Abstract

Der Autor legt eine Einleitung in die Systematische Theologie vor, die im Gegensatz zu allen gleichartigen Publikationen die wesentliche Verknüpfung der materialen Dogmatik und der Ethik auf der Grundlage der Prinzipienlehre aufzeigt. Sie will der Verselbständigung dieser Disziplinen in der evangelischen Theologie der Gegenwart entgegenwirken. Im Rahmen einer theoretischen Bestimmung der Funktion der Religion für das Gemeinwohl der Gesellschaft verankert sie die explikative Aufgabe der Systematischen Theologie in der kirchlichen Kommunikation des Evangeliums, in welcher dessen Wahrheit und dessen motivierende Kraft durch Gottes Geist für die Lebensgewissheit der Person offenbar wird. Aus der Besinnung auf den Grund und Gegenstand des Glaubens ergibt sich für die Glaubensgemeinschaft der Kirche das dogmatische Interesse, das Walten Gottes in Schöpfung, Versöhnung und Vollendung zu erkennen; und es ergibt sich aus ihr ebenso das ethische Interesse, die spezifische Verantwortung der christlichen Existenz für das Gemeinwohl in der Risikogesellschaft einer ökonomisch dominierten Kultur - also in Wirtschaft, Staat, Wissenschaft und Technik - zu reflektieren.

Abstract

What can practical theology contribute to other theological disciplines and the church about the nature of God and the church's witness to Jesus Christ in the world? What can we learn about the love and power of God in Jesus Christ from the community of survivors of violence? Rethinking Faith urges all Christians to consider themselves practical theologians by drawing on their own experiences in making theological assertions. Poling couples his understanding of the tradition with his work with survivors of violence to demonstrate the resilience of Christianity.

Abstract

The term religion is indispensable to the subject matter of both religious studies and theology. Many approaches attempt a reductive, essentialist, functionalist, or other type of unifying definition, but these approaches tend to rest on various, often controversial sets of presuppositions. Indeed, it seems impossible to overcome the vast plurality of understandings of religion as the academic fields that deal with religion splinter and proliferate, thereby inhibiting the rational treatment of a very important dimension of modern society. The present volume undertakes an intense interdisciplinary examination of a seminal modern text that religious scholars agree helped spawn religious studies and modern theology as we know it, namely Schleiermacher's Reden über die Religion, which lays out the most important and controversial themes under discussion by theologians and religious studies scholars: first, the significance of emotion for the understanding of religion; second, the role of imagination and religious utterances in religious belief; third, the importance of religion for the social world; and fourth, the political implications of religion.

Abstract

Ever since it was first written, Adriaan Koerbagh's anti-Christian work, A Light Shining in Dark Places , has been nearly inaccessible. Had it been known during the Enlightenment, it would have been a great inspiration to radical thinkers. However, it was suppressed and the author died in jail. The full text is now available in English. Koerbagh demolishes such Christian notions as the Creator, the Trinity, the divinity of Jesus, heaven and hell, angels, devils and miracles. Instead, he presents a monistic world view in which Nature and God are identical. Theology is a part of natural science. God can only be worshipped by acting rationally. Koerbagh's rational religion is intended to contribute to a free, peaceful and liberal society.

Abstract

Interreligious dialogue is one of the major challenges confronting contemporary theology. In particular, the so-called “dialogical tension” between openness and identity has been a central issue: Can one maintain one’s religious identity without closing oneself off from the other? In general, Christian reflection on interreligious dialogue begins with a theological reflection on religious plurality that assumes that one cannot engage seriously in interreligious dialogue without a sound theology of religions. In this book Marianne Moyaert critically assesses the various models for a Christian theology of religions (exclusivism, inclusivism, pluralism, particularism) by asking how these models relate to the dialogical tension between openness and identity. She argues that we need to overcome the classical theological approach of religious plurality and move in the direction of a theological hermeneutics of interreligious hospitality. To that end she turns to the French philosopher Paul Ricoeur, whose philosophical and hermeneutical insights can give a new turn to the discussion of the criteria, possibilities, and particularly the limits of interreligious dialogue.

Abstract

In light of the widespread public perception of incompatibility between Islam and Christianity, this book provides a much-needed straightforward comparison of these two great faith traditions from a broad theological perspective. Award-winning scholar John Renard illuminates the similarities as well as the differences between Islam and Christianity through a clear exploration of four major dimensions-historical, creedal, institutional, and ethical and spiritual. Throughout, the book features comparisons between concrete elements such as creedal statements, prayer texts, and writings from major theologians and mystics. It also includes a glossary of technical theological terms. For western readers in particular, this balanced, authoritative work overturns some common stereotypes about Islam, especially those that have emerged in the decade since September 11, 2001.
