So splendid are its phrases that many have taken them to be the unmediated word of God. Since its texts were gathered together the book has been venerated and enshrined. Execrated and burned. But whether we are believers or not the Bible still remains our heritage. The lynchpin of modern civilization. It has provided the West with a sense of the sacred and our sense of historical destiny. Testament describes the making of the Bible. The creation of both the Old and New Testaments and charts the book's survival through the long centuries of its life. Testament is a unique book: no other single volume tells the story of the Bible's extraordinary journey from the most ancient East to the heart of the modern West. John Romer uses his considerable experience of the worlds of art history and archaeology to advantage as he unravels the story of the making and the use and misuse of the world's most beautiful and influential book. With a sure touch he sets the historical scene and brings to vivid life the Bible's creators. From the silty plains of Mesopotamia on whose floods many Noahs set sail. To the quiet Valley of the Nile where sombre temples were filled with a sense of the holy, Romer traces the seeds of Judaism and Christianity. He describes in lively detail how the Bible was written and by whose hands. The scope of Testament is enormous and fascinating. Stretching as it does from the ancient Israelites to the archaeologists who came in search of them. Its characters include the Rabbis who fought and died for their sacred books; Jesus of Nazareth. Whose preachings inspired St. Paul and whose life and death became the corner-stone of the Church; Constantine, who formalized the faith and made t

In its first 20 years, has been noted more for dissonance than harmony. As he told his listeners, Today as never before, in our era so marked by human progress, there is need for an appeal to the moral conscience of man. Yet the man who made this fervent appeal is not so naive as to believe that a single journey or one speech. However eloquent, can change the moral climate of our time. Paul spent 31 years in the Vatican Secretariat of State. ... moreAmong the oldest and most sophisticated chanceries in the world. Such a man is painfully aware of the realities of power and the limitations of international organizations, however well intentioned.

THE SPIRIT OF PROTESTANTISM :: 1961 HB w/ DJ
THE SPIRIT OF PROTESTANTISM: 1961 HB w/ DJ THE SPIRIT OF PROTESTANTISM Hardback Book with Dust Jacket Written by Robert McAfee Brown Over 260 pages Copyright © 1961 by Oxford University Press. Inc. In this book Professor Brown. One of the leading theologians in America, presents the spirit of Protestantism- its origins, history, and meaning- from the point of view of the"insider" who seeks to communicate with those in the"outside" of his faith. Using non-technical language, and writing in a smoothly paced style enlivened with quick flashes of humor, he investigates the meaning of Protestant worship, the relationship between Protestantism and Roman Catholicism, and finally, social and individual ethics. Although Protestantism does not have boundaries as easily recognizable as those of Roman Catholicism. It does ... morehave a large body of shared convictions, and the convergences between different groups are as significant as the divergences. Stressing that Protestantism has a heritage and the"the Reformation must continue, the author criticizes that heritage when necessary and makes no attempt to"sell" his faith by exaggerating its virtues and ignoring its faults, Protestants, whatever their denomination, will find the central features of their own group impressively set forth. In describing what it is like to be a Protestant. Professor Brown avoids the"arm's length" objective approach found in so many books. He offers instead a personal confession of faith by a believing Protestants who views the spirit Protestantism as a"constant renewal at the hand of God. His book will prove a valuable experience for the lay reader, the clergy, the undergraduate, and the seminary student. Not only Protestants but Roman Catholics as well will find this volume stimulating and useful reading. Contents include: PART ONE: APPROACHING PROTESTANTISM: SOME BASIC PRELIMINARIES 1. The Misunderstandings of Protestantism(what Protestantism is not) 2. The Catholicity of Protestantis

TESTAMENT :: THE BIBLE AND HISTORY :: 1988 HB w/ DJ
TESTAMENT: THE BIBLE AND HISTORY: 1988 HB w/ DJ TESTAMENT THE BIBLE AND HISTORY Hardback book with Dust Jacket by John Romer Over 365 pages First American Edition Copyright © 1988 by John Romer" The Bible has had more influence upon Western civilization than any other book. So splendid are its phrases that many have taken them to be the unmediated word of God. Since its texts were gathered together the book has been venerated and enshrined. Execrated and burned. But whether we are believers or not the Bible still remains our heritage. The lynchpin of modern civilization. It has provided the West with a sense of the sacred and our sense of historical destiny. Testament describes the making of the Bible. The creation of both the Old and New Testaments and charts the book's survival through the long ... morecenturies of its life. Testament is a unique book: no other single volume tells the story of the Bible's extraordinary journey from the most ancient East to the heart of the modern West. John Romer uses his considerable experience of the worlds of art history and archaeology to advantage as he unravels the story of the making and the use and misuse of the world's most beautiful and influential book. With a sure touch he sets the historical scene and brings to vivid life the Bible's creators. From the silty plains of Mesopotamia on whose floods many Noahs set sail. To the quiet Valley of the Nile where sombre temples were filled with a sense of the holy, Romer traces the seeds of Judaism and Christianity. He describes in lively detail how the Bible was written and by whose hands. The scope of Testament is enormous and fascinating. Stretching as it does from the ancient Israelites to the archaeologists who came in search of them. Its characters include the Rabbis who fought and died for their sacred books; Jesus of Nazareth. Whose preachings inspired St. Paul and whose life and death became the corner-stone of the Church; Constantine, who formalized the faith and made t
