Epistles of St Paul
NOTES ON EPISTLES OF ST PAUL FROM UNPUBLISHED COMMENT ARIES. ~ • • • NOTES ON EPISTLES OF ST PAUL FROM UNPUBLISHED COMMENTARIES BY THE LATE J. B. LIGHTFOOT, D.D., D.C.L., LL.D., LORD BISHOP OF DURHAM. PUBLISHED BY THE TRUSTEES OF THE LIGHTFOOT FUND. lLonbon: MACMILLAN AND CO. AND NEW YORK. 1895 [All Rights reserved.] i!tambribgc : PRINTED BY J. & C. F. CLAY, AT THE UNIVERSITY PRESS. INTRODUCTORY NOTE. HE present work represents the fulfilment of the under T taking announced in the preface to 'Biblical E~says' a year and a half ago. As that volume consisted of introduc tory essays upon New Testament subjects, so this comprises such of Dr Lightfoot's notes on the text as in the opinion of the Trustees of the Lightfoot Fund are sufficiently complete to justify publication. However, unlike 'Biblical Essays,' of which a considerable part had already been given to the world, this volume, as its title-page indicates, consists entirely of unpublished matter. It aims at reproducing, wherever possible, the courses of lectures delivered at Cambridge by Dr Lightfoot upon those Pauline Epistles which he did not live to edit in the form of complete commentaries. His method of trustiqg to his memory in framing sentences in the lecture room has been alluded to already in the preface to the previous volume. But here again the Editor's difficulty has been considerably lessened by the kindness of friends who were present at the lectures and have placed their note books at the disposal of the Trustees. As on the previous occasion, the thanks of the Trustees are especially due to W. -

February 11, 2018 Mingling of the Body and Blood of Christ!
February 11, 2018 Mingling of the Body and Blood of Christ! Last Saturday, I received the following comment after the 5 pm Mass, "Father, I enjoyed reading your explanation of the mixing of the water and wine during the preparation of the gifts. I’ve noticed this hundreds of times but never understood it. I didn’t know that the priest was praying a silent prayer at that time. That prayer is quite inspirational. I now understand that the wine represents Jesus and the water represents us. This strengthens my understanding of our communion with Christ at Mass. I have also noticed that while we sing the Lamb of God, the priest, after breaking the host, places a small piece of the host into the Chalice. Can you explain why he does this?” My answer was simple, “At that very moment, the priest says another silent prayer: ‘May this mingling of the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ bring eternal life to us who receive it.’” This is a powerful moment at Mass. I’d like to share with you an explanation of it found in Edward Sri’s book, A Biblical Walk Through The Mass: Understanding what we say and do in the Liturgy. In chapter 23, Agnus Dei: The Fraction, Commingling and the "Lamb of God", Sri says, "The ritual known as the commingling was used at one time to express the unity of the Church. In Rome, the pope had a small particle of the consecrated host, called the fermentum (Latin for leaven), sent to priests in the city, who placed it in their chalices as a sign of their union with the Bishop of Rome. -
ABSTRACT in the Early Nineteenth Century, the Church
ABSTRACT In the early nineteenth century, the Church of England faced a crisis of self- understanding as a result of political and social changes occurring in Britain. The church was forced to determine what it meant to be the established church of the nation in light of these new circumstances. In the 1830s, a revival took place within the Church of England which prompted a renewal of the theology and practice of the church, including the Eucharist. This revival, known as the Oxford Movement, breathed new life into the High Church party. A heightened emphasis was placed on the sacramental life and on the Eucharist as the focus of worship. Adherents of the Oxford Movement developed a Eucharistic theology which promoted a closer connection between the elements and Christ’s presence in the Eucharist than did the earlier Anglican tradition. One of the exponents of this Eucharistic theology was Robert Isaac Wilberforce (1802- 1857). The second son of anti-slavery crusader William Wilberforce, Robert was raised in a family of prominent Anglican Evangelicals. At the University of Oxford he came under the influence of his tutor, John Keble, who was one of the four leaders of the Oxford Movement during its heyday. The Gorham case, whose focus was ostensibly the question of baptismal regeneration, turned into a debate on the state’s control over the established church. Robert 1 Wilberforce was called upon to articulate the sacramental theology of the Oxford Movement, which he did in his three major works, The Doctrine of Holy Baptism: With Remarks to the Rev. -
The Eucharistic Ecclesiology of Nicolas Afanassieff: Prospects and Challenges for Contemporary Ecumenical Dialogue
The Eucharistic Ecclesiology of Nicolas Afanassieff: Prospects and Challenges for Contemporary Ecumenical Dialogue By Richard R. Gaillardetz One of the most fruitful theological developments to emerge out of the Second Vatican Council is the exploration of the concept of communion as a foundation for contemporary eccesiology.1 Indeed, the concept of communion or koinonia, has become an increasingly central category within ecumenical dialogues.2 Many are unaware, however, of how much this ecclesiology of communion owes to an earlier ecclesiological trajectory, the eucharistic ecclesiology of Nicolas Afanassieff, a Russian Orthodox theologian who effected an ecclesiological renewal within Orthodoxy and indirectly influenced much of the renewal in Roman Catholic ecclesiology reflected in the documents of Vatican II. In this article we wish to reconsider the twentieth century origins of this eucharistic ecclesiology in the writings of Afanassieff and its contributions to contemporary ecclesiology and ecumenical relations between East and West. In the first part of this essay I will explore the origins and influences on Afanassieff's thought followed by a sketch of its defining features. This will be followed by a second section which will critically assess his eucharistic ecclesiology and explore its potential for both the renewal of ecclesiology in Roman Catholicism and the furthering of ecumenical dialogue between East and West. I. Nicolas Afanassieff and Eucharistic Ecclesiology A. Afanassieff's Theological Sources A proper understanding of Afanassieff's ecclesiology requires that we look first to the theological milieu in which he developed his thought. While the majority of his career before his death in 1966 was spent at the St. -

The Revd Mattijs Ploeger, M.A, studied at the Theological Faculty of Leiden University and the Old Catholic Seminary at Utrecht University (the Netherlands). Additionally he spent five months at the Anglican theological college Westcott House, Cambridge (United Kingdom), where the present text was written. In 1999 he was ordained to the diaconate and the presbyterate in the Old Catholic diocese of Haarlem (the Netherlands), where he serves as a parish priest. Fr Matt is a member of several ecumenical liturgical organisations in the Netherlands and is preparing a dissertation on liturgical/eucharistic ecclesiology at Utrecht University. He has published articles in the Dutch liturgical journal Eredienstvaardig and in the Old Catholic theological quarterly Internationale Kirchliche Zeitschrift. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author wishes to express his gratitude to the Archbishop of Utrecht, the Most Revd Dr Antonius Jan Glazemaker, and the Bishop of Haarlem, the Rt Revd Dr Jan-Lambert Wirix- Speetjens, who allowed him to study at the Anglican theological college of Westcott House, Cambridge, during Easter Term and the summer of 1998. -

GRACE THROUGH THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST…………………… 21 1 INTRODUCTION The phenomenal growth of devotion to the Real Presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist has puzzled not a few sincere people. Nocturnal Adoration societies, Perpetual Adoration groups, national associations of the faithful promoting organized visits to the Blessed Sacrament, Holy Hours before the tabernacle, monthly, weekly and even daily exposition of the Eucharist in churches and chapels, in one country after another, have become commonplace. What to make of all of this? Is this another form of pious eccentricity, or is it founded on authentic Catholic doctrine and grounded on the solid rock of Christian revelation? It is authentic Catholic doctrine and it rests on the unchangeable truth of our revealed faith. But it needs to be explained, and the explanation is a classic example of what we call development of doctrine. -
John Wesley's Eucharist and the Online Eucharist

Abstract Since the late 20th century information technology has changed the lives of individuals and relationships at local, nation and even global levels. In particular the internet is used by many religious groups for theological and spiritual purposes. Some parts of Christianity have confronted the issue of how to deal with the use of internet. As a result, an internet church has emerged, offering Eucharistic services online across the globe. Even though the numbers of internet churches/Eucharistic groups have sharply increased in the last two decades, the attitude of the established churches does not appear to have taken account of this change yet. To achieve this it is necessary for such initiatives to be guided by certain theological norms or church regulations. This may relate to the definition of church, Eucharistic theology, or how to deal with emerging cultures. -
Worship in Fifth-Century Rome: the Letter of Innocent I to Decentius of Gubbio (Cambridge: Grove Books Limited, 2002)
Paul Turner: The Amen Corner 3-30-15 The Amen Corner: Between Consultation and Faithfulness: Questions That Won’t Go Away Paul Turner In the year 3615 AD, on the 1600th anniversary of the appearance of this article, perhaps English will be a dead language. Perhaps it will take specialized scholars to read these words in the original. Perhaps no print copy of this journal will have survived the moistures of time, and even electronic copies will have yielded to more durable forms of storage. Perhaps certain words in my vocabulary will be difficult to understand. Perhaps the religious and socio- political scene from which I write will be dimly grasped. It doesn’t take much humility to admit that anything I write would provoke scant interest 1600 years later. So I tip my cap to the early fifth-century bishop of the picturesque Umbrian see of Gubbio, a city that gave its name to the ancient Eugubine Tablets discovered there, and where Francis of Assisi legendarily tamed a menacing wolf. The bishop’s letter has been lost, but his name still bestrides the reply composed by the reigning pontiff. This coming March 19, a rare confluence of the Feast of St. Joseph and the Saturday of Palm Sunday weekend, will mark the 1600th anniversary of the Letter of Pope Innocent I to Decentius of Gubbio. To this day, the letter still influences liturgical practice and ecclesial authority. Robert Cabié translated and commented upon the critical edition he prepared: La Lettre du Pape Innocent Ier a Décentius de Gubbio (19 Mars 416), Bibliotèque de la Revue d’Histoire Ecclésiastique, Fascicule 58 (Louvain: Publications Universitaires de Louvain, 1973). -
Liturgical Notes for Lent & Holy Week
Liturgical Notes for Lent & Holy Week By The Rev. Matthew Hoxsie Mead The first day of Lent is Ash Wednesday. The Ash Wednesday liturgy features Readings from Scripture, the Litany of Penance, the Blessing and Ministration of Ashes, and the Holy Eucharist. Ironically, the Ashes are optional and simply an outward sign of what goes on at the service. That said, they are a traditional sign of penance, and also a sign that though we are mortal, we partake in Christ’s resurrection. Lent isn’t technically 40 days. To get to 40 you have to exclude Sundays. The number 40 mirrors the 40 days that Jesus spent in the wilderness, which in turn mirrors the 40 years the Israelites spent in the wilderness. The Church settled on 40 days of fasting and prayer, and excluded Sundays since they were and are Feasts of Our Lord and not fasts. The BCP 1979 notes that there are two major Fasts (with a capital F no less) in the year: Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. The rest of Lent is listed simply as “observed by special acts of discipline and self denial” – or in shorthand, fasts (with a little f). Purple or “Lenten Array” vestments are worn during Lent. We actually have sets of each type of vestments at Christ Church. Lenten Array sets feature off-white, almost oatmeal colored, vestments. In order to use as many of our sets as possible, we will wear purple in Lent in 2016, and we will use the Lenten Array set on Maundy Thursday (the traditional liturgical color for Maundy Thursday is white).
