Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Is the Christian battle against sin a long defeat?In Conquerors, Not Captives, Joseph R. Dodson and Mattie Mae Motl challenge the popular view that Romans 7:14-25 describes the typical Christian battle against sin. The "wretched man" of Romans 7 seems unable to do what God's law demands and, for many Christians, his inner conflict and turmoil seem all too relatable. But are we impotent before sin and powerless to do good? When we reexamine Romans 7 in light of Paul's writings elsewhere and his interpreters throughout church history, we encounter better news.Conquerors, Not Captives is an accessible and thoughtful study that rebukes our gloomy expectations and invites us to take seriously the Bible's assurances that the Holy Spirit frees us from sin's power.

Paperback or Softback. Condition: New. Paul and the Giants of Philosophy: Reading the Apostle in Greco-Roman Context. Book.

Paperback. Condition: New. Biblical Foundations Award Finalist What forces shaped the intellectual world of the apostle Paul? How familiar was he with the great philosophers of his age, and to what extent was he influenced by them? When he quoted Greco-Roman sources, what was his aim?Pauline scholars wrestle with such questions in journal articles and technical monographs, but now Paul and the Giants of Philosophy brings the conversation into the college classroom and the church. Each essay addresses Paul's interaction with Greco-Roman philosophical thinking on a particular topic, such as faith, slavery, gift-giving, and the afterlife. And each chapter includes discussion questions and reading lists to help readers engage the material further. Dodson and Briones have gathered contributors with diverse views from various traditions who are united in the desire to make Paul's engagement with ancient philosophy accessible to many readers.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. If you discovered that pagan scholars influenced Pauls thinking, would this shake your faith? On the contrary! Author Dr. Joseph R. Dodson argues that the more you understand Paul, the more your faith will grow.Paul the Rabbi Philosopher: Stoic and Jewish Philosophy in the Apostles Thought is an exegetical and comparative study of Pauls letters in dialogue with first-century Jewish and philosophical texts. This work argues for understanding Paul in his diverse context, where he is both rabbi and philosopher in his presentation of the good news and instruction of obedience to Christ.In placing Paul amid his rabbinic and philosophical conversation partners, this study provides greater understanding of Pauls gospel and his utilization of first-century language, rhetoric, and tropes to communicate the uniqueness of Jesus Christ as cosmological Victor, the glory of his cross, and our faithful response to the gift of righteousness. Section one places Paul alongside his Jewish contemporaries in their employment of personification and scripture citation to convey the cosmological victory of the Lord. Next, Paul is set in comparison to Stoic philosophers, chiefly Seneca, in their understanding of human depravity, suffering and glory, and apocalyptic eschatology.Reading Paul with the lenses of his contemporaries is a necessary, invaluable framework for conceptualizing how Paul aligns with, contradicts, and surpasses the first-century presentation of elements such as good news, powers, grace, human depravity, and obedience. As these comparative studies allow readers to understand Paul more clearly, they also allow readers to understand the Jewish and philosophical texts more clearlyevidencing the value of comparative dialogue in Pauline and biblical studies.Excellent for undergraduate, seminary and graduate students as well as pastors, teachers, and laypersons interested in comparative dialogue of the New Testament letters.
