Описание: This inspiring collection of essays spells out the relevance of John Calvin's theology for today in three areas: Faith ? Calvin's theology asks how God deals with the persistent presence of human sin. For Calvin, the chief end of life is to know God and devote our life to his glory. The still topical point is that we are freed from our fixation with ourselves, thereby recognising and living out our true reality in relation to God. Ecumenism ? The unity of the Church in Christ is of central importance to Calvin. We must do our utmost to make it visible. In Calvin's view, if there is agreement in the understanding of God and grace, all other differences have no divisive importance. This still characterises Reformed understanding today. Public responsibility ? Calvin posed the question about the church's public responsibility as no other Reformer did. Part 3 reveals the sources of the worldwide impact of Calvin's and Reformed theology on politics, the law, scholarship and the organising of life in society, including civil society.

Описание: In the twenty-first century, the word Presbyterian is virtually synonymous with "austere" and "parochial." These associations are by no means historically unfounded, as early Canadian Presbyterians insisted on Sabbath observance and had a penchant for inter- and intra-denominational disagreement. However, many other ideas circulated within this religious community`s collective psyche. Boundless Dominion delves into the elaborate worldview that galvanized nineteenth-century Canadian Presbyterianism. Denis McKim uncovers a vibrant print culture and Presbyterian support for such initiatives as Indigenous evangelism, temperance advocacy, and anti-slavery activism and finds that many of the denomination`s characteristics contrast sharply with its dour and quarrelsome reputation. Tracing the themes of providence, politics, nature, and history in Presbyterian communities across five provinces, from Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick to Lower and Upper Canada, this book reveals that at the heart of this denomination lay a desire to facilitate God`s dominion and to promote Protestant piety across northern North America and beyond. Through an innovative approach to the study of religious ideas, Boundless Dominion highlights the permeability of borders and the myriad ways in which nineteenth-century Canada - including its Presbyterian community - shaped and was shaped by interactions with the wider world.

Описание: Hier comme aujourd’hui, le parrainage de bapteme et la parente spirituelle qui en decoule constituent dans le monde chretien un systeme d’alliances sociales entre familles et individus. Par-dela les motivations religieuses de l’institution baptismale, le parrainage est un instrument au service de strategies sociales, economiques et politiques. Depuis une dizaine d’annees, les sciences sociales (histoire, anthropologie, sociologie et sciences politiques) ont fait de ce sujet un champ de recherches particulierement dynamique a l’echelle internationale. Cet ouvrage collectif reunit des contributions de chercheurs de onze pays europeens et americains relevant de disciplines differentes. Il a pour ambition d’etudier les pratiques de parrainage dans une perspective de long terme allant du XVIe siecle a nos jours. Il propose, pour la premiere fois, des comparaisons sur des terrains locaux et entre les differentes confessions chretiennes : catholicisme, orthodoxies et protestantismes. Il entend aussi mettre en perspective les realites europeennes anciennes avec les usages du parrainage tels que les ont importes mais surtout adaptes les societes coloniales d’Amerique. Ce livre constitue une etape dans une reflexion collective sur le parrainage qui interessera tous ceux, chercheurs, acteurs publics, citoyens, qui reflechissent a la construction du lien social dans les siecles passes et dans le monde contemporain. Il met en lumiere la souplesse de cette institution qui a assure jusqu’a aujourd’hui sa perennite tout comme l’inventivite avec laquelle les populations s’en sont empare.
