Book Synopsis Jesus and Myth by : Peter John Barber
Download or read book Jesus and Myth written by Peter John Barber and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Jesus mythological? And is he a mere product of his cultural milieu? Through narratological and social-scientific analysis of the gospel account, Barber systematically demonstrates that there are two opposing patterns structuring the gospel. The first is the pattern of this world, which is the combat myth, with a typical sequence of motifs having mythological meanings. It is lived out by everyone else in the accounts except Jesus, because this pattern of the world is the pattern of myth-culture, which is the pattern of the old Adam and sin nature. The pattern of Jesus is the pattern intended for Adam to walk in, and is the unique pattern of the new Adam, Jesus Christ. Jesus's pattern inverts the sequence and subverts the significance of each and every motif and episode of the myth-culture's pattern. Barber shows that Jesus's "failure" to conform to this world's mythological pattern establishes that he is not mythological, and not a product of his culture. As the apostle Peter states, ". . . we did not follow cleverly devised tales [myths] when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty" (2 Pet 1:16).
Book Synopsis Institutionalization of Authority and the Naming of Jesus by : Yolanda Dreyer
Download or read book Institutionalization of Authority and the Naming of Jesus written by Yolanda Dreyer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-01-25 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the names given to Jesus by those followers responsible for putting his words and deeds into writing-the earliest "Christian scribes." In the first-century Mediterranean world, the first name of male person was his proper name. The second name indicated the family or clan to which he belonged, whereas the third name was an "honorary title" bestowed on him because of some achievement, good fortune, physical attribute, or "special excellence." Honorary titles were bestowed on Jesus mostly after his death. Such titles were often given to sages. The titles could either amplify Jesus' wisdom and empower people, or serve as instruments of power. This book aims to demonstrate the ideological and political mystification of Jesus in the transmission of the tradition about him. It illustrates the relevance of --The social history of formative Christianity; --The evolution of the Jesus traditions; --The genre of the gospels as biography; and --The institutionalization of charismatic authority.
Book Synopsis Jesus in a World of Colliding Empires, Volume Two: Mark 8:30–16:8 and Implications by : Mark J. Keown
Download or read book Jesus in a World of Colliding Empires, Volume Two: Mark 8:30–16:8 and Implications written by Mark J. Keown and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the time of Christ, world politics was an ebb and flow of colliding empires and forces. The world knew only dynastic succession and rule by force. Israel was swept up in this world. Her expectations of deliverance, while diverse, had in common the anticipation of violent liberation by an alliance of God, the expected one (Theo), and Israel's forces. Her vision included the subjugation of the world to Yahweh. Any messianic claimant would be expected to fulfill this hope. Mark's story of Jesus must be read against such expectations of military power. Mark knows that Jesus' plan of salvation differed radically from this. Rather than liberation through revolution, it involved deliverance through humble, loving service and cross-bearing. However, the disciples follow Jesus but do not understand Jesus' purpose. They constantly expect war. So, the Gospel is then read from Mark's full understanding and the disciples' flawed perspective. In this first volume of Jesus in a World of Colliding Empires, Keown backgrounds Mark and the political situations of the world at the time. He then unpacks Mark 1:1--8:29 as Jesus seeks to show the disciples he is Messiah while drawing out the deep irony of their incomprehension.

This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the time of Christ, world politics was an ebb and flow of colliding empires and forces. The world knew only dynastic succession and rule by force. Israel was swept up in this world. Her expectations of deliverance, while diverse, had in common the anticipation of violent liberation by an alliance of God, the expected one (Theo), and Israel’s forces. Her vision included the subjugation of the world to Yahweh. Any messianic claimant would be expected to fulfill this hope. Mark’s story of Jesus must be read against such expectations of military power. Mark knows that Jesus’ plan of salvation differed radically from this. Rather than liberation through revolution, it involved deliverance through humble, loving service, and cross-bearing. However, the disciples follow Jesus but do not understand Jesus’ purpose. They constantly expect war. So, the Gospel is then read from Mark’s full understanding and the disciples’ flawed perspective. In volume two of Jesus in a World of Colliding Empires, Keown continues to unpack Mark‘s Gospel (8:30–16:8), in which Jesus teaches the disciples what it means to be a Servant Messiah rather than a military conqueror. The then draws a range of conclusions and applications from Mark for life today.

Book Synopsis A Theology of Disagreement by : Christopher Landau
Download or read book A Theology of Disagreement written by Christopher Landau and published by SCM Press. This book was released on 2021-05-30 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even the most casual contemporary observer of Christianity must recognise that the notion of Christian community being identifiable through the mutual love of its members (John 13:35) is difficult to reconcile with the schismatic reality of current ecclesial life. Nonetheless, disagreement remains an ethical subject neglected by theologians. A Theology of Disagreement: New Testament Ethics for Ecclesial Conflicts examines how New Testament texts inform Christian approaches to disagreement. Drawing on New Testament themes, the book explores the nature of an ethic of disagreement, and its practical implications for the church’s public theological witness, as well as its liturgy
Book Synopsis The New Gospel of the Kingdom According to Saint Mark by : Minister Bennie Earl Jenkins
Download or read book The New Gospel of the Kingdom According to Saint Mark written by Minister Bennie Earl Jenkins and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-11-19 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an exciting, concise, and complete presentation of the gospel of the kingdom. It is an insightful update and upgrade of the gospel of the kingdom according to Saint Mark, which is the shortest of the four gospels. Many are trying to spread the gospel of the kingdom by providing lost souls copies of the whole Bible. This is like giving a hungry baby a porterhouse steak to eat. Of course, the baby cannot handle it. Others pass out tracts or pamphlets, which fail to give our Savior all the credit for all he has done. This work gives the whole story of his life, teachings, sacrifice, and victory over death. It will be a powerful tool for those dedicated to spreading the gospel of the kingdom to all nations. The goal of this book is to bring reverence, respect, and honor to the name of our Lord and Savior. It lifts him as our king in Earth as he will be lifted as King of kings in Heaven. It uses his Hebrew name and identifies him as King Yeshua. Several years ago, someone asked, "Why do you Christians obey and worship someone who is at most a Jewish Rabbi?" Sadly, there was no satisfactory answer for him. A careful study of the four gospel reveals that none of them directly identifies the Savior as a king. The wise men recognized his royalty at his birth, when they presented him royal gifts and worshipped him. Finally, at his crucifixion in defiance of his enemies, Pilate recognized his kingship at his death. His enemies did everything they could to deny his kingship. This book gives him the crown they did not want him to have. It acknowledges his kingship and refuses to let them win. No, we do not obey and worship a Jewish Rabbi. We obey and worship King Yeshua, who is the Son of God, the King of kings, the malik Almuluk, Wan wang Zhi wang, Hari ng mga Hari, Roi des Rois, Konig der Konige, Raja'o no raja, raajaon ke raja, O no nakanoo, wang jung wang, rei dos reis, Korol' Koroley, Rey de Reyes, raja raja, Mfalme wa Wafalme, and vua cua cac vi vua yenegesitati nigusi. He is King of kings.
