The Holy Spirit and the Reformation Legacy
Author: Mark J. Cartledge
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532695438
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
This collection of essays explores the legacy of the Reformation with regard to the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Following the five-hundredth anniversary of Luther’s posting of his ninety-five theses, these essays consider this legacy with particular reference to the work of Martin Luther and John Calvin, as well as broader Reformation themes as they are related to pneumatology and the life of the church today. The contribution of this collection is to tease out and reflect on pneumatology historically but also to relate these findings to contemporary discussions, especially among scholars of pentecostal and charismatic Christianity. Together these essays invite readers to appreciate the contribution that the Protestant Reformation makes to life in the Holy Spirit today, as well as offering critical and constructive reflection on this theme. It is a timely and significant contribution to the discussions of the person and work of the Holy Spirit and the church.

The Philosophies of Religion and Spirituality
Author: B. A. Lloyd S. Lefteruk
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1440193932
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
MORAL It is not so much that we don't know, but that we know so much that isn't so that is the cause of our problems. SUMMARY Among the most astounding recent academic discoveries is the true history of the development of man's spirituality, philosophy, and religion, and their relationship to each other. It is becoming more apparent that the Christian, Islamic, Hebrew and all other monotheistic religions of the world have the same origin and have more in common than is generally believed. Man will not achieve world peace until his religions are once again reintegrated. As brothers and sisters with one God as our father, all humanity must learn to live together and assume a sense of greater universal responsibility. Our greatest challenge today is that our new global community demands that every individual must develop a greater sense of spirituality. THEME There is a place for everything and everything has its place. Everything is as it should be. The Universe is evolving according to the will of God. It is our failure to see the good in everything, to realize the perfection in Man, God and the whole Cosmos which is the cause of our unhappiness, the source of our discontent, and at the root of our suffering. The realization of the goodness of all Creation is man's ticket to his life in a Paradise on Earth.

Fundamentalism in American Religion and Law
Author: David A. J. Richards
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139484133
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
Why, from Reagan to George Bush, have fundamentalists in religion and in law (originalists) exercised such political power and influence in the United States? Why has the Republican Party forged an ideology of judicial appointments (originalism) hostile to abortion and gay rights? Why and how did Barack Obama distinguish himself among Democratic candidates not only by his opposition to the Iraq war but by his opposition to originalism? This book argues that fundamentalism in both religion and law threatens democratic values and draws its appeal from a patriarchal psychology still alive in our personal and political lives and at threat from the constitutional developments since the 1960s. The argument analyzes this psychology (based on traumatic loss in intimate life) and resistance to it (based on the love of equals). Obama's resistance to originalism arises from his developmental history as a democratic, as opposed to patriarchal, man who resists the patriarchal demands on men and women that originalism enforces - in particular, the patriarchal love laws that tell people who and how and how much they may love.

On Nature and Grace
Author: St Augustine of Hippo
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781078330923
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 70
Book Description
Extract from Augustine's Retractions (Book II, Chapter 42): At that time also there came into my hands a certain book of Pelagius', in which he defends, with all the argumentative skill he could muster, the nature of man, in opposition to the grace of God whereby the unrighteous is justified and we become Christians. The treatise which contains my reply to him, and in which I defend grace, not indeed as in opposition to nature, but as that which liberates and controls nature, I have entitled On Nature and Grace. In this work sundry short passages, which were quoted by Pelagius as the words of the Roman bishop and martyr, Xystus, were vindicated by myself as if they really were the words of this Sixtus. For this I thought them at the time; but I afterwards discovered, that Sextus the heathen philosopher, and not Xystus the Christian bishop, was their author. This treatise of mine begins with the words: 'The book which you sent me.'"

Psychoanalysis and Theism
Author: Benjamin Beit-Hallahmi
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 0765707225
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
How should we approach the psychological study of religion, and how relevant is classical psychoanalysis, identified with the writings of Sigmund Freud, to the understanding of religion? Freud's writings on religion have been discussed often and continue to attract attention and debate. Psychoanalysis and Theism starts with an essay by Adolf Gr nbaum, one of the world's leading philosophers of science and an incisive critic of Freud's work. Gr nbaum looks at Freud's general claims about the psychological mechanisms involved in religion and finds them lacking. Then, in a surprising turn, Gr nbaum judges some of Freud's interpretations of concrete religious ideas and practices to be not only cogent, but indispensable. When it comes to the case of the belief in Virgin Birth, Gr nbaum finds an Oedipal interpretation to be our only choice. This remarkable essay is the stimulus for a symposium with nine senior scholars, coming from the fields of philosophy, psychology, sociology, and psychoanalysis, who present their critical reflections on how we should study religion, how we should treat Freud's ideas, and what the future directions in psychological research on concrete religious behavior should be. The contributors bring to this effort their varied fields of expertise, from analytical philosophy to experimental psychology. Of special interest are essays which deal with the Virgin Birth doctrine and its possible psychological sources and with the potential for future psychoanalytic studies of faith and ritual. Other essays focus on Freud's conscious and unconscious motivations for studying religion as well as the hidden biases and lacunae found in the social science literature on religious practices. This volume adds a unique combination of critical and knowledgeable voices to the debate on Sigmund Freud's legacy.
