Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI has said, “The Way of the Cross is not only a great testimony to an inner depth and maturity, but it is in fact a school for interiority and consolation. It is also a school for the examination of conscience, for conversion, for inner transfor- mation and compassion—not as sentimentality, as a mere feeling, but as a disturbing experience that knocks on the door of my heart, that obliges me to know myself and to become a better person.” Make this beautiful devotion a part of your Lenten journey.

  • The Physics of a Miracle the Post-‐Resurrection Body of Jesus from the Pers

    The Physics of a Miracle the Post-‐Resurrection Body of Jesus from the Pers

    The Physics of a Miracle The Post-Resurrection Body of Jesus from the Perspective of Quantum Theory Pablo Bandera It has often been noted that Christianity is more orthodox than orthoprax, being concerned primarily with a doctrine of faith, and secondarily with the practice of rituals. This might seem to generally emphasize the spiritual over the physical, but Christianity does nonetheless place a clear importance on the concept of the physical body. The most obvious example, of course, is the historical existence of Jesus and the death and resurrection of His body. In this essay I wish to focus on one particular aspect of the Resurrection. More specifically, I wish to investigate the fact that Jesus was not recognized even by His own disciples only a few days after His crucifixion. There are at least three passages that refer to this lack of recognition explicitly. The first is Luke 24:13-32, which recounts the two disciples’ encounter on the road to Emmaus… “While they were talking and discussing, Jesus himself came near and went with them, but their eyes were kept from recognizing him” The second passage is John 20:11-18, which describes Mary Magdalene’s encounter with Jesus in the tomb… “When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus.” The third passage is John 21:1-14, which describes the encounter of seven disciples with Jesus at the Sea of Tiberias… “Just after daybreak, Jesus stood on the beach; but the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.” For the sake of brevity, I will refer to this difference in the appearance of Jesus, and the resulting lack of recognition by Mary and the disciples, as the “post-resurrection transfiguration” of Jesus.
  • The Resurrection As Christ's Entry Into His Glory (Lk. 24:26)

    The Resurrection As Christ's Entry Into His Glory (Lk. 24:26)

    Pieter G.R. de Villiers THE RESURRECTION AS CHRIST’S ENTRY INTO HIS GLORY (LK. 24:26) ABSTRACT This essay discusses some apocalyptic perspectives on Luke’s portrayal of the resurrection as Christ’s entry into his glory (Lk. 24:26) in order to point out its mystical nature. After a discussion of some recent developments in research on Luke’s Christology and apocalyptic literature, the importance of glory in Early Jewish and Christian apocalypses is discussed. This is followed by an explanation of the glory motif in Luke 24:26, its place in Luke’s resurrection account in general and in the story of the disciples of Emmaus in particular. The essay then compares the mystical use of the glory motif in Luke 24:26 with Luke’s use of glory elsewhere in his writings. It concludes with general remarks about the mystical nature of the resurrection in Luke’s writings. 1. INTRODUCTION In the episode of the disciples on the road to Emmaus (Lk. 24:13-35), the resurrected Jesus, unrecognized by two of his disciples, joins them and questions them about their discussion of the empty grave (Lk. 24:17). The two, surprised at his lack of knowledge of events (Lk. 24:18), inform him about the earthly ministry of Jesus. At the end of their explanation of Jesus’ ministry and death they mention the discovery of the empty grave and the news that Jesus was alive (Lk. 24:22-24). Jesus, having reprimanded them for their unbelief, then interprets the resurrection events to them with the words, “Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?”(οὐχὶ ταῦτα ἔδει παθεῖν τὸν χριστὸν καὶ εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ; Lk.

    Lenten Journey, We Want to Spend Time Reflecting on the Scripture and in Prayer

    LENT, A JOURNEY TO DICIPLESHIP A PERIOD FOR PURIFICATION AND ENLIGHTENMENT A PERSONAL WALK ON THE ROAD TO EMMAUS Jesus himself drew near and walked with them on the road to Emmaus. The unknown stranger spoke and their hearts burned. Walk with us too! Let our hearts burn within us! Their eyes were opened when he blessed and broke bread. Let us know you in the breaking of the bread, and in every person we meet. They begged him to stay with them in the village they called home. Please stay with us. Do not leave us at the end of this day, or at the end of all of our days. #1214167v1 1858-26 1 INTRODUCTION1: Each year, Lent offers us a providential opportunity to deepen the meaning and value of our Christian lives, and it stimulates us to rediscover the mercy of God so that we, in turn, become more merciful toward our brothers and sisters. In the Lenten period, the Church makes it her duty to propose some specific tasks that accompany the faithful concretely in this process of interior renewal: these are prayer, fasting and almsgiving. In this year’s Lenten journey, we want to spend time reflecting on the Scripture and in prayer. We are not unlike the disciples who were accompanied by the Lord on the road to Emmaus. They reflected on the Scripture as Jesus explained it to them. And they engaged in the most formidable type of prayer known to us, a dialogue with the Risen Lord. The materials that follow are presented to you as “signposts” on your personal walk with Jesus this Lent.

    Confucian Protestant Churches Crossing the Pacific: a Sociological Study of Pre-Christian Asian Influences on Korean Immigrant Churches in America

    CONFUCIAN PROTESTANT CHURCHES CROSSING THE PACIFIC: A SOCIOLOGICAL STUDY OF PRE-CHRISTIAN ASIAN INFLUENCES ON KOREAN IMMIGRANT CHURCHES IN AMERICA A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Byung Kwan Chae May 2014 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Terry Rey, Advisory Chair, Religion Dr. Sydney D. White, Religion Dr. Leonard Swidler, Religion Dr. Kimberly A. Goyette, External Member, Sociology © Copyright 2014 by Byung Kwan Chae All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a sociological exploration of Korean Protestant immigrant churches in the United States and the influence of Confucian traditions on them. Neo- Confucianism was accepted as the state ideology in Korea in the late fourteenth century, and its influences are still strong in Koreans’ expressions of thought and worldviews, and Korean immigrants in the United States are no exception. Confucian elements are observed not only in Korean Protestant churches in Korea but also Korean immigrant churches in the United States. Thus, it can be said that Korean immigrant churches have the characteristics of a transnational religious institution. Transnationally, Confucian characteristics affect Korean churches. Further, Confucian traditions are integral to a collective consciousness for Korean immigrants, and thus their relationships and manners, based on Confucian traditions and teachings, enable them to maintain and reinforce their social solidarity. Moreover, such Confucian teachings and cultural mores are inculcated in most Koreans’ habitus. As social agents, church members use symbolic capital, such as age and Confucian manners, to gain higher status in the church. In particular, age can be considered generational capital that determines and legitimizes church members’ positions.

  • Transfiguration of Jesus Christ

    Transfiguration of Jesus Christ

    Teaching # 1: TRANSFIGURATION OF JESUS CHRIST Week 50 This week’s objective: To examine the meaning of the resurrection, as well as learn to appropriate its value in my life as a disciple. The Command Introduced: Matthew 17:9; Mark 9:9 “Now as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, ‘Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man is risen from the dead.’” The Command Interpreted: The best way to accurately interpret this command is to read the entire passage (Matthew 17: 1-8). Six days before Jesus took His disciples upon a “high mountain,” He told them confidently, “there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom” (Matthew 16:28). Coming “in” (present tense) His kingdom is respectively distinguished of Jesus coming “from” (future tense) His kingdom (Matthew 16:27). Mysterious as it may be, “some” (Peter, James, John) were given front row seats to watch Christ come “into” His kingdom. How would this be? Transfiguration. That’s how. On the mountain, Jesus was “transfigured before them.” The Greek word “transfigured” (metamorphoo) means “transform; change.” This same Greek word is issued in the command “be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2). Therefore, to be transfigured is to be changed from the inside out, like a cocooned larva into an elegant butterfly. The evidence for Christ’s transfiguration is expressed as “His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light” (verse 2).

    A Comparative Study on the Deciphering Petroglyph of Mt. Lawz(so-called Mt. Sinai) & the Ancient Hebrew on the Roof-End Tiles of Gojoseon(古朝鮮) Dynasty in Korea Park Tae-Seon (The Master of Ancient Hebrew Research Institute) E-mail: [email protected] Han Gang-Hyen (The President of International Academy of Neohumans Culture) E-mail: [email protected] Introduction The Body Ⅰ. ‘The Roof-End–Tile Pattern’ of Gojoseon(古朝鮮)Dynasty was Ancient Hebrew. Ⅱ. The Same Folk Gulture and Customs of the Koreans and Ancient Israelites Ⅲ. The Decoding and Secret of Mt. Sinai’s Petroglyph on which the Red Sea Miracle was Engraved by Moses. Conclusion Abstract The Koreans, like the Israelites who have a history of hardship, are the heavenly people, chosen people, hidden in the history of the world that achieved the "Miracle on the Han River" overcoming numerous hardships and foreign invasions. This paper is the result of a long-term study on the activities and emigration of the Dan Tribe among the ancient Israelites. It is an archaeologically, linguistically and culturally important proof paper that will unveil the heavenly providence and secrets of the Koreans, the Dan Tribe. The main topics and contents of this paper are explained in three parts. In the first part, by succeeding in deciphering the ancient-Hebrew patterns on the roof-end tiles excavated in the Daedong Riverside in the Korean - 1 - Peninsula, I will reveal that Dangun, the founder of Korea, was the lost Dan Tribe of ancient Israelites. In the second part, by studying more than 100 kinds of evidences, such as similar customs, cultures, and temperaments of the Korean and Israelites, from the academic aspects of various adjacent studies, I will presented a proof that the King of Dangun(檀君),which belonged to the Kingdom of Northern Israel’ moved from the TEL DAN region to the northeast, settled on the Korean Peninsula, and established Gojoseon following the heavenly order.

Schmitt What problem do Korean churches have now? Korean churches have had serious growth problems since the 1990s'. Although Korean churches have grown rapidly with the economic growth of Korea, there have been many contributions and evil influences of shamanism, which lies deep in the minds of Korean people. Obviously, shamanism has made a contribution to growth of the Korean church since Christianity was introduced. Many churches and pastors have consented to or utilized such a tendency. However, this created serious problems. Shamanism is anti-Biblical. Shamanism brought about a theoretical combination, transmutation of religion and many mistakes in church life. A questionnaire was used to reveal; these facts. Ultimately, this thesis calls attention to shamanist elements in Korean churches and suggests how to eliminate them. Abstract length: 125 words IV ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Liberty University has become one of my almamaters. I have some good memories of going to the classrooms on the quiet snowy campus. There was also a great change in me while I was taking the courses.
