Word Become Flesh: Dimensions of Christology by Brian McDermott Pdf

As a text for a basic Christology course this work orients the student of theology by tracing the principal developments in the New Testament and in later Church tradition, giving attention to some of the principal concerns of contemporary culture and the way some of the present-day forms of Christology try to respond to those concerns. It therefore offers a range of contemporary Christological proposals rather than one to the exclusion of others. It also seeks to reunite study of Christ's person" with his "work" through greater attention to soteriology than often happens in traditional Christology. "

The Word Became Flesh by Graham Jackman Pdf

The title of this book, taken from John 1:14, is normally taken to refer to the notion of 'incarnation', which understands 'the word' as a pre-existent Son of God and 'becoming flesh' as the transformation of this 'word' from a heavenly, divine existence to the life of a human being. Against this conventional interpretation the author argues that John's use of the term 'word' really does refer to an act of speaking, God's expression of His will, and that 'becoming flesh' describes the realisation or embodiment of His intentions, from creation onward, in a form perceptible to human senses, not only in the 'flesh' of Jesus but also in historical reality in the world of men. This has implications for other aspects of John's Gospel, including its historicity, its literary form, and its relationship to the Old Testament, and leads to very different conclusions about the central issue in John's Gospel, the person of Jesus and his relationship to God the Father and to those who believe in him.

The Word Made Flesh by Ian A. McFarland Pdf

Most theologians believe that in the human life of Jesus of Nazareth, we encounter God. Yet how the divine and human come together in the life of Jesus still remains a question needing exploring. The Council of Chalcedon sought to answer the question by speaking of one and the same Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, the same perfect in divinity and also perfect in humanity, the same truly God and truly a human being. But ever since Chalcedon, the theological conversation on Christology has implicitly put Christs divinity and humanity in competition. While ancient (and not-so-ancient) Christologies from above focus on Christs divinity at the expense of his humanity, modern Christologies from below subsume his divinity into his humanity. What is needed, says Ian A. McFarland, is a Chalcedonianism without reserve, which not only affirms the humanity and divinity of Christ but also treats them as equal in theological significance. To do so, he draws on the ancient christological language that points to Christs nature, on the one hand, and his hypostasis, or personhood, on the other. And with this, McFarland begins one of the most creative and groundbreaking theological explorations into the mystery of the incarnation undertaken in recent memory.

Flesh Becomes Word by David Dawson Pdf

Since its coinage in a sixteenth-century translation of Leviticus, the term "scapegoat" has become widely used. A groundbreaking search for the origins of this expression, Flesh Becomes Word traces the scapegoat to its origins in Mesopotamian ritual across centuries of typological interpretation and religious reflection, to its first informal uses in the pornographic and plague literature of the 1600s, and finally into the modern era.

And the Word Became Flesh by Maria Pdf

In this book you will discover that God's word became flesh. Jesus was hidden from view when he created the world. He was the word that was with God until He became human and the word was God. I'm an aspiring Revival Evangelist of the Gospel and my passion is the Bible. The greatest gift that I appreciate most is the gift of Jesus Christ the Son of God. If it wasn't for Jesus I wouldn't be the person I am now. Jesus is my best friend. God through His Word, Jesus, made many promises to us. With out Jesus there is no future hope. Jesus makes life worth living and because of him I can enjoy a life of great expectations and promises. Once you discover that Jesus is the Word of God you'll have a great appreciation and love for the Bible. Our future depends on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. With out the Word of God we have no hope. God has given us the precious gift of faith to believe and hope in His promises. We are believers and believers believe everything that God tells us in His word. Believers do not hand pick what they want to believe. You either believe every word that proceeds out of God's mouth or you don't. By choosing to believe the Bible you will receive God's blessings of favor and grace now and your reward will be everlasting life.
