Book Description
Christian theology in recent decades has seen an explosion in the number of books published seeking a renewal of Trinitarian ontology. There has also been a proliferation of studies dedicated to the theology of Wisdom. Few if any of these books on the Trinity or on Wisdom have drawn for inspiration on the comprehensive vision of French Oratorian priest Louis Bouyer (1913–2004), one of the greatest theologians of the modern age. Bouyer produced a comprehensive work of theology that integrated these two seminal concerns based on a vast “re-sourcing” of the Christian tradition. Dr. Keith Lemna explores Bouyer’s achievement in depth, showing that at the heart of his venture was a deep, contemplative penetration into God’s mediation to the world—his creation, sustenance, and redemption of creation in the Wisdom of the Eternal Son. Bouyer is a decisive resource for theologians wanting to develop the Christian understanding of the Trinity and creation based on tradition but in dialogue with modern cosmological thought. The Trinitarian Wisdom of God: Louis Bouyer’s Theology of the God-World Relationship gets to the heart of Louis Bouyer’s theology of the God-World relationship more deeply than any other has done before. In doing so, Lemna recovers a great theologian at his best.

Meditation on the Divine Legitimacy of Man
Author: Bogdan J. Wnuk
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1441576827
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
Meditation is the result of departing from and returning to Christianity. It is about tasting again the “salt” of Jesus’ teachings and rejoicing in imitating him, in our eternal life, which, for us “christians”, begins down here, on earth, and will continue on in heaven... The Catholic Church, which I served, as an altar boy from the age of 6 to the age of 18, made me a legalistic “robot” with little or no free will. I was engulfed in guilt and despair that I will never amount to anything good spiritually. One day, I quit trying to become a “good” catholic and went on a journey of discovery of other more “attractive” religions... only to find along the way that Jesus is the way!

Classifying the Divine
Author: Racheli Shalomi-Hen
Publisher: Otto Harrassowitz Verlag
ISBN: 9783447043229
Category : Book of the dead
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
In recent years, cognitive aspects of the Egyptian writing system were studied, and the importance of the determinatives as category makers and as a reflection of the ancient Egyptian mind, was re-alised. This study offers a fresh look at the divine determinatives and the category they form. It focuses on a group of five divine determinatives in Spell 335 of the Coffin Texts and Chapter 17 of the Book of the Dead. After discussing the transmission and themes of the texts as well as theories of categorisation, the author proceeds to analyse the 'divine category' which the five divine determinatives form. By identifying its prototypical members and by examining the relations between words and their divine determinatives, this book provides some crucial and thought provoking insights into the Ancient Egyptian perception of the divine, and is an important contribution to the understanding of the organisation of knowledge in general. The book concludes with a collation table that displays all the references to words written with divine determinatives in the texts, including hieroglyphic presentation of all the different variations of these words.

God or the Divine?
Author: Bernhard Nitsche
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 311069834X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 528
Book Description
Is there a language of transcendence which does not fall under the well-worn categories of monism, theism, pantheism, biblical or pagan monotheism, personal or tripersonal God, or an impersonal absolute, conceived as immanent and/or transcendent? The present set of studies from different fields of research centers on the question whether it is possible to speak at all of transcendence or a divinity, and if it is, under what limitations does such speech proceed. In current discussion in theology and in philosophy of religion, there is a pervasive awareness that the inherited terms and alternatives, developed in the western tradition, no longer facilitate an adequate understanding of the divine. Increasing familiarity with the languages of ‘immanence’ and ‘transcendence’ (under erasure) in Hindu and Buddhist thought has further jumbled our coordinates, while holding out the promise of a more subtle and vital engagement with the matter itself of religious inquiry. A further long-established distinction, between ‘personal’ and ‘impersonal,’ also takes on rich new hues in Asian contexts, where the very notion of ‘person’ may undergo unsettling critiques. Transgressing the categories of ‘personal’ and ‘impersonal’ points to the mystical depth of religious traditions, emphasizes their openness and reintegrates essential elements of both perspectives. Advancing with curiosity and caution, all the contributors take seriously the diversity of historical religious traditions, while nevertheless searching for a fresh language that may connect these traditions and provide a common ground of understanding.
