Priesthood and Diaconate
Author: Gerhard Ludwig MŸller
Publisher: Ignatius Press
ISBN: 0898708923
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
Pope John Paul II's apostolic letter,ÊOrdinatio Sacerdotalis, confirmed that conferring Holy Orders on men only is a matter pertaining to divine revelation that has consistently been taught by the universal and ordinary Magisterium of the Church, and hence is to be definitively held by all the faithful. Thus, the Church's practice is not a concession to the customs of an age, but is founded upon a theology of the sexes, which is based on the relationship of man and woman originating in creation itself. This relationship is sanctified to the utmost in the Sacrament of Matrimony, as the concrete symbol of God's love for mankind. God's own self-communication is inscribed in this marital consecration when Christ, being the representative of the Father, presents himself as the Bridegroom of the Church, his Bride. Furthermore, this spousal relationship between Christ and the Church is reflected in the Sacrament of Holy Orders and the male recipient's relation to the Church, which stands in relation to him as a feminine reality. This book thoughtfully explores the Church's understanding of the ministerial priesthood and the diaconate.

Priesthood
Author: Kenan Osborne
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1592443117
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
Well written and well presented, Father Osborne's book is a solid overview of the history of the sacrament of holy orders not only for Roman Catholic clergy, but for clergy throughout the Christian world. It will help all of those in ministry to understand the relationships between laity and clergy more deeply, and it carefully delineates the deeper theological significance of women in ministry. By considering the ordained ministry from the standpoint of Jesus as the primordial minister, 'Priesthood' enhances the multiple nature of ministry in ecumenical dialogues of our contemporary world, making them less intransigent. With the extensive discussion on ministry today, 'Priesthood' is a welcome, timely and necessary contribution.

Episode Lightnine: The Parody Awakens Set far too many years after Burn of the Deadeye, this stunningly bad, action-strapped adventure ships us back to the same tired world of Incest Playa Orgasma, Ham Salad, Mattie the Nookie, Seized Throw-Up, UFVD2?, Lute Litesabre, and trappist Monk Admiral Ack-Ack, while introducing us to a whole host (because half a host is just a ho) of exciting new characters, including Stray, who is having a ball with OCD the new druid, Flipper the Scorn Trup, Captain Plasma Rifle, and Hilo Mudi, son of Salad, leader of the Knights Who Say "Re", and who works for his boss Tokémon, this trilogy's flavor for overlord. Darpa Caper may have been redeemed at your local World-mart for purchase price since he fell apart, but even when the entire evil empire has been totally trashed, it can still rise from the trashes and launch a brand new fleet and a massive army in only two decades, without anybody noticing, let alone caring. Is it too late to stop yet another mortal disaster (from the Latin for 'Death Star') taking place in less than a trilogy? Yes!
