Having been discarded into the oblivion of "heretics", the figure of Juan de Valdés only began to be recovered at the end of the 19th century. Initially associated with Protestantism, Valdés has been portrayed by a range of writers who have each tried to classify him in one of the religious categories of the time: erasmian, catholic, alumbrado or protestant. However, the very diversity of portraits only confirmed the need for a more eclectic point of view. In his book Manuel Martinez-Ortega examines particular religious trends, texts and tendencies of Valdes time and context in order to identify, through the analysis of his writings, the particular characteristics and emphases of his eclecticism. His writings include commentaries on the Bible, with translation from Greek into Spanish, as well as a sizable "spiritual manual" and something like theological sketches, all of which portray his convictions and message. The analysis of his writings and their background reveal that, within the movement of Spanish Protestantism, Juan de Valdes constitutes a clear example of religious currents that received and assimilated key principles of the Protestant Reformation.

Within the framework of a research project aimed at a systematic reconstruction of the ideology of Papacy in the years 14311549 (PRIN 2022 2022BXT33X) this volume takes the Renaissance Church as an institution promoting an ambivalent and complex project of religious reform, where the ideal of the affirmation of a new political power, coexists in dialectic tension with the attempt to absorb and channel the diverse claims for the spiritual renewal of the Church, based on Biblical and apocalyptic motifs. In particular, this volume explores 1) the influence of texts and motifs from early Christianity on the literature produced in the years 14311549 (e.g., the use of Patristic texts; the reception of Biblical motifs in the ideology of reform and in political theology); 2) the rise of the so-called "Catholic orientalism" in Renaissance Rome (biblical scholarship, interpretation of Hebrew texts, Christian Kabbalah), which influenced the conceptualization of different types of Christianity.This edited volume analyzes how Roman Catholic theologians in Rome used Bible exegesis, Patristic writings, and Hebrew studies to defend the Papacys authority against scholars like Lorenzo Valla, as well as the rising tide of the Reformation.

Ivan E. Mesa explores how English Particular Baptists held a unique view of the Jewish people within Gods unfolding redemption. As Dissenters themselves, Baptists empathized with the Jewish plight and connected their philo-Semitism to a larger theological vision that anticipated the Jews conversion and eventual return to the land of Israel. English Baptists viewed Jews as the people of God, "beloved for the fathers sake" (Rom. 11:28). They believed the nation of Israel would one day experience a transformative conversion, aligning with Gods covenantal promises. Through figures such as Henry Jessey, John Gill, Andrew Fuller, and Charles Spurgeon, the author demonstrates how these Baptists advocated for Jewish readmission to England, prayed for the Jews conversion, and engaged in charitable work. This Baptist perspective was distinct and influential, demonstrating a millenarian zeal that connected religious, political, and cultural realms within England, with implications stretching as far as the establishment of the modern state of Israel in 1948.Mesa offers a fresh perspective on Christian-Jewish relations, moving beyond the established narratives of anti-Semitism and toward a more comprehensive understanding of philo-Semitic eschatology.

The fundamentals of every faith are exposed in their conceptualization of death. Recent studies have caricatured Post-Reformation Calvinist theology of death as cold and fatalistic. Jason D. Edwards examines the Reformed English Puritan John Flavels (ca. 16271691) theology of death through close analysis of his writings on mortality, dying, and eternal destiny. The spine of his doctrine was covenant theology, or how he understood the terms and applications of divine covenants, though this aspect of his theology has been largely neglected. Inquiry into Flavels treatment of death demonstrates how the Puritan minister emphasized union to Christ as Mediator as the only grounds for a believers hope. Flavel applied his theology to the spiritual needs of those facing death and dying with warmth, clarity, and conviction to anchor all hope in death upon Christ.

Sara Mannen in her book rejects the notion that Karl Barths theology makes God in the image of the modern autonomous subject and argues that his concept of divine personhood is best understood when reframed through the intellectual context that resulted from the Pantheism Controversy, which explicitly revolved around issues of the knowledge and nature of God and divine personhood. The work of Mendelssohn, Jacobi, Fichte, Herder, and Schelling created an environment that necessitated theologians address the concepts of divine personhood, divine absoluteness, and modern questions of theological epistemology. Mannen argues that Barths distinctly modern conception of divine personhood reflects and responds to this environment by providing the necessary divine ontological foundation that establishes God is capable of self-revelation without detriment to Gods absoluteness and that Barths motivation for the occasional use of counterfactual language is to maintain Gods personal nature and identity.

Accessible Guide Explores Humanitys Exile and the Hope of AtonementGods people, once resting in his divine presence, now toil in exile.

Emphasizing the pain of separation from God, exile stories also highlight the hope of resurrection and creations imminent restoration back to the Edenic state.In this addition to the Short Studies in Biblical Theology series, Nicholas G. Piotrowski traces the theme of exile throughout Scripture, giving readers a renewed appreciation for redemptive history and atonement in Christ.

O que é ser humano?Esta é uma pergunta que exige resposta cuidadosa em nossos dias. Assim como a igreja, ao longo dos séculos, enfrentou crises teológicas acerca da divindade de Cristo e da justificaço pela fe, vivemos hoje uma crise antropologica sem precedentes. Em muitas comunidades crists, mesmo entre aqueles que conhecem as respostas corretas sobre quem e Jesus e como somos salvos, encontramos uma compreenso fragilizada sobre o que significa ser humano.Em O que e ser humano, o teologo britanico Iain W. Provan utiliza a metafora do cuco europeu um parasita que se infiltra em ninhos alheios e destroi a familia hospedeira para descrever como ideias no biblicas sobre a humanidade tem invadido sorrateiramente nossas comunidades. Essas ideias, quase imperceptiveis a primeira vista, crescem ate dominar completamente o ambiente cristo, desviando-nos de forma fatal do caminho da verdade.Dividido em quatro partes praticas e acessiveis, este livro oferece: Uma base solida para compreender a antropologia crist Ferramentas para identificar e rejeitar ideias no biblicas sobre a humanidade Orientaçes claras para viver segundo uma viso verdadeiramente crist do ser humano Estrategias para equipar a igreja contra os "cucos" antropologicos contemporaneos Escrito especialmente para cristos serios que desejam seguir fielmente a Jesus Cristo, este livro no apenas promove o discipulado, mas tambem ajuda a restaurar uma viso biblica e robusta da pessoa humana em todas as areas da vida da igreja.

It is time for a new Jubilee, in which to open wide once again the Holy Door to offer the living experience of Gods love, which kindles in the heart the certain hope of salvation in Christ. This conviction led Bishop Antonio Stagliano to write a Theological Letter to the Pope. The central point of the authors reflection is the affirmation of a "jubilee Christocentrism," which becomes the foundation of the announcement of hope for all humanity and justifies Christian optimism as the judgment and perspective of faith on historical events. This is the hope that neither deceives nor disappoints, because it has passed through the testimony of an incarnate love that pushes the gift of life to death.

Alguns temas aproximam os estudos desenvolvidos pela teologia crist e pela psicologia. Podem ser citados os estudos sobre o desenvolvimento do ser humano, sobre a maneira de lidar e elaborar o sentimento de culpa, alem de estudos que contemplam o acolhimento diante dos diversos dramas humanos. No que pese os distanciamentos entre as areas academicas da teologia e da psicologia, no passado, os textos publicados atualmente indicam o dialogo respeitoso entre os pesquisadores que atuam nas duas areas, inclusive, aqueles que buscam aproximar a teologia e a psicologia, mantidas as devidas fronteiras teorico-metodologicas. A presente coletanea de estudos indica exatamente o esforço de pesquisadores que empreendem analises contemplando as teologias e algumas escolas da psicologia no contexto social brasileiro. O tema principal que motivou os estudiosos das teologias e das psicologias foi o sofrimento humano, algo proximo das pessoas em todas as epocas e sociedades. Os sete capitulos que integram a coletanea publicada pelo Grupo de Pesquisa Teologia e Psicologia (certificado pela FABAPAR/CNPq desde 2016) visam uma forma de acolhimento, entendendo que as teologias e as psicologias podem se colocar ao lado das pessoas em suas jornadas de superaço diante do sofrimento.
