Book excerpt: Discover the remarkable life of Paul the Apostle...It is a verifiable fact that the Apostle Paul was one of the most prolific writers of the New Testament, making him one of the founders of the Christian religion that we know today. Although he came on the scene after Jesus Christ, it could be argued that Saint Paul played the second biggest role in the history of Christianity. This is rather fascinating considering the fact that he began his career as one of the biggest persecutors of the faith. Paul was a devout follower of Judaism and initially considered the Christians a heretical sect that needed to be stamped out. All of that changed when he made a trip to the ancient Syrian city of Damascus in the early first century. This book follows the life of Paul the Apostle and the ultimate transformation that he experienced.

Book Synopsis Paul The Apostle by : Robert E. Picirilli
Download or read book Paul The Apostle written by Robert E. Picirilli and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 1986-10-08 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Except for the Lord Himself,no single figure has done more for the Christian faith.” If you want to understand Christianity, you need to understand Paul. But with so many books on the apostle, where do you start? Paul the Apostle is the ideal choice if you want a solid understanding of Paul’s life, ministry, and writings without getting weighed down with minutia. Author Robert E. Picirilli, who taught college courses on Paul for over twenty-five years, found that most books on the apostle were either too technical or too basic, so he wrote a book that strikes a happy medium. It offers: A profile of Paul in his historical and cultural context Outlines and explanations of his missionary journeys Introductions and brief analyses of each of his epistles Useful for individual study or as a textbook (as it is in many universities today), Paul the Apostle is a great one-stop study of the man who wrote half the New Testament, spread the gospel to the heart of the known world, and gave his life for the Kingdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This major contribution to Pauline scholarship by a widely-respected New Testament scholar is the culmination of over forty years of teaching on Paul.

Book Synopsis Paul, His Letters, and Acts (Library of Pauline Studies) by : Thomas E. Phillips
Download or read book Paul, His Letters, and Acts (Library of Pauline Studies) written by Thomas E. Phillips and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aside from Jesus, the Apostle Paul had the greatest formative influence on the early Christian movement. Yet who was this passionate missionary who carried the message of Christ throughout the Mediterranean world? The New Testament writings give us not one but two portraits of Paul. We read numerous details of Paul's life and relationships in the Book of Acts and we also find an additional set of details about Paul's activities in his letters. Yet how consistent are these two portraits? And which one gives us the most accurate picture of the historical Paul? In this volume Thomas E. Phillips examines the portrayals of Paul in recent biblical scholarship in the light of these two major NT portraits. Believing the apostolic conference at Jerusalem to be a watershed event, Phillips draws conclusions that help contemporary readers get a more accurate picture of Paul.

Book Synopsis Paul and the Good Life by : Associate Professor of Humanities and Theology Julien C H Smith
Download or read book Paul and the Good Life written by Associate Professor of Humanities and Theology Julien C H Smith and published by . This book was released on 2020-11 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salvation and human flourishing--a life marked by fulfillment and well-being--have often been divorced in the thinking and practice of the church. For the apostle Paul, however, the two were inseparable in the vision for the good life. Drawing on the revolutionary teachings and kingdom proclamation of Jesus, Paul and the early church issued a challenge to the ancient world's dominant narratives of flourishing. Paul's conviction of Jesus' universal Lordship emboldened him to imagine not just another world, but this world as it might be when transformed. With Paul and the Good Life, Julien Smith introduces us afresh to Paul's vision for the life of human flourishing under the reign of Jesus. By placing Paul's letters in conversation with both ancient virtue ethics and kingship discourse, Smith outlines the Apostle's christologically shaped understanding of the good life. Numerous Hellenistic philosophical traditions situated the individual cultivation of virtue within the larger telos of the flourishing polis. Against this backdrop, Paul regards the church as a heavenly commonwealth whose citizens are being transformed into the character of its king, Jesus. Within this vision, salvation entails both deliverance from the deforming power of sin and the re-forming of the person and the church through embodied allegiance to Jesus. Citizenship within this commonwealth calls for a countercultural set of virtues, ones that foster unity amidst diversity and the care of creation. Smith concludes by enlisting the help of present-day interlocutors to draw out the implications of Paul's argument for our own context. The resulting conversation aims to place Paul in engagement with missional hermeneutics, spiritual disciplines, liturgical formation, and agrarianism. Ultimately, Paul and the Good Life invites us to imagine how citizens of this heavenly commonwealth might live in the in-between time, in which Jesus's reign has been inaugurated but not consummated.
Book Synopsis An Introduction to the Study of Paul by : David G. Horrell
Download or read book An Introduction to the Study of Paul written by David G. Horrell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-26 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This tried and tested introduction to Paul needs little introduction of its own. After considering Paul's importance and influence, and the important sources for the study of Paul, the volume covers the following key topics: the earliest period of Christianity - from Jesus to Paul; Paul's life before and after his 'conversion'; his individual letters; the major elements of his theology; his attitude to Israel and the Jewish law; perspectives on the Pauline assemblies, including their socio-economic location, meeting places, and attitudes towards women; and Paul's legacy in the New Testament and beyond. The volume has been revised throughout and fully updated with respect to bibliography, and to presenting the latest debates surrounding Paul's thought in a manageable format - including those around 'old' and 'new' perspectives, with a new section on the 'radical' new Jewish perspective, and those related to the socio-economic status and character of the Pauline assemblies. The helpful study questions and reading lists have also been revised.

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).

PAUL'S PREPARATION Study I EARLY LIFE THE PLACE OF PAUL The Man, Paul, judged by the influence he has exerted in the world, is one of the greatest characters in all history. He is pre-eminent not only as a missionary, but as a marvelous thinker and writer. "He was a personality of vast power, force, and individuality." There are some men who seem to be born and prepared to do a large work for the world; Paul makes the impression upon those who carefully read the record of his life that he stands first in this class of men. The Work of the Apostle--As John the Baptist preceded Christ and prepared the way for His coming, so Paul succeeded Christ and went throughout the heathen world proclaiming that the Christ had come, and calling upon all men, Jews and Gentiles, to repent and accept Him as their Lord and Savior. So wide was his work as a missionary of the cross, and an interpreter of the Christ, that a certain class of critics have sought to make him the creator of Christianity, as we know it; a position which Paul would be the first to repudiate. He sought of himself, before he was apprehended by Christ on the way to Damascus, to drive Christianity from the face of the earth. The Leading Thought in Paul's mind, after his conversion, was personal devotion to Christ; this was the mainspring of every act. He said, "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless, I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me" (Gal. 2:20). "For me to...
