New English Translations Of Calvin’S Works. Referring to the circumstances detailed in the last Annual Report, and the Resolution and explanations therein detailed, as to the completion of the present Series, in December 1855, the Secretary has now the pleasure of stating, that, during the past year, every exertion has been made to bring the operations of the Society to a close in a satisfactory manner—so far as the interests of the Subscribers are concerned—within the period prescribed. The Books which have been prepared, in return for the Annual Subscriptions received for the year 1854, are the following:— I. Commentaries on the last four Books of Moses, arranged in the form of a Harmony, Vol. III., with Annotations, &c., by the Rev. Charles W. Bingham, M.A., Rector of Melcombe-Horsey, Dorset, and formerly Fellow of New College, Oxford. II. Commentaries on the Book of the Prophet Jeremiah, Vol. IV., with Annotations, &c., and a New Translation of the Text corresponding to the Contents. By the Rev. John Owen, Vicar of Thrussington and Rural Dean, Leicestershire. III. Commentaries on the Epistles of St. Paul to the Galatians and Ephesians, with Annotations; and a New Translation of both of these Epistles, to which are appended Tables and a General Index. By the Rev. William Pringle. (Completed.) IV. Commentaries upon the Book of Joshua, with Tables and a General Index. By Henry Beveridge, Esq.: Professor Tholuck’s Dissertation on the value of Calvin as an Interpreter of Scripture: and Opinions and Testimonies respecting the Writings of John Calvin.—(Completed.) These Volumes form the Twenty-third and Twenty-fourth Issues. The four Volumes above-mentioned are in the course of being transmitted, through the usual channels, to every Member whose Subscriptions have hitherto reached the Office, 9, Northumberland Street, Edinburgh. Parties whose friends or Correspondents have omitted to remit their Annual Subscriptions and Arrears, will be so good as instruct them to do so without delay, by Post-Office, or Bank Orders, or Cheques, payable to the Secretary, and their Parcels will immediately be sent free of Carriage to any address in London, Dublin, or Edinburgh; or they will be booked at Railway Offices, or other Public conveyances, to be forwarded from thence, at their own risk and expense, to their respective destinations. Those who wish their Bankers or Agents to pay their Subscriptions will be pleased to send the Secretary a special Mandate to that effect. PLL v6.0 (generated September, 2011) 5 http://oll.libertyfund.org/title/1793 Online Library of Liberty: Commentaries on the Epistles of Paul to the Galatians and the Ephesians To facilitate the prompt and accurate delivery of future parcels, Subscribers are particularly requested to send timely notice to the Office of the Secretary of all the changes of Residence and Address, or of any alteration in the present mode of conveyance. The necessity of making prompt and punctual payment of the Annual Contributions is again most earnestly impressed on the Subscribers, so as to enable the Secretary to arrange the various materials—to put the Works to press at an earlier date than heretofore—and to regulate the number of copies to be printed. If the Members were uniformly to transmit their Annual payments direct to the Office in Edinburgh, in January or February of each year, all the other arrangements would be thereby greatly facilitated, and speedier delivery of the Books would also be secured till the close of the Society’s operations. The Works which are in preparation for the last year of this Scheme (1855,) in return for the Annual Subscription payable on the First day of January 1855, and which will form the Twenty-fifth and Twenty-sixth Issues, are the following:— 1. Commentary and Harmony of the Pentateuch. Vol. IV.—(Completed.) 2. Commentary on the Prophecies of Jeremiah, Vol. V., and the Lamentations of Jeremiah.—(Completed.) 3. Commentary on the Epistles to Timothy, Titus, and Philemon.—(Completed.) 4. Commentary on the Catholic Epistles, of Peter, John, James, and Jude.—(Completed.) All the Works for the Year1855 have for a considerable period been in active preparation. From the arrangements which were made before the close of the year 1853, it is trusted that under the permission of God, this invaluable Series of the Works of Calvin will be brought to a satisfactory termination in the month of December 1855. RENEWED APPEAL TO SUBSCRIBERS. On several occasions, the Secretary has felt himself compelled to make known to the Subscribers to this Scheme, in general terms, the very heavy advance he has been induced to make in furtherance of the amended plan of New and Original Translations of the choicest of the Works of Calvin; and he is advised by friends, whose opinion and advice he is bound to respect, once more to state the simple facts in reference to his present position. The very unsatisfactory manner in which the Commentaries on the Acts and Romans had been translated in the Old English Version, (which the Syndicate had unfortunately resolved from the outset to present to the Subscribers,) and the antiquated and uncouth phraseology employed in these Versions, were most unsuitable to the taste and spirit of the times in which we live. On this account, and in justice to his own very decided opinion on that subject, which he had strongly expressed before the commencement of the Society, the Secretary found it necessary, PLL v6.0 (generated September, 2011) 6 http://oll.libertyfund.org/title/1793 Online Library of Liberty: Commentaries on the Epistles of Paul to the Galatians and the Ephesians either to abandon the official management of the Original Scheme, or vigorously to carry out, on his own individual means, a plan of exclusively New and carefully prepared Translations of the leading and Practical Works of John Calvin.

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.

  • Love Founded in God: the Fruits of Love in Kierkegaard's 'Works of Love'
    Page 1 of 10 Original Research Love founded in God: The fruits of love in Kierkegaard’s ‘Works of love’ Author: This article discussed the use of the Bible in ‘Love’s hidden life and its recognizability by Jos Huls1,2 its fruits’, which is the first reflection of Søren Kierkegaard’s book, Works of love. Firstly, this article discussed Kierkegaard’s lack of clarity about the fruits of love, even though he stresses Affiliations: 1Titus Brandsma Institute, their divine origin. Secondly, it reflected on his argument that, even though deeds are more Radboud Universiteit, important than words, words remain necessary because of the need to express love to others. The Netherlands In a following section he points out that neither specific words nor particular works of love can demonstrate that love exists. One needs to distinguish between works of love and the 2 Department of New attitude with which works are done. Thirdly, it pointed out how Kierkegaard argues that the Testament Studies, University of the Free inability to demonstrate love unconditionally does not negate that love is to be known by its State, South Africa fruits. It is rather a personal incitement to love for the sake of love itself. Noting that there is no direct relationship between the fruits of love and the actual effects our love has on others, Note: he points to the fact that the result of love is in the hands of God. He then argues that though Prof. Dr J. Huls is participating fruits of love may be invisible, they become apparent in the strength of our love.

  • 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.

  • ELA Curriculum
    Saskatchewan Catholic Schools Curriculum Permeation REVEALING CHRIST IN ALL WE TEACH ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS 8 2011 1 “Revealing Christ in All We Teach” “Revealing Christ In All We Teach” A Curriculum Permeation initiative of the Saskatchewan Catholic School Boards Association Introduction: “The Gospel spirit should be evident in a Christian way of thought and life which permeates all facets of the educational climate. Prime responsibility for creating this unique Christian school climate rests with the teachers, as individuals and as a community.” (The Religious Dimension of Education in a Catholic School, 1988 #25 -26.) Teachers in Saskatchewan are mandated by the Ministry of Education to implement provincial curricula. Teachers in Saskatchewan Catholic Schools are further charged to utilize the “Revealing Christ in All We Teach” resources to permeate the Ministry curriculum with the Catholic world view. Our Catholic schools seek to create a learning environment that reflects the identity and character of the Catholic Church. In each of our Catholic schools throughout Saskatchewan, we strive to become learning environments in which the uniqueness of our Catholic faith is expressed in all we do. We believe that teaching in our Catholic schools is a ministry in which all are called to witness their faith. The teaching that occurs within our Catholic schools ought to reflect more than the content and objectives of the provincial curricula. In addition to these core fundamentals, we are called to infuse our Catholic beliefs and values in all subject areas. In an ever-increasing secular world in which religious beliefs are dismissed, we must take up the challenge to see that the teaching of our Catholic values and beliefs are not limited to Religion and Christian Ethics classes alone, but are taught across the entire curricula.

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.
