McRae, William J.

In this book, John Goldingay examines five approaches to the interpretation of the Old Testament: as a faith, a way of life, the story of salvation, witness to Christ, and Scripture. Dr. Goldingay has a detailed knowledge of an enormous range of scholarly literature. His carefully considered evaluations of the works of other scholars are a helpful guide to the key issues which often tend to be submerged by the intricacies of scholarly debate. This edition is enlarged and updated by a Postscript, which takes note of ongoing discussions in the field of Old Testament studies since the 1980s. It sketches three major new developments in Old Testament interpretation: sociological analysis, literary study (especially of the narrative form) and canonical criticism. Of the first edition of Professor John Barton (Oxford University) said in the Journal of Theological Studies "On any terms it is a major contribution to understanding the shifting currents of the twentieth-century debate about the status, function, and interpretation of the Old Testament in the church.?

Approaches to Old Testament Interpretation

GOLDINGAY, JOHN

It is easy to think of Christian ministry as an exercise of our gifts or even finding fulfillment for ourselves. In God's Prophet, God's Servant, John Goldingay examines the portrait of a prophet's ministry found in Jeremiah and the portrait of a servant's ministry in Isaiah 40-55, showing us that in both cases, God calls us to a deeper and more demanding view of ministry. ?

What does it mean to be human? In Christ Can Make You Fully Human Kenneth C. Kinghorn rejects both the over-optimistic view of human potential that runs rampant in secular humanism, and the over-pessimistic view held by some Christians. With biblical insight he clearly shows how we may discover in Jesus an image of humanity that promises to fulfill the longings and hungers native to every human spirit. Jesus Christ is not merely our example, but he becomes our very life: "When Christ's Spirit comes to dwell within us, we become genuinely human for the first time in our lives . Both the self-exalting demands for human autonomy espoused by secularism and the various mystical attempts to erase the self result not in freedom, but in bondage. True liberty results when the human spirit comes into union with the Holy Spirit." Kenneth C. Kinghorn (Ph.D., Emory University) is professor of church history and historical theology at Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. An inspiring speaker on the Holy Spirit and the Christian life, Dr. Kinghorn is in constant demand as a conference speaker and on college and university campuses. He is the author of numerous books including Fresh Wind of the Spirit, Gifts of the Spirit, Discovering Your Spiritual Gifts, The Gospel of Grace, and The Heritage of American Methodism. He is also editor of John Wesley's Standard Sermons in Modern English (3 volumes).

Kinghorn, Kenneth Cain

"In the course of his teaching, Jesus compared the Holy Spirit's working to the wind: 'You hear the sound of it, but you do not know whence it comes or whither it goes' (John 3:8). Although the source of the wind lies beyond human understanding, its effects can clearly be seen all around us." Using heartwarming, firsthand illustrations, Kenneth C. Kinghorn unfolds a clear explanation of the Spirit-filled life. Through the Holy Spirit there is unending joy and comfort meant for every individual who is earnest and receptive to a spiritual revival. The author points out that life today brings many demands upon us. Each of us admits that we need "something beyond ourselves. We want solutions that reach down to the root issues of life and offer meaning to us in the inner sanctuary of our souls." Fresh Wind of the Spirit provides an answer for those seeking a renewed zest to live in our hectic and often impersonal world.

Technology has advanced more in recent decades than in any other era in human history. As Christians, how should we approach science and technology? In Faith and Hope in Technology, Egbert Schuurman offers a responsible and biblical approach to working in the areas science and technology, shedding light on the nature, benefits and problems of Western technology from within his profound commitment to a biblical understanding of human life under God. "Dr. Schuurman's Faith and Hope in Technology . will be of significant help to those Christians who are struggling with issues raised by biotechnology, cybernetics, and the increasing technological character of contemporary life." -Charles C. Adams, Dordt College "Schuurman offers a much needed prophetic critique of the autonomous development of modern technology. Carefully documenting the pervasive character of the scientific technical quest for utility and control, he arrives at the inescapable conclusion that modern technology does not deliver the promised freedom of redemption, but instead enslaves us and degrades the society in which we live. Drawing on the best insights of the Reformational tradition, this fine exposition offers a viable alternative." -Hans Boersma, Trinity Western University EGBERT SCHUURMAN is Professor in Reformational Philosophy at the Technological Universities of Delft and Eindhoven and at the Agricultural University of Wageningen, Netherlands. He is also a member of the Senate of the Dutch Parliament. His other books include Technology and the Future: A Philosophical Challenge (1980); Christians in Babel (1987); The Future: Our Choice or Gods Gift? (1990).
