These emanations from God produce new sounds that invariably when captured by true worshippers become the songs we arrange to communicate the heart of our heavenly Father. In this respect we sing a new song unto the Lord. Eternal Sound is a vehicle that God has created in our day to communicate the sounds of the season. They are true worshippers who do not just simply sing the song of the Lord but who have become the song that they sing.

In the nineteenth century white missionaries went to parts of Africa knowing that their life expectancy was only a few months. They came and they died and many Africans put their trust in Jesus Christ. And again God was black. In a rough-hewn, crowded shack in America, a black slave, having nothing in this life but hopelessness and chronic, bone-weary fatigue, found his release in Jesus Christ.

    An analysis of the nature, effectiveness, and reliability of the Bahnsenian method of Presuppositional Apologetics when applied to the South African context L. Taljaard 25711989 Mini-dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Magister Theologiae in Apologetics at the Potchefstroom Campus of the North-West University Supervisor: Prof Henk G. Stoker November, 2014 Abstract The debate amongst Christian apologists regarding which apologetical method is most useful, continues, and church history not only testifies to this fact, but also displays the variety of ways in which apologetics has been approached by theologians of old (Craig, et all., 2000:7). Closer analyses of the Presuppositional method of Apologetics sheds cardinal light on this debate, and offers possible conclusions and recommendations regarding the way forward for Apologetics (Bahnsen, 1998:467). The nature, effectiveness and reliability of Presuppositionalism become evident through careful analyses of the Bahnsenian method. The views of two South-African opponents of Christianity are apologetically evaluated with the Bahnsenian method. So doing, the Presuppositional method as interpreted by Bahnsen is not only proven effective, but also indispensable to the defence of orthodox Christianity also in South Africa. i Table of Contents Abstract…………………………………………………………………………………………… i List of Abbreviations……………………………………………………………………………. vi Chapter 1: Introduction……………………………………………………………………….... 1 1.1 Background……………………………………………………………..………. 1 1.2

  • CS Lewis and the True Myth: a Reconciliation of Theology
    LIBERTY UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF DIVINITY C.S. Lewis and the True Myth: A Reconciliation of Theology, Philosophy, and Mythology A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Divinity in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Divinity School of Divinity By Courage Lowrance August 21, 2018 Abstract C.S. Lewis was both a student of pagan philosophy and mythology and a Christian. He never was divided between these two pursuits in his life, though he gave the latter its proper priority. What allowed Lewis to keep this balance was his idea of the gospel as the True Myth, an idea that helped lead to his conversion and remained at the core of his thinking throughout his life. By this idea of True Myth, Lewis was able to not only unite the pagan myths to Christian truth, but also the rest of human thought as well. Thus, in order to understand the nature of this key idea in Lewis’s thinking, this paper outlines what Lewis thought of mythology in general as a human phenomenon that bears explaining. The way in which Lewis saw mythology is analyzed in the first chapter according to the categories of the nature, the origin, and the function of mythology. In the second chapter, Lewis’s thoughts concerning the idea of the True Myth itself are considered. That various dichotomies of thought were united in Lewis’s mind by receiving this new idea is demonstrated. After this, the third chapter shows how Lewis’s thought fits in with historic and Evangelical orthodox Christian theology.

  • The Jew of Celsus and Adversus Judaeos Literature
    ZAC 2017; 21(2): 201–242 James N. Carleton Paget* The Jew of Celsus and adversus Judaeos literature DOI 10.1515/zac-2017-0015 Abstract: The appearance in Celsus’ work, The True Word, of a Jew who speaks out against Jesus and his followers, has elicited much discussion, not least con- cerning the genuineness of this character. Celsus’ decision to exploit Jewish opinion about Jesus for polemical purposes is a novum in extant pagan litera- ture about Christianity (as is The True Word itself), and that and other observa- tions can be used to support the authenticity of Celsus’ Jew. Interestingly, the ad hominem nature of his attack upon Jesus is not directly reflected in the Christian adversus Judaeos literature, which concerns itself mainly with scripture (in this respect exclusively with what Christians called the Old Testament), a subject only superficially touched upon by Celsus’ Jew, who is concerned mainly to attack aspects of Jesus’ life. Why might this be the case? Various theories are discussed, and a plea made to remember the importance of what might be termed coun- ter-narrative arguments (as opposed to arguments from scripture), and by exten- sion the importance of Celsus’ Jew, in any consideration of the history of ancient Jewish-Christian disputation. Keywords: Celsus, Polemics, Jew 1 Introduction It seems that from not long after it was written, probably some time in the late 240s,1 Origen’s Contra Celsum was popular among a number of Christians. Eusebius of Caesarea, or possibly another Eusebius,2 speaks warmly of it in his response to Hierocles’ anti-Christian work the Philalethes or Lover of Truth as pro- 1 For the date of Contra Celsum see Henry Chadwick, introduction to idem, ed.

  • Distribution and Seasonal Movements of the House Sparrow
    Bird-Banding 2o] NICHOLS,Distribution of theHouse Sparrow January DISTRIBUTION AND SEASONAL MOVEMENTS OF THE HOUSE SPARROW By Joun T. N•cuoLs Fi•oM January, 1930, to October, 1933, 450 House Sparrows were banded at Garden City, New York. Adult House Sparrowsare notoriouslytrap-shy, seldomrepeating or return- ing. Such scattering repeats and returns as there have been to date do not, in themselves,prove much as to the local move- ments of the species. However, adults were banded on the right leg, and recog- nizably young birds on the left leg, thus dividing the popula- tion into six groupseasily recognizableat the trapping station by sight. The varying proportionsof these groupspresent by observationare shownin percentagesin Table 1. We will begin by summarizing the most obvious and best groundedconclusions based on this table: (1) Young birds as a class leave the trapping station im- mediately if they are strong on the wing and independent of their parents. Their leaving seemsto be due to lack of place memory, correlated with a general lack of memory which causesthem to repeat much more freely than the adults. It is not that they are crowded out by the adults or seek a differ- ent environment,for at the sametime the proportionof birds of the year at the station rises, as would be expectedat that season. It is rather a matter of chance,with a drifting popula- tion, chancewhich will later bring a small proportion of them back to the station again. (2) The proportion of banded adult males at the trapping station has risen rapidly since 1930 with continued banding, and is subjectto wide seasonalfluctuations, which can only be explained by a more or less regular return of birds from out- side to the station.
