Описание: What kind of authority does Scripture have? How is Scripture's authority to be negotiated in relation to other sources of authority? And what are the implications of confessing the Bible to be authoritative? The Bible: Culture, Community and Society seeks to answer these questions, covering three core themes. First, reading the Bible in the context of modernity - the challenges the intellectual history of modernity has posed to the Bible's authority and how historical work can co-exist with a commitment to the Bible as the Word of God. Secondly, the Bible as a text that forms the church community - how the Bible as an authoritative text shapes a culture. Thirdly, reading the Bible as a public text and the challenges posed by holding to the Bible as the Word of God in a religiously diverse context. The highly distinguished contributors include Ben Quash, David Ferguson, Angus Paddison and Zo? Bennett.

Описание: Es ist Freitagabend im herbstlichen M nchen. Ein Taxifahrer wird tot in einer Einfahrt gefunden und Kommissar Wengler muss sein Wochenwende verschieben, um diesen Mord aufzukl ren. Es gibt mehrere Personen im Umfeld des Toten, die ein Motiv haben k nnten. Aber wie es oft der Fall ist, wird alles immer komplizierter, je n her man sich der L sung w hnt. Der Sohn des Toten scheint keine gro e Hilfe zu sein, im Gegenteil. Auch die neue Bekanntschaft des Opfers bringt nur noch mehr Unklarheiten. Man erz hlt dem Kommissar Halbwahrheiten, aus denen er sich die richtigen und wichtigen Sequenzen selbst heraussuchen muss. Der einzig belegbare Beweis ist die Tatwaffe, ein mazedonisches Messer. Auch dieses mal muss er wieder in ein Umfeld eintauchen, das ihm bisher fremd war, um diesen Fall zum Abschluss zu bringen.

Описание: Faith and Slavery in the Presbyterian Diaspora considers how, in areas as diverse as the New Hebrides, Scotland, the United States, and East Central Africa, men s and women s shared Presbyterian faith conditioned their interpretations of and interactions with the institution of chattel slavery. The chapters highlight how Presbyterians reactions to slavery which ranged from abolitionism, to indifference, to support reflected their considered application of the principles of the Reformed Tradition to the institution. Consequently, this collection reveals how the particular ways in which Presbyterians framed the Reformed Tradition made slavery an especially problematic and fraught issue for adherents to the faith. Faith and Slavery, by situating slavery at the nexus of Presbyterian theology and practice, offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between religion and slavery. It reverses the all too common assumption that religion primarily served to buttress existing views on slavery, by illustrating how groups and individuals reactions to slavery emerged from their understanding of the Presbyterian faith. The collection s geographic reach encompassing the experiences of people from Europe, Africa, America, and the Pacific filtered through the lens of Presbyterianism also highlights the global dimensions of slavery and the debates surrounding it. The institution and the challenges it presented, Faith and Slavery stresses, reflected less the peculiar conditions of a particular place and time, than the broader human condition as people attempt to understand and shape their world."
We use such words as "health," "disease," and "illness" all the time without stopping to consider exactly what we understand by them. Yet their meanings are far from straightforward, and disagreements over them have important practical consequences in health care and bioethics.
In this book Neil Messer develops a distinctive and innovative theological account of these concepts. He engages in earnest with debates in the philosophy of medicine and disability studies and draws on a wide array of theological resources including Barth, Bonhoeffer, Aquinas, and recent disability theologies.
By enabling us to understand health in the wider perspective of the flourishing and ultimate destiny of human beings, Messer's Flourishing sheds new light on a range of practical bioethical issues and dilemmas.
