Series: Romans       Basically Good or Basically Bad?  Romans 3:1-20 A key theological and sociological issue is “what is the nature of man?”  Historical Christianity contends that the nature of man is sinful.  Romans 3:1-8 Privilege does not fix the human heart.    Majority does not equal correct.     Romans 3:9-20 We are all contaminated.  Sin affects every area of our life.  Sin ruins our standing before God.   what about good actions?  ·      To be “truly good” something must be good in both form and motive.   ·      Good actions must be evaluated by a larger context.   why am I not as “bad” as some people?   ·      The restraining power of the Holy Spirit ·      The fear of retribution ·      The "self-righteous" cloak of Satan  Christianity teaches there is nothing we can do about our sin.  For us to be delivered from sin an outside agent is necessary.   Christ died to deliver us from the judgment of our sins.  For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, just as it is written: The righteous will live by faith.Romans 1:16

"Emerson – Never have I felt so much at home in a book, and in my home, as – I may not praise it… it is too close to me... The author who has been richest in ideas in this century so far, has been an American..." (Nietzsche) Ralph Waldo Emerson is one of the most influential minds in America, as a leading figure in the Transcendentalist movement that emerged during the mid-1800s, a personal friend and strong influence on Thoreau, and a preacher outside of any church or dogma. Emerson believed that what he called "Historical Christianity" had rendered the Christian religion a dead faith. Rather than educating men's spirits as to the meaning of their individual strivings and sufferings, or relating the wisdom of the Bible to their actual lives, preachers merely uttered moral sentiments and taught their flocks by rote. After departing the Harvard Divinity School, Emerson lectured all around America for 25 years. He was part of the Lyceum movement, which aimed to bring such philosophical lectures to general audiences - transmitting philosophy to the people, rather than just those within academia. While Emerson has sometimes been portrayed as an 'easy optimist' with a positive message, he was a man of intense feeling whose life was marred by tragedy. His answer to the suffering of his life was to transmute it into a sincerely personal and individual spirituality, and an understanding of all life as expressions of one divinity: The Over-Soul. The link between Emerson and Nietzsche is one that is oft-overlooked, even now. Some have called this a kind of perennial oversight, an absurdly repeating blind spot in approaching Nietzsche. Perhaps this is because the two men have as many differences as they do similarities. And yet, when we look within Nietzsche's journals and letters, and even within his published works, the influence of Emerson is made stunningly clear. Throughout the episode, we examine how concepts such as the personal v/s the impersonal, the use and abuse of history, the celebration and acceptance of all life's circumstances, the use of a monistic principle to explain all life - were all part of Emerson's philosophy as much as Nietzsche's. Both men were, in Emerson's coinage, "children of the fire": the souls who perceive the beauty of the divine fire underlying all life and existence, and give it voice in poetry, philosophy, and song.

Historical Christianity defines human dignity according to the Biblical teaching that man is made in God’s image, but since the Enlightenment this view has been consistently challenged by various secular philosophies. Dr. Ben Smith explains why the secular alternatives to Christianity fail, and what this means for men and women in the modern world. Benjamin L. Smith, Ph.D. graduated Cum Laude from Belmont University with a B.A. in History and Philosophy and served two years as the President of Phi Sigma Tau. During this time he entered the Catholic Church (1995). He earned an M.A. in Philosophy from the Catholic University of America and a Ph.D. in Philosophy from the Center for Thomistic Studies. Dr. Smith has presented and published professionally, including a forthcoming article, “Imago Dei: Nature, Grace, and Glory According to Saint Thomas Aquinas.”

Grace Upon Grace, Chapter 5A - God grants grace through the presence and ministry of His Spirit. The Church needs a restoration of the understanding and experience of the Spirit.

HOST:Brenda Johnson Is the Emergent Church Christian? Is Christianity morphing and changing into what it should have been a long time ago? Or is it something "other"? Is it New Age philosophy rising from within the Church? Or is this all a conspiriacy? How do we reconcile the differences of Historical Christianity and the "New Kind of Christianity" proclaimed by the Emergent Church? We will compare the Emergent Church with the New Age....In the end you can decide.
