THE EXPOSITORY TIMES 37 Copyright © 2004 SAGE Publications and Contributors ARTICLES A Major Difference between Law and Faith, in Luke and his Traditions Y By PROFESSOR JOHN J. KILGALLEN, SJ, SSD Pontifical Biblical Institute, Rome NE of the more precise accusations against faith in Jesus, not on obedience to the central system Stephen in Acts (Acts 6:14) is that he said of Jewish existence. It is faith, not the Law that turns Othat Jesus would change the ‘customs’ of the unclean into the forgiven. Israel – ‘customs’ being another way of referring to In the Cornelius story, faith purified so that God the (Mosaic) Law; eventually this ‘change of customs’ was no longer at enmity with, but was friend of the will turn to ‘customs unnecessary for salvation’, as believers. God manifested this purifying faith to Peter some insisted that gentiles, together with baptism, and others by giving to Cornelius the gift of tongues, keep the Law in order to be saved. The problem a gift from God’s Holy Spirit, thus signifying holiness of how Christianity would relate itself to the Law here. Thereupon Cornelius must be baptized, for, as continued in Acts till the major instruction of Peter’s Peter protests, ‘Who am I to obstruct the clear will speech, Acts 15. With his speech in that chapter, Peter of God?’ (Acts 11:17). Peter’s reference to ‘them resolves the debate about the necessity that the as to us’ refers to the Spirit manifested in the gift gentile converts be circumcized and made to practice of tongues, understood to expand itself into the the Law – for salvation. The ultimate reason for Spirit’s gift of prophecy in the case of Peter and his Peter’s urging was that ‘God, who knows all hearts, companions (Acts 2). witnessed on behalf of the gentiles (Cornelius and his From the above account, developed over a household) by giving them the Holy Spirit as He had number of chapters in Acts, one sees the relationship: given the Spirit to us, and His purifying their hearts purifying faith in Jesus is saving faith, to be saved one by faith (in Jesus) shows that He made no distinction needs nothing else but faith in Jesus; such faith results between us and them’ (Acts 15:8–9). in the Holy Spirit of God, a sure sign of God’s favour Faith, then, cleanses hearts, makes ‘all things on behalf of the believer. Finally, in the Cornelius clean’; in Peter’s experience faith also is witnessed story, which is the basis in Acts 15 for the decision to by the gift of tongues and, at Pentecost, the gift about gentiles forever, we note that the Holy Spirit of prophecy; God would not share His Spirit with plays a particular role: the Spirit gives the outward the unclean of heart. We have already read Luke’s sign of the internal relationship between God and story about Cornelius and noted particularly how, Cornelius. just at the mention of the name of Jesus Saviour, the After Peter’s speech, James proposes that gentile Spirit descended on the gentiles and they spoke in Christians stay away from certain practices, but the tongues (Acts 10:43–44). The astonishment of the basis for this proposal is concern for harmonious circumcized Jewish Christians at this marvel suggests unity between Jewish and gentile Christian. The four not only that they were marvelling that God was matters he identifies are not to be practised because present, but that God was sharing Himself with they are necessary for salvation – faith in Jesus alone people uncircumcized, people who are unclean. By is necessary for salvation – but out of love for Jewish referring to the fact of the Cornelius episode, Peter Christians. in Chapter 15 argues (as he had in his own way in In this way, Acts argues that the Law (including Chapter 11) that the salvation of gentiles depends on circumcision) is no longer what causes salvation. 38 THE EXPOSITORY TIMES THE EXPOSITORY TIMES 39 There are, however, other things to be said. First, unity between the burgeoning Samaritan church and at the same meeting in which Peter spoke his historic the established Jerusalem church and its Apostles; words, Paul and Barnabas related their experiences, Peter and John, as ‘elder authorities’ mean to show summed up for us in Acts 13 and 14. Second, the this solidarity, this ecclesiality. But that purpose does gift of tongues or of prophecy certainly shows the not answer the question about the role of the Holy presence of God’s Spirit, but that is a transient Spirit here, ‘in order that they may receive the Holy presence, meant for convincing or, in the case of Spirit’. If not for mission or for prophecy, to what end Pentecost, meant for giving revelation to listeners. is the Spirit most profoundly given and enjoyed? As for the experiences of Paul and Barnabas, there Acts 2:38 follows upon two ‘imperatives’: repent, is a notable silence in Acts 13 and 14 in regard be baptized. Thereafter, you will receive the Holy to the question: of those who believed in Jesus, Spirit. Again, to what end are these converts given was it necessary for their salvation that they obey the Holy Spirit? Not that they will prophesy, not the Law? That silence, however, means ‘no’; that that they will be inspired to further the mission. silence, when added to what Peter says in Acts 15, Here, better than in Acts 8:15 (the understanding of becomes further proof that gentile Christians were which depends on our having read Acts 2:38 first), being saved by faith, not by Law. As for the gifts of one has no impression that the Spirit is a transitory prophecy and speaking in tongues, one recognizes gift or a sporadic mover of mission. Rather, if one the roles they play in the forwarding of mission that goes to the end of Chapter 2 (the logical end of the is so central to Acts; Acts was written to show how Pentecost experience), one reads there, not prophecy the disciples were witnesses to Jesus in Jerusalem, in or mission, but of actions that befit a holy person. Judaea and Samaria, and to the ends of the world Indeed, idealized or not, this behaviour of the Jewish and the occasional gift and cause of mission at key Christians is the fullest living-out of the Law ever moments served that inexorable movement. Can one seen in Old and New Testaments. To what is that life find evidence of the Spirit’s presence in Acts 13 and owed? If Luke offers us any help in identifying this 14? One might point out that Barnabas and Saul presence of the Spirit, let Luke 1:35 be our guide: here had been sent to the activities of these chapters by holiness is caused by the Holy Spirit. Thus, a role the Spirit (Acts 13:1–3), but beyond that, one can of the Spirit in Acts, though not often mentioned, is only look in vain for reference to the Spirit in the not transitory, but indwelling: the Spirit makes one missionizing of Acts 13–14; no gifts of the Spirit are holy. mentioned here. Thus, the Spirit’s activity is indeed When one thinks of the Spirit in this way, one only occasional and to a certain degree ‘external’, sees that the holiness bestowed by the Spirit is really and this type of presence is what one comes to expect the culmination of faith in Jesus, that faith necessary as one reads on in Acts.

  • Pre-Industrial Swansea: Siting and Development
    34 PRE-INDUSTRIAL SWANSEA: SITING AND DEVELOPMENT Gerald Gabb Abstract This article is an investigation of what, in the eleventh or twelfth century, drew its founders to the location where Swansea grew up, why their successors remained there, and how and why the settlement developed the form it did. Starting with the Norse origins of Swansea followed by its Norman developments, the article draws on what limited evidence is available, including archaeological evidence from recent excavations. The article considers the importance of Swansea’s topography as a trading port and discusses some of its important medieval buildings, including the castle and major churches. This article is an investigation of what, in the eleventh or twelfth century, drew its founders to the location where Swansea grew up, why their successors remained there, and how and why the settlement developed the form it did. It addresses data from at least seven centuries, across which continuities figure strongly. Even when John Evans published his ‘Plan of Swansea’ in 1823 the area of the town had only crept a little beyond the perimeter of the town walls of the fourteenth century.1 Industrialization was soon to trigger rapid expansion, but what follow are some thoughts on the slower changes which came before that. Two things should be borne in mind. In any study of this sort, direct evidence is minimal. To adopt the technique of reductio ad absurdum for a moment, there is no extant report made by a steward to the first lord of Gower, Henry, Earl of Warwick, on the best place for his caput castle and town, nor, and this is less ludicrous, a burgess minute from the 1640s on where the new market house should go.

  • The Ascension of Christ: Its Significance in the Theology of T
    THE ASCENSION OF CHRIST: ITS SIGNIFICANCE IN THE THEOLOGY OF T. F. TORRANCE1 David Fergusson, D.Phil., F.R.S.E. University of Edinburgh [email protected] It has sometimes been remarked that the two most formidable personalities of British theology in the twentieth century were Donald MacKinnon and Tom Torrance. In an obituary notice, John Webster spoke of the theological intensity of Torrance being matched only by the bleak genius of MacKinnon.2 They displayed many similarities — the rigor of their scholarship, wide-ranging erudition, a commitment to the traditions of the church, and theological seriousness. In other respects, however, MacKinnon and Torrance functioned quite differently. MacKinnon’s infuence was probably most keenly felt through the example of his teaching. He shaped a generation of theologians, especially during his Cambridge years, through the questions he tackled, the commitments he displayed, and a searching interrogative method that resisted any easy or bland closure to intractable problems. Torrance was no less demanding, but I would udge that his longer-term infuence on the discipline has been facilitated more by his publications than his teaching. Having been somewhat eclipsed in the years after his retirement, his work in the last decade has attracted renewed attention from a younger generation of scholars, particularly in North America and Asia. The success of the T. F. Torrance Theological Fellowship and its electronic journal are indicators of the growth of interest. This has been further facilitated by the posthumous publication of two large volumes 1 Lecture delivered to the T.F. Torrance Theological Fellowship at the American Academy of Religion in Atlanta, November, 2010.

The aim has been to show which ancient parish (and where possible, modern ecclesiastical parish) each is in, with details of which local authority it has been part of over the years, which estates owned land in the area, and its location. Locations are given in two ways. The abbreviation NGR has been used for National Grid Reference, which is given correct to 1km. The Ordnance Survey County Series sheet is also given; see the keysheets on the next few pages. In addition, the ancient parish and, where relevant, the parish division, are also given for each place described. This should make it possible to locate each place on the tithe map, as well as superseded and current Ordnance Survey maps at a scale of 1:2500.

    Integrated Medium Term Plan (IMTP) 2020 - 2023 1 | P a g e Welcome to the Penderi Cluster IMTP 2020 – 2023 Section 1 Executive Summary Welcome to the Penderi Cluster Plan 2020-2023 which highlights the Cluster vision and priorities and how we will achieve them over the next 3 years. The Cluster has made great strides forward in tackling the ‘prevention’ agenda and has developed new and innovative ways of working that have reaped benefits in terms of supporting practice sustainability and addressing the Quadruple Aims outlined in Welsh Government’s A Healthier Wales (2018). The Cluster has come a long way over the past 6 years. We have taken an innovative, preventative approach to supporting children & families by developing and testing a new model of working in partnership with the Local Authority. The ‘Primary Care Child and Family Wellbeing Service’ takes a holistic approach to supporting children and families experiencing mental health issues and developmental delay in the family home. The model proved so successful in the Penderi that it has been rolled out to a further two clusters in Swansea. This ‘upstream’ approach has demonstrated improved wellbeing outcomes for children and their families..I am delighted to say that the project has won an NHS award in the ‘Improving Health and Wellbeing ‘category Other innovative projects that have been supported within the Cluster include: the Penderi Young People’s Project that supports 11-25 year olds with their emotional and mental health. Carers Helpdesks have been introduced working collaboratively with Swansea Carers Centre. The practices in the Penderi Cluster are piloting the West Glamorgan GP Carers accreditation scheme.
