  • Analysis of Justice in St. Augustine's Political Philosophy and Nigerian
    International Journal of Education and Human Developments, Vol. 6 No 2; July 2020 ISSN 2415-1270 (Online), ISSN 2415-1424 (Print) Published by Center for Global Research Development Analysis of Justice in St. Augustine’s Political Philosophy and Nigerian Political System ONUCHE, Joseph PhD. Department of Philosophy Kogi State University Anyigba, Kogi State Nigeria Abstract St Augustine of Hippo (354-430CE) is the most influential Christian philosopher in western Christianity after Paul the Apostle. This paper analyses justice in Augustine‟s political philosophy as contained in His „City of God‟. It will be argued that, we could learn from his answers to bad politicking which resulted in destruction of State. His answers on various theological and philosophical issues have continued to be relevant in modern theological and philosophical debate. A lot can still be learnt from him even in the area of Church‟s response to bad governance. Augustine‟s argument is that Kingdoms (Countries, nations) without justice are robberies, as Kings (Governors) of such are robbers. This supposition is illustrated with three historical allusions namely: the encounter of Alexander the Great with a Pirate, the establishment of Roman Empire by Romulus, and the establishment of Assyrian Empire by Ninus. Contextually, Nigeria as it is today falls into this category of robberies as the British colonial masters forced this unequal union for their personal, self-seeking and self-interest, to satisfy their libido dominandi. An analysis of what Augustine meant by justice will be carried out. Philosophically, Augustine evaluated justice from Neo-Platonic background and theologically from Pauline concept of justice.

  • Freedom from Passions in Augustine
    UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI FACULTY OF THEOLOGY FINLAND FREEDOM FROM PASSIONS IN AUGUSTINE Gao Yuan 高 源 ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Theology at the University of Helsinki in Lecture Hall 13, University Main Building, on 4 November 2015, at 12 noon Helsinki 2015 ISBN 978-951-51-1625-3 (paperback) ISBN 978-951-51-1626-0 (PDF) Copyright © Gao Yuan (高源) https://ethesis.helsinki.fi/en Cover: Wang Rui and Gao Yuan Juvenes Print Oy Helsinki 2015 ABSTRACT This study presents a general overview of Augustine’s insights into passions as well as his approach to the therapy of emotions and their sanctification. Attending to various phases of his writings, this work explores the systematic structure of Augustine’s tenets on passions and on the freedom from passions in the context of his philosophical and theological convictions on the issue of amor sui and amor Dei. The analysis begins by examining Augustine’s language of passions and the doctrinal connections between Augustine and his predecessors. I provide a survey of Augustine’s usage of emotional terms and criticise the position that Augustine suggested a dichotomy between passio and affectus as well as the claim that none of Augustine’s Latin terms can be justifiably translated by the modern term “emotion”. On the basis of terminological and doctrinal observations, I clarify the general features of Augustine’s psychology of passions in Chapter 2. In addressing the issue of how Augustine transformed his predecessors’ therapy of passions and their ideal of freedom from emotion into his theological framework in Chapter 3, I examine a series of related concepts, such as propatheia, metriopatheia, apatheia and eupatheia, to determine how he understood them in various stages of his philosophical and theological thinking.

  • Echoes of Repentance
    Echoes of Repentance Sunday Advent 2, Year B Isaiah 40: 1 – 11; 2 Peter 3: 8 – 14; Mark 1: 1 – 8 December 6, 2020 Grace, mercy and peace to you from God our Father and our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. You may not be aware, but today once had great significance in the Church. It was a day celebrated by many, and in some places, is still a day of celebration. This is the day that children used to get gifts, before that tradition was moved to Christmas Day. This is the day that a great man of the Church was celebrated, before he was turned into the guy that brought those Christmas gifts. This is the Feast of St. Nicholas, a fourth century bishop. Not only is he known as a pastor and a man of great generosity, but he was also a staunch defender of the Trinity, even in the face of fierce opposition. He was at the Council of Nicaea and may have had a hand in writing the Nicene Creed. The very Creed that we will recite together today. Because of his voice, defending the doctrine of the Trinity, we join our voices with his in that creed that has been on the lips of the faithful for some 1700 years. But, while today is St. Nicholas’ feast day, I want to turn to another voice. This one didn’t echo in the halls of a council, but was alone in the wilderness. We hear about this voice today in the Gospel of St.

  • From Luther to Levinas and Arendt
    Open Theology 2018; 4: 428–449 Rethinking Reformation Claudia Welz* Freedom, Responsibility, and Religion in Public Life: From Luther to Levinas and Arendt https://doi.org/10.1515/opth-2018-0034 Received May 17, 2018; accepted August 3, 2018 Abstract: While Luther affirmed the believer’s freedom in relation to the world, he described the human being as unfree in relation to God from whom we receive everything and without whom we can achieve nothing good. This article reconsiders the relation between autonomy and heteronomy in the context of a phenomenology of listening: if faith comes from listening (ex auditu) and auditus is not a human capacity, but rather the effect of God’s Word that operates within the human being, how is our (un)freedom to be understood? Further, if a human being’s self-relation is expressed by the ‘voice’ of conscience, which can be ignored only at the cost of losing the unity with oneself, how is responsibility to be conceptualized when the call comes both from ‘within’ and from ‘without’? Finally, what are the implications of this view of the person for the role of religion in public life and the ways in which religious conflicts can be resolved? In an anachronistic thought experiment, Luther is brought into a posthumous dialogue with those that he excluded from the discussion: the Jews. In particular, his view concerning the just- mentioned questions is contrasted with insights by Emmanuel Levinas and Hannah Arendt. Keywords: Autonomy/heteronomy, faith, sin, doubt, listening, obedience, responsiveness, conscience, God’s Word The present article1 focuses on three interrelated themes, which concern a person’s God-relationship, self-relation, and relations to others: (1) Commenting on Genesis 22, Martin Luther points out that God contradicts Himself when commanding Abraham to ‘bind’ and sacrifice his only son.

  • Rev. Will Burhans Date: March 8, 2019 the 7 Deadly Sins. This
    1 Sermon: Homo Incurvatus In Se Scripture: Luke 4:1-13 Preacher: Rev. Will Burhans Date: March 8, 2019 The 7 Deadly Sins. This is our theme for the next six weeks of Lent. Since there are 7 of them and only 6 Sundays of Lent, today we are doubling up and considering two of the sins, greed and gluttony. Before you say “actually, I think I have somewhere else to be” I hope you will keep an open mind and come to see how rich some meditation on these themes can be. Lent has always been known as the penitential season for Christians, which means a season for recognizing how we’ve gotten off-track and need to take steps to turn back to God… and we all get off- track. First, let’s get clear on what we are talking about when we use the word SIN. The best definitions for sin that I have heard in our Christian tradition come from the 4th century church father Augustine and the 20th century Protestant theologian Paul Tillich. Augustine said sin is “homo incurvatus in se” which means sin is “the human being curved in on itself”. We are made as human beings to be turned outward towards God and one another. Our being fully human necessarily means being connected, and we become less than we were made to be when we distort that movement, that connection and become turned in on ourselves. Paul Tillich said quite simply “sin is separation”. When Jesus was tempted in the wilderness by the devil he was tempted at each step to turn towards himself, to curve inward and in each response he turns back outward toward God.

For Luther’s soul, the man or person, or the Christian. In doctrine of libertas, I will look at his Treatise on contrast, Gutiérrez is concerned more about Christian Liberty, one of three important works he society and the groups and classes making it up; wrote in late 1520.1 In the case of Gutiérrez, I will he writes, for example, that “peace, justice, love base my discussion here on his now classic and freedom are not private realities, they are not Theology of Liberation, first published in English in only internal attitudes.

  • Moral Warriors: a Contradiction in Terms?1 Jonathan E
    CTQ 82 (2018): 247–280 Moral Warriors: A Contradiction in Terms?1 Jonathan E. Shaw Kings, strategists, and prophets have long debated the morality of warfare. Some have viewed war as the mere exercise of power, with practitioners excused from moral liability. Others have regarded war as an intrinsic violation of human dignity, with soldiers branded as barbarians. Yet others have focused on the demands of justice to limit war, with warriors embodying those demands. Lutheran Christians have traditionally followed St. Paul in framing war within God’s rule of the civil realm, with state leaders authorizing war and soldiers prosecuting war to punish evil and protect good (Rom 13:1–6). To add complexity, these categories of assessing warfare sometimes overlap. This essay examines the morality of warfare in terms of those who fight. Is “moral warriors” a contradiction in terms? The question asks whether it is morally problematic to be a warrior, a soldier, a uniformed member of the military Services.2 The paper offers two approaches to this question. The first is internal to the profession of arms. This approach asks: Is the very exercise of the profession of arms inherently immoral, or at least practically so? Does being a soldier and doing what soldiers must do necessarily cause moral transgression? For example, does being part of the military, exercising command authority, or, quite bluntly, killing in combat make one morally censurable? The second approach is “interprofessional,” that is, between the profession of arms and the profession

  • By Thine Agony and Bloody Sweat Dogmatic Description of the Double Agency of Christ – a Modest Proposal
    BY THINE AGONY AND BLOODY SWEAT DOGMATIC DESCRIPTION OF THE DOUBLE AGENCY OF CHRIST – A MODEST PROPOSAL by PATRICK D. M. PATTERSON A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF WYCLIFFE COLLEGE AND THEOLOGICAL DEPARTMENT OF TORONTO SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY. IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF THEOLOGY AWARDED BY WYCLIFFE COLLEGE AND THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO. © Copyright by Patrick Patterson 2012 BY THINE AGONY AND BLOODY SWEAT DOGMATIC DESCRIPTION OF THE DOUBLE AGENCY OF CHRIST – A MODEST PROPOSAL PATRICK D. M. PATTERSON DOCTOR OF THEOLOGY Wycliffe College of University of Toronto 2013 Abstract It is a theological commonplace that 'classical' christology is incompetent to comprehend the authentic humanity of Christ. Alert to the charge but sympathetic to a ‘neo-classical’ approach, this paper addresses one aspect of the problem, namely, the properly dogmatic definition of Christ's divine and human agencies, with particular reference to the biblical locus classicus, Jesus’ prayer in Gethsemane. My thesis is twofold. (i) Neo-classical christologies are able sufficiently to comprehend the double agency of Christ because they are able sufficiently to comprehend even the most provocative of biblical texts, epitomised by the narratives of Jesus' agony in Gethsemane. (ii) Their sufficiency depends upon their taking into account as of the utmost significance that Jesus is the Messiah of Israel and the seed of Abraham, in whom Yahweh the God of Israel has redeemed his people unto the blessing of the nations. My defence of the first part consists in careful exposition of the double agency of Christ according to John Meyendorff, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Karl Barth; defence of the second in theological commentary on the Gethsemane text in Luke.
