Book excerpt: Over the past forty years, major Patristic scholars have radically called into question the biographical and literary profiles of Gregory Thaumaturgus (the 'Wonderworker'), considered for centuries the famous pupil of Origen and the charismatic bishop of Neocaesarea. Presenting a thorough reconsideration of the ancient sources on Gregory and the main works ascribed to him, Preaching the Gospel to the Hellenes demonstrates that the doubt cast on his traditional figure is unwarranted. The book re-establishes solid ground on which this important actor in Early Christianity can be placed and corroborates his engagement in confronting and evangelising pagans. Moreover, by taking a fresh look at information provided on Gregory by key Patristic authors and scrutinising the addressees of his works, this study sheds new light on the Christian cultural and social environment in Palestine and Asia Minor, as well as on the history of Christian theology between the third and fourth centuries.

Book Synopsis Did Jesus Speak Greek? by : G. Scott Gleaves
Download or read book Did Jesus Speak Greek? written by G. Scott Gleaves and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-05-12 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did Jesus speak Greek? An affirmative answer to the question will no doubt challenge traditional presuppositions. The question relates directly to the historical preservation of Jesus's words and theology. Traditionally, the authenticity of Jesus's teaching has been linked to the recovery of the original Aramaic that presumably underlies the Gospels. The Aramaic Hypothesis infers that the Gospels represent theological expansions, religious propaganda, or blatant distortions of Jesus's teachings. Consequently, uncovering the original Aramaic of Jesus's teachings will separate the historical Jesus from the mythical personality. G. Scott Gleaves, in Did Jesus Speak Greek?, contends that the Aramaic Hypothesis is inadequate as an exclusive criterion of historical Jesus studies and does not aptly take into consideration the multilingual culture of first-century Palestine. Evidence from archaeological, literary, and biblical data demonstrates Greek linguistic dominance in Roman Palestine during the first century CE. Such preponderance of evidence leads not only to the conclusion that Jesus and his disciples spoke Greek but also to the recognition that the Greek New Testament generally and the Gospel of Matthew in particular were original compositions and not translations of underlying Aramaic sources.
Book Synopsis Two Important Greek Words Frequently Used by the Lord Jesus Christ and His Disciples in Their Teachings and Preaching Concerning "poieo" and "ergazomai" by : Repsaj Jasper
Download or read book Two Important Greek Words Frequently Used by the Lord Jesus Christ and His Disciples in Their Teachings and Preaching Concerning "poieo" and "ergazomai" written by Repsaj Jasper and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-04-10 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When John the Baptist was in prison he sent two of his disciples to ask Jesus whether He was the One coming or should they expect another? The Lord Jesus answer to them was by quoting Isaiah 35:5-6 and adding that He came to preach the gospel to the poor. This incident was reported in Matthew 11:3-5 and Luke 7:20-22. After His water baptism by John the Baptist and the coming of the Holy Spirit to dwell in Him and after He was driven by the Holy Spirit to the wilderness and after He passed all the tests the devil placed upon Him, He went straight into preaching the gospel and calling the people to repent and believe in the gospel(Mark 1:12-15). In anothe incident recorded in Luke 4:18 the Lord went into a synagogue in Nazareth and He read to the congregation Isaiah 61:1-2 in which He revealed that He was the One the God anointed and sent to preach the gospel to the poor. WHAT EXACTLY IS THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION PREACHED BY THE LORD JESUS CHRIST WHEN HE WAS ON THE EARTH? There are hardly any books by "Christian authors" giving the details of the gospel as preached by the Lord. Isaiah 61:1-2 and Luke 4:18 are very clear scriptures that the God anointed Jesus Christ to preach the gospel to the poor. Yet almost all the writings and sermons by "Christian theologians and preachers" concerning the gospel were/are based mainly on the teachings of Paul. Paul himself revealed in Ephesians 2:20 that believers must be built up on the FOUNDATION of the apostles and prophets, the Lord Jesus being the CORNERSTONE. This means the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ are the CORNERSTONE and the teachings of the apostles and prophets are the FOUNDATION. The FOUNDATION is clearly based upon the CORNERSTONE. This means the teachings of Peter, Paul, John, James, etc must be based upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ, the CORNERSTONE. During the time of the apostle Paul the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ as recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John were not available to be used as the BASIS to compare with what Paul, Peter, John, James, etc taught. Called out ones especially the gentiles only have what Paul taught them. Many of Paul's teachings concerning salvation in relation to works, faith, law, etc. appear contradictory or open to different ways of interpretation which had led to the establishment of many different sects of Christianity, hence many organizational churches. The interpretation of the teachings of Pauls and other apostles must be based upon the CORNERSTONE teachings of the Lord Jesus in order to arrive at the true understanding of the gospel as taught by the apostles. This book in particular details the teachings of the Lord Jesus principally and His apostles and prophets secondarily concerning two Greek words "poieo"(meaning to do or to make or to produce") and "ergazomai"(meaning to toil or to labour) in relation to the gospel of salvation. Since "poieo" and "ergazomai" are directly linked to works, it means the gospel of salvation requires doing and labouring works that are acceptable to the Lord Jesus Christ in order for believers to receive everlasting life. All the books written by the author have one theme: All interpretations of all the writings and teachings of the apostles and prophets must be based upon the clear CORNERSTONE teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ in order to arrive at their true meaning and understanding that are essential to the belief and walk of every believer to receive everlasting life. Wrong interpretation of Paul's teachings will lead to false understanding of the gospel of salvation and will lead those who believe to the broad road to damnation and not to everlasting life, because they will lead believers to follow a different Jesus Christ and not the true Jesus Christ, the One who will lead true believers to everlasting life through obedience to the true gospel of salvation.
Download or read book Why Won't They Listen written by Ken Ham and published by New Leaf Publishing Group. This book was released on 2002 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot of money and time is spent by Christians who have a passion to spread the gospel. Across the globe, this effort is paying off as seekers find Christ, the source of truth and peace. In many cultures, though, appeals made on behalf of the Christian faith are met with blank stares, indifference, even mocking hostility. Ken Ham, one of Christendom's most astute observers of evangelism, is convinced that compromise with evolutionary world views has virtually crippled preaching and teaching efforts, especially in Western societies. In this truly bold new book, Ham presents an ambitious plan to fulfill the Great Commission. A compelling writer and speaker, Ham deftly exposes the great flaws of Darwinism, and shows how compromise with this philosophy of death is killing the Church. By urging Christians to stand on the veracity of the Bible, Ham clears the jungle of tangled views of reality, and helps committed Christians see the path to effective evangelism. -- Amazon.com

Download or read book Apostle Paul written by Ralph F Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-05 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Apostle Paul is one of the most important teachers in the New Testament, authoring a large portion of the New Testament. His life and letters have guided, inspired, encouraged, and challenged the church for two millennia. But what makes Paul tick? The author contends that Paul's essential genius lies in his passion to know Jesus deeply and intimately. We can get ahold of this passion by exploring Paul's life and ministry over the course of 11 lessons. The narrative of the Book of Acts forms the basis of a chronological account of his life, with biographical elements included from Paul's letters. In addition, each lesson examines one or more of Paul's passions and key teachings, and how they can impact a believer's life, values, and commitments today. Some of these include: - Salvation by grace through faith, rather than by strict observance of the Law. - The passion to proclaim Jesus despite opposition and persecution. - Being totally surrendered to Christ, in Paul's words, "Crucified with Christ." - Knowing Jesus intimately -- in a way that surpasses everything else. Initially developed as an online study, this book is ideal for personal spiritual development, use by teachers and small group leaders, and for sermon development.

Book Synopsis Tatian's Address to the Greeks by : Apostle Arne Horn
Download or read book Tatian's Address to the Greeks written by Apostle Arne Horn and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-10-08 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tatian was an Assyrian who was a pupil of Justin Martyr in Rome, where, Justin says, the apomnemoneumata (recollections or memoirs) of the Apostles, the gospels, were read every Sunday. When Justin quotes the synoptic Gospels, he tends to do so in a harmonised form, and Helmut Koester and others conclude that Justin must have possessed a Greek harmony text of Matthew, Luke and Mark. If so, it is unclear how much Tatian may have borrowed from this previous author in determining his own narrative sequence of Gospel elements. It is equally unclear whether Tatian took the Syriac Gospel texts composited into his Diatessaron from a previous translation, or whether the translation was his own. Where the Diatessaron records Gospel quotations from the Jewish Scriptures, the text appears to agree with that found in the Syriac Peshitta Old Testament rather than that found in the Greek Septuagint as used by the original Gospel authors.
