This book was released on 2021-10-20 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2020 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, , language: English, abstract: This essay depicts the common problem to be facing the modern student of the New Testament, which is the conformity to the standard of the current world. To address this problem, the author of Roman 12 is pointing us, to the life of transformation as a specific application. The New Testament being a document, which has been in existence universally, contains this call for transformation in the renewed heart. We realized that the conformity and transformation do not exit together; one has to make a decision to transform in order to remain relevant in the renewed heart. To further maintain within the transformed mind, one has to respond to God by a way of confession, repentance and being baptized. This action will humble one to remain within the transformed life in the renewal of their mind.
Book Synopsis Understanding the Social World of the New Testament by : Dietmar Neufeld
Download or read book Understanding the Social World of the New Testament written by Dietmar Neufeld and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-10-29 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Testament is a book of great significance in Western culture yet is often inaccessible to students because the modern world differs so significantly from the ancient Mediterranean one in which it was written. It is imperative to develop a cross-cultural understanding of the values of the ancient Mediterranean society from which the New Testament arose in order to fully appreciate the documents and the communities that they represent. Dietmar Neufeld and Richard E. DeMaris bring together biblical scholars with expertise in the social sciences to develop interpretative models for understanding such values as collectivism, kinship, memory, ethnicity, and honour, and to demonstrate how to apply these models to the New Testament texts. Kinship is illuminated by analysis of the Holy Family as well as to early Christian organisations; gender through a study of Paul’s view of women; and landscape and spatiality through a discussion of Jesus of Nazareth. This book is the ideal companion to study of the New Testament.

Book Synopsis New Testament Theology and its Quest for Relevance by : Thomas R. Hatina
Download or read book New Testament Theology and its Quest for Relevance written by Thomas R. Hatina and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Testament theology raises many questions, not only within its own boundaries, but also in relation to other fields such as history, literary criticism, sociology, psychology, history, politics, philosophy, and religious studies. But, the overarching question concerns the relevance of two thousand year old writings in today's world. How does one establish what is and is not relevant in the New Testament? How does one communicate the ancient ideas, presented in an alien language, alien time, and alien culture to a contemporary audience? This book is intended to serve as a methodological introduction to the field of New Testament theology, aimed at a range of readers-undergraduate and Seminary students, clergy, and laypersons interested in the relevance of scripture. It is a guide which aims to help readers understand how practitioners of New Testament theology have wrestled with the relationship between historical reconstruction of the New Testament, and its interpretation in the modern world.

Book Synopsis The Good News of the Kingdom for a Modern World by : Elaia Luchnia
Download or read book The Good News of the Kingdom for a Modern World written by Elaia Luchnia and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-05-10 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly 2000 years ago, the Good News of the Kingdom began to be preached throughout the Mediterranean by a carpenters son, Jesus of Nazareth. His teachings restored dignity and religious freedom to all who heeded his message of hope. However, within 400 years, Christianity had lost its way and reverted back to the old ways of clergy/laity distinctions. Ecclesiastical authority brought divisions and sects, and pitted Christian against Christian. The individual disciple lost his spiritual autonomy and was relegated to a position of servitude to a church rather than as a dynamic free son of God. As a result, the Good News as Jesus conceived it has to a large extent been submerged under so much dogma. Christianity today languishes for lack of a new vision of Jesus life and the religion that he practiced. Modern man will refuse to accept a religion which is inconsistent with known facts and out of harmony with his highest conceptions of truth, beauty, and goodness. He will not acquiesce to a religion based on supers-titious bondage and religious fear. Therefore, what is needed is a new revelation of Jesus life illuminated with a new understanding of his Good News of eternal salvation. The purpose of this book is to reintroduce Jesus to mankind. The world needs new leaders, spiritual men and women who will dare to depend solely on Jesus and his incomparable teachings. Until then, worldwide harmony will continue to be the illusive dream of a hopeful minority instead of the tangible reality of a God-knowing human race. And when this Good News is preached in all the inhabited earth, the end of wickedness, sorrow, distress, and anguish will come. (Matthew 24:14)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exegesis from the year 2020 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, grade: 95, Nations University, language: English, abstract: The problem facing the modern student of the New Testament is that of application. One of the most difficult questions is how to understand the original intention of the New Testament for current human history when the material is two thousand years old. Most often students wonder whether all people are accountable to the teachings of the gospel, the New Testament in general. However, the New Testament possesses several evidences that some passages have specific application because their original audience and intended purposes are known. In this piece of work, we will highlight some ideas.

Download or read book Living Well written by Starr Tomczak and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-09-01 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In poignant reflections on iconic biblical passages, Living Well: Inspired by the Story behind the Bible draws on the latest research about the Bible’s origins to inspire the personal lives of people today. To offer meaningful guidance for daily life, Living Well shows how the biblical writers told their stories to help people in ancient times cope with problems like those in modern society. In stories from Genesis through Deuteronomy, Living Well identifies a key point of the narrative, conveys why it mattered to the people writing the story, and relates it to contemporary life. To help readers link the stories to their own circumstances, the book includes Jewish, Christian, and secular views; historical, sociological, and psychological perspectives; and personal narrative. As the author relates the stories to her life, she finds inspiration to overcome humble origins and childhood abuse, to avoid debilitating efforts to forgive destructive conduct, and to live with greater generosity. The book includes questions for personal reflection and group discussion, inviting conversations in faith communities, classrooms, and book groups.

Book Synopsis Getting the Gospels by : Steven L. Bridge
Download or read book Getting the Gospels written by Steven L. Bridge and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2004-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On March 23, 1998, director James Cameron made an indelible mark on Academy Award history. It wasn't because his film, Titanic, captured so many Oscars. Nor was it because of the movie's unprecedented box-office success. Rather, Cameron will forever be remembered in Hollywood's annals because, upon accepting his award for Best Director, he enthusiastically declared, "I am the king of the World!" Taken literally, Cameron's exclamation denotes a claim to absolute sovereignty. Understandably, public derision followed. What Cameron's critics failed to consider, however, was the premise behind his expression. The line is borrowed from Titanic. In that context, it has an altogether different meaning. Rather than self-adulation, it speaks of joy in the face of such good fortune. Undoubtedly, that is what Cameron meant to convey, but his point escaped those unfamiliar with his premise. This real-life analogy sets the stage for Getting the Gospels. As Cameron drew upon Titanic, early Christians drew similarly upon their religious and literary backgrounds to communicate their Good News of Jesus Christ. Yet without this background, modern readers may misinterpret certain Biblical texts. Getting the Gospels examines what the evangelists knew and how their presuppositions inform, enrich, and transform their writings. The book follows Jesus' life through twelve case studies selected from each of the four Gospels. Each chapter blends scholarly research and contemporary comparisons to underscore the imperative role that such premises play in the interpretation of the New Testament.
