The Gospel of Judas

A discussion of the work's historical and theological relevance shows that while this new 'Gospel' does not provide any reliable information about the historical figures of Jesus and Judas, it does nevertheless afford a fascinating glimpse into the conflicts between Ghristianity and Gnosticism in the second century.

Thomas Merton and Alfred Delp
81 Truth Hidden in Untruth: Thomas Merton and Alfred Delp MARY FRANCES COADY In a journal entry dated September 15, 1962, Thomas Merton notes that the manuscript of 'the book of Fr. Delp'1 arrived that day and that he is to write a preface to it. On this particular day, Merton seems to be concerned about his own psychological well-being as well as the future of his work. He is also in his usual state of unease with regard to the Cistercian Order; changes have begun in an effort at renewal - there is to be less distinction between choir monks and lay brothers, for example, a move that affects him directly as novice master - as well as unease with the political situation in the United States, with the race problem in high tension, the nuclear build-up and the threat of war. There are also other writing projects, all of which he considers dispensable. By coincidence, the date of that journal entry, September 15, was the birthday of Alfred Delp, the priest whose manuscript Merton was about to read. Had Delp still been alive in 1962, he would have turned 55 that day. (Merton at the time was 47.) Eleven days later, Merton writes, Reading the magnificent Prison Meditations of Fr. Delp .... Superb, powerful material. Totally different from the rather depressing false optimism of our establishment. Here a true optimism of one who really sees through the evil and irreligion of our condition and finds himself in Christ-through poverty, crying out from the abyss, answered and rescued by the Spirit. -

Advent Ethics
Study Guides for Advent Ethics These guides integrate Bible study, prayer, and worship to help us explore how Advent, the first season of the church year, causes us to reexamine our desires as we prepare to welcome Christ, the Desire of Christian Reflection Nations. Use them individually or in a series. You may reproduce A Series in Faith and Ethics them for personal or group use. Redeeming Time 2 The church year is most meaningful, formative, and transfor- mative when we embrace its seasons and their rhythms. It is necessarily communal, pushing us back to Christ, to the stories of his life and to the rites by which his disciples reenact his life and enter into it through worship. What Are We Waiting For? 4 Through images of the mountain of the Lord’s house, the peaceful kingdom, the desert highway, and the child Immanuel, the prophet Isaiah describes the coming of the new son of David and the establishment of the reign of God. Isaiah’s oracles in the Advent liturgy challenge us to become the bearers of good news to the poor and the marginalized of society. The Three Advents 6 For Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153) and his modern interpreter, Thomas Merton, the season of Advent is a “sacrament” of the presence of God in his world, in the mystery of Christ at work through his Church, preparing in a hidden, obscure way for the final manifestation of his kingdom. Advent of the Heart 8 Condemned to die in a Nazi prison, Father Alfred Delp discovered that Advent is the time for being deeply shaken— the time not only to remember the birth of the Christ Child, but to participate in this unfolding and ultimate revelation of God that began in the Holy Night. -
Ecumenism of Blood: the Martyrdom of Alfred Delp and Helmuth James Von Moltke
CANADIAN THEOLOGICAL REVIEW | 2014 c Volume 3 • Issue 1 Ecumenism of Blood: The Martyrdom of Alfred Delp and Helmuth James Von Moltke Peter Nguyen Creighton University Abstract This article investigates the ecumenical dimension of the mar- tyrdom of the Jesuit priest Alfred Delp and the Evangelische layman Helmuth James von Moltke. Delp and Moltke were leaders in the anti-Nazi resistant group the Kreisau Circle. They organized and planned a post-Nazi German society based on Catholic Social Teaching, Protestant social ethics, and human- istic socialism. Together they were imprisoned, tried, and sentenced. Moltke was executed on 23 January 1945, and Delp was executed on 2 February 1945. This article approaches the collaboration and martyrdoms of Delp and Moltke as an ecu- menical phenomenon. It highlights the contribution of Delp and Moltke to the work of the Kreisau Circle. It then gives prom- inence to the spiritual collaboration between Moltke and Delp when they were imprisoned together from September 1944 to January 1945. The article concludes with a theological inter- pretation of Delp and Moltke’s witnesses unto death as being guided by the Holy Spirit in common prayer and service. Delp and Moltke revealed that the road to Christian unity involves acts of prayer, self-giving, and suffering together. In their joint witness in life and death, Delp and Moltke show that Christians must remain anchored in Christ’s love and open to the future of the Christian body under the guidance of the Spirit. Introduction In a homily at the Roman Coliseum on 7 May 2000, Pope John Paul II points to the witness of the martyrs as the way for unity among Christians. -
Religion and Reform
Religion and Reform Edited by Ronald A. Simkins and Zachary B. Smith 12. Broken Bodies, Healed Body Contemporary Martyrdom and Ecumenism Peter Nguyen, S.J., Creighton University Abstract I demonstrate that contemporary martyrdom is a form of ecumenism because it is a dialogue amongst Christians from different backgrounds, founded on fidelity to the ultimate religious truth – the sovereignty of Jesus Christ. The most striking form of ecumenism is that of the martyrs who reveal the truth of all humanity’s communion with Christ. This paper involves four steps. The first part acknowledges the scandal of early modern Christians making martyrs of one another which helped to divide the Christian body. The second demonstrates, according to John Paul II, that the martyrs of the twentieth century have contributed to the ecumenical movement. The third analyzes the shared martyrdom between the German Jesuit Alfred Delp and the Lutheran Helmuth James von Moltke, executed for being members of an anti-Nazi resistance group. The fourth concludes that these martyrs witnessed the truth of Christ, who is the universal truth that links another with oneself in a shared humanity. Keywords: martyrdom, ecumenism, John Paul II, Alfred Delp, Helmuth James von Moltke 171 Religion and Reform Introduction The word “martyrdom” is a contested term. For some contemporaries, martyrdom evokes stories of past heroic figures, and for others, the willingness to cling to a truth at the cost of status, honor, and life epitomizes an uncomfortable and outdated conviction that sanctions disrespect or intolerance toward other beliefs or value systems. Since 9/11 and the ensuing bloodshed in the Middle East, martyrdom has been popularly associated with politically and religiously driven fanatics who shed the blood of others and themselves. -
