  • Lesslie Newbigin's Missional Ecclesiology Explored
    Preston Graham Jr. DM44, Prof. Alan Falconer Lesslie Newbigin’s Missional Ecclesiology Explored: A Christo-Centric Proposal For Ecumenism in Today’s Global Context of Spirituality Awe came upon everyone… All who believed were together and had all things in common; they would sell their possessions and goods and distribute the proceeds to all, as any had need. Day by day, as they spent much time together with one accord in the temple, they broke bread at home and ate their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and having favor with all the people. And day by day the Lord added to them those who were being saved. Acts 2:43-47 Such is the vision we get of the ascended ministry of Christ in the present redemptive age at Pentecost It is the description of a Christo-centric, sacramental, confessional, multi-cultural and organic kind of unity that was in, not of, and for the world to the “praise of God” and in “favor with all the people.” It was, in summary, the description of a missional ecclesiology! And according to Lesslie Newbigin, it was an ecclesiology that had been tragically lost needing to be rediscovered in today’s global city. The truth is… that the unity of the Church is something given to it at its inception, and given by its Lord. That unity had its outward form, first in the fact that the first disciples were visibly grouped around one Lord, and then in the close-knit fellowship of the days immediately following Pentecost, in the sharing in a common baptism, a common tradition of teaching, a common Supper, and a common acknowledgment of the leadership of the Apostles.1 And does anyone doubt for a moment that if today’s global Christian ecclesia looked more like Acts 2, then large numbers of people in every place and culture would know that Jesus is real and that Christianity is true? that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.

  • 90. Redemption Page 1
    90. Redemption Page 1 90. REDEMPTION Summary 1. The word redemption means to bUy back something or somebody for a ransom or a price. In the biblical tradition the word refers to the action of God in delivering human beings from the bondage to sin. 2. In the seventeenth-century the theology of redemption was influenced by St. Anselm, St. Thomas and the Council of Trent. 3. In his doctrinal writings De La Salle stresses the doctrine of redemption as mystery with some indications of a theological perspective. 4. In his devotional writing De La Salle stresses the passion of Christ and his death on the cross as the central act in the mystery of redemption. 5. De La Salle considered the ministry of the Brothers in Christian education as a way of cooperating with the redemptive work of Christ. 6. Although theology today would put more emphasis on the resurrection as an element in redemption, there is much in De La Salle's writing that remains valuable for the Lasallian educator. 1. THE MEANING OF THE WORD "REDEMPTION", FROM THE BffiLE TO NICAEA In a general way, redelllptioll has the meaning of to God's plan to save his human creation from the buying back something or somebody held in forfeit evil consequences of sin. for a pledge.

  • Covenant of Redemption
    MEANING OF KEY WORDS COVENANT: Agreement REDEMPTION: To buy back WORKS: merited favor GRACE: unmerited favor COVENANT (meaning) : Basically, a “covenant” is an agreement between two parties to fulfill obligations made one to another. WCF 7:1 The distance between God and the creature is so great, that although reasonable creatures do owe obedience unto Him as their Creator, yet they could never have any fruition of Him as their blessedness and reward, but by some voluntary condescension on God's part, which He hath been pleased to express by way of covenant. David Garner …God acted. He stepped down; he bent over toward us. Since we could in no way get to him, he came to us. He chose to lower himself to our level, and did so out of his own pleasure and wisdom (see Ephesians 1:3–14). His stooping instrument of choice was the covenant. COVENANT (defintion) OT: The Hebrew word for covenant is always BERITH, a word of uncertain derivation. • The most general opinion is that it is derived from the Hebrew verb BARAH, to cut, and therefore contains a reminder of the ceremony mentioned in Genesiis 15:17. • Some, however, prefer to think that it is derived from the Assyrian word BERITU, meaning “to bind.” This would at once point to the covenant as a bond. DIATHEKE: properly, a set-agreement having complete terms determined by the initiating party, which also are fully affirmed by the one entering the agreement. COVENANT OF REDEMPTION THE PARTIES OF THE COVENANT OF REDEMPTION The covenant of redemption is the agreement made between the members of the Trinity in order to bring us salvation.

  • Appendix 1 the Most Holy Trinity – Teaching Points
    Appendix 1 The Most Holy Trinity – Teaching Points ¾ The mystery of the Holy Trinity is the central mystery of Christian faith and life. ¾ The mystery of the Holy Trinity is the mystery of God in Himself. ¾ It is the source of all the other mysteries of the Faith. ¾ It is the most fundamental and essential truth of the Faith. ¾ What we know about the Trinity has been revealed by God Himself. ¾ There is but one, true God. ¾ There are three persons in the one God and each of these persons is fully God. ¾ The three persons in the one God are: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Note: Terms such as God the Creator, God the Redeemer, and God the Sanctifier, do not say Who God is, but rather point to functions commonly attributed to one of the Divine Persons. Note to Catechist: While we commonly attribute certain works to one or another person of the Trinity, all three Divine Persons are involved in creation, redemption, and sanctification. The Divine Persons are distinct, but undivided. We have a responsibility to use the correct vocabulary, i.e. the vocabulary of the Church, when referring to the persons of the Trinity, and in all catechesis. We must not shy away from, or compromise, the language of the Most Holy Trinity, i.e. the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. This language we clearly see in Sacred Scripture! This language speaks to Who God is! Learning the correct terminology for God affects both our relationship with Him and with one another as sons and daughters of God the Father and brothers and sisters of Jesus Christ, in the Holy Spirit.

  • Sanctification
    SANCTIFICATION AS TAUGHT IN THE SCRIPTURES —BY— PHILIP MAURO COUNSELLOR-AT-LAW GLASGOW: PICKERING & INGLIS, PRINTERS AND PUBLISHERS. LONDON: ALFRED HOLNESS, 14 PATERNOSTER ROW, E.C. NEW YORK: GOSPEL PUBLISHING HOUSE, (D. T. BASS), BINGHAMPTON. And may be ordered through most Booksellers and Colporteurs. SANCTIFICATION As Taught in the Scriptures By PHILLIP MAURO I hope that no one will read this paper in the expectation of obtaining the writer’s view of sanctification. If any has, I hope he will be disappointed; because I have earnestly asked the lord to deliver me from opinions, and particularly from my own opinions, having learned how utterly untrustworthy they are. Man is very ready to form his opinions on every subject, and having formed them he clings to them tenaciously, and contends for them vigorously and generally the more so when he has little support for them. I desire to present this subject of sanctification in such a way that if any one has any controversy about it his controversy will be with the Spirit of God, and with the Word of God, in which the Spirit has revealed His mind on the subject. Our purpose is simply to get an answer to the question: What is meant in Scripture by the words “sanctify,” “sanctified,” and “sanctification” or “holiness?” (which is the same word in the original). Before taking up that question I wish to direct attention, briefly, to an important principle which is frequently disregarded, namely, the principle of stating doctrine in the words of Scripture and, conversely, of using always the words of Scripture in the same sense in which the Spirit uses them.

  • Biblical and Theological Terms for Incoming Seminarians
    Biblical and Theological Terms For Incoming Seminarians The intent of this glossary is to provide simple definitions for the important biblical and theological terms that incoming seminarians need to understand, in the context of AGTS, as they begin their studies. Words not in this list are either the professor’s responsibility to explain as a part of seminary education or are the student’s responsibility to look up in a dictionary. The definitions here are simplified versions of the most likely uses in the context of AGTS classes, early in a student’s first semester, and are based on Dr. James Hernando’s Dictionary of Hermeneutics where possible, which is a recommended resource. The * indicates a word is defined elsewhere in the list. a priori: an assumption or presupposition* someone has before beginning a study or discussion. allegorical: not the literal sense but portraying spiritual truths metaphorically* without reference to any actual historical events or people. An allegory never actually happened, like Pilgrim’s Progress. The Bible stories did happen unless otherwise indicated and so cannot be allegories. However, they can be typological.* anachronistic: not using technically accurate terminology for the time period. An example is reading NT terms or place names back into the OT context. apocalyptic: a type of biblical literature that is a dramatic, visionary, depiction of the ultimate cosmic victory of God over evil, using imagery that is significant to that time and culture, such as is used in the book of Revelation. Apocrypha: books written in the Intertestamental Period considered authoritative scriptures (sacred writings) by Roman Catholicism but not by Protestants or Jews and are called deutero*- canonicals by the Catholics.

  • Concept of Redemption in the World Religions: a Comparative Analysis of the Account of Redemption in Semitic Religions and Indian Religions
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 21, Issue 3, Ver. I (Mar. 2016) PP 53-64 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Concept of Redemption in the World Religions: A Comparative Analysis of the Account of Redemption in Semitic Religions and Indian Religions Binoj Mathew, Research Scholar, Bharatiyar University, Coimbatore. I. Introduction The ultimate aim of any religion is salvation / redemption of those who believe in it. They embark various paths to experience redemption according to their beliefs and the life of the founders and prominent figures of these religions. Redemption is a common word in the world religions including the Semitic Religions and the Indian Religions. The Semitic Religions are Judaism, Christianity and Islam and the Indian Religions includes Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism and Sikhism. Semitic Religions are monotheistic for they believe in one God. They hold fast to the belief of the creation of the world out of nothing and God alone is eternal and all the other things like soul, matter, and scripture are created. Whereas the Indian Religions like Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism have their origin from Hinduism. According to Hinduism, God, Soul, Matter and Scripture are eternal. They believe not in one God but many. In Semitic Religion, salvation is the saving of the soul from sin and its consequences. It may also be called „deliverance‟ or „redemption‟ from sin and its effects. Salvation is considered to be caused either by the free will and grace of a deity or by personal efforts through prayer, asceticism, or some combination of the two.

  • Creation and Redemption: a Study of Kingdom Interplay
    JETS 35/1 (March 1992) 3-17 CREATION AND REDEMPTION: A STUDY OF KINGDOM INTERPLAY H. WAYNE HOUSE* The subject of the created order has received considerable popular atten- tion through the political awareness campaigns of environmental or ecology organizations in recent years. Some additional and related interest in crea- tion has been invigorated because of the rise and growth of new-age religion. In the Church, however, there has generally been little discussed in this area, other than the creation/evolution controversy. Instead the popular and scholarly interest of the Church has centered on the new creation in Christ and the kingdom of God to come. God's providential kingdom, his creation of all things (creatio ex nihilo) and their maintenance by him {creatio continua) are relegated to minor interest. This has not always been the case. I. THE EARLY APPROACH T O CREATION AND REDEMPTION 1. Creation and redemption in the early Christian Church. The broad themes of creation and redemption have occupied the attention of Chris- tian theology from its very inception. The NT writers weaved these sub- jects from the fabric of Hebrew literature and the teaching of our Lord. The early Church fathers spoke on both themes also, carefully charting a course between the dualism regarding creation rampant in Hellenistic philosophy and gnosticism1 and avoiding the inadequate redemptive views of the pagan cults and mysteries tied in with monistic nature religion.2 These early Christian theologians were careful to distinguish between God * Wayne House, an author and lecturer living at 4996 Wagon Rim Court SE, Salem, Oregon 97301, delivered this presidential address at the 43rd annual meeing of ETS on November 21, 1991, in Kansas City, Missouri.
