Search Results - Theology

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

The term "theology" literally means the study of God, deriving from the Greek word theos, meaning 'God', and the suffix -ology from the Greek word logos meaning (in this context) "discourse", "theory", or "reasoning". Augustine of Hippo defined the Latin equivalent, theologia, as "reasoning or discussion concerning the Deity",[1] Richard Hooker defined "theology" in English as "the science of things divine".[2] More generally, it is the study of religious faith, practice, and experience, or of spirituality.

In academic theological circles there is some debate as to whether theology is an activity peculiar to the Christian religion, such that the word "theology" should be reserved for Christian theology, and other words used to name analogous discourses within other religious traditions.[25] It is seen by some to be a term only appropriate to the study of religions that worship a deity (a theos), and to presuppose belief in the ability to speak and reason about this deity (in logia)—and so to be less appropriate in religious contexts that are organized differently (religions without a deity, or that deny that such subjects can be studied logically). ("Hierology" has been proposed as an alternative, more generic term.[26])

The history of the study of theology in institutions of higher education is as old as the history of such institutions themselves. For example, Taxila was an early centre of Vedic learning, possible from the 6th century BC or earlier;[31] the Platonic Academy founded in Athens in the 4th century BC seems to have included theological themes in its subject matter;[32] the Chinese Taixue delivered Confucian teaching from the 2nd century BC;[33] the School of Nisibis was a centre of Christian learning from the 4th century AD;[34] Nalanda in India was a site of Buddhist higher learning from at least the 5th or 6th century AD;[35] and the Moroccan University of Al-Karaouine was a centre of Islamic learning from the 10th century,[36] as was Al-Azhar University in Cairo.[37]

Modern Western universities evolved from the monastic institutions and (especially) cathedral schools of Western Europe during the High Middle Ages (see, for instance, the University of Bologna, Paris University and Oxford University).[38] From the beginning, Christian theological learning was therefore a central component in these institutions, as was the study of Church or Canon law) universities played an important role in training people for ecclesiastical offices, in helping the church pursue the clarification and defence of its teaching, and in supporting the legal rights of the church over against secular rulers.[39] At such universities, theological study was initially closely tied to the life of faith and of the church it fed, and was fed by, practices of preaching, prayer and celebration of the Mass.[40]

November 04, 2009

There are multitudes of reasons why a young person today would want to take a break in their education after completing high school.

July 27, 2009

Christian Fiction is a burgeoning literary field which has developed considerably over the last dozen years. Originally thought of as the "escapist" and "not so serious" little cousin of more serious works on Biblical Theology, Fiction has developed to be so much more than just entertainment. Leading experts have long recognized that folk learn through many methods. Reading facts, historic accounts, and most importantly listening to stories. Storytelling is an ancient art that has been with humanity since the time of Adam and Eve. Before writing there were stories, passed from generation ... (read more)

11. Spiritual Discernment - Miracles or Deceptions?
July 21, 2009

Many people are fascinated with the supernatural, and drawn to miracles to provide a quick solution to problems or crises. Inspirational and influential religious leaders abound with claims of healing and deliverance, and multitudes follow without understanding the dangers. Claims of miracles and other supernatural phenomena are growing widely in many different religions and cultures. Also, we have entered an age where people seldom acknowledge any objective standard of truth, and the vast majority believes absolute truth does not exist at all. Most of us are aware of cults and individuals wh... (read more)

12. What the Bible says about Dating
July 07, 2009

A while back some friends and I were out at dinner and the conversation eventually turned to dating.  All kinds of topics were being discussed (passionately!) and the conversation seemed to fall along gender lines with the common denominator being that all involved had been hurt in relationships in the past.   At some point, a man at a table behind me heard one of my friends say that he didn't date because he felt it was pointless. When he heard this, this guy came over to our table and began to lecture on how "unbiblical" dating was and that he had been married for 14... (read more)

July 06, 2009

Twenty years ago, no one would've imagined that the cartoon on FOX about the yellow-skinned dysfunctional family would be on the air for two decades to come.  Even more unimaginable would've been the notion that this show, boycotted and bemoaned by many Christians on the Religious Right would end up being one of the most religiously-informed shows in TV history.  Yet that is precisely what The Simpsons has turned out to be over the past 20 years.  Religion Journalist Mark Pinsky's book "The Gospel According to the Simpsons" served to introduce the Evangelical Christian subculture to the sp...

14. Worldwide Church of God offshoots aren't missionaries
May 11, 2009

Re: Christian radical theology? The offshoots of the Worldwide Church of God have NEVER engaged in any missionary work or proselytizing, which is why we always had such excellent relationships with the Israeli government from Golda Meir on (who all received gifts of Steuben crystal when Mr. Armstrong met with them and stories about such meetings were always published in The Plain Truth magazine and on the World Tomorrow broadcast). The ironic thing is I have not been an official member of any of the offshoots of the Worldwide Church of God for years, and the last group I was involved... (read more)

15. Review-The Truth War
April 28, 2009

The Truth War, John MacArthur, 2007, ISBN 0785262636 A person either accepts the revealed truth of Scripture through Jesus Christ, or they don’t; there’s no middle ground. An increasing number of "good" Christians are unknowingly choosing the latter option. False teachers in the Church are nothing new; they have shown up all throughout history. Jesus even predicted their appearance in the Bible. Unfortunately, such people are not easy to spot, then or now. They don’t wear signs around their necks saying "I am an evil person. Don’t listen to me." The modern-day Emerging Church movemen... (read more)

16. How to Astral Projection
April 03, 2009

Although ca 10% of all people state that they had an Out Of Body Experience (OBE) at some time in their lives, many who are interested in this topic are struggling how to experience astral projection themselves. Near Death Experiences (NDE) and Out Of Body Experiences (OBE) have fascinated mankind for millennia. Their existence has raised fundamental questions about the relationship between human consciousness and the body, and has been much discussed in theology, philosophy and psychology (Source:ScienceDaily.com).

17. Days of Prophetic Fulfillment and the Theology of Distinctions
January 03, 2009

In America anyone who knows the biblical subject of eschatology (the last things) has been warning that all the signs of the last days are culminating in this generation. Whose listening and what does it mean besides a lot of trouble? As America starts off in a new walk down secular liberalisms all new and shiny path many people who knew that this nation alone once stood out as the most uniquely different nation in history are concerned, afraid, and in some cases even panicky. Morality started a high speed nose dive with Hollywood’s help about forty years ago and today there doesn’t... (read more)

18. Historical/Legal Apologetics
November 10, 2008

One difference between the Christian faith and many other world religions is the historical nature of Bible. Though all the other religious books offer many stories, these do not claim to be histories. Even in those places where other religions claim to be presenting actual histories, the philosophy and theology of those religions do not depend upon the historical narrative. Thus even if those historical narratives are false, or even if they are eliminated, it makes no difference to the philosophical and theological claims of those religions. This is particularly true of all Oriental re... (read more)

19. Introduction To Christian Apologetics
November 10, 2008

The word "apologetics" confuses many into thinking that it refers to some kind of apologizing. Actually this word is not derived from the English world "apology", but from the Greek word "apologia", which is a word referring to "making a defense". Apologetics is a general term, signifying a formal defense of any kind. On the other hand, Christian Apologetics is that branch of Christian theology that answers the question "is Christianity believable". Integrated Apologetics stands for the special approach developed by us in our course material where we integrate the best from all schools of thou... (read more)

November 05, 2008

What nation in its right mind, after 9/11, after Osama (at least his collaboration with the powers that be on it), after our alleged war on terrorism, would elect a questionable and dark character who is pro-Muslim, raised during his influential years in Muslim countries, has attended a hateful Afro-racist congregation that preaches anti-American and anti-white sermons typical of Black Liberation Theology, is endorsed by avowed Black racists and rabid Nazi Muslims, etc. would let Barack Hussein Obama even entertain the notion of running for president for a second?

22. How Right is Your Conservative Commentator
August 09, 2008

Those who host conservative radio shows are less likely to be pressured by PC watchdogs but all of them occasionally take leave of reality especially when it comes to theology. Let’s see! From the stinging replies of Americas “culture warrior,” Bill O’Reilly, to the sardonic humor of Glenn Beck and all in between there is a lot to be desired. It may be naiveté as in President Bush’s remark about Islam being a “peaceful religion” or it may just be that after all they are only political commentators and not avowed conservative theologians. In either case, some who are only slightly ab... (read more)

23. Do Not Complicate Your Life
July 30, 2008

“Excuse me, where is the Trinity?” I was walking in the lobby of St. Luke’s hospital in Quezon City when this man came up and hit me with this very deep question. He looked very confused. My guess was that he recognized me from my TV show or my books and decided to ask me a spiritual question. So I gave him my best shot. I dug deep into my theology and said, “The Trinity is all around us. The Trinity is within you. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are one…” His face looked even more puzzled, so I tried even harder. “I know this is difficult to understand, but there are three pe... (read more)

24. Bible Study on the Theology of Adoration
July 16, 2008

I want to discuss what I believe to the most important and freeing concept for Christians to understand.  I call it the Theology of Adoration.  It is a theology rooted in too many Scriptures to point to just one--meaning once you understand it, Scripture will bear it out over and over again--but it can be summed up most simply in this way:   Soren Kierkegaard wrote, “Purity of heart is to will one thing.”     If we are only allowed one expression of our lives, it must be the adoration of God.  To see God in His fullest glory would leave us in paralyzed awe!  We would helpless to do anythin...

25. Get Classical Christian Education For Your Children
July 14, 2008

Most school systems in the early colonial days of America were schools founded on Classical Christian education. Most instructors were educated ministers with a background in literature, Protestant theology, and classical languages. As a result, students studied the bible in its original Greek and Hebrew along with other classics in Greek. Classical Christian education often produces students that are amazing leaders and thinkers. A rigorous and challenging education made this type of education a winning service. Sadly, the current educational system in the nation has dishonored... (read more)
