Esta obra, de leitura ágil e cativante, examina a linguagem usada por Paulo para expressar os contornos do conceito de fé e delinear as sutis nuanças de crença, confiança e fidelidade presentes no vocabulo "fe".A linguagem da fe permeia as cartas de Paulo. No entanto, seu significado exato nem sempre e to claro. Ha muitos hoje que, ao reverberarem seculos de interpretaço, consideram a crença em Jesus um ato passivo. Nesta importante obra, Nijay Gupta desafia pressuposiçes compartilhadas por muitos na interpertaço que fazem de Paulo e convoca a um reexame de como o apostolo expressa a ideia de fe.Gupta sustenta que a linguagem paulina da fe reproduz uma compreenso judaica da aliança e envolve boa vontade, confiança e expectativa. A compreenso de Paulo acerca da fe implica a transformaço da percepço que se tem de Deus e do mundo por meio de Cristo, uma dependencia relacional para com Cristo e tambem uma lealdade ativa a Cristo.Pastores e estudiosos se beneficiaro com este exame minucioso do entendimento paulino acerca da linguagem da fe e tambem com o uso que ele faz do termo "fe". Para Gupta, a compreenso de Paulo implica um relacionamento divino-humano, centrado em Cristo, que cre, confia e obedece.

Though undertreated by modern scholars, Martin Luthers lectures on Deuteronomy are critical to understanding his theological development as an exegete and also the course of the Reformation in the wake of Luthers return from the Wartburg in 1522. In these lectures, Luther engages deeply with Moses, whom he sees as an author, prophet, and ruler. These three ways of regarding Moses allow Luther to forge a new approach to the Mosaic law, shaping his response to what he perceives as the evangelical legalism of Andreas Karlstadt and Thomas Muntzer. By shedding light on these exegetical principles and connecting these lectures to surrounding events, Miles Hopgood brings new clarity as to why Luther broke with Karlstadt and the nature of his dispute with Muntzer, demonstrates the importance of the Hebrew Bible in shaping Luthers mature exegesis, and opens the door for fresh perspectives not only on the events of 1521-1525 but Luthers entire career as interpreter of scripture.

Now available for the first time in English, Karl Ludwig Schmidts The Framework of the Story of Jesus (Der Rahmen der Geschichte Jesu) has been a foundation of New Testament studies. Through meticulous analysis, Schmidt demonstrates that the Synoptic Gospels are collections of individual stories that circulated orally and independently in the earliest Christian communities. Schmidt shows persuasively how, in their oral forms, most of these traditions existed apart from any sequence or specific temporal or geographic location, and that the chronology and locations now evident in the Gospels were applied by the evangelists while collecting and recording the oral traditions. Across much of the twentieth century and even into the present day, Schmidts thesis has undergirded Gospel interpretation. Yet as long as The Framework of the Story of Jesus remained untranslated, Schmidts ideas have been open to neglect and misinterpretation among Anglophone scholars. Discussion of the Synoptic Gospels and broader New Testament study will be enriched by engagement with the evidence and argument as originally presented.

An Examination of the Beatitudes and Jesuss Counterintuitive PromisesIn our sinful world, we often struggle with anxiety, loneliness, and heartache. Everywhere we look, we see broken families and divided communities. How can we truly cultivate Gods kingdom "on earth as it is in heaven" in such a broken place? In the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:212), Jesus urges us to set ourselves apart from the world, living in a counterculture with a new identity rooted in him. The Upside Down Kingdom examines this counterintuitive wisdom and explores its relevance for today. Drawing on insights from the biblical story of redemption, church fathers, Reformation scholars throughout history, and contemporary life, this book equips and encourages readers to get their spiritual bearings in an upside-down world. Author Chris Castaldo ultimately points readers to the kingdom of Christnot as a set of rules, but as a means of bringing peace and blessing here and now.Written for Laypersons and Teachers of the Word: Perfect for those interested in issues confronting the church Thorough Study of the Beatitudes: Each chapter explores a core teaching in Christs Sermon on the Mount Appeals to Pastors and Disciple Makers: A historically informed, biblically rich, and countercultural vision of Christian life Download Study Guide
