Produktinformationen zu „The Christs of God (ePub)“
In the Old Testament, an anointed one would be a king or a member of the temple hierarchy, such as a priest or a Levite. In the New Testament, Paul introduced an entirely different understanding of Christ. A Christ of God was anyone anointed with the life of God as His offspring, whether or not that the person was aware of being a child of God. The word Christian applied only to those who chose to be born again by being raised from the dead. Thus, we must let go of the life we have been living in order to take on the life of God. We are then a Christ of God, just as Jesus was a Christ of God.
In a detailed study of this concept, the Reverend Canon George Cummings contextualizes his lifelong reading and study of the Scriptures, following the thread of the message of the Gospel from its origin in the Old Testament to its triumphant re-emergence and re-signification in the writings the New Testament. Drawing upon his years of reflection and use of Greek text, Cummings posits a conception of the presence of God as Christ in us, so that we might live the life of God as it is revealed in the person of Jesus, the Messenger of the New Covenant.
