It does not assume that the controversy begins with Arius, but with tensions among existing theological strategies. Lewis Ayres argues that, just as we cannot speak of one `Arian' theology, so we cannot speak of one `Nicene' theology either, in 325 or in 381. The second part of the book offers an account of the theological practices and assumptions within which pro-Nicene theologians assumed their short formulae and creeds were to be understood. Ayres also argues that there is no fundamental division between eastern and western trinitarian theologies at the end of the fourth century. The last section of the book challenges modern post-Hegelian trinitarian theology to engage with Nicaea more deeply.Herstellungsland und -region: GBGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityThematik: Music Dance & TheatreAutor: Lewis AyresTitle Format: TaschenbuchInformation fehlt?Bitte kontaktieren Sie uns, wenn Details fehlen und wir werden diese solange möglich zu unserer Beschreibung hinzufügen., Festpreisangebot, [LT: FixedPrice], Buchtitel: Nicaea and its Legacy, EAN: 9780198755050, Erscheinungsdatum: 20.04.2006, Höhe: 234mm, Länge: 156mm, Breite: 28mm, Gewicht: 712g, Sprache: Englisch, Subtitle: An Approach to Fourth-Century Trinitarian Theology, ISBN-10: 0198755058, Herstellungsland und -region: GB, Genre: Philosophy & Spirituality, Thematik: Music Dance & Theatre, Oxford University Press<

[EAN: 9780198755050], Neubuch, [PU: Oxford University Press, USA May 2006], NICEA, NICENE, CONCILIAR, ECUMENICAL COUNCILS, TRINITARIAN, TRINITY, CHRISTOLOGY, CREED, Ayres states that his intended audience includes students of early Christianity and modern Christian theologians. To the latter group, Ayres suggests 'that recent Trinitarian theology has engaged the legacy of Nicaea at a fairly shallow level, frequently relying on assumptions about Nicene theology that are historically indefensible.' Catholic and Orthodox theologians, he says, are especially bound to engage Nicaea, but he intends to show that 'the complex theologies of pro-Nicenes involve an attention to Scripture that should claim the attention of all who define their faith as 'scriptural.'' Ayres understands the crucial point of the ancient conflict: a proper scriptural understanding of the Son is at the heart of the Christian message. A Son less than the Father is less a Christ, and therefore, we receive a diminished salvation. The question then for the Nicenes was how to articulate distinction and avoid the inference of subordination. By the end of his book, Ayres shows that the doctrines articulated in the Nicene era were the hard-won (and, we might add, beautiful) product of spiritual reflection on Holy Writ, and a deep, intelligent devotion we would do well to imitate today. 475 pp., Books<
