A Christian Theology Of The Cross

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

A CHRISTIAN THEOLOGY OF THE CROSS presents three basic standards for discussing the subject and object "God." It underscores the connection between God's approval of Abel's offering and the establishment of the priesthood and names Genesis 4:7 as the foundation of the principal doctrines of Christian Salvation. It stresses the importance of Christian freedom and argues that the doctrine of existentialism is rooted in Genesis 4:9b. This book speaks directly to those who are spiritually hungry and thirsty for the Word of God in the twenty-first century. The reader will discover that the author is an analytical thinker. George asserts that the ambiguities of Abel's offering don't negate the concept of his priesthood. He champions the belief that the doctrine of the universality of salvation is a crucial divide between Judaism and Christianity. He insists that the Gospel demands that Christians renounce their hate and intolerance.

Christian Theology After Christendom

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Christian Theology after Christendom: Engaging the Thought of Douglas John Hall brings together contemporary thinkers to engage and build upon Douglas John Hall’s work—and to take up his challenge to reclaim a contextual and de-colonizing theology of the cross as a means to speak to the realities of life and faith today. With a focus on contemporary issues, this edited collection critically analyzes and deconstructs the centuries-old colonial triumphalism of Christian theology and the church in the West. This book seeks to frame present day crises in ways that honor a deeply rooted theologia crucis that does not colonize the “other.” It explores constructive decolonizing possibilities for Christian theology at the end of Christendom.

The Liberative Cross

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

The Liberative Cross offers a theological grounding of the orthopraxy that calls North American Korean women to live as imago Dei, mirroring the perichoretic fellowship of the triune God in contemporary social relations through living in imitatio crucis and imitatio relationis. In so doing, this book emphasizes three elements. First, an appropriate theology of the cross meets the challenges or concerns of developing reality. Second, it is a feminist theology in the sense that it seeks to retrieve a theology of the cross that is life-giving and liberating for women. Third, it is a social trinitarian approach to the theology of the cross that can reveal the essence of God to be in relation, mutuality, and community in diversity. The constructive work achieved in this book makes a great contribution to pastoral and ecclesial praxis and imagination.

The Theology Of The Cross And Marx S Anthropology

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

This is a fascinating, major articulation of a contemporary theology of the cross in response to the soteriological challenge of Karl Marx's anthropological Weltanschauung. The author focuses primarily on the much neglected «Early Writings» (1844 Manuscripts), in which Marx himself provides a necessary humanistic critique of «official» Marxism. The theology of the cross, which the author articulates, is centered in Luther's theologia crucis, Moltmann's «crucified God» and Latin American (liberation) theology's «divine identification and solidarity with the poor and the oppressed». Specifically, the context of the work is the Caribbean and the Americas.

BOOK EXCERPT:

Gudmundsdottir argues that a feminist theology of the cross serves a dual purpose in feminist hristology: it discloses the patriarchal distortion of traditional christology, and can also reveal lost dimensions in the understanding of the person and work of Jesus Christ.
