A Christian Theology on Man’s Need of Redemption, God’s Redemptive Purpose, and Christ’s Redemptive Work by Dr. John Thomas Wylie Pdf

This publication, “A Christian Theology On Man’s Need Of Redemption, God’s Redemptive Purpose And Christ’s Redemptive Work,” is proposed to cover commonly three points in the field of Christian doctrine. I understand the treatment is insufficient. The idea of the subject blocks sufficiency. Who could give a sufficient treatment to such a subject? There are radical and quick changes occurring in the field of theology. One endeavors the supposition that the vast majority of the progressions are currently the correct way. Men are turning their contemplations toward the need and reality of revelation, of man’s wrongdoing (sin) and powerlessness of both the individual and social disappointment of man without God, of the sufficiency of God’s grace for man’s need, and of the centrality of Jesus Christ and his saving work for mankind’s history. The matter of Christian religious theology is to analyze and set out as exactly as possible, precisely as could be allowed; how God saves men in this truly evil world, not to hypothesize about what God would have done in an entirely different sort of world. It ought to be recalled that theology is concerned, first, last and constantly, with the character of God. Theology is concerned about nothing else other than to express how God saves men in an evil world. Man does not live by bread alone. It is increasingly essential that man have something to live for than that he have something to live on; and existence without God isn’t true life. Present day man needs to confront that reality and acknowledge it. No mention of the work of the “Holy Spirit,” is mentioned for it is covered in a previous publication, entitled: “The Holy Spirit.” Finally, Reverend Dr. Wylie is devoted to publishing books that spread the gospel of Jesus Christ, helping Christians to live as per that gospel, advance restoration, revival in the church, give testimony regarding Jesus Christ, Christian Unity and Fellowship in Christian Love.

The Eucharist Explained by Richard Divozzo Pdf

Perhaps the doctrine of the Catholic Church most baffling to Protestants and the hardest to accept is her teaching on the Eucharist as both a sacrament and (especially) as the actual Body and Blood of Christ as he offered it on the Cross. But what does the Catholic Church really mean by what she teaches about the Eucharist as opposed to what many have supposed her to mean by it? Does the Catholic teaching have any foundation in the Bible? Did Christ himself say anything about the Eucharist? Is the Eucharist only a symbol; or is it, in the Sacrifice of the Mass, the actual Body and Blood of Christ for our salvation? These questions and others are answered for the Protestant inquirer in this book, which the author hopes will at the very least help the reader to understand that what the Catholic Church believes about the Eucharist is not an invention but is rooted in a profound understanding of the Scriptures.

The German Roots of Nineteenth-Century American Theology by Annette G. Aubert Pdf

By exploring the significant influence of German theology, especially mediating theology, on American religious thought, this book sheds new and welcome light on nineteenth-century American Reformed theology. It is the first full-scale examination of that influence on the Mercersburg theology of Emanuel V. Gerhart and the Princeton theology of Charles Hodge. Annette Aubert shows that in the development of their works, Gerhart and Hodge took into account both the tradition of the church and the contemporary theological developments in Europe, especially Germany. Aubert masterfully incorporates the German sources of Schleiermacher, Ullmann, Tholuck, Hagenbach, Dorner, Hengstenberg, and other nineteenth-century German scholars to show that the work of Gerhart and Hodge is much better appreciated when interpreted in a wide intellectual and religious context. Aubert's organic and transatlantic approach offers a deeper understanding of the American Reformed theology of two influential thinkers and illuminates the extent of the cross-fertilization between American and German thought.

Woke Religion: Unmasking the False Gospel of Social Justice by Wes Carpenter Pdf

In today’s society, many, including Christians, want to be “woke.” But has woke become simply another religion, another ploy of Satan’s to shred the fabric of Christianity? As woke critical theory seeps through the teachings of the Church, many Christians are being misled by their own spiritual leaders to take part in the newest attempt for their souls. In Woke Religion: Unmasking the False Gospel of Social Justice, Wes Carpenter unashamedly addresses these heretical teachings, calling on those in spiritual authority to deny woke philosophies and cling to the teachings of Scripture. Follow Wes as he takes the reader from the stirrings of woke critical theory in Church history to the teachings that are pervading the Church today.

This extensive work is an invaluable resource for both seasoned theologians and those new to biblical study.

The book begins with a profound introduction to the core tenets of Christianity, laying a solid foundation for the intricate theological concepts that follow.

Principles of biblical interpretation are explored in detail, providing readers with the tools to understand Scripture within its historical and cultural context.

The book also illuminates God's law and His active role in the world, offering insightful perspectives on His interactions with humanity. The Doctrine of Christ receives thorough attention, exploring Christ's eternal existence, His miraculous birth, sinless nature, and the profound significance of the crucifixion, atonement, resurrection, and ascension. The ongoing role of Christ in heaven is also examined, highlighting His enduring influence in the Christian faith. The Holy Spirit's doctrine is not overlooked, with chapters dedicated to understanding His work, indwelling, and active role today. The Human Doctrine follows, offering an exploration of the creation of humanity, the concept of being made in God’s image, and the descent into sin. In the Doctrine of Redemption, readers will find an in-depth analysis of atonement, ransom, reconciliation, sanctification, and the multifaceted nature of salvation, including perspectives from Calvinism, Reformed Calvinism, and Arminianism. The book also ventures into Angelology, providing insights into the nature of angels and the roles of key archangels like Michael and Gabriel. The Doctrine of Satan and Demonology are addressed, shedding light on the essence, strategies, and realm of demonic forces. Ecclesiology is explored in depth, covering the origins, essence, and functions of the Church, the significance of church membership, and the dynamics of church leadership, along with an examination of first-century church administration as a model for today. Finally, the book culminates in a detailed study of Eschatology—the Doctrine of the End Times. This includes interpretations of prophecy, the signs of the end times, the Rapture, the Tribulation period, the Millennium, and the various divine judgments leading to eternal punishment or life.

A Theology for the Church by Dr. Daniel L. Akin Pdf

The revised edition of A Theology for the Church retains its original structure, organized under these traditional theological categories: revelation, God, humanity, Christ, the Holy Spirit, salvation, the church, and last things. Each chapter within these sections contains answers to the following four questions: What does the Bible say? What has the church believed? How does it all fit together? How does this doctrine impact the church today? Contributions from leading Baptist thinkers R. Albert Mohler, Jr., Paige Patterson, and Mark Dever among others will also appeal to the broader evangelical community. Included in this revision are new chapters on theological method from a missional perspective (Bruce Ashford and Keith Whitfield) and theology of creation, providence, and Sabbath that engages current research in science and philosophy (Chad Owen Brand). Chapters on special revelation (David Dockery) and human nature (John Hammett) have also been updated.

Divine Election by Eduardo J. Echeverria Pdf

This dogmatic study addresses two perennial questions. First, how do we reconcile God's sovereignty with human freedom, not just in general, but particularly with respect to the Church's full understanding of God's plan of salvation as a work of grace? Second (and equally crucial) is the question of how we reconcile God's universal salvific will with the mystery of predestination, election, and reprobation. The author of this study does theology within the normative tradition of confessional Catholicism, and thus in the light of Catholic teaching. But this study is also an ecumenical work, indeed, a work in receptive ecumenism, and hence he listens attentively to the reflections and arguments not only of his fellow Catholic theologians (Matthias Joseph Scheeben and Hans Urs von Balthasar) but also theologians of the Evangelical and Reformed traditions (John Calvin, Herman Bavinck, Karl Barth, and G. C. Berkouwer). This book concludes with a Catholic synthesis regarding the doctrine of divine election in dogmatic and ecumenical perspective.
