Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein. Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death? Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in the newness of life” (Rom. 6:1-4). BIBLE WORDS Iconolatry Iconolatry is the use of icons (images, pictures, and other physical representations), to aid in the worship of God. It is a type of worship used by the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches as a representation of Christ. The claim is that while the worship belongs to Christ, because He is represented by the icon it is proper to venerate it. However, according to Scripture, this type of worship is not only unacceptable to the Lord, but He has strictly forbidden it (see Ex. 20:3-5; Deut. 5:6-9). Iconolatry is simply a form of idolatry and should note be practiced in any “Ideology” Ideology is the combined body of concepts, or beliefs, about nature, human life and culture that motivate a person’s thinking and therefore their actions. Just as everyone has a theological system of some kind, everyone has an ideology of life built on their theological concepts by which they live, even when some of those concepts contradict each other. The ideology of the “Post Modern” culture that has developed in the USA today seems to be a blend of Cosmic Humanism and Hedonism with a spoonful of Nihilism added and then coated with Panentheism, sprinkled with Political Correctness, baked in the oven of Tolerance, and then served with a side of Deism. When closely scrutinized, any theology, ideology, or worldview that is not based squarely on God’s Word, the Bible, in its entirety, will be found wanting because it will minimize God and reject His sovereign authority as Creator and exalt man and maximize his autonomy, especially in matters of faith, ethics, and morals. Post-modernism has given rise to a belief system, or more accurately, a non-belief system that has come to be known as “Ietsism.” Many today, especially in Western Europe and North America have embraced, in part or in whole, the concepts of Ietsism and the Ideology spawned by it.

  • Call for Papers LUTHERANISM & the CLASSICS VI: Beauty Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Indiana October 1-2, 2020
    Call for Papers LUTHERANISM & THE CLASSICS VI: Beauty Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Indiana October 1-2, 2020 WHAT: From the Reformation onward, Lutherans have not only held the languages and literatures of the ancient Greeks and Romans in high regard, but also respected their theories of aesthetics and artistic sensibilities. While Martin Luther came to believe that beauty is found not in an Aristotelian golden mean but rather in God’s own self- giving in Christ Jesus under forms that may seem ugly to unbelief, he valued proportionality, aesthetics, music, and the visual arts as precious gifts of a generous Creator. Imaging is not only what the human heart does—whether concocting idols or honoring God—but also how the proclaimed word portrays Christ: primarily as divine gift. The conference organizers seek individual papers (or panels with at least three participants) on such topics as follow: Reformation-era Perspectives on Beauty in Plato and Aristotle Lucas Cranach and the Classical Artistic Tradition The Basilica and Church Architecture The Role of Images in the Early Church Beauty and Aesthetics as Understood by the Church Fathers Iconolatry and Iconoclasm The Strange Beauty of the Cross Luther’s Understanding of Beauty under its Apparent Opposite in Selected Psalms Luther on the Theology and Beauty of Music Lutheran Phil-Hellenism Beauty in Orthodoxy, Pietism, and Rationalism Baroque Beauty: Bach and Others Classical Rhetoric and Christian Preaching The Beauty of Holiness Luther’s Aesthetics in Contrast to Modern Views of Beauty How Might Christian Children Learn Aesthetics? Our subject is broadly conceived and considerable latitude will be given to cogent abstracts.

    ©Ê 2002 Joe Griffin 02-10-13-A.CC02-42 / 1 Clanking Chains: Self-Righteous Arrogance: Unhappiness, Iconoclastic, Client Nation, 2 Peter 1:1-2 5) The Arrogance of Unhappiness. We have seen this expression of arrogance associated with Authority Arrogance. The unhappy person is also self-righteous and is preoccupied with self. If he finds himself in a circumstance that causes him to be fearful or angry or both, he has an intense desire to be free of these things. Fascism and Nazism caused the founders of the Frankfurt School to first be afraid and then to become angry. They were unable to evaluate the historical circumstances surrounding the Third Reich from establishment viewpoint let alone biblical viewpoint. Unable to analyze these historical events as the ultimate act of fallen men driven by self- righteous arrogance, they chose instead to analyze them from the viewpoint of the West’s corrupt culture and authoritarian traditions with Christian theology being one of the major contributors. Fearful of a future repeat performance of fascism, the Frankfurt philosophers switched over to anger in their search for a solution. Implacability is locked-in anger that leads to bitterness. Bitterness is an expression of self-pity which expresses frustration that they can find no solution to their unhappy circumstance. Frustrated, self-righteous people never see their own faults but only the faults of others. These perceived faults may be real or imagined. And the Frankfurt fellows imagined that the causes of their frustrations were Western culture and Christian theology. This entangled them in: 6) Iconoclastic Arrogance.

  • Islam and Christian Theologians
    • CTSA PROCEEDINGS 48 (1993): 41-54 • ISLAM AND CHRISTIAN THEOLOGIANS Once upon a time an itinerant grammarian came to a body of water and enlisted the services of a boatman to ferry him across. As they made their way, the grammarian asked the boatman, "Do you know the science of grammar?" The humble boatman thought for a moment and admitted somewhat dejectedly that he did not. Not much later, a growing storm began to imperil the small vessel. Said the boatman to the grammarian, "Do you know the science of swimming?" On the eve of the new millennium too much of our theological activity remains shockingly intramural. Instead of allowing an inherent energy to launch us into the larger reality of global religiosity, we insist on protecting our theology from the threat of contamination. If we continue to resist serious engagement with other theological traditions, and that of Islam in particular, our theology may prove as useful as grammar in a typhoon. But what would swimming look like in theological terms? In the words of Robert Neville, "One of the most important tasks of theology today is to develop strategies for determining how to enter into the meaning system of another tradition, not merely as a temporary member of that tradition, but in such a way as to see how they bear upon one another."1 I propose to approach this vast subject by describing the "Three M's" of Muslim-Christian theological engagement: Models (or methods from the past); Method (or a model for future experimentation); and Motives.

  • TREATISE on RELICS by John Calvin
    THE AGES DIGITAL LIBRARY THEOLOGY TREATISE ON RELICS by John Calvin B o o k s F o r Th e A g e s AGES Software • Albany, OR USA Version 1.0 © 1998 2 TREATISE ON RELICS. BY JOHN CALVIN, Newly Translated From The French Original With An Introductory Dissertation On The Miraculous Images, As Well As Other Superstitions, Of The Roman Catholic And Russo-Greek Churches. TO THE PROTESTANTS OF GREAT BRITAIN AND OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA THIS LITTLE WORK IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED BY THE TRANSLATOR. 3 PREFACE. THE Treatise on Relics by the great Reformer of Geneva: is not so generally known as it deserves, though at the time of its publication it enjoyed a considerable popularity.F1 The probable reason of this is, that the absurdity of the relics described in this Treatise has since the Reformation gradually become so obvious, that their exhibitors make as little noise as possible about their miraculous wares, whose virtues are no longer believed except by the most ignorant part of the population of countries wherein the education of the inferior classes is neglected. And, indeed, not only Protestants, but many enlightened Roman Catholics believed that all the miracles of relics, images, and other superstitions with which Christianity was infected during the times of mediaeval ignorance would be soon, by the progress of knowledge, consigned for ever to the oblivion of the dark ages, and only recorded in the history of the aberrations of the human mind, together with the superstitions of ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Unfortunately these hopes have not been realized, and are still remaining amongst the pia desideria.

Nathaniel Ogden Kidd, B.A., M.Div A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin December, 2018 ABSTRACT IMAGINING DEMONS IN POST-BYZANTINE JERUSALEM: JOHN OF DAMASCUS AND THE CONSOLIDATION OF CLASSICAL CHRISTIAN DEMONOLOGY The Rev. Nathaniel Ogden Kidd, B.A., M.Div Marquette University, 2018 This dissertation traces the consolidation of a classical Christian framework for demonology in the theological corpus of John of Damascus (c. 675 – c. 750), an eighth century Greek theologian writing in Jerusalem. When the Damascene sat down to write, I argue, there was a great variety of demonological options available to him, both in the depth of the Christian tradition, and in the ambient local imagination. John’s genius lies first in what he chose not to include, but second in his ability to synthesize a minimalistic demonology out of a complex body of material and integrate it into a broader theological system.
