  • Comparative Ecclesiology: Roger Haight’S Christian Community in History for Evangelical Resourcement Justin L
    Journal of Biblical and Theological Studies JBTSVOLUME 4 | ISSUE 2 Comparative Ecclesiology: Roger Haight’s Christian Community in History for Evangelical Resourcement Justin L. McLendon [JBTS 4.2 (2019): 317–333] Comparative Ecclesiology: Roger Haight’s Christian Community in History for Evangelical Resourcement JUSTIN L. MCLENDON Justin L. McLendon is Assistant Professor of Theology at Grand Canyon University and Grand Canyon Theological Seminary in Phoenix, Arizona. Introduction Due in part to its late arrival within systematic theological loci, ecclesiology remains fertile soil for wide-ranging investigative inquiries from academic scholars and thoughtful clergy.1 Paul Avis, doyen of academic ecclesiology, positions the discipline in the forefront of modern theological attention, even claiming, “during the past couple of centuries, ecclesiology became a major theological discipline; today, at the beginning of the twenty-first century of the Christian era, it is at the heart of theological research and debate.”2 Ecclesiology lies at the heart of modern theological dialogue because the identity, purpose, and power of the church are inextricably connected to all other biblical and theological emphases. One can hardly discuss any salient aspect of Christianity without acknowledging its connection to the church as God’s people, or explain in some sense how God uses this eschatological people as the conduit through which he presently engages human history.3 As research progresses to analyze global ecclesiological phenomena or specific issues within any longstanding church tradition, debates will persist as interlocutors grapple with multiform critiques and proposals.4 Broadly speaking, contemporary theological works fall within two approaches. One approach is decidedly categorical and/or descriptive.

  • Is the Church the Extension of the Incarnation? Mark Saucy*
    JETS 43/2 (June 2000) 193–212 EVANGELICALS, CATHOLICS, AND ORTHODOX TOGETHER: IS THE CHURCH THE EXTENSION OF THE INCARNATION? MARK SAUCY* The nature of Christ’s relationship to the Church and the Church’s role in salvation have been points of dispute among the Christian traditions since the days of the Protestant Reformation.1 Recent gatherings of evangelicals, Cath- olics, and Orthodox for dialogue indicate that questions of ecclesiology will continue to command attention for dialogue to proceed fruitfully. Of particular interest in the current context are indications of an openness from some evan- gelicals to the usual Catholic and Orthodox charge of being weak in ecclesi- ology. One evangelical, for example, re˘ecting on his own encounter with Orthodoxy states, “. it is understandable that evangelicals feel that the Or- thodox doctrine of the church is too ‘high.’ But perhaps our theology of the church is too ‘low,’ much lower than our Protestant forebears would have it.”2 At the heart of the issue for “high” and “low” ecclesiologies is the inter- pretation of the apostle Paul’s words to the Corinthian believers in 1 Cor 12:27, “. you are Christ’s body.” Typically Protestants take the body image to be a metaphor not unlike the other images the NT uses to discuss the nature and function of the Church. As Paul’s favorite metaphor for the Church, the body image particularly illuminates the grand Pauline theme of Christ’s union or communion with his Church.3 Catholics and Orthodox, by contrast, see 1 Cor 12:27 as more than mere metaphor and particularly as a simple statement of reality proving that the relationship of the Church and Christ * Mark Saucy teaches systematic theology at Kyiv Theological Seminary, 75 Gorlivska, Kyiv, Ukraine, 253091, and other theological institutions in Eurasia.

A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin December 2016 ABSTRACT CREATOR SPIRIT, SPIRIT OF GRACE: TRINITARIAN DIMENSIONS OF A CHARITOLOGICAL PNEUMATOLOGY Wesley Scott Biddy, B.A, M.A., Th.M. Marquette University, 2016 This dissertation takes up the question of the link between the creative and the redemptive work of the Holy Spirit. It presents creation as ordered to redemption and redemption as the completion of creation, especially for human beings. On the understanding of the relationship between the two orders of the Spirit’s activity proposed here, creation is of a piece with redemption and is therefore an operation of grace just as the latter is. I ground my depiction of the Spirit’s role in both aspects of the divine economy in an account of her role within the immanent Trinity. Indeed, this dissertation focuses primarily on the nature of the Spirit’s eternal relation to the other two persons of the Godhead, which is the foundation of her work in the world.

  • Knox-Robinson Ecclesiology”
    ATR/102.1 Ecclesia as Gathering Only? Evaluating the Use of Scripture in Proposals of the “Knox-Robinson Ecclesiology” C. Ryan Fiel ds* Broughton Knox and Donald Robinson, Sydney Anglicans serving and writing in the second half of the twentieth century, offered various theological proposals regarding the nature of the church that stressed the priority of the local over the translocal. The inter- dependence and resonance of their proposals led to an association of their work under the summary banner of the “Knox-Robinson Ecclesiology. ” Their dovetailed contribution offers in many ways a compelling understanding of the nature of the ecclesia spoken of in Scripture. In this paper I introduce, summarize, and evaluate the Knox-Robinson ecclesiology with a particular eye to Knox’s and Robinsons use of Scripture in authorizing their theological proposals. I argue that while they provide an important corrective to the inflation of the earthly translocal dimension of the church, they are not ultimately persuasive in their claim that the New Tes- tament knows only the church as an earthly/heavenly gathering. Keywords: Broughton Knox, Donald Robinson, Knox-Robinson ecclesiology, ecclesiology, Sydney Anglicanism, local church, uni- versal church, use of Scripture In 1948, a young Donald Robinson met with the ecclesiological reflections of the inestimably influential theologian Karl Barth, an en- counter that was to affect Robinson s understanding of the church for the remainder of his career. Barth had presented a paper at the * The Reverend C.

  • Phillip Jacob Spener's Contribution to Protestant Ecclesiology
    Phillip Jacob Spener's Contribution to Protestant Ecclesiology Author: Dennis McCallum Introduction In 1666 a young pastor was called to become the head Lutheran pastor in Frankfurt am Main. He was well educated, holding the Doctor of Theology from the University of Strassbourg, and he had some strong notions that would soon galvanize Europe into another surge of reforming zeal-- eventually reaching millions in every corner of the globe. The pastor's name was Philip Jacob Spener. Nine years into his first pastorate, Spener would set forth his call for reform in the Lutheran church in a forward to a collection of sermons by Johannes Arndt. The title of the introduction was Pia Desideria, (Pious Desires) and within weeks this remarkable little tractate set off an astounding reaction throughout most of Europe.1 Modern members of primitive New Testament-style churches will quickly recognize several important themes in this tract, which have stirred strong sentiments today, as they have throughout church history. These ideas include the need for small meetings in the local church that will allow the re-introduction of the inter-active style of koinonia described in I Cor. 14, the need for the laity to learn the Bible and use it, the necessity of congregational review of the public teacher's positions, a vigorous critique of the institutional church and others. It is the purpose of this paper to identify the key themes of Spener's theology, focusing in the area of ecclesiology. Then, a further attempt will be made to understand the connection between Spener's ecclesiological position and those streams that gave rise to it, as well as those that flowed out from it.

  • The Bible Riots, the Church Question, and Evangelical Theology Alexander Campbell, Charles Hodge, and John Williamson Nevin on the True Church
    The Bible Riots, The Church Question, and Evangelical Theology Alexander Campbell, Charles Hodge, and John Williamson Nevin on the True Church by Lane Madison Scruggs A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Wycliffe College and the Graduate Centre for Theological Studies of the Toronto School of Theology. In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Theology awarded by Wycliffe College and the University of Toronto © Copyright by Lane Madison Scruggs 2018 The Bible Riots, The Church Question, and Evangelical Theology: Alexander Campbell, Charles Hodge, and John Williamson Nevin on the True Church Lane Madison Scruggs Doctor of Theology Wycliffe College and the University of Toronto 2018 Abstract This dissertation begins by examining the ecclesiology of three prominent theologians of the American antebellum period. Alexander Campbell, Charles Hodge, and John Williamson Nevin were all Scotch-Irish Presbyterians by birth who self-consciously moved in disparate theological directions over the course of the early 19th century. Tracing the diverging paths of these thinkers with regard to their understanding of the nature and organization of the Church, this work aims to show the ecclesiological diversity among antebellum evangelicalism and challenge some of the historiographical and theological assumptions of this period. From this inductive study, an ecclesiological typology is constructed through the use of Campbell, Hodge, and Nevin as prototypes of the individual ideal types. This typology is then brought into conversation with three contemporary examples of 21st-century evangelical theology, using the Missional Church movement, The Gospel Coalition, and the Federal Vision. This cross-century comparison is an attempt to test the thesis that contemporary evangelical ecclesiology – despite its repeated claims – is not doing anything new, but instead it finds itself inhabiting the same ecclesiological types evident in the antebellum period.
