Abstract

Based on exhaustive reference to primary source material, this volume explores the relationships between religious mythologies and religious philosophical system within the theistic traditions in India. Not content merely to explore these relationships, the author further examines the relevance of mythology and philosophy in a discussion of salvation—salvation understood in its sociological, eschatological, and philosophical senses. The treatment of myth and philosophy is comprehensive in scope, pulling together a great variety of sources and commentary, and illuminating them for the Western reader. This study will be of interest both to students of Indian religions and to students of comparative religion interested in creating a context for the discussion of Eastern and Western religions.

Abstract

In Physicalist Soteriology in Hilary of Poitiers , Ellen Scully presents Hilary as a representative of the “mystical” or “physical” trajectory of patristic soteriology most often associated with the Greek fathers. Scully shows that Hilary’s physicalism is unique, both in its Latin non-Platonic provenance and its conceptual foundation, namely that the incarnation has salvific effects for all humanity because Christ’s body contains every human individual. Hilary’s soteriological conviction that all humans are present in Christ’s body has theological ramifications that expand beyond soteriology to include christology, eschatology, ecclesiology, and Trinitarian theology. In detailing these ramifications, Scully illumines the pervasive centrality of physicalism in Hilary’s theology while correcting standard soteriological presentations of physicalism as an exclusively Greek phenomenon.

Abstract

This work suggests that it is possible to maintain that Paul had a lively interest in the salvation of the individual, without having to revert to traditional Lutheran interpretations of the text. It focuses on three important texts in Romans.

Abstract

This book presents the development of a theological reading strategy in conversation with contemporary hermeneutical theories. Using that as a model, Gen 1-11 is read as a unified text refracted through the prism of textuality from a canonical approach.

Abstract

The prevalence of salvation language in the first letter of Peter has often been acknowledged though rarely investigated in depth. In this book Martin Williams presents an account exploring the concept of salvation in this theologically rich letter. He brings together the disciplines of hermeneutics, New Testament studies, and systematic and historical theology in order to explore the language of salvation which resonates within the text. The book also elaborates on a methodological level the segregation which has arisen between biblical studies and theological studies. In doing this, Williams identifies a basis for how there can be interaction between these two different viewpoints. This book will be a valuable resource for students and scholars interested in the exegesis and theology of 1 Peter, the doctrine of salvation and biblical interpretation.

Abstract

La doctrine de la Création après avoir connu une longue éclipse, revient à I'avant-plan de la réflexion théologique et catéchétique. Elle y est conviée par une conjoncture où en tous domaines, s'opère une redécouverte du cosmos. L'objectif de la session théologique, organisée par l'École des sciences philosophiques et religieuses des F.U.S.L., a dès lors été, d'abord, de bien entendre la sollicitation multiple ainsi adressée à la pensée chrétienne. En particulier, il s'est agi de faire le point sur les avancées de la recherche dans les champs de l'astrophysique et de la cosmologie, ainsi que sur les interrogations proprement philosophiques qui en naissent ; d'offrir des voies de réappropriation du donné biblique en matière de visée des origines et de l'origine ; de méditer sur la confession biblique du monde comme création en tant que mode spécifique d'expérience du tout ; de déployer les axes majeurs d'une théologie articulant, à frais nouveaux, Création et Salut, essentiellement au moyen de la catégorie apocalyptique d'accomplissement. Il apparaîtra, au terme du parcours, que penser et reconnaître le monde comme, « réalité tierce » entre l'homme et Dieu, restituer au cosmos une dimension « salutaire » propre, constitue un acte audacieux et réflexif, décisif pour la vitalité du christianisme aujourd'hui

Abstract

Many have worried that the ubiquitous practice of psychology and psychotherapy in America has corrupted religious faith, eroded civic virtue and weakened community life. But an examination of the history of three major psycho-spiritual movements since World War II - Alcoholics Anonymous, The Salvation Army's outreach to homeless men, and the 'clinical pastoral education' movement - reveals the opposite. These groups developed a practical religious psychology that nurtured faith, fellowship and personal responsibility. They achieved this by including religious traditions and spiritual activities in their definition of therapy and by putting clergy and lay believers to work as therapists. Under such care, spiritual and emotional growth reinforced each other. Thanks to these innovations, the three movements succeeded in reaching millions of socially alienated and religiously disenchanted Americans. They demonstrated that religion and psychology, although antithetical in some eyes, could be blended effectively to foster community, individual responsibility and happier lives.
