Book Synopsis On Justification Through Faith - Theological Commonplaces by : Johann Gerhard

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About This Volume On Justification through Faith defines faith as a God given gift that knowledge, trust, and assent that apprehends Christ. In this way, faith is the instrumental cause of justification, where Christ is the meritorious and material cause of the same. This faith is a judicial term, apprehending Christ and receiving a change of status before God from villainy to sonship. Gerhard also argues that true, justifying faith cannot be separated from love and other virtues. In other words, faith alone justifies, but true faith is never alone. Gerhard expands on the role of virtue and action in the Christian life in his paired volume On Works. About This Series The Theological Commonplaces series is the first-ever English translation of Gerhard's monumental Loci Theologici. Gerhard was the premier Lutheran theologian of the early seventeenth century. Combining his profound understanding of evangelical Lutheran theology with a broad interest in ethics and culture, he produced significant works on biblical, doctrinal, pastoral, and devotional theology. Gerhard interacts with the writings of the church fathers, Luther and his contemporaries, and the Catholic and Calvinist theologians of his day. His 17-volume Loci is regarded as the standard compendium of Lutheran orthodoxy, with topics ranging from the proper understanding and interpretation of Scripture to eschatology. Useful for research on Lutheran doctrine, Gerhard's accessible style makes this a must-have on the bookshelf of pastors and professional church workers. Each embossed hardback volume includes the translation of Gerhard's Loci (originally published from 1610 to 1625) - a glossary of key theological, rhetorical, and philosophical terms - a name index - a Scripture index - a carefully researched works cited list that presents guidance for deciphering the numerous abbreviations of the other titles from which Gerhard quotes.

Book excerpt: In On Justification by Faith, the latest relase in the English translation of Gerhard's Theological Commonplaces, Gerhard defines justification in regard to Calvinism and the Christian life.

Book Synopsis On Good Works - Theological Commonplaces by : Johann Gerhard
Download or read book On Good Works - Theological Commonplaces written by Johann Gerhard and published by Concordia Publishing House. This book was released on 2019-09-30 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James 2:17 tells us, "Faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead." When Christians feel obligated to do good works, they are crushed by the Law. It is only through viewing good works as part of God's Gospel promise that doing good works is a joyous expression of one's faith. In this new addition to the Theological Commonplaces series, we learn Gerhard's teachings about the etymology and synonyms of the phrase "good works"; the divisions, cause, forms, purpose, necessity, perfection, and merits of good works; second justification through works; and the loss of faith through sins.

This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the first of a two-part work that evaluates the teaching of justification by faith from the early church to modern times in light of the Scriptures and the ministry of Watchman Nee and Witness Lee. Part 1 begins with a thorough presentation of the evaluative standard by which the authors will measure the teachings of the various Christian traditions. Then, following a historical overview of justification by faith in the major traditions, they proceed to give a detailed assessment of the doctrine as taught in the patristic era, in the medieval era, and by Martin Luther at the inception of the Protestant Reformation. The volume aims to point out the shortcomings and contributions of the first 1,500 years of the church’s teaching on justification by faith and to offer a fresh understanding of this foundational truth of the Christian faith.

Book Synopsis The Doctrine of Justification by : James Buchanan
Download or read book The Doctrine of Justification written by James Buchanan and published by Ravenio Books. This book was released on 2013-02-17 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Buchanan (1804–1870) was a Scottish minister and theologian. He joined the Free Church of Scotland in 1843, and succeeded Thomas Chalmers as professor of systematic theology at the New College of the Free Church in Edinburgh in 1847, a post he held for twenty-one years. Buchanan's magnum opus was The Doctrine of Justification, which still has great value as a classic treatment of the article by which Martin Luther says the church stands or falls. He covers biblical, systematic, and historical ground in his work, but is never far from a warm-hearted evangelical delight in the doctrines he is expounding.
Book Synopsis Justification by the Word by : Jack D. Kilcrease
Download or read book Justification by the Word written by Jack D. Kilcrease and published by Lexham Academic. This book was released on 2022-09-21 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God's Word creates what he commands In Justification by the Word, Jack D. Kilcrease reintroduces Martin Luther's key doctrine. Though a linchpin of the Reformation, Luther's view of justification is often misunderstood. For Luther, justification is an expression of God's creative Word. To understand Luther on justification, one must grasp his doctrine of the Word. The same God who declared "let there be light"—and it was so—also declares "your sins are forgiven." Justification is an objective reality. It is achieved in Christ's resurrection and received through an encounter with the risen Christ in Word and sacrament. Justification turns us outward, away from our own unsteady feelings and limited understanding, to look to Christ. And the church must preach justification, lest we so easily forfeit the joy of the gospel. Justification by the Word inspires readers to reencounter the radical doctrine of justification by faith alone.

Download or read book Justification written by Eberhard Jüngel and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2006-06-10 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This significant work, precipitated by the Lutheran-Roman Catholic Joint Declaration on the doctrine of justification, represents Eberhard Jüngel's most sustained theological writing for some time. Jüngel examines the role of justification in Christian faith - and emphasises its central importance. He traces the history of the concept of 'justice' in Greek thought, and of the Old Testament parallel concept 'righteousness'. He then moves on to a consideration of the righteousness of God in its Christian context, and in particular to God's righteousness in Christ. A major contribution to theological discussion is found in his fresh and fearless treatment of the unfashionable topic of sin. Throughout the work, Jüngel constantly interacts with the great Catholic and Protestant thinkers, his skill as a theologian matched by his insight as a philosopher.

Book Synopsis The Gospel of Justification in Christ by : Wayne Stumme
Download or read book The Gospel of Justification in Christ written by Wayne Stumme and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 31 October, 1999, exactly four hundred and eighty-two years after Martin Luther nailed his ninety-five theses to the church door in Wittenberg, the Roman Catholic Church and the Worldwide Lutheran Federation signed a historic joint declaration on the doctrine of justification. Recent agreements between Lutheran, Reformed, and Episcopalian churches have also expressed a shared commitment the doctrine of God's grace in Christ. But what does it mean for churches today? Persuaded that the "doctrine" of justification is also "gospel" -- the good news of life in Christ -- the contributors to "The Gospel of Justification in Christ" engage broadly with this crucial doctrine, addressing such topics as the unity of the Church, justification's relation to social justice, and its significance for interfaith dialogue.
