Book excerpt: Excerpt from Renascent Christianity, a Forecast of the Twentieth Century: In the Light of Higher Criticism of the Bible, Study of Compartive Religion and of the Universal Prayer for Religious Unity It is with this hope that all will bid God-speed to this potent new volume." 2. - "This volume called 'Renascent Christianity,' is written with prophetic earnestness. It is a plea for a return to the ' truth as it is in Jesus.' Its plea is based upon the novel ground that his teachings were eclectic and resumed in their simplicity all that was best in the world's sacred scriptures. This idea suggests that Christianity is aplrroma containing all that is best in all the other great religions of the world. The author's spirit is essentially catholic and irenic, and invites the cooperation of all liberal-minded people of whatever creed. lie is very stern in his indictment of those ' reversions,' as he calls them, that have changed the character of Christianity from its original purity. Would not 'corruptions' be a better word than ' reversions'? More bent on driving home his message than on making a literary impression, he has drawn liberally on many writers for the confirmation of his principle. The patience and the diligence that have gone into the structure of the book cannot be praised too much, and I sincerely trust that they will meet with their reward in a wide and cordial recognition of the spirit and the purpose of his work." 3. - "The subject of the book is one which must command the interest of all men who are in earnest about religion. The care, and reverence, and scholarly training with which the author has treated it will deserve respect and, it seems to me, interest among all faithful and conservative scholars." 4. - "This is a brave, true, manly piece of work. Brave - because it is so out-spoken as almost certainly to displease those who care chiefly for conformity and quiet. True - so true in its intents and purposes as to silence all questions of entire intellectual agreement. Manly-in that its breadth of sympathy is as wide as the world and excludes no child of the Heavenly Father. Whether it is really the original Christianity or not this author so earnestly portrays, it is something so fine and sweet that all loving hearts will wish its purpose may be realized. I welcome its clear challenge to intellectual as well as moral seriousness. Give us all this earnestness, this conservatism, this divine and all-inclusive sympathy and we may courageously 3rd cheerfully lift up the cry-' The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand," 5. - " I respond with gratitude and 'God-speed.' So far as I gather from your line of thought and of argument, it seems to me the defense of a thesis to which the corrupters of the Religion of Jesus will find it difficult to make an answer."

Download or read book Syriac Christian Culture written by Aaron Michael Butts and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2021-01-08 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Syriac Christianity developed in the first centuries CE in the Middle East, where it continued to flourish throughout Late Antiquity and the Medieval period, while also spreading widely, as far as India and China. Today, Syriac Christians are found in the Middle East, in India, as well in diasporas scattered across the globe. Over this extended time period and across this vast geographic expanse, Syriac Christians have built impressive churches and monasteries, crafted fine pieces of art, and written and transmitted a sizable body of literature. Though often overlooked, neglected, and even persecuted, Syriac Christianity has been – and continues to be – an important part of the humanistic heritage of the last two millennia. The present volume brings together fourteen studies that offer fresh perspectives on Syriac Christianity, especially its literary texts and authors. The timeframes of the individual studies span from the second-century Syriac translation of the Hebrew Bible up to the thirteenth century with the end of the Syriac Renaissance. Several studies analyze key authors from Late Antiquity, such as Aphrahat, Ephrem, Narsai, and Jacob of Serugh. Others investigate translations into Syriac, both from Hebrew and from Greek, while still others examine hagiography, especially its formation and transmission. Reflecting a growing trend in the field, the volume also devotes significant attention to the Medieval period, during which Syriac Christians lived under Islamic rule. The studies in the volume are united in their quest to explore the richness, diversity, and vibrance of Syriac Christianity.

Download or read book Civic Christianity in Renaissance Italy written by David Michael D'Andrea and published by University Rochester Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling examination of how a religious brotherhood administered charity in its local community and acted as mediator between provincial elites and the early modern state. Civic Christianity in Renaissance Italy explores the often subtle and sometimes harsh realities of life on the Venetian mainland. Focusing on the confraternity of Santa Maria dei Battuti and its Ospedale, the book addressesa number of well-established and newly articulated historiographical questions: the governance of territorial states, the civic and religious role of confraternities, the status of women and marginalized groups, and popular religious devotion. Adapting the objectives and methods of microhistory, D'Andrea has written neither a traditional history of political subjugation nor a straightforward survey of poor relief. Instead, thematic chapters survey the activities of a powerful religious brotherhood [Santa Maria dei Battuti] and document the interconnected local, regional, and international factors that fashioned the social world of Venetian subjects. Grounded in previously unexplored archival material, the book is an innovative study of the nexus between local religion and Venetian territorial power, providing scholars with this first scholarly monograph of the city that served as the keystone of Venice's mainland empire. This original approach to the critical relationship between provincial powers and the central government also contributes to other important areas of historical inquiry, including the history of popular religion, poor relief, medicine, and education. David D'Andrea is Associate Professor of History at Oklahoma State University.

Download or read book A Thematic Access-Oriented Bibliography of Jesus’s Resurrection written by Michael J. Alter and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-12-31 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The keystone of Christianity is Jesus's physical, bodily resurrection. Present-day scholars can be significantly challenged as they forage through voluminous documents on the resurrection of Jesus. The literature measures well over seven thousand sources in English-language books alone. This makes finding specific sources that are most relevant for specific scholarly purposes an arduous task. Even when a specific book is relevant, finding the parts of the book that are most relevant to the resurrection rather than other topics often requires additional effort. A Thematic Access-Oriented Bibliography of Jesus's Resurrection addresses these challenges in several ways. First, the bibliography organizes more than seven thousand English sources into twelve main categories and then thirty-four subcategories, which are designed to help you find the most relevant literature quickly and efficiently. Embedded are pro and con arguments which support efficient access through brief annotations and then annotate the diversity and complexity of the field of religion by including sources that represent a diverse range of views: theistic (e.g., Christian, Jewish, Muslim, etc.), agnostic, and nontheistic. The objective of this bibliography is to provide convenient access to relevant sources from a variety of perspectives, allowing you to browse or find the one source accurately and with ease.
