Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Some Christians may be uncomfortable to think of Jesus as being political, since the word 'politics' or 'political' has evolved to have negative overtones and connotations in our world today, particularly in Africa, where this monograph from the Department of Theology and Religious Studies of the University of Malawi has originated. Christians often argue that their commission or job description does not include the political process, which is the way a society conducts its public affairs. However Jesus, beginning with his temptation as in the gospels of Matthew and Luke, showed the people who would follow him what it means to do God's will. The third temptation, conceived of in this study as a political temptation for power, is the rational behind the arguments made in this study, which begins by positing that the message of Jesus was not politically neutral and therefore Christianity, as a super culture must be active in all sectors affecting social concerns, if it is to truly be the change agent who Christ believes it to be. It goes on to define and describe what it means to say that the message of Jesus was political and lays out the biblical, theological, ethical, and experiential rationale for Christians' active participation in the secular political arena.…

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 428 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | The second annual conference of the Theological Society of Malawi was held at the historic Ekwendeni Campus of the University of Livingstonia from 14 to 16 September 2021. It took up the urgent theme of the decolonization of the theological curriculum. Though Malawi has been an independent country for 58 years, coloniality still stalks the land. This book calls theologians to take a lead in decolonization, while navigating the educational task in an online age. With more than twenty institutions teaching theology at tertiary level in Malawi, and now united in the Theological Society of Malawi, there is huge potential to learn from each other in developing the theological curriculum in the country. While the primary audience is unashamedly a Malawian one, this book might also prove relevant in other contexts where there is a reckoning with past and present experience of colonialism. The book is a call to action and is published in the hope that it will have lasting impact on the teaching and learning of theology in Malawi and beyond.…

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 448 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | This book argues for the use of Old Testament ethical principles in entrenching constitutionalism in democratic Malawi. This posture is against the background of the already existing sections 12 and 13 of Malawi's Constitution which have moral underpinnings. Using the theories of Divine Command and Deontology, the study discusses ten critical Old Testament ethical principles and elucidate why and how they can be used to entrench constitutionalism in Malawi. The study demonstrates that the giving of the law to Israel was God's model for (codified) national constitutions, aiming at envisioning and entrenching constitutionalism through the principle of justice which apparently, is the heartbeat of the Old Testament ethics and morality. Therefore, to some extent, constitutionalism in Malawi can be entrenched by pursuing justice and protecting its integrity. Very relevant is the study's emphasis that the Decalogue is a Magna Carta for human rights and freedoms. Pertinent also is the scriptural analysis which shows that the threefold nature of government is intrinsically theological as the study's findings demonstrate. These Old Testament study findings show that no one, not even the president, is above the law-thus demonstrating limited governmental powers, separation of powers, accountability, respect for human rights, and rule of law where everyone is under the law and correctable by it. The study's original contribution is in its demonstration that Old Testament ethical principles are the foundation of constitutionalism by showing the theological basis of constitutionalism's tenets of limited government, separation of powers, rule of law, human rights, and accountability. Consequently, the original contribution of this study to the academia is its blending of theological and jurisprudential discourse on good governance based on Old Testament ethical principles and moral values in entrenching constitutionalism in Malawi.…
