Book Synopsis Nonconformity's Romantic Generation by : Mark Hopkins
Download or read book Nonconformity's Romantic Generation written by Mark Hopkins and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to attempt a theological portrait of a pivotal generation in the history of the English Free Churches. It does so through a dual strategy: firstly, studying the theological development of key leaders over several decades; and secondly, capturing the state of the Unions -- Congregational and Baptist -- through the freeze frames provided by their biggest denominational controversies in the 1870s and 1880s respectively. Archetypal Victorians whose working lives stretched through most of that long reign, in the 1860s this generation inherited leadership from a predecessor that had eked out the dying momentum of the Evangelical Revival. Bathed in the formidable energy of a newly discovered Romanticism, they wrestled strenuously with the fresh challenges it exposed them to while engaged in lengthy ministries in thriving city churches. They variously tried rejecting and embracing the liberal transformation of their evangelical heritage, or even, in the case of R.W. Dale, somehow achieving their synthesis. Yet in the end neither he nor C.H. Spurgeon, nor anyone else, really found an expression of Christian faith that the next generation could take up and build with, and their successors were to preside over the first obvious stages of a long, deep, and traumatic decline. At a time when this period is again being scrutinized for that elusive 'answer', the author will not claim to have tracked it down there; but the conclusion nonetheless indicates that this study surprisingly helped open up vistas much broader than those of the nineteenth-century debates.

Book Synopsis Jesus Christ Today by : Edgar V. McKnight
Download or read book Jesus Christ Today written by Edgar V. McKnight and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus' identity is not simply "out there" to be discovered scientifically. Jesus' identity is shaped historically in believers' experience with him. Interpretation of Jesus of Nazareth, the significance of Jesus Christ, and Christian identity operate and interact in the same fashion as the hermeneutical circle. These elements simultaneously call forth and justify themselves and each other. This book addresses twenty-first-century Christians who are challenged intellectually and spiritually to read the Gospels' story of Jesus in light of what contemporary scholarship offers for understanding the first-century prophet from Nazareth. The invaluable move from precritical and dogmatic readings to rigorous historical-critical readings is applauded. But contemporary Christians are not convinced by approaches that begin with negative assumptions about the suitability of Christian sources for construction of the story of Jesus because of the bias of those sources. In a postmodern epoch, our critical reductionist approach to history is absorbed in a more satisfying and comprehensive approach. The data and relational sequences discovered by "modern" categories of historiography are enriched by a higher ordering, a mentality that includes but is not limited to our charting. Book jacket.

Book Synopsis Incredible Shrinking Son of Man by : Robert M. Price
Download or read book Incredible Shrinking Son of Man written by Robert M. Price and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2009-09-25 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book should be mandatory reading for all scholars concerned with Christian origins ... nothing of comparable importance has been written for at least a decade." - Freethinker For more than a century scholars have been examining the Gospels and other traditions about the life of Jesus to determine their historical accuracy. Although the results of these scholarly efforts are sometimes controversial, the consensus among researchers today is that the four Evangelists'' accounts cannot be taken at face value. In fact, a team of more than 100 scholars called the Jesus Seminar has come to the conclusion that on average only about 18 percent of the four Gospels is historically accurate.An active member of the Jesus Seminar, Dr. Robert M. Price presents the fruits of this important historical research in this fascinating discussion of early Christianity. As the title suggests, Price is none too optimistic about the reliability of the Gospel tradition as a source of accurate historical information about the life of Jesus. Indeed, he feels that his colleagues in the Jesus Seminar are much too optimistic in their estimate of authentic material in the Gospels. After an introduction to the historical-critical method for nonspecialists and a critique of the methods used by the Jesus Seminar, Price systematically discusses the narrative and teaching materials in the Gospel, clearly presenting what is known and not known about all of the major episodes of Jesus'' life. He also examines the parables for authenticity as well as Jesus'' teachings about the Kingdom of God, repentance, prayer, possessions and poverty, the Atonement, and many other features of the Gospels.Written for the general reading public in a lively and accessible style, Dr. Price''s highly informative discussion will be of interest to anyone who has wondered about the origins of Christianity.

Book Synopsis Ad 2036 Is the End by : Christian T. Jacobsen
Download or read book Ad 2036 Is the End written by Christian T. Jacobsen and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-03-31 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know that the exact year of Jesus' crucifixion was predicted over five hundred years before His birth? Did you know that a similar prophecy predicts the exact year of Jesus' return to earth? In fact, the timing of the Second Coming of Christ is foreshadowed in no less than eleven places in the scriptures. These timelines all point to the end of human history within this generation. Although the Bible teaches that "no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen," (Mark 13:32) it says nothing about not knowing the year. Faithful Christians most certainly " won't be surprised when the day of the Lord comes," (1 Thessalonians 5:4) rather, they will " see the day approaching." (Hebrews 10:25) This book reveals that the Glorious Day will occur within three and a half years of AD 2036. CHRIST HAS DIED! CHRIST IS RISEN! CHRIST WILL COME AGAIN!

Book Synopsis The Kings of Revelation by : Cyrus Mede
Download or read book The Kings of Revelation written by Cyrus Mede and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-05-15 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I could write much more on this subject of our spiritual walk but I have only built upon another mans foundation, pertaining to these matters. Watchman Nee at the tum of the last century whilst in a Chinese prison and as a martyer wrote several works which have been complied into one volume the Spiritual Man. I would suggest this as a compulsory read, as the truths contained are pure spiritual gold and will certainly set you on the correct spiritual path. As you are now aware much has been added to the book of Revelation and many a predecessor has added to the book, which has led them away from the truth contained therein with theories of great tribulations and raptures of the Church. I have in no way attempted to answer all the mysteries contained in this book but only to lay a true foundation on which others may build. Just as the early apostles used the Old Testament to write the New so I have done only the same as they have by using both, so that I may not labor in vain. The book of the Acts of the Apostles has never stopped being written and will go on until the end of the age. As the Apostle Paul admonishes the church in Galatia. Galatians 1: 9 As we said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel different from or contrary to that which you received ffrom us], let him be accursed [anathema, devoted to destruction, doomed to eternal punishment]! This I also claim with my apostolic authority. This is my Gospel of the end, the Gospel of Kings. It is a word that I received from Jesus himself, and I claim all of the apostolic rights to be a special messenger sent from God, and to reprove and correct the Church of the Living God, as He has authorized me to do. Do not add to nor take away from any of the words contained herein. Selah, pause and calmly think of and reflect on these things. Amen so, be, it.
Book Synopsis The Coming of the Son of Man by : Andrew Perriman
Download or read book The Coming of the Son of Man written by Andrew Perriman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing the powerful motif of the coming of the Son of man from Daniel through to Revelation, Andrew Perriman provides thought-provoking ideas about eschatological narrative. What was it like to hear the biblical proclamation of this coming for the first time in a cultural, political, and religious context very different from our own? How did early Christians think about the imminence of the promised day of the Lord? What difference did this message make to how they thought, lived, and spread the gospel message? This book engages the minds of jaded twenty-first-century postmoderns who have heard it all before. By seeing the fulfilment of much of New Testament apocalyptic in events of the first centuries, Perriman proposes that in some important sense we have moved beyond eschatology--into an age of renewed community and mission that is creational in its scope.ÊThe Coming of the Son of ManÊis important reading for those who want to engage in the debate concerning what church is--and will be.
