The standard account of early Christianity tells us that the first centuries after Jesus' death witnessed an efflorescence of Christian sects, each with its own gospel. We are taught that these alternative scriptures, which represented intoxicating, daring, and often bizarre ideas, were suppressed in the fourth and fifth centuries, when the Church canonized the gospels we know today: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The rest were lost, destroyed, or hidden.In The Many Faces of Christ , the renowned religious historian Philip Jenkins thoroughly refutes our most basic assumptions about the Lost Gospels. He reveals that dozens of alternative gospels not only survived the canonization process but in many cases remained influential texts within the official Church. Whole new gospels continued to be written and accepted. For a thousand years, these strange stories about the life and death of Jesus were freely admitted onto church premises, approved for liturgical reading, read by ordinary laypeople for instruction and pleasure, and cited as authoritative by scholars and theologians.The Lost Gospels spread far and wide, crossing geographic and religious borders. The ancient Gospel of Nicodemus penetrated into Southern and Central Asia, while both Muslims and Jews wrote and propagated gospels of their own. In Europe, meanwhile, it was not until the Reformation and Counter-Reformation that the Lost Gospels were effectively driven from churches. But still, many survived, and some continue to shape Christian practice and belief in our own day.Offering a revelatory new perspective on the formation of the biblical canon, the nature of the early Church, and the evolution of Christianity, The Many Faces of Christ restores these Lost Gospels to their central place in Christian history.

Die Studie erschliesst einen neuen Zugang zur "Liebe". Der Autor untersucht Liebe nicht lediglich als sinnlichen Affekt, sondern als Grundausrichtung auf das Gute. Seine rein philosophische Argumentation geht den Gegebenheiten der Erfahrung auf den Grund. Das Buch beginnt mit der Darstellung von Liebe als "Prinzip des Seins". Das in Evolution befindliche Sein des Kosmos weist auf das Goettliche als "sich verstroemende Liebe" hin. Liebe erscheint als Aufbauprinzip einer Seinsordnung, die zum Beispiel Ehe und Familie begrundet. Es folgt eine Betrachtung der Liebe als Prinzip des sinnlichen und des geistigen Erkennens. Die Betrachtung kulminiert in einem abschliessenden Teil mit einer Reflexion der Liebe als "Prinzip des Handelns" gegenuber dem Sein, der eigenen Person, den Mitmenschen und der Natur.

The series of papers in this volume were given as talks in Sydney during a year of extra-ordinary surprises after Pope Benedict XVI resigned and Pope Francis was elected as Bishop of Rome (as he likes to call himself). Even if it's only catching up with many things that have become commonplace assumptions in the contemporary world, it would seem that the Catholic Church is at a turning point as has been evidenced in all that Pope Francis has done since becoming Bishop of Rome. The subject of the first paper by Michael Kelly is not so much the scandals that have rocked the Catholic Church of late, but where does the Church, as a community and a public entity, need to go from here on these issues. That discussion-as intimate as it is related to some very public features of the Church-has a context: the history of a Church badly in need of structural reform. If the sentiments of the faithful and the desire to make the community of the Church more in deed what it claims in words, the reach of those changes is as profound as it is extensive. Effective reform of an historical community like the Roman Catholic Church will not happen without a deep grasp of the history of forms in need of reformation. That is the focus of Chris Geraghty's contribution to this collection. Probing the spirit and reforming the body are for a purpose: mission. That mission is conditioned by the challenges of the context in which it is exercised. That is the focus of Frank Brennan's contribution as he assesses the challenges and proposes some fresh approaches to meeting them. Because there have been so many formulaic and essentially unengaged responses to contemporary issues in and beyond the Church, the transformation needed in attitude and practical proposals to handle them is vast.

Die Beitrage untersuchen disziplinubergreifend das Phanomen Migration. Die AutorInnen betrachten Migration als ein konstitutives Element der Menschheitsgeschichte und als globales Zukunftsthema. Spatestens seit Beginn der Fluchtlingswelle aus Syrien nach Europa und auch OEsterreich in den Sommermonaten 2015 ist diese Thematik integraler Bestandteil medialer, politischer und oeffentlicher Kontroversen. Migration ist kein modernes Phanomen. Wanderungsprozesse aufgrund existenzieller Bedrohungen oder Hoffnung auf bessere Lebensbedingungen anderswo hat es immer gegeben. Die BeitragerInnen diskutieren Migration aus den Perspektiven der Theologie, Philosophie und der Kunstwissenschaft. Die Bandbreite der Sujets reicht hierbei von alttestamentarischen Bibelstellen bis hin zum Europa der Neuzeit, uber Kolonialismus, Imperialismus und Globalisierung. Aus kunstwissenschaftlicher Perspektive wird der Migrationsbegriff hinsichtlich unterschiedlicher Epochen und Kunstgattungen aufbereitet.

Neben den Bischoefen waren es vor allem die Domkapitel, auf denen uber Jahrhunderte das System der Reichskirche wesentlich fusste. Fur den Zeitraum vom Abschluss des Wiener Konkordats 1448 bis zur Sakularisation 1803 unterzieht der Autor die verfassungsrechtlichen Grundzuge von insgesamt 74 mitteleuropaischen Domkapiteln einer vergleichenden Analyse. Vor dem Hintergrund der geschichtlichen Entwicklungen tritt bei der Untersuchung der inneren Organisation, der Kollation der Kanonikate und AEmter sowie der Idoneitatskriterien und Obliegenheiten ein vielschichtiges Bild zutage. So kann der Autor neben einer bemerkenswerten rechtlichen Vielfalt auch gemeinsame Rechtstraditionen aufzeigen.

1990 was ’n waterskeidingsjaar in Suid-Afrika se geskiedenis. Sedertdien het die Suid-Afrikaanse samelewing, en ook die NG Kerk, baie verander. Neels Jackson bied sy indrukke van die belangrikste tendense wat van 1990 tot 2020 in die NG Kerk plaasgevind het. Die wortel van die kerk word teruggevoer na Jesus toe, en die NG Kerk vandag kan ’n uitdagende toekoms op die spoor van Jesus Christus met vertroue tegemoet gaan.
