The influence of some ancient philosophical and religious traditions on the soteriology of early ChristianityGibson, Jan Albert 31 August 2002 (has links)
When reading the Bible in an independent way, i.e., not through the
lenses of any official Church dogma, one is amazed by the many
voices that come through to us. Add to this variety the literaiy finds
from Nag Hammadi, as well as the Dead Sea Scrolls, then the
question now confronting many spiritual pilgrims is how it came
about that these obviously diverse theologies, represented in the socalled
Old and New Testaments, were moulded into only one
"orthodox" result. In what way and to what degree were the many
Christian groups different and distinctive from one another, as well as
from other Jewish groups? Furthermore, what was the influence of
other religions, Judaism, the Mysteries, Gnostics and Philosophers on
the development, variety of groups and ultimately 021 the
consolidation of "orthodox" soteriology? / Systematic Theology and Theological Ethics / M.Th. (Systematic Theology)

A rhetorical analysis of 1 Timothy 2:9-15 with a special focus on the role of women in the churchWilliams, Allan Alexander January 1992 (has links)
This thesis investigates the role of women in the early church as portrayed in 1 Timothy 2:9-15 using the recently-developed method of Rhetorical Analysis. It makes use of a rhetorical approach largely based on the method proposed by Kennedy, supplemented by insights from scholars who have emphasised the argumentative element in rhetoric. This method illustrates how the role of women in the church is decisively determined by the argument in the letter as a whole. A brief survey of classical rhetoric is given. The typical structure of a rhetorical discourse is listed with its component sections. The validity of using rhetorical analysis as a means for interpreting New Testament texts is justified. Textual units are identified from the structure of the text. Rhetorical insights are used to explain how the identified units cohere within the overall structure of the letter and how they relate to one another and interact. The thesis is developed that the section on women and teaching can only be meaningfully investigated in the light of the text as a whole and of the motifs in the letter. The thesis has a special focus on 2:9-15. This section is analysed in more detail than the rest of the text with the exception of 1 Timothy 1. As exordium, the latter provides the introduction to the situation dealt with in the letter, introduces the case, and sets the tone for the rest of the letter. The persuasive power of rhetoric in any situation depends to a large extent on its use of common tradition. The socio-cultural setting of the author is consequently analysed. Finally, the role of women in Graeco-Roman society is analysed in terms of motifs found in 1 Timothy 2:9-15.

The Church and the Segregation Crisis in the SouthSwim, Sammie E. 08 1900 (has links)
Segregation, as in other realms of American life, is a great problem of the churches. Although the Supreme Court decision and call for action by the President have produced few revolutionary changes, the churches of the South have taken steps to cope with this problem. Slow and faltering though these moves may be, they represent a new awakening on the part of individual churches to a pressing social responsibility.

A study of the origins, development and contemporary manifestations of Christian retreatsJenkins, Hugh Peter 31 October 2006 (has links)
The dissertation is a study of the origins, development and contemporary manifestations of Christian retreats. It traces origins from the Biblical record until current retreats. Christian retreat is a period of withdrawal from usual activities to experience encounter with God through Christian prayer. Jesus' pattern of engagement in ministry and withdrawal is a vital basis for retreat. Other Biblical descriptions of retreat are studied. There is an examination of retreat experiences in Church history with a particular focus on monasticism, as a major expression of retreat life, and Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the modern retreat movement. Varieties of subsequent retreat types in the spiritualities of different traditions from the Protestant Reformation onwards are considered. The spectrum of study includes Protestant, Catholic, Eastern Orthodox and Pentecostal spiritualities. The study culminates in focusing on current Ignatian and other retreats in their many forms. This includes private devotions to lengthy periods of retreat. / Christian Spirituality, Church History & Missiology / M.Th. (Christian Spirituality)
