Abstract:
AbstractHobbes regarded traditional Christianity as one of the leading threats to the preservation of civil peace. This article argues that he responded to this threat by developing an innovative reinterpretation of Christianity designed to tame it from within. This reinterpretation involved the reshaping of leading Christian doctrines around the same liberal principles that underlie his conception of political authority, the natural law principles of equality of right and inalienable rights. Although this political “liberalization” of Christianity may well have enhanced the prospects of civil

The purpose of the study is to identify common and specific features in the understanding of bioethical problems in the social doctrines of Orthodox Christianity. The article considers the official documents of the Patriarchate of Constantinople and the Russian Orthodox Church, which reveal the theological approach to the main problems of bioethics: attitude to reproductive technologies, abortion, contraception, euthanasia, transplantology, human cloning, homosexuality.

Abstract:
Pursuing unity within the diverse landscape of Christian doctrines, beliefs, and practices is a perpetual challenge that has marked the history of Christianity. This paper delves into the intricate dynamics of fostering unity amidst theological diversity, doctrinal traditions, and varied expressions of faith within the Christian community. By analyzing the theological underpinnings of unity in Christianity, including core doctrines like the divinity of Christ and the authority of Scripture, the paper underscores the foundational principles that bind believers together.

Abstract:
Prayer, a pillar of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, takes different forms within and between each tradition. At the same time, it reflects the foundational articles of faith in each tradition. This short article reviews the various elements that shape the basic forms of the practice and how they reflect the doctrines of each tradition. It calls for mutual understanding and questioning whilst showing why there is no escaping our doctrinal differences. As such, Muslims and Christians are not simply fighting for better answers to the same questions. Rather, they begin with different questions ab

This article deals with the possible existence of doctrines in modern Paganism. Generally, Pagan studies scholars widely consider modern Paganism a religion without doctrines. Furthermore, Margot Adler, one of the early researchers of modern Paganism, established a narrative that practice is more important than beliefs in modern Paganism. However, based on ethnographic research conducted among modern European Pagans between 2014 and 2017, along with additional secondary data, this article argues that doctrines may emerge in situations of pressure or conflict, or while delineating boundaries an

Abstract:
Though Kierkegaard never explicitly formulated a theory of religious doctrine, he did have a clear position on the role that Christian doctrine ought to play in the lives of believers. Briefly stated, he maintained that Christianity, as a human activity, involves more than merely believing certain propositions about matters of fact. The doctrines of Christianity take on a true religious significance only when they are given the power to transform the lives of those who accept them; only when they are given expression in the existence of the believer.

Christians and Muslims both believe that there is only one God, but they differ over how this God is one, with Muslims rejecting the Christian doctrine of the Trinity. This study first surveys Islamic arguments against the Trinity from the Qur’ān, historical corruption of doctrine, and reason. It then widens the scope of the discussion in order to find bridges between the Islamic and Christian doctrines of God. After explaining that the rationale behind the doctrine of the Trinity is that God saves in Christ, the study draws parallels between, on the one hand, the Islamic doctrines of th

This article argues that Islamic theological doctrines emerged out of broad late antique religious trends. Such trends were reflected in Judaism and Christianity, but also transcended them. In support of this view, the article systematically examines parallels between Islamic theological doctrines, and those found in the late antique religions of Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Christianity, and Manichaeism. It is argued that all of these religions share six basic doctrines: (1) belief in one morally-concerned Supreme Being (2) belief in lesser spirit beings that are good or bad (3) belief in prophet

Abstract:
The Christian tradition, both East and West, has developed various models and theories of the atonement as explanations of what it means to speak of the reconciling activity of God in Christ. Central to these has been the claim that God has reconciled the world to himself in Christ. One way of testifying to the reconciling love of God has been the adoption of the metaphor theosis (�divinization�, �deification�) as an explanation of salvation. While central to Eastern Orthodoxy, a doctrine of theosis also has a rich tradition within Western, especially Reformed theology. The Reformed theologian

The importance and richness of 1 Peter�s soteriological language is generally acknowledged by commentators.

By the middle of the second century, Gnostic sects were multiplying and varied widely in doctrine and practice, as each teacher proposed a different private revelation of knowledge.
