The Christian doctrine of God has traditionally been presented in two parts: an account of the existence and attributes of God on the one hand, and an account of God's triunity on the other. The present study is an analysis of Karl Barth's doctrine of the divine attributes (or 'perfections'), as it appears in his "Church Dogmatics II/1". Barth's doctrine of the divine perfections has received comparatively little attention, and what attention it has received is typically very selective. Authors unaware of larger, structural themes in Barth's account often misconstrue significant details of Barth's text. Others wrongly discount the implications of Barth's doctrine of the perfections for his theology as a whole. The aim of this study is primarily to clarify what Barth says about the perfections and secondarily to relate this to broader themes in Barth's theology. "T&T Clark Studies in Systematic Theology" is a series of monographs in the field of Christian doctrine, with a particular focus on constructive engagement with major topics through historical analysis or contemporary restatement.

The bestselling author of The Lamb’s Supper continues his thoughtful exploration of the complex relationship between the Bible and the Catholic liturgy in a revelatory work that will appeal to all readers. Scott Hahn has inspired millions of readers with his perceptive and unique view of Catholic theology and worship, becoming one of the most looked-to contemporary authorities in these areas. In Letter and Spirit, Hahn extends the message he began in The Lamb’s Supper, offering far-reaching and profound insights into what the Bible teaches us about living the spiritual life. For both Christians and Jews, the texts of the Bible are not simply records of historical events. They are intended, through public recitations in churches and synagogues, to bring listeners and readers into the sweeping story of redemption as it unfolds in the Bible. Focusing on the Catholic Mass, Hahn describes how God’s Word is meant to open our eyes to the life-giving power of the sacraments, and how the liturgy brings about the “actualization” of the saving truths of Scripture. Letter and Spirit is a stunningly original contribution to the field of biblical studies and will help Hahn’s many loyal and enthusiastic readers understand the relationship between the Bible and the Mass in a deeper way.

"A devastating attack upon the dominance of atheism in science today." Giovanni Fazio, Senior Physicist, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics The debate over the ultimate source of truth in our world often pits science against faith. In fact, some high-profile scientists today would have us abandon God entirely as a source of truth about the universe. In this book, two professional astronomers push back against this notion, arguing that the science of today is not in a position to pronounce on the existence of God—rather, our notion of truth must include both the physical and spiritual domains. Incorporating excerpts from a letter written in 1615 by famed astronomer Galileo Galilei, the authors explore the relationship between science and faith, critiquing atheistic and secular understandings of science while reminding believers that science is an important source of truth about the physical world that God created.

We must follow the direction of Jesus Christ who said,"Search the Scriptures, for in them ye think ye have eternal life, for they are they which testify of me," (John 5:39). Jesus knew the Scriptures must be searched in order to find the hidden things of God. The writings of Moses and other prophets came together in 1611 A.D. in the center of the world, in London, England under the guidance of King James 1st. The words of the New Testament were also directed by the Lord God, and the OLD and the NEW Testaments together would become 1 Bible with 66 books. The most mysterious verse of Scripture in the entire Bible is found in Revelation 13:18, where mankind has sought out its meaning since 1611 A.D. This verse of Scripture has been a mystery to every Biblical student since it was first written in 96 A.D. Its meaning is now explained in the book, "Letters From God", and it will bring the truth of this Scripture to the minds of Spiritual men. Soon the antichrist will appear on the earth, where he will fight with the saints of God and prevail against them, (Daniel 7:25). He will have 42 months in which to do this. He will change laws and times, and will force everyone in the world to receive the Mark Of The Beast, and he will sit on a throne in Jerusalem, claiming that he is God. Satan has taken many secret steps to arrange for himself to be recognized as an equal to Jesus Christ, which is something he can never be. The secret things Satan has done to prepare for his entry into the world as the antichrist are listed in this book, and will astound those who have been watching for his emergence. He will come from the most unexpected place, carrying out the most secret underhanded plot ever in the history of the world. The antichrist is the Great Deceiver and he will deceive many in the span of 42 months before he is defeated by Jesus Christ.

This document's purpose is to spell out the Church's understanding of the nature of revelation--the process whereby God communicates with human beings. It touches upon questions about Scripture, tradition, and the teaching authority of the Church. The major concern of the document is to proclaim a Catholic understanding of the Bible as the "word of God." Key elements include: Trinitarian structure, roles of apostles and bishops, and biblical reading in a historical context.
