Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The doctrine of the Trinity was settled in the fourth century, and maintained, with only very minor disagreement or development, by all strands of the church--Western and Eastern, Protestant and Catholic--until the modern period. In the twentieth century, there arose a sense that the doctrine… had been neglected and stood in need of recovery.In The Quest for the Trinity, Holmes takes us on a remarkable journey through 2,000 years of the Christian doctrine of God. We witness the church's discovery of the Trinity from the biblical testimony, its crucial patristic developments, and medieval and Reformation continuity. We are also confronted with the questioning of traditional dogma during the Enlightenment, and asked to consider anewthe character of the modern Trinitarian revival.Holmes's controversial conclusion is that the explosion of theological work in recent decades claiming to recapture the heart of Christian theology in fact deeply misunderstands and misappropriates thetraditional doctrine of the Trinity. Yet his aim is constructive: to grasp the wisdom of the past and, ultimately, to bring a clearer understanding of the meaning of the present.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'I am putting my words as a fire in your mouth; these people are tinder and it will consume them.' (Jeremiah 5:14)In the book of Jeremiah, not only is the vocabulary of 'word' and 'words' uniquely prevalent, but formulae marking divine speech also play an unprecedented role in giving the book…'s final form its narrative and theological shape. Indeed, 'the word of the Lord' is arguably the main character, and a theology that is both distinctive and powerful can be seen to emerge from theunfolding narrative.In this stimulating study, Andrew Shead examines Jeremiah's use of word language; the prophet's formation as an embodiment of the word of God; his covenant preaching and the crisis it precipitates concerning the recognition of true prophecy; and, in the 'oracles of hope,' how the power of the word of God is finally made manifest.Shead then brings this reading of Jeremiah to bear on some issues in contemporary theology, including the problem of divine agency and the doctrine of Scripture, and concludes by engaging Jeremiah's doctrine of the Word of God in conversation with Karl Barth. The prophet's major contribution emerges from his careful differentiation of 'word' and 'words.'Addressing key issuesin biblical theology, the works comprising New Studies in Biblical Theology are creative attempts to help Christians better understand their Bibles. The NSBT series is edited by D. A. Carson, aiming to simultaneously instruct and to edify, to interact with current scholarship and to point the way ahead.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What does Paul's missions strategy mean for today A century ago Roland Allen published Missionary Methods: Saint Paul's or Ours , a missiological classic which tackled many important issues, including what biblically rooted missions lookslike in light of the apostle Paul's evangelistic effort…s. Although Allen's work is still valuable, new understandings have been gained regarding Paul's milieu and missionary activity, and how his practices ought to inform missions in our ever-changing world.Using the centennial anniversary of Allen's work as a springboard for celebration and reflection, the contributors to Paul's Missionary Methods have revisited Paul's first-century missionary methods and their applicability today. This book examines Paul's missionary efforts in two parts. First Paul is examined in his first-century context: what was his environment, missions strategy and teaching on particular issues The second part addresses the implications of Paul's examplefor missions today: is Paul's model still relevant, and if so, what would it look like in modern contexts Experts in New Testament studies and missiology contribute fresh, key insights from their fields, analyzing Paul's missionary methods in his time and pointing the way forward in ours.Contributors include- Michael F. Bird- Eckhard J. Schnabel- Benjamin L. Merkle- Christoph W. Stenschke- Don N. Howell Jr.- Craig Keener- David J. Hesselgrave- Michael Pocock- Ed Stetzer- M. David Sills- Chuck Lawless- J. D. Payne.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Preaching's Preacher's Guide to the Best Bible ReferenceAn Expansive Old Testament Resource You Can TrustHow can we account for the 'Book of the Law' suddenly being discovered during Josiah's renovation of the temple (2 Chron 34:14) We know from Egypt and Mesopotamia that it was common to seal impor…tant documents-including theological documents-in the masonry or foundations of a palace or temple in order to inform a future king who might undertake restoration of the building.What might the psalmist have had in mind when praising God for removing our transgressions 'as far as the east is from the west' (Ps 103:12) In an Egyptian hymn to Amun-Re, the deity is praised for his judgment of the guilty. As a result of the god's discernment the guilty are assigned to the east and the righteous to the west.What is meant by God 'weighing the heart' (Prov 21:2) In Egyptian religious tradition we find the notion of the dead being judged before the gods. As the soul is examined, the dead person's heart is weighed in a scale against a feather symbolizing Truth. If the answers are correct and the heart does not outweigh the feather, the soul may enter the realm of everlasting life.The narratives, genealogies, laws, poetry, proverbs and prophecies of the Old Testament are deeply rooted in history. Archaeologists, historians and social scientists have greatly advanced our knowledge of the ancient world of the Bible. When we illuminate the stories of Abraham or David, the imagery of the Psalms or Proverbs, or the prophecies of Isaiah or Jeremiah with this backlight of culture and history, these texts spring to new life. The unique commentary joins The IVP Bible Background Commentary: New Testament in providing historical, social and cultural background for each passage of the Old Testament. From Genesis through Malachi, this single volume gathers and condenses an abundance of specialized knowledge, making it available and accessible to ordinary readers of the Old Testament. Expert scholars John Walton, Victor Matthews and Mark Chavalas have included along with the fruits of their research and collaboration- a glossary of historical terms, ancient peoples, texts and inscriptions- maps and charts of important historical resources- expanded explanations of significant background issues- introductory essays on each book ofthe Old TestamentThe IVP Bible Background Commentary: Old Testament will enrich your experience of the Old Testament-and your teaching and preaching from Scripture-in a way that no other commentary can do.
