An introduction to ongoing debates on the apostle Paul's life and teaching and his letters' ramifications for the Church of today. The apostle Paul was a vital force in the development of Christianity. Paul's historical and religious context affects the theological interpretation of Paul's writings, no small issue in the whole of Christian theology. Recent years have seen much controversy about the apostle Paul, his religious and social context, and its effects on his theology. In the helpful Counterpoints format, four leading scholars present their views on the best framework for describing Paul's theological perspective, including his view of salvation, the significance of Christ, and his vision for the churches. Contributors and views include: Reformed View: Thomas R. Schreiner Catholic View: Luke Timothy Johnson Post-New Perspective View: Douglas Campbell Jewish View: Mark D. Nanos Like other titles in the Counterpoints: Bible and Theology collection, Four Views on the Apostle Paul gives theology students the tools they need to draw informed conclusions on debated issues. General editor and New Testament scholar Michael F. Bird covers foundational issues and provides helpful summaries in his introduction and conclusion. New Testament scholars, pastors, and students of Christian history and theology will find Four Views on the Apostle Paul an indispensable introduction to ongoing debates on the apostle Paul's life and teaching. The Counterpoints series presents a comparison and critique of scholarly views on topics important to Christians that are both fair-minded and respectful of the biblical text. Each volume is a one-stop reference that allows readers to evaluate the different positions on a specific issue and form their own, educated opinion.

(Note: this is the Black and White version of the same book in color). Thirteen of the 27 books in the New Testament are attributed to the Apostle Paul. He amazingly travelled over 10,000 miles in his quest to spread Christianity. But lost in history is that his last missionary trip between the years 64-66AD was to Hispania, as Spain was known during Roman Empire times. In this book Dr. Figueredo connects a number of historical and biblical elements previously considered unrelated to the Apostle Paul's missionary trip to Hispania. He then connects them to new evidence he has uncovered to weave a new set of arguments that together present the compelling evidence that Paul did in fact make his last missionary trip to Hispania. Unfortunately, upon his return to Rome in the middle of the brutal persecution of Christians by Emperor Nero, he was quickly arrested and beheaded. In the process of researching Paul's visit to Hispania, Dr. Figueredo uncovered some amazing historical facts that position Hispania/Spain as a Christian Region that became just as important as Rome in the early evolution of Christianity. For example, did you know that the first Christian Council ever in the history of the Church, where strict rules and norms were published for Christians to follow, took place in Hispania in the year 302AD? These rules and norms had a lot of the same characteristics of Paul's letters, and they were published by the 19 Bishops present in this Council, all of them from Hispania, without consulting with Rome, Jerusalem, nor any other Christian region at that time. These bishops felt they had the authority to publish such strict rules and norms, and to do it independent of Rome or Jerusalem. They must have been given that authority directly by one of the Apostles, who himself must have felt he had the independent authority to proclaim his version of what Christ had instructed him. The only Apostle that fits this description is Paul of Tarsus.Did you also know that the Bishop that Emperor Constantine named to preside over the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD, considered the most important Council in the history of the Church, was Bishop Osio from Cordoba, in Hispania? Why would Constantine choose a Bishop from Hispania and not the Bishop of Rome, nor the Bishop of Jerusalem, nor even of Constantinople, to preside over the Council of Nicaea, attended by over 300 other bishops from Christendom? This is the Council from which we get the Nicene Creed, the statement of faith for all Christians, recited every day in Mass, and it was presided by a Bishop from Hispania. Constantine had to have felt that Christianity in Hispania had advanced to the most important levels of the religion, and that Bishop Osio would have had the independent authority to strongly support his beliefs of what this new religion represented. And Osio's independent authority must have come from the only Apostle who considered himself independent from the Twelve Apostles in Jerusalem. Did you also know Spain led the most important expansion of the religion in the history of Christianity? These and other important historical and biblical elements are presented by Dr. Figueredo. EXPLORE the remarkable evidence uncovered by Dr. Figueredo that leave no doubt Paul made Hispania his las missionary trip and DISCOVER the astonishing historical findings that confirm Spain's enormous influence in the evolution, protection, and expansion of Christianity.

This volume addresses the question of the Apostle Paul's literary and theological influences on Polycarp of Smyrna. To this end, the most detailed analysis in print of Polycarp's dependence on earlier literature--both biblical and extra-biblical--is undertaken in the first part of the book. This general analysis forms the basis for the study of three questions: 1) Is Polyarp an imitator of Paul? 2) Whom does Polycarp think is the author of the Pastoral Epistles? 3) To what degree is Polycarp influenced by the theology of Paul? This volume will be of particular interest to anyone studying the Apostolic Fathers, the reception of Paul in the second century, the concept of imitation, and the authorship of the Pastoral Epistles.
