  • Gerald Bray, "What Will Happen to God? {Part II)," Churchman 101.1
    What will happen to God? Part II GERALD BRAY This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased These are famous words attributed to the Father, who, as the Synoptic Gospels record, pronounced them at the moment when the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus immediately after his baptism. The event is also recorded in the Fourth Gospel, but there we are told only that John the Baptist bore witness to the fact that Jesus was the Son of God. John's relative reticence is an argument in favour of granting him priority over the Synoptic account because it is so much less expansive on the subject of these extraordinary happenings. At the same time, John's account confirms that there is an important link between the Baptism of Jesus and the revelation that he is the Son of God. Students of early Church history may recall that Paul of Samosata was condemned at a Synod of Antioch in 268, apparently because he believed that the Baptism of Jesus was the point at which God adopted Jesus of Nazareth as his Son. The descent of the Holy Spirit, according to Paul's interpretation, was the seal which God put on this new relationship into which Jesus had entered. It is not difficult, of course, to see why Paul of Samosata should have fallen into this particular error. Paul was a firm believer in baptismal regeneration, and it seemed to him to be only logical that Jesus' baptism should have the same effect on him as it does on us.

  • PSCI 11 the Gospel According to U2 Winter Study 2008
    PSCI 11 The Gospel According to U2 Winter Study 2008 Professor Darel E. Paul PSCI 11 Stetson g19 Griffin 6 597-2327 TWR 10am-noon [email protected] Office Hrs.: Mondays 2:00pm - 4:00pm and by appointment Course Description It has been said that U2 is the "world's greatest rock band" – but is it also (unknown to most) the world's greatest – and most unusual – Christian rock band? This course explores the theology, spirituality and politics of U2 expressed through the group's songs, stage performances and human right campaigns. We will travel from the band's origins in the Shalom Christian Fellowship in Dublin to their overtly Christian second album October (1981); the culmination of their superstardom in Joshua Tree (1987); through their techno and ultra-ironic 1990s marked by Zoo-TV, PopMart and Bono's "mock the devil" phase as Mr. MacPhisto; and a return to their roots in All That You Can't Leave Behind (2000) and How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb (2004). Along the way, we will listen to a lot of U2, watch some videos and tour footage – but it's not all fun and games. We will also read serious theological and philosophical tracts on U2 lyrics and explore the band's complicated interweaving of faith, sexuality, grace, fame, doubt, justice, and the meaning of America in a way which makes them a surprisingly popular and poignant spiritual voice in our superficial and materialistic age. We will also delve into the group's human rights and social justice work, from Band Aid in the ‘80s to (Product)RED today, and in particular explore Bono's Christian social justice moorings.

    The Calvert Series: Hilaire Belloc, Editor. The Catholic Church and History. By Hilaire Belloc. Pp. 109. The Catholic Ch1wch and Conversioa. By Gilbert K. Chesterton. Pp. 115. The Catholic Church and The Appeal to Reason. By Leo Ward. Pp. 115. The Catholic Church and Philosophy. By Fr. Vincent McNabb, 0. P. Pp. xviii-124. The Catholic Church and Its Reactions With Science. By Sir Bertram C. A. Windle. Pp. 152. New York: The Macmillan Company, each $1.00. Civilization is rapidly drawing near to the cross-roads where it must again choose between pagan hedonism and Christianity. Hilaire Belloc is keenly aware of this status in modern thought and life and ventured the opinion some time ago that the world was seeking just such a series of books as these. "The time is ripe because of the con­ troversy between Catholic truth and its opponents which has reached today, certainly in England . and . in the United States, a position comparable to that in the Mediterranean world a century before the conversion of that world." The world is in a receptive mood for the answers to the great questions which mankind has always been driven to put to itself. And many are anxious for a clear-cut statement of Catholic doctrine on these points. It is the purpose of this series to give just this. The above-mentioned books but clear the ground of many false notions that have held sway with many non-Catholics; other volumes are to follow if there is sufficient demand for them. Mr. Belloc in his books makes no attempt at positive apologetics in favor of the claims of the Church, rather he refutes the evidence supposedly drawn from history in opposition to her claims, and in so doing lays down general positive principles which may guide the sin­ cere inquirer in his investigation of other points that may disturb him.

  • The Shadow Man Cometh: Flannery O'connor's Influence on U2's
    9/11/2020 The Shadow Man Cometh: Flannery O’Connor’s Influence on U2’s The Joshua Tree @U2 Home Page - U2 News, Lyrics, Tour Dates & more https://www.atu2.com SOUNDBYTE: "I don't believe in wishful thinking. You know, 'Imagine,' that John Lennon song, it's my least favorite of his songs. And he's the man for me, but it's like I don't believe that imagining is enough." — Bono THE SHADOW MAN COMETH: FLANNERY O’CONNOR’S INFLUENCE ON U2’S THE JOSHUA TREE @U2 September 12, 2017by Scott Calhoun Oh, Shadow Man … you’ve haunted me all summer long since I saw you there on the stage and screen on The Joshua Tree Tour 2017. Bono created you this year to help him perform “Exit.” You certainly rose to the occasion, Shadow Man, joining the ranks of MacPhisto, Mirror Ball Man and The Fly. Geoff Wilson was so impressed by how you helped U2 deliver the song that he’s saying “‘Exit’ Is The New ‘Bullet.’” You were the solution to a performance problem. As Bono told Andy Greene of Rolling Stone, he was looking for a way to not hurt himself: I had a lot of self-harm over the years playing that song. I was very glad not to play it for many years.
