Book Synopsis Understanding Prayer for the Dead by : James B Gould
Download or read book Understanding Prayer for the Dead written by James B Gould and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 2017-08-31 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history, Christians have prayed for the dead - both for continual growth of the faithful and for their advancement from purgatory, and sometimes, even, for the deliverance of the unsaved from hell. Understanding Prayer for the Dead defends all three kinds of prayer. It challenges Protestants, who seldom pray for the dead, to begin doing so - and Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox, who pray only for the Christian dead, to include the unsaved as well. James B. Gould addresses the biblical credentials of prayer for the dead and provides a historical overview of such prayers from ancient Christianity to the current practice of the three main branches of the Church. He also discusses the logical assumptions prayer for the dead requires - that prayer is effective, that the dead are conscious, and that the afterlife involves change - and lays out a theological framework for such prayers. Prayer for the departed raises the most basic of theological questions, matters that go to the centre of God's purpose in creating spiritual beings and redeeming sinful humankind. The argument, while revisionary in some respects, is orthodox, ecumenical, and integrative, engaging a range of academic disciplines so as to be biblically accurate, historically informed, and philosophically reasoned.

Book Synopsis Practicing Prayer for the Dead by : James B. Gould
Download or read book Practicing Prayer for the Dead written by James B. Gould and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-11-04 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history Christians have prayed for the dead. This book challenges Protestants, who seldom pray for the dead, to begin doing so, and Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox, who pray only for the Christian dead, to include the unsaved as well. Gould discusses the meaning of prayer for final consummation of all things, growth of the blessed in heaven, purification of the imperfect in purgatory, and salvation of the unsaved in hell--identifying the necessary conception of the afterlife required by each particular prayer. He also reflects on the spiritual value of prayer for the departed--how it enhances faith, builds hope, and sharpens discipleship--and provides some sample prayers for public liturgy and private devotion. In essence, Practicing Prayer for the Dead offers an outline of theology from the perspective of death, arguing that prayer for all the departed is one aspect of a tightly knit web of doctrines. The argument, while revisionary in some respects, is orthodox, ecumenical, and integrative, engaging a range of academic disciplines so as to be biblically accurate, historically informed, and philosophically reasoned.

Download or read book Why Do We Pray for the Dead? written by John Anthony O'Brien and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Why Do We Pray for the Dead?: The Reasons for the Church's Belief in Purgatory Why do Catholics pray for the dead is a question frequently asked by our non-catholic fellow citizens. Since the practice of praying for the souls of the deceased is based upon the doctrine of Purgatory which was abandoned by the Reformers in the sixteenth century, and is now prao tically unknown among their fol lowers, the latter are naturally at a loss to understand the Catholic cus tom of praying for their departed brethren, or as it is commonly, called, the devotion to the poor souls.
