Christ and Modernity
Author: David J. Hawkin
language: en
Publisher: Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press
Release Date: 2010-10-30
In this re–examination of the roots of the relationship between religion and science, David Hawkin focuses on the concept of autonomy as he explores the question: Is there continuity and compatibility between the autonomy that underlies Christian faith and the role of individual freedom in the technological age? What makes this work particularly valuable is Professor Hawkin’s review of the theological, philosophical, political, psychological, and sociological works that have formed our ideas of the nature of both Christianity and modernity — Reimarus, Strauss, Schweitzer, and Bultmann on the quest for the historical Jesus; Bauer and Turner on Christian faith and practice; Machiavelli, Nietzsche, Darwin, Freud, and Marx on our historicity; Gogarten, Cox, and Bonhoeffer who affirm our autonomy in the technological process; Ellul and George who deny it.
Faith and Modernity
The context for Christian mission is the world of modern technology and modern thought. Yet how well do we really understand modernity? This book sets out the ideas discussed at a conference of the Lausanne Committee on World Evangelisation, held in Uppsala, Sweden in 1993.
Jesus Christ in Modern Thought
Author: John Macquarrie
language: en
Publisher: Hymns Ancient and Modern Ltd
Release Date: 2010-06
Here, following the example of Rahner and Pannenberg, John Macquarrie examines Jesus Christ's humanity to his origin as God. Part one considers the New Testament sources, including the "classical theology" period. Part two examines the Enlightenment and post-Enlightenment critique of classical christology (i.e. studying Jesus Christ as him from above, as opposed to his humanity), while in part three, Macquarrie makes his own christological statement on who Jesus Christ really is for us today.
