The Wild Gospel by Alison Morgan Pdf

A prophetic challenge to the Western church. The Christian faith is always subversive to the dominant world view. Jesus overturned every assumption which stopped people experiencing the living reality of God - the heart of truth. Sadly, the Western world has reduced "truth" to the merely rational, and then discarded it as inadequate. In Africa, and other parts of the world where God's truth has never been straitjacketed in this way, the church is characterised by a joy now absent in the West. Western culture has limited what we can believe and receive. Can we: Burst free from this restrictive secular framework? Learn not only to know truth, but to feel it, and live it? Live our faith in such a way that it becomes real to those around us? Alison Morgan shows that Jesus lived free from the culturally imposed norms which restrict our understanding of truth. Examining church history, prophecy past and present, the state of our culture and of the church today, and drawing on personal experience and the experience of others, Alison blends analysis and imagination, history and poetry in this prophetic challenge to Western Christians.

Biblical Interpretation in Early Christian Gospels Volume 1 by Thomas Hatina Pdf

This collection of essays is the second volume in a projected series of five volumes that gather together recent research by leading scholars on the narrative function of embedded Jewish scripture texts (quotations or allusions) in early Christian Gospels. While the contributors employ a diverse range of methods, their research is directed towards considering the function of embedded scripture texts in the context of the Gospels as self-contained narratives written and read/heard in their early Christian settings. The essays are arranged according to their appropriate methodological categories.

The Gospel of Mark – Eternity and Readiness by George Andrew Pdf

In Mark's gospel, a little over sixteen chapters, God messages Its plan regarding eternity via Jesus. It is Mark's description of Jesus's sermon on the topic of His experience of eternity. As the first gospel writer, Mark initiates the discussion of daily life (physical existence) and spirituality (holiness) and their relationship as dramatized by Jesus. His vocation of readiness meets God's flowing plan daily and proposes the same readiness for us. George Andrew's journal undertakes to understand this intersection of eternity and readiness. He proposes the lifeblood of faith as the sole root of readiness. He also suggests numerous points of view in his eight-year encounter with long-used fundamental words and concepts. Engaging Mark for over eight years, the author transports the reader through the gospel and to the Mystery of Life called God. The source of the book is the existential experience faced by most men and women. Simply, we experience the world from dawn until dusk daily as primarily uncaring. This is true whether you're rich or poor, any color, age, creed, or gender, living or near death, whatever your ancestry. If you can fully grasp this, you have some choices. First, you can succumb to the terror of life and turn into an opportunist, as a vegetable, a person with no moral compass. Or second, you may use the tools that life readily offers--reason, senses, yes, even religion--and think matters through to their ends, go the next step, and unearth what is meet and right to do in order to live life as a human being. This is the beginning of faith, and what Jesus pointed to as the vineyard. This book calls us to a muscular Christianity--one that is strong and of today, and enables us to address the spiritual exhaustion, shallowness, and the questioning torpidity of our time.

The Fourfold Gospel by Francis Watson Pdf

This groundbreaking approach to the study of the fourfold gospel offers a challenging alternative to prevailing assumptions about the creation of the gospels and their portraits of Jesus. How and why does it matter that we have these four gospels? Why were they placed alongside one another as four parallel yet diverse retellings of the same story? Francis Watson, widely regarded as one of the foremost New Testament scholars of our time, explains that the four gospels were chosen to give a portrait of Jesus. He explores the significance of the fourfold gospel's plural form for those who constructed it and for later Christian communities, showing that in its plurality it bears definitive witness to what God has done in Jesus Christ. Watson focuses on reading the gospels as a group rather than in isolation and explains that the fourfold gospel is greater than, and other than, the sum of its individual parts. Interweaving historical, exegetical, and theological perspectives, this book is accessibly written for students and pastors but is also of interest to professors and scholars.
