Pages : 84
Book Description
The subject of the return of Jesus has fueled speculation ever since He left. When is He coming? Will we know when He is about to return? Are the things happening in our world today "signs of the times"? What does the book of Revelation say about the return of Jesus? And what about the nation of Israel? What role do they play in end-times scenarios? Mike Reed attempts to address these and other questions about Christ's return in this book. For the average person and even for those who have studied the topic for awhile, the subject of Christ's return can be overwhelming. In this book, the author will attempt to guide the reader into an understanding of the return of Christ first based upon what Jesus said about it and then looking at what the apostles and prophets have said. The basis for the confusion on the subject is because most authors have not followed that sequence. This is a book written for laymen. It attempts to utilize good scholarship, but it is written for the nonacademic follower of Jesus who wants to understand what our Lord said about this most important topic. The book is also written with the desire to be a good example of how to utilize sound and time-honored methods of interpretation, which can be applied to any topic of scripture.

A Defense of the Catholic Religion
Author: Beda Mayr
Publisher: CUA Press
ISBN: 0813237734
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
The Benedictine Beda Mayr,OSB, (1742?1794) was one of the main figures of the German Catholic Enlightenment. He was not only the first Catholic to wrestle with the challenges of Reimarus and Lessing, but also the first to develop an ecumenical methodology for a reunion of the churches. The text, translated from the German original for the first time, presents a theologian who intentionally went to the margins of orthodoxy in order to allow for more interconfessional dialogue. Mayr argued that Catholic theology should follow minority opinions for unsettled dogmatic questions, which would allow for easier union agreements with Protestant churches. Moreover, he suggested limiting ecclesial infallibility to directly revealed truths, thereby reducing the authoritative truth claims of conciliar or papal decisions. Although the study of Catholic Enlightenment is booming among historians and theologians, too few texts are available in reliable translations. A major strength of this edition is not only that its introduction introduces the reader to the colorful landscape of eighteenth-century theological discussions, but also presents the entire text of Mayr's book (with the exception of its appendix) thereby allowing the reader to see the strengths and weaknesses of Enlightenment ecumenism. Mayr's Limited Infallibility was put on the Index of Forbidden Books, on which it remained until the 20th Century. It invites readers to a modern, non-scholastic way of theologizing for the sake of Christian unity.
