sheila E. McGinn, Elsa Tamez, and Pamela Thimmes demonstrate how a feminist hermeneutic clarifies key texts from Romans and challenges the interpretive tradition. Keith Augustus Burton, Lareta Halteman Finger, and L. D. Hurst create a conversation between Paulbs letter and contemporary culture. An introduction provides context for these chapters by offering a helpful overview of recent trends in New Testament scholarship that are pertinent to Pauline studies, particularly the study of Romans. The authors, all established teachers in academic and church settings, recognize the need for analyses of the Bible that are substantial and scholarly but also intelligible to nonspecialists. The essays in "Celebrating Romans" will challenge the thinking of students and scholars alike, illuminating diverse methods of biblical analysis and fostering a deeper appreciation for and engagement with this crowning literary achievement of the apostle to the Gentiles.
