Abstract:

В статье анализируются социальные аспекты поручительства при крещении взрослых людей на основании свидетельств христианских авторов III–V вв. Исследование направлено на определение отличий и особенностей роли крещальных поручителей и крестных родителей. В позднеантичную эпоху поручительство представляло собой временные отношения, основанные на договорных принципах, с целью обучения оглашенных основам христианского вероучения и нормам поведения в общине. Кандидат, желающий принять крещение, должен был пройти испытательный срок под надзором поручителя в рамках процесса христианской инициации. Те

Abstract:

AbstractThe Episcopal Church has come to espouse a developed form of baptismal ecclesiology, in which all laypersons are believed to be ministers by virtue of their baptism and the ordained ministry is understood as a particular form of the ministry of all the baptized. The adoption of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer was significant for this. Also included in that book was a 'Baptismal Covenant' that has come to be seen as an iconic statement of the Episcopal Church's commitment to social action and 'inclusion'. This article documents the genesis and content of this developed form of baptismal

Abstract:

Since the development of the early church, sexual ethics and the regulation of heterosexual relationships have been integral parts of Christian religious practice. Evangelical Christian communities are no exception to this pattern of regulation. In particular, this article makes three key arguments regarding Evangelical sexual practices. First, heterosexual relationships and marriage have become one of the most important (if not the most important) aspects of Evangelical religious and social practice, surmounting both Baptism and the Eucharist. Second, those in the Evangelical sub-culture tend

Abstract:

During China’s Republican Era (1912–1949), the True Jesus Church, comprising one of the largest indigenous Pentecostal/charismatic churches in China, created a whole set of exclusive salvation doctrines based on its unique biblical interpretation.

Abstract:

In his 1963 “Letter from a Birmingham Jail,” Martin Luther King Jr. criticizes “the white moderate,” identifying them as empathizing with the Civil Rights Movement, but not acting upon it. King’s “white moderate” compares to contemporary white Baptists who embody King’s definition. Putting “white moderate” in conversation with “moderate Baptists” demonstrates how moderate actions betray the Gospel. Exploring the identity of the clergy whom King addresses in his letter aids in drawing out a fuller definition of “moderate.” This article applies three aspects of King’s critique to contemporary Ba

Abstract The Baptist Union of Victoria (BUV) encourages local churches to give priority to contributing to the well-being of their local neighbourhoods through community engagement and advocacy.

But to what extent does the reality of BUV local church mission match this rhetoric? The 2016 National Church Life Survey (NCLS) helps identify what communit

A syndemic accelerates the polarization of access to health care, financial support, and education opportunities in marginalized communities, and the polarization breeds social injustice, violence, and ignorance.

A modification of the CRS (CRS-SOC) has been developed to include the social component of religiosity with two aspects: social connections with lay members of religious communities and with the clergy.

The Reformation was the religious representative of an encompassing breach in European history.

Baptism of itself pertains to a sacrament of transition from old to new, achieved by the death and resurrection of Jesus.

With regards to gender, the ritual of baptism is of interest in several respects. Gender and genderlessness, sexuality, and desire, as well as nudity and shame, play a crucial role in baptism, as the ceremony is linked to the Fall of Man and involves ritual nudity. Although the conversion to Christianity by means of baptism in biblical terms (Gal. 3:27–28) erases gender, race, and social status, the Christian practi

Abstract:

The article focuses on the issue of the sacrament of baptism as the foundation of the common priesthood on the basis of the teaching of pope Francis. The sacrament of Baptism confers the grace of overcoming the effects of original sin and also obliges the baptized to participate in the life of the Church and to realize the threefold mission of Christ, which is the result of the dignity of God’s adopted childhood received through his power: priestly, prophetic and royal. The aim is to update, based on the teaching of Pope Francis, the fruits of the grace of baptism that affect the mentality of

Abstract:

In this article, I argue that the ritual experience of water-baptism plays an essential role in Paul's metaphorical expression and rhetorical purpose in 1 Corinthians 12:13. To explore the role of baptism, I use conceptual blending theory from cognitive linguistics to define and demonstrate the metaphorical ways in which ritual functions in the human mind. In so doing, I emphasize the performance of a ritual itself and the contextual perception of its performance, arguing for a metaphorical relationship between the two. I apply conceptual blending analysis to interpret the complex interplay of

Abstract:

Despite the scholarly consensus regarding the logical importance of Paul’s reference to baptism in Gal. 3.27, there has been hardly any sustained analysis of why such a brief reference could be effective. With the recent emergence of interdisciplinary methods from cognitive science, memory studies, notions of embodiment, and ritual theories, this study explores the social impact of Paul’s reference to baptism. Paul simultaneously reinforces his authority over, and solidarity with, the Galatian communities in a ‘misrecognized’ manner – neither of which could be claimed by the ‘agitators’ agains

AbstractWe analyse the evolution of birth-baptism intervals between 1830 and 1949 among children born into 815 Spanish families and relate the changes observed to developments in childhood mortality. Our results show that birth-baptism intervals in our study area increased rapidly after 1890, three decades after childhood mortality began to decline and a decade before fertility began to fall. We confirm that the families increasing the intervals between their children's births and baptisms after 1890 were those whose previous children had high rates of survival.

If experience can be defined as the affectively charged interaction with the world by means of the body as agency or medium, various sites of such affectively charged interaction mapped on to the body may be fruitfully analysed to explain the operations of religion as discourse. Baptism is one such site. In fact, baptism as the shorthand for of collective noun denoting a spectrum of ritual practices is a particularly apposite example. Baptism as ritual practice has had a varied history, both in terms of originary context as well as interpretive or discursive trajectories. This essay primarily

A stereoscopic view on a particular historical event, in which contemporary assessments are combined with mental stereotypes of a medieval man, allows a slightly different assessment of the chronicle plot about the posthumous “baptism of bones” of Oleg and Yaropolk, Princes of Kyivan Rus, in 1044. While from theological positions it is perceived as an absurdity and a direct violation of the rules of the church, in the Middle Ages this act did not contradict the mass religious beliefs.

AbstractThere is growing recognition that language cannot be seen as a pregiven system that correlates with and simply manifests itself in social context, but as a form of social practice. However, this perspective has not yet made a serious impact on applied linguistic research, where dominant modern ideologies of language that tend to conceive of language as an entity with clear boundaries and autonomous structure still prevail. We argue that this problem reflects a general lack of critical reflection on the fundamental assumptions of the discipline, and make this point via a review of some

In Paedagogus 1.6.28, Clement describes baptism through the metaphor of a cataract surgery that enables the percipient to see God. In antiquity, cataract surgery was neither a common nor a safe procedure, which raises the question: why does Clement use such an unlikely metaphor for baptism? In this article, I demonstrate that this medical metaphor of cataract surgery enabled Clement to blur the line between the physical and the spiritual. The visual component of the metaphor allowed Clement to draw from Epicurean sensory perception and epistemology, which understood objects to emit tiny films

Receptive ecumenism and growth in communion offer significant recourse for gradually developing the tools for this recognition.

Abstract The English Civil War brought an end to government censorship of nonconformist texts. The resulting exegetical and hermeneutical battles waged over baptism among paedobaptists and Baptists continued well into the Restoration period. A survey of the post-Restoration polemical literature reveals the following themes: 1) the polemical ‘slippery slope’ is a major feature of these tracts. Dissenting paedobaptists believed that Baptists would inevitably become Quakers, despising baptism altogether, and that the resulting social instability would allow the tyranny of Roman Catholicism to ree

The proper understanding of the gospel of grace includes: that everyone belongs to one of the two domains of authority (either under the domain of l

Abstract For many, the evocative phrase ‘baptism in the Holy Spirit’ supplies ideological scaffolding for vital pneumatological concerns even though it is not found in Scripture.

The moral exhortation occasioned by the toga virilis warned the newly togaed youth against succumbing to the flesh, the same fear that Paul expresses concerning the baptized Galatians. This contextualization makes Paul's paraenesis on responsible use of freedom more intelligible than the standard h

The topic we present in this article is the iconography of the Baptism and its theological and typological aspects. It suggests discussion of the iconographic representation of this event. As is known, iconography is one of the most important means of communicating with God. According to the teachings of the Church, the basis of the veneration of icons is the Incarnation of the Second Person (Hypostasis) of the Holy Trinity. As a result of the Incarnation of God the Son, the invisible God became visible, the basis of which is the Incarnation of God. Iconography found its origin in the early Ch
