The Blogging Parson: January 2013

http://mpjensen.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html

Theology Ethics Literature Politics. Thursday, January 31, 2013. Bequests for short-term chantries of this sort, usually for periods from one to seven years, formed an important element in the religious economy of many communities… [1]. That not much had changed by 1547 was indicated by Henry VIII’s own will. In his last will and testament made on 30. December, 1546 asked that ‘an altar shall be furnished for the saying of daily masses while the world shall endure’. London: Macmillan, 1896), p. 328-9.

But Now: March 2010

http://butnowblog.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

Wednesday, 24 March 2010. There is a bit of debate about how to translate. In modern commentaries, the translation ‘citizenship’ is usually rejected because of its weak attestation in ancient texts. The problem I see with translating. As ‘civic association’ is that, in English, it is quite an un-intuitive phrase. Any perceived ‘governance’ by a ‘civic association’ would be, at most, minimal. Which govern the community at a deeper way than governments can. So, even a resident. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

But Now: April 2009

http://butnowblog.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html

Sunday, 26 April 2009. A friend of mine at College did some serious thinking about the place of virtual church - 'attending' church on-line. It seemed a somewhat ethereal issue at the time, but not any more. Churches have sprung up in Second Life, and the increase in podcasts of sermons is unending (one wonders if this is the new measure of success as a preaching - not church size, but number of downloads). Obviously Lloyd-Jones didn't stream his sermons, and in Preaching and Preachers. Is to show the pr...

But Now: May 2009

http://butnowblog.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Friday, 1 May 2009. Justice Potter Stewart famously said of pornography: 'I can't define it, but I know it when I see it.' Often we can feel the same about preaching. It's difficult to define what makes preaching, or certainly what makes 'good' preaching, but we know it when we see or hear it. Or as Lloyd-Jones says:. Preaching is [.] difficult to define. [.] Preaching is something that one recognises when one hears it. So the best we can do is say certain things about it. And those certain things are:.

But Now: New Book on Paul

http://butnowblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/new-book-on-paul.html

Friday, 11 September 2009. New Book on Paul. Douglas Campbell's new book on Paul. The Deliverance of God: An Apocalyptic Rereading of Justification in Paul. Has recently been released. I had a quick look at a friend's copy yesterday. A couple of the blurbs on the back describe the book as 'massive'. It certainly is - 1376 pages! If it is anything like his earlier. Quest for Paul's Gospel. I think there are going to be some 'massive' problems with this book - and not just its length! Origin of the Specious.

Sunday, October 25, 2009. Augustine on The Renewal of Our Minds. I'm always encouraged to hear truly masterful theologians stress the importance of the renewal and sanctification of our minds.  (For another look at the sanctification of human reason, see the opening chapter of John Webster's Holiness.

The Blogging Parson: March 2014

http://mpjensen.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Theology Ethics Literature Politics. Friday, March 21, 2014. Freedom of the will. How can they be held responsible for their intentions and their actions if they are not made freely? We are not merely ‘free to choose’, but obliged to be free, to understand and enact our lives in terms of choice under conditions that systematically limit the capacities of so many to shape their own destiny. The second problem is theological and moral, and is most vehemently expressed by Martin Luther in his debate with Er...

Theology Ethics Literature Politics. Saturday, March 30, 2013. Safe in the arms of Jesus. Ma'afu Kefu lay hard up against the headstone of Muriel Firmage, 1837-41 - safe in the arms of Jesus. The warm and slightly stale air of the Sydney morning coughed gently over the unmown spider grass. The blowflies circled each other with no obvious intent. A magpie hopped onto the garbage bin at the side of the church and jabbed half-heartedly at the black plastic bag overflowing the rim. Links to this post. Most f...
