Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As the psalms are a microcosm of the Old Testament, so the Expositions of the Psalms can be seen as a microcosm of Augustinian thought. In the Book of Psalms are to be found the history of the people of Israel, the theology and spirituality of the Old Covenant, and a treasury of human experience expressed in prayer and poetry. So too does the work of expounding the psalms recapitulate and focus the experiences of Augustine's personal life, his theological reflections and his pastoral concerns as Bishop of Hippo."--Publisher's website.

Book Synopsis Methodologies in Systematic Theology by : Louis Roy
Download or read book Methodologies in Systematic Theology written by Louis Roy and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-06-21 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers eager to seek an improved understanding of the Good News, this book provides a way of better construing the Christian message. It begins with the church fathers, continues with the medieval thinkers, and covers modernity's doubters who published critiques of faith and elaborated new conceptions of faith. It thus surveys the various theological methods that were employed over two thousand years of Christian experience. The principal theologians and philosophers that are presented here are Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Schleiermacher, Lonergan, Ricœur, Congar, and Geffre. The author also presents several modern authors' nuanced assessments of historicity, which fashioned and are still fashioning a large variety of cultures. This sense of history has allowed scholars to appreciate both the particular and the permanent in religious studies that convey meanings. The originality of the author of this volume consists in combining a competence in systematic interpretations with an expertise in pastoral theology. In addition, readers will find in these pages a living ecumenical dialogue characterized by correct construals of those "others" whose understandings of religion may appear as contradicting one's own views.

Book Synopsis Hearers and Doers by : Kevin J. Vanhoozer
Download or read book Hearers and Doers written by Kevin J. Vanhoozer and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The foundation of discipleship is sound, scriptural doctrine. The value of sound doctrine is often misunderstood by the modern church. While it can be dry and dull, when it flows from the story of Scripture, it can be full of life and love. This kind of doctrine, steeped in Scripture, is critical for disciple-making. And it's often overlooked by modern pastors. In Hearers and Doers, Kevin Vanhoozer makes the case that pastors, as pastor- theologians, ought to interpret Scripture theologically to articulate doctrine and help cultivate disciples. scriptural doctrine is vital to the life of the church, and local pastor-theologians should be the ones delivering it to their communities. With arresting prose and striking metaphors, Vanhoozer addresses the most pressing problems in the modern church with one answer: teach sound, scriptural doctrine to make disciples.
Book Synopsis Free for Christ: Religious Obedience and Thomistic Moral Theology by : Mother Mary Christa Nutt, R.S.M.
Download or read book Free for Christ: Religious Obedience and Thomistic Moral Theology written by Mother Mary Christa Nutt, R.S.M. and published by Emmaus Academic. This book was released on 2024-08-01 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is it about the practice of obedience to God that makes it significant for human happiness and sanctity? And how should the obedience proper to vowed religious life be understood relative to the responsibilities of conscience and personal freedom? In the present day, religious obedience is often viewed either as a negative cramping of personal autonomy by an external authority, or as a positive submission to law that somehow assures one’s fidelity, but the common thread for both perspectives is a distinctly modern approach to obedience characterized by legalism and voluntarism. In Free for Christ, Mother Mary Christa Nutt, R.S.M., proposes a different approach to religious obedience that foregrounds virtue-based moral agency rooted in metaphysics and the mystery of God, examining obedience not simply in relation to commands and laws but as a spiritual, philosophical, and theological reality—one that situates the human person in relation to God, the Church, and those others who share this religious life. Taking her starting point from Thomas Aquinas, Nutt examines obedience as a dimension of prudence and worship, that is, as a way that the human being can become relative to God as first source and final end, and thus as a way that the grace of Christ can take deeper root as a path to authentic freedom and interiority. From this ground of Thomistic metaphysics and ethics emerges a theological anthropology of obedience closely tied to Aquinas’s teaching on providence and religion.
Book Synopsis The Same God Who Works All Things by : Adonis Vidu
Download or read book The Same God Who Works All Things written by Adonis Vidu and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2021-03-04 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical Trinitarianism holds that every action of Trinity in the world is inseparable. That is, the divine persons are equally active in every operation. But then, in what way did the Father create the world through Christ? How can only the Son be incarnate, die, and be resurrected? Why does Christ have to ascend before the Spirit may come? These and many other questions pose serious objections to the doctrine of inseparable operations. In the first book-length treatment of this doctrine, Adonis Vidu takes up these questions and offers a conceptual and dogmatic analysis of this essential axiom, engaging with recent and historical objections. Taking aim at a common “soft” interpretation of the inseparability rule, according to which the divine persons merely cooperate and work in concert with one another, Vidu argues for the retrieval of “hard inseparability,” which emphasizes the unity of divine action, primarily drawing from the patristic and medieval traditions. Having probed the biblical foundations of the rule and recounted the story of its emergence in nascent Trinitarianism and its neglect in modern theology, Vidu builds a constructive case for its retrieval. The rule is then tested precisely on the battlegrounds that were thought to have witnessed its defeat: the doctrines of creation, incarnation, atonement, ascension, and the indwelling of the Spirit. What emerges is a constructive account of theology in which the recovery of this dogmatic rule shines fresh light on ancient doctrines.

Book Synopsis The Christ of the Apocalypse: Contemplating the Faces of Jesus in the Book of Revelation by : Msgr. A. Robert Nusca
Download or read book The Christ of the Apocalypse: Contemplating the Faces of Jesus in the Book of Revelation written by Msgr. A. Robert Nusca and published by Emmaus Road Publishing. This book was released on 2018-06-30 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That the Apocalypse of John is a “Revelation of Jesus Christ” (Rev 1:1) is a fact too often overlooked by interpreters of this last book of the Bible. As Msgr. A. Robert Nusca’s The Christ of the Apocalypse: Contemplating the Faces of Jesus in the Book of Revelation proposes, beyond predictions of earthquakes and falling stars, St. John articulates from start to finish a multifaceted and compelling portrait of Jesus Christ. Nusca offers an exegetical reading of selected verses of the Book of Revelation, incorporating rich spiritual and pastoral reflections. The Christ of the Apocalypse above all affirms that St. John’s God- and Christ-centered, symbolic universe offers our contemporary world a spiritual place to stand amid the shifting sands of postmodernity. As Cardinal Thomas Collins, Archbishop of Toronto, writes in his Foreword, “Now, as in the first century, Christians face martyrdom, and those who are not called to die for Christ are called to live for Christ in a world which in many ways rejects the Gospel. More than ever, we need the apocalyptic vision, to have our own vision of reality clarified, and to be strengthened in our evangelical witness.”
Book Synopsis Augustine’S Spirit-Soul Analogy by : Gabriel Mendy
Download or read book Augustine’S Spirit-Soul Analogy written by Gabriel Mendy and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-08-29 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Fr. Dr. Mendy offers us a provocative insight into communion ecclesiology by indicating the relationship between the presence of spirit in both a person's body and in the Church. His text informs and invites us to deepen our understanding of Theological Anthropology and Ecclesiology in an interrelational mode. Most importantly, Mendy brings to bear a more "African" understanding of Spirit which stretches and expands traditional western views." Prof. George Worgul, Professor Duquesne University "Gabriel Mendy's book represents a significant contribution to Pneumatology by being rooted in the tradition of the Church, in dialogue with contemporary theologians, Catholic authoritative statements, and the African context. Those interested in recent developments in Pneumatology, the dialogue between Church Fathers and modernity, as well as issues of inculturation, will find Mendy's book extremely captivating." Dr. Radu Bordeianu, Associate Professor, Duquesne University
