Reconciliation by Incarnation
Author: David Worthington Simon
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Atonement
Languages : en
Pages : 424
Book Description
The central theme of this book is the reconciliation of God and man, that is, of God with man as well as of man with God. In subordination to the main theme, I have very briefly sketched, first, the cosmology which in my judgment lies behind the Scriptures and the faith of the Christian church; and second, some features of the incarnation of the Divine Word by means of which the foundation of the reconciliation of God and man was laid. - Preface.

The Vicarious Humanity of Christ and the Reality of Salvation
Author: Christian D. Kettler
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1610971663
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
In this book, the problem of the reality of salvation is addressed by T.F. Torrance's doctrine of "the vicarious humanity of Christ." Through this approach, salvation as humanization is affirmed, yet without the problems of anthropocentric theologies. This book is unique in that it offers both a survey of contemporary Christian thinking on salvation as well as a constructive alternative based on Torrance's doctrine, a significant yet neglected contribution to modern theology.

The Doctrine of the Incarnation Opened
Author: Edward Irving
Publisher: Lutterworth Press
ISBN: 0718896661
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
In The Doctrine of the Incarnation Opened, an abridgement of Edward Irving's (1792-1834) sermons, readers have fresh access to and insightful comment on Irving's distinctive views regarding the person of Jesus Christ. The book follows the sermons in a logical progression: the goal and method of the incarnation, the events of the incarnate life and the death of Christ, and the effects of the incarnation. For Irving, God the Son's assumption of a fallen human nature was of the upmost importance, and garnered most attention. This view also dominates Irving's soteriology, according to which the incarnate Son takes over the human will, reforming the very origin of sin, and offers obedience to the Father as a sacrifice of praise. Irving's radical Christological thought informed the thinking of notable theologians such as John McLeod Campbell, Thomas F. Torrance, and Karl Barth. With an introduction by G. McFarlane and a critical response by J.D. Cameron, The Doctrine of the Incarnation Opened provides an accessible format to engage with Irving's influential thoughts and ideas.

Hermeneutical Theology and the Imperative of Public Ethics
Author: Paul S. Chung
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1610975022
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 427
Book Description
"Hermeneutical Theology and the Imperative of Public Ethics is a groundbreaking attempt to present constructive missional theology in an integrative and interdisciplinary framework as it provocatively utilizes and contextualizes Reformation theology and hermeneutics concerning ethical theology embedded within the wider horizon of World Christianity. Mission as constructive theology is explored and refined in an hermeneutical and interdisciplinary fashion, underlying a new horizon of postcolonial theology and mission in light of God's act of speech. Missional church founded up God's grace of justification and Christ's diakonia of reconciliation becomes ethically oriented public church as it is engaged in mutireligious diversity of people's lives and lifeworld in the postcolonial context of World Christianity.

The Incarnation
Author: Stephen T. Davis
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 0199275777
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 431
Book Description
This interdisciplinary study follows an international and ecumenical meeting of twenty-four scholars held in New York at Easter 2000: the Incarnation Summit. After an opening chapter, which summarizes and evaluates twelve major questions concerning the Incarnation, five chapters are dedicated to the biblical roots of this central Christian doctrine. A patristic and medieval section corrects misinterpretations and retrieves for today the significance of the Council of Chalcedon (AD 451) and its aftermath, as well as clarifying Aquinas' enduring metaphysical interpretation of the Incarnation. The volume then moves to theological and philosophical debates: three scholars take up such systematic issues as belief in the Incarnation, the self-emptying that it involves, and its compatibility with divine timelessness. The remaining four essays consider the place of the doctrine of the Incarnation in literature, ethics, art, and preaching. There is a fruitful dialogue between experts in a wide range of areas and the international reputation of the participants reflects and guarantees the high quality of this joint work. The result is a well researched, skilfully argued, and, at times, provocative volume on the central Christian belief: the Incarnation of the Son of God.
