Basically, this book is about faith: faith as a historical reality, a living and free response to the action of God in an essentially secular context. In the revolution which is now taking place in theological thinking, the concept of a "secular Christianity" has become widely known. For the author it represents the possibility of a truly theological faith, seen and expressed in terms of the present day and based on knowledge and understanding of historical action in the past. Dr. Gregor Smith asks such questions as, How are we related to these past events? What is the nature of our understanding of them? What are the means by which we understand them, and what are the results or consequences of that understanding? It is only by means of our understanding and our decision about events of the past that history is carried forward in real responsibility and freedom. The secular humanism which the author describes here--what he calls Christian secularity--is still Christian, because it is a humanism which flows direct from the Christian message concerning Jesus as the one truly secular man. It is this true secularity which judges the old forms of human history, and ushers in the new form. This secularity is entirely historical, permeated with what the author calls the experience of historical transcendence, and entirely open to the possibilities of history. -Publisher

Read Bible verses and actually understand them for faithful Christians. This book, covering most of Acts and all of Romans, and removes the mystery of what a verse is actually saying. There are two sections covered in Book 1, that starts with the introduction of Saul of Tarsus, later known as Apostle Paul. Verses come alive as the verse is broken down into meaningful understanding for readers. Look at the first two verses of Acts Chapter 6 and see how it was made clearer:Acts 6:1-2And in those days [immediately following Jesus' death on the Cross], when the number of the disciples [of the Lord, Jews who believe Jesus is the Messiah] was multiplied [with new disciples of the Lord], there arose a murmuring [mumbling] of the Grecians [Jewish Greeks] against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration [attention/care of the poor]. 2. Then the twelve [Apostles of Jesus, overseers of the needs of the disciples of the Lord] called the multitude of the disciples [of the Lord] unto them, and said, `It is not reason[able] that we [twelve Apostles] should leave the word of God, and serve tables [for the poor].'For the first time, readers enjoy understanding the verses of the Bible. You can study the Christian lifestyle even if you're not a Church goer. Those who attend a Bible study course are helped in their understanding of the Word of God. Learn about:*the dispensation of the Gospel of the Grace of God, which replaced the dispensation of the Law of God when Jesus died on the Cross. *the invisible dimension of Heaven known as breadth.*Stephen with the face of an angel, the first murdered disciple of the Lord.*the difference between a faithful Christian and a disciple of the Lord.*Philip, one of the Seven*Apollos*Exorcism and Satanic Ways*Diana vs. God*Apostle Paul's missionary work*What happens when you're saved*How you, a sinner, can be declared sinless*The Father's Commandment*Faithful Christians vs. Secular Christians

Religion and Secularity traces the history of the conceptual binary of religion and secularity in Europe and the repercussions it had in other regions and cultures of the Eurasian continent during the age of imperialism and beyond. Twelve authors from a wide range of disciplines, deal in their contributions with the trajectory, the concepts of „religion“ and „secularity/secularization“ took, as well as with the corresponding re-configurations of the religious field in a variety of cultures in Europe, the Near and Middle East, South Asia and East Asia. Taken together, these in-depth studies provide a broad comparative perspective on a penomenon that has been crucial for the development of globalized modernity and its regional interpretations.

"Religion is much too great and permanent an element in human experience to be swept out of sight," writes Bishop Newbigin. "I want to ask what must be the religion of a Christian who accepts the process of secularization and lives fully in the kine of world into which God has led us." His answer involves relating the universal fact of secularization to the biblical picture of the nature and destiny of man. It involves, too, some criticism of recent Christian responses to secularization - but the whole tone of this book is positive. The emphasis is on knowing God, being God's people, and living of God in the midst of the secular.

"Not only do I believe that it is possible to maintain moral standards without the crutch of religion but I would argue that it is the only way to achieve true goodness." Disproving Christianity and Other Secular Writings compiles popular and lesser-known arguments against the principles established by the Christian canon. Using a phenomenological approach to build his case based on in-depth study at the University of California, Santa Barbara McAfee analyzes the Hebrew Scriptures and New Testament doctrine to build a logical and reasonable case against their validity. From contradictions between lived and portrayed religions to factual errors within the texts themselves, no stone is left unturned in this fully updated and expanded refutation of Christianity.

"Morality and religion: intimately wed, violently opposed, or something else? Discussion of this issue appears in pop culture, the academy, and the media - often generating radically opposed views. At one end of the spectrum are those who think that unless God exists, ethics is unfounded and the moral life is unmotivated. At the other end are those who think that religious belief is unnecessary for - and even a threat to - ethical knowledge and the moral life." "This volume provides an accessible, charitable discussion that represents a range of views along this spectrum. The book begins with a lively debate between Paul Kurtz and William Lane Craig on the question, Is goodness without God good enough? Kurtz defends the affirmative position and Craig the negative. Following the debate are new essays by prominent scholars. These essays comment on the debate and advance the broader discussion of religion and morality. The book closes with final responses from Kurtz and Craig."--BOOK JACKET.

A basic Christian claim is that God is active in human history to accomplish his purpose, which he will do in the end. This book considers some of the implications of this far-reaching claim. Christian faith is bound up with our personal history but beyond that stretches far into the past. Faith is not identical with historical knowledge, for example with knowledge of the facts about Jesus, facts which must be established historically. That involves using the historian's methods of investigation. What does 'God reveals himself in history' mean? Christians claim to find an ultimate meaning in history. But how can that be? How is it possible to find an overall meaning in history, theistic or otherwise? Since Christians appeal to the New Testament in making the claim that God revealed himself in Jesus, we must go beyond that book to the Christian community which existed before there was a New Testament and out of whose midst its writings came. To understand those books we must interpret. So where do our principles of interpretation come from, and how valid are they? This is the question of tradition. This small book is an introduction to these interesting topics. Hopefully it will help to clarify important issues and lead the reader to investigate such central matters further.
