    ACBC Theology Question 1 Q1: Describe the inspiration, inerrancy, and authority of Scripture as well as the relationship of each one of these issues to one another. Scripture Texts: 2 Timothy 3:15-17 Matthew 5:17-18, 7:29, 12:5, 19:4, 22:31, 28:18 Mark 12:26 Acts 17:11 2 Cor. 10:5 2 Peter 1:20-21 Jude 1:25 John 10:35 I Thess. 2:13 Titus 1:2 Psalm 19 Prov. 30:5 Inspiration: “…is the determining influence exercised by the Holy Spirit on the writers of the Old and New Testaments in order that they might proclaim and set down in exact and authentic way the message as received from God” (Rene Pache; The Inspiration and Authority of Scripture). Puritans: “What God’s Word says, God is saying.” Inerrancy: Inerrancy is the view that when all the facts become known, they will demonstrate that the Bible in its original autographs and correctly interpreted is entirely true and never false in all it affirms, whether that relates to doctrine or ethics or to social, physical or life sciences (P.D. Feinburg; Evangelical Dictionary of Theology; ed. Elwell). It is wholly trustworthy in matters of history and doctrine. However limited may have been their knowledge, and however much they have erred when they were not writing sacred Scripture, the authors of Scripture, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, were preserved from making factual, historical, scientific, or other errors. The Bible does not purport to be a textbook of history, science, or mathematics; yet when the writers of Scripture spoke of matters embraced in these disciplines, they did not indite error; they wrote what was true ( Harold Lindsell, The Battle for the Bible, 1976, pages 30-31).

  • Love, Hope, and Remembering Rev
    Love, Hope, and Remembering Rev. Diana Smith at the Unitarian Universalist Society, Coralville, IA November 1, 2020 An Invitation to Lament Rev. Diana Smith Even as good things have also happened, this has been a hard year. Our hearts are heavy with the loss of not only those we love who have died. They’re heavy, too, with missing the faces, the touches, the hugs, the simple presence of so many of our friends, our family, those we care deeply about, and those we interact casually with. Some of us have lost jobs, are underemployed, or have loved ones experiencing financial difficulty. Some of us have lost homes, health, or ability. We experienced a major natural disaster, a derecho, and family members have been affected by other natural and unnatural disasters, fueled by climate change. We’ve gone through major life transitions without many of our people around us. And this Sunday we look toward Tuesday, an election day that will bring we know not what, but which weighs heavy in our hearts with fear, anxiety, waiting, wondering, and sometimes hope – no matter what we each hope the outcomes will be. An election day and week where we anticipate we may not receive prompt answers, where we wonder what will come of the uncertainty and many people’s responses to all this. We worry about the possibilities of upheaval and perhaps violence. Many of us worry about ourselves and other loves ones who have more marginalized identities and are vulnerable. There is an ancient practice of lament: writing a piece that expresses grief and loss.

  • Righteous Indignation I
    John 2:13-22 13The Jewish Passover was near, so Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and money changers sitting at tables. 15He made a whip of cords and drove everyone out of the temple courts, along with the sheep and oxen. He scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. 16To those selling doves he said, “Get these things out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a place of business!” 17His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for your house will consume me.” 18So the Jews responded, “What sign are you going to show us to prove you can do these things?” 19Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.” 20The Jews said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple! And you are going to raise it in three days?” 21But Jesus was speaking about the temple of his body. 22When Jesus was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this. Then they believed the Scripture and what Jesus had said. Righteous Indignation I. You sigh as you enter church. It’s that time of year again—the time leading up to Passover. Jewish faithful from all over the world are coming to make their pilgrimage to the temple to make their sacrifices and pay their temple-tax. It probably all seems very practical and pragmatic to the Jewish out-of-town-ers. They’ll stop in the equivalent of the narthex area for all the necessary items for their sacrifices.

  • Righteous Vs. Misguided Anger Know the Difference
    1.13.2018 Righteous Vs. Misguided Anger Know The Difference We live in a culture that simultaneously promotes Angry Responses while at the same time rewards Keeping Cool at all costs. Twitter, YouTube and nightly news reports are filled with Angry Videos that have millions of views. We see on a daily basis some politician with crocodile tears foisting some new victimhood narrative. At the same time, real injustice with life and death consequences is being dealt with lukewarm conviction. More so, real Discipline is being ignored altogether because a Righteous Anger has been muffled, stifled, suppressed, repressed, throttled and otherwise choked out of existence. Anger is a completely normal and usually healthy human emotion. It is a natural adaptive response to hazards, dangers, threats and perils to one’s personal safety and security. Anger inspires powerful, often aggressive, feelings and behaviors, which allow us to fight and defend ourselves when we are attacked. A certain amount of anger is necessary for our survival and for the survival of the loved ones placed in our care. Civil Society however, has mitigated the need for one to walk around in a constant state of assertive belligerence. However, we still have feelings of anger and frustration because of very real and inescapable problems in our lives. Everyone needs to learn the difference between Righteous and Misguided Anger. While anger is not in itself wrong, it is accurately grouped into the concept of Wrath, one of the 7 Deadly Sins. If left unchecked, anger can lead to Wrath. The difference is in intensity, force and passion.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 4 8 1 0 6 - 1346 GLASGOW UNIVERSITY LIBRARY 122%'Cop7 I Abstract Japan held a profound fascination for Western artists in the latter half of the nineteenth century. The influence of Japanese art is a phenomenon that is now called Japonisme , and it spread widely throughout Western art. It is quite hard to make a clear definition of Japonisme because of the breadth of the phenomenon, but it could be generally agreed that it is an attempt to understand and adapt the essential qualities of Japanese art. This thesis explores Japanese influences on British Art and will focus on four artists working in Britain: the American James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), the Australian Mortimer Menpes (1855-1938), and two artists from the group known as the Glasgow Boys, George Henry (1858-1934) and Edward Atkinson Hornel (1864-1933).

  • God Gave Them Over
    2 Timothy 4:3-4 (GW) 3 A time will come when people will not listen to accurate teachings. Instead, they will follow their own desires and surround themselves with teachers who tell them what they want to hear. 4 People will refuse to listen to the truth and turn to myths. John 5:28-29 (NKJV) 28 Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice 29 and come forth--those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation. God’s wrath is his settled hostility toward sin in all its various manifestations. To say it is “settled” hostility means that God’s holiness cannot and will not coexist with sin in any form whatsoever. God’s wrath is His holy hatred of all that is unholy. It is His righteous indignation at everything that is unrighteous. God’s Wrath Defined: Uncontrollable rage Vindictive bitterness God losing His temper What God’s wrath is not: Psalm 7:11 (NKJV) 11 God is a just judge, And God is angry with the wicked every day. Romans 1:18 (NASB) 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, STAGE 1: Indifference to God Romans 1:21a (NASB) 21 For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, The result of God’s wrath: 4 Stages STAGE 2: Moral blindness 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 (NASB) 3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4 in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

  • Divine Wrath and Human Anger Embarrassment Over References to God’S Ire Is Not a Recent Phenome- Non Or the Product of Modern Religious Sensibilities
    Divine Wrath and Human Anger Embarrassment over references to God’s ire is not a recent phenome- non or the product of modern religious sensibilities. Early Christian theologians were deeply sensitive to the destructive consequences of human anger, and feared it would be the context in which believers came to understand divine wrath. Christian Reflection Prayer A Series in Faith and Ethics Scripture Reading: Exodus 32:1-20 and 34:1-9 Reflection “Scripture is replete with references to divine indignation,” Michael McCarthy notes. “How we should appropriate images of God’s wrath is far from obvious.” Some Christians relish them: they claim that certain Focus Article: wars, terrorist acts, AIDS, and natural disasters are signs of God’s wrath Divine Wrath today, and they may even use the images to justify their own violent and Human Anger actions. For other Christians, the references to divine wrath are an embar- (Anger, pp. 37-45) rassment; in many churches they are omitted from Lectionary readings. For insight in interpreting these difficult passages, McCarthy turns Suggested Article: to four North African theologians in late antiquity who “were deeply Righteous Indignation sensitive to the destructive consequences of human anger. They worked (Anger, pp. 56-57) within a social and intellectual environment that placed great emphasis on the virtue of humans to control their rage. Furthermore, they saw that the terrible experience of human anger often supplied the context in which many readers of the Bible would come to understand divine wrath.” Arnobius of Sicca (d. 330) denies God’s wrath on philosophical grounds: it would compromise God’s sense of justice.

MUSKIN ABSTRACT Emotional reactivity has been commonly studied through the discrete emotion approach model (DEA) that categorizes emotions as singular unique experiences (sadness, fear, disgust, anger, etc.). Reactivity to a discrete emotion is related to the contextual relevance of the emotional elicitor, and thus, may result in variable reactivity profiles across different age groups. While prior research has typically associated older age with sadness

  • When Offense and Mutual Forgiveness Collide Yearly In
    Journal of Professionals in Guidance and Counseling, 1 (1), 2020, 14-25 Available online at: https://journal.uny.ac.id/index.php/progcouns When offense and mutual forgiveness collide yearly in indonesia: A qualitative study during Eid al-Fitr Nanang Erma Gunawan Ohio University Athens, OH 45701, United States of America E-mail: [email protected] Received: April 09, 2020; Revised: April 13, 2020; Accepted: April 13, 2020 Abstract One custom of Indonesian Muslims during Eid al-Fitr is to celebrate Ramadhan's end by requesting and giving forgiveness amongst Muslims. This celebration is the symbol of the triumph of the Muslims after a month of fasting and going back to being sinless like a newborn child. While mutual forgiveness has become an adhering religious practice, there is still limited analysis of how individuals deal with themselves about the observed offensive event with other people, and the spiritual practice of forgiving each other. Ten participants who participated in this research to address this issue. To evaluate the gathered data, the researcher conducted a content analysis. Results indicate that pardoning criminals during the Eid al-Fitr can be attainable. Not all the participants could forgive, however, simply because it was during a religious practice. Other causal factors to forgive are the degree of damage, anger, and recognition of the traumatic encounter. Keywords: offense, forgiveness, eid al-fitr, resentment, Indonesia This is an open-access article under the CC–BY-SA license. Introduction The topic of forgiveness in the field of psychology has recently been studied its relation to mental and physical health (Fehr, Gelfand, & Nag, 2010; Diener, Oishi, & Lucas, 2003) primarily.

  • The Art of Payback
    The Art of Payback Garry W. Trompf Anger and creativity have been commonly linked. How would we have a Ganesha if Shiva had not angrily severed his son’s head, wondrously replacing it with an elephantine one? Was it not a potent mystico- esoteric insight of Jacob Boehme, whose influence extended to Hegel and Hesse, that the whole cosmos issued from an unfathomable divine Anger?—an eruption of pure action, of overly-diffuse possibilities that had to be dissipated and of tamed wildness by holy Love.1 Common- sensically, human anger—outwardly expressed or repressed within—is the signal of relational altercation, the reactivity of a stress present(ed) between human and human, human and animal (if it is permissible to differentiate between the two in a late modern, would-be post-modern context),2 and between humans and the environment. Anger is the sunrise of an ‘abnormal’ act, some strong deed that is patently distin- guishable, that indelibly overrides life’s humdrum, and with such singularity of form that it beckons the iconic—the representation of conflict.3 While the wake of anger can only impinge on parts of the arena of creative artistry, and barely exhausts the whole energy-field of aesthetics’ conceivable domain, it is an important source of turbulence, of shifting others’ attentions. Anger is thus by no means an arbitrary starting-point for a discussion of art as “payback,” or more specifically as the use of the aesthetic to execute any negatively retributive ‘sting.’ Anger’s altercatory effect, of course, challenges us to consider

It has been accepted for inclusion in Faith and Philosophy: Journal of the Society of Christian Philosophers by an authorized editor of ePLACE: preserving, learning, and creative exchange. ARISTOTLE AND AQUINAS ON INDIGNATION: FROM NEMESIS TO THEODICY Gayne Nerney The intention of this essay is to examine the accounts of indignation in the philosophical psychologies of Aristotle and Aquinas, and, in particular, Aquinas's criticism of Aristotle's evaluation of the ethical significance of this emotion. It is argued that Aquinas holds the truth concerning the nature of indignation not to be obtainable on the grounds of theological neutrality. The reason for this is that the philosophical account of indignation calls for a forthrightly theistic reflection on the ultimate meaning of this emotion. Thus, the account of nemesis within philosophical psychology finds its completion only in theodicy. The paper concludes with a reflection on the criticism that Aquinas's devaluation of indignation could undercut the emotional basis of the virtue of justice.
