Theology: Encyclopedia II - Theology - Divisions of theology
Theology can be divided up in any number of ways.

Theology: Encyclopedia II - Licentiate - Theology

The Licentiate of Theology was a sub-degree or diploma-level qualification offered by a number of educational institutions. The University of Wales, Lampeter LTh (Licence in Theology), introduced in 1940 by the then St David's College Lampeter, was intended for graduate ordinands, and is one year full-time, or two years part-time. The University of St Andrews also offered the LTh (Licence in Theology), a three-year course open to non-graduates. A three-year LTh is also available from the University of Edinburgh, a four-year qualification from Emmanuel College, Toronto, and a two-year post-graduate qualification (STL ...

Theology: Encyclopedia II - Paramahamsa - Theology

Paramahamsa, as a religio/theological title, is applied to an adept class of Hindu renunciates, liberated, realized masters who, having attained the supreme yogic state, or nirvikalpa samadhi, can always distinguish between the Real (sa) from the unreal (ham). The hamsa mantra indicates the sound made by the exhalation ("ha") and inhalation ("sa") of the breath. ...

Theology: Encyclopedia II - Manichaeism - Theology

The most striking principle of Manichee theology is its dualism, a theme gleaned from the Persian religion of Zoroastrianism. Mani postulated two natures that existed from the beginning: light and darkness. The realm of light lived in peace, while the realm of darkness was in constant fight with itself. The universe is the temporary result of an attack of the realm of darkness on the realm of light, and was created by the Living Spirit, an emanation of the light realm, o ...

Theology: Encyclopedia II - Tertullian - Theology

Tertullian - General character. Though thoroughly conversant with the Greek theology, Tertullian was independent of its metaphysical speculation. He had learned from the Greek apologies, and forms a direct contrast to Origen. Origen pushed his idealism in the direction of Gnostic spiritualism. Tertullian, the prince of realists and practical theologian, carried his realism to the verge of materialism. This is evident from his ascription to God of corporeity and his acceptance of the traducian theory of the origin ...

Theology: Encyclopedia II - Theotokos - Theology

The expression "Mother of God" or "Birth-giver of God" should not be understood in the eternal sense; that is, Mary is not understood as having eternally given birth to God the Son in the same way that he is eternally begotten by God the Father (see Holy Trinity and Nicene Creed). Rather, in the Incarnation, the divine person of God the Son took on a human nature in addition to his divine nature, and it is through Mary that this takes place. Since Jesus Christ is seen as both fully God and fully human, to call Mary the Birth-giver of God is to affirm the fullness of his Incarnation, and by ...

Theology: Encyclopedia II - Church of the Universe - Theology

The guiding rules of the church are variations on the Golden Rule: 1. Do not hurt yourself. 2. Do not hurt anyone else. However, there are other greater and lesser aspects of their worship. The Church of the Universe is a syncretic religion. Although often quoting from the Bible and other scriptures, the church disclaims a direct connection to Christianity. Indeed, it also accepts as valid sources of inspiration the ancient and modern sources such as culture of Sumer, pagan holidays of the solstices, Canada Day, the Knights Temp ...

Theology: Encyclopedia II - Ambrose - Theology

Though ranking with Augustine, Jerome, and Gregory the Great, as one of the Latin Doctors of the Church, he is most naturally compared with Hilary, whom he surpasses in administrative excellence as much as he falls below him in theological ability. Even here, however, his achievements are of no mean order, especially when we remember his juridical training and his comparatively late handling of Biblical and doctrinal subjects. His great spiritual successor, Augustine, whose conversion was helped by Ambrose's sermons, owes more to ...

Theology: Encyclopedia II - Reinhold Niebuhr - Theology

Niebuhr's theology was not something thought up in the quiet of an academic environment. Rather, it grew out of his efforts to apply Christianity to the social, economic, and political spheres. For example, the cross of Christ was a particularly important theme for Niebuhr since it revealed the great paradox of powerlessness turned into power, of a love in justice that overcame the sinful world. Indeed, he gave his life to the application of theology in the ethical and political arena. It "focused more on the doctrine of man than on t ...

Theology: Encyclopedia II - Twelvers - Theology

Twelvers - Religious law the Sharia. The Jafari derive their Sharia, or religious law, from the Qur'an and the Sunnah. The difference between Sunni and Shi'a Sharia results from a Shi'a belief that Muhammad assigned Ali to be the first ruler and the leader after him (the Khalifa). Moreover, this designation (according to Shi'a) was dictated by Allah (God) (although there is no clear evidence). This difference resulted in Shi'a Muslims: Following hadith from Muhammad and the 12 Imams. Not acc ...

Theology: Encyclopedia II - God - Theology

Theologians attempt to explicate (and in some cases systematize) beliefs; some express their own experience of the divine. Theologians ask questions such as, 'What is the nature of God?' What does it mean for God to be singular? If people believe in God as a duality or trinity, what do these terms signify? Is God transcendent, immanent, or some mix of the two? What is the relationship between God and the universe, and God and mankind? Theism holds that God is both transcendent and immanent; thus, God is simultaneously infinite a ...

Holocaust theology refers to a body of theological and philosophical debate, soul-searching, and analysis, with the subsequent related literature, that attempts to come to grips with various conflicting views about the role of God in this human world and the dark events of the European Holocaust that occurred during World War II (1939-1945) when around 11 million people, including six million Jews were subjected to genocide by the Nazis and their cohorts. "Holocaust theology" is also referred to as "theology nach Auschwitz" ("after Auschwitz" in German), due to the common practice of using ...

Assurance is a Protestant Christian doctrine which states that the inner witness of the Holy Spirit allows the justified disciple to know that they are saved.
