Ecclesiology in the New Testament: Exploring Petrine, Pauline, and Johannine Perspectives (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The book explores the theological and ecclesiological perspectives of the early Christian Church as presented in the New Testament and developed by the Apostles Peter, Paul, and John. The text delves into how each apostle contributed to shaping the Church's identity, structure, and mission, emphasizing key aspects such as the Church's foundation, authority, unity, and role in the world.

In the first chapters, the book highlights the teachings of Peter, particularly in his role as the rock upon which the Church is built, drawing from passages in the Gospels and Acts. The text then transitions to Paul's contributions, emphasizing his theological writings, particularly in the epistles, where he elaborates on the Church as the body of Christ, a community united by the Holy Spirit, and called to spread the gospel to all nations. The Johannine perspective, with a focus on the deep spiritual connection between the Church and the love of God, is explored in the context of the Gospel of John and the Johannine epistles, underscoring the church as the community of believers marked by love, unity, and the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit.
