Dr. David Reese And The Three Errors Of Phrenology: Religion, Anatomy, And Moral Insanity, Philip Hardt Jan 2023

Dr. David Reese And The Three Errors Of Phrenology: Religion, Anatomy, And Moral Insanity, Philip Hardt

The Asbury Journal

Today, phrenology is a mostly-forgotten and thoroughly medically disgraced theory of human behavior. Yet, in its mid-nineteenth century heyday, it not only claimed to explain one’s personality based on the size of the bumps on one’s head but also (scarily) attempted to push prison reform in a less punitive direction. Somewhat surprisingly, as phrenology crossed the Atlantic in the 1820s, a number of doctors, professors, and ordinary citizens accepted and promoted its rather startling claims. At the same time, traditionalists response is exemplifies by Dr. David M. Reese, a highly regarded physician in Manhattan who opposed its attack on (mainly …

Sidney W. Edwards: Early Holiness/Methodist Missionary Pioneer In Cuba, Puerto Rico, And Costa Rica, Robert A. Danielson

The Asbury Journal

Holiness missions is an area of mission history that is often understudied, yet it can provide insight into the growth of the Church in various parts of the world. This article examines the life of Sidney W. Edwards, a Holiness missionary who was a key part of H. C. Morrison’s missionary efforts. He served as the missionary of a mission H. C. Morrison founded in Cuba, as one of the first Holiness missions in the Caribbean. He then went on to serve in Puerto Rico with the Methodist Episcopal Church in planting churches in some of the mountainous regions of …


Psalm 1a–B (1:1–2:12 As Combined And A Chiasm): What Yhwh Knows About People’S Paths And Plans That Will Perish, W. Creighton Marlowe Jan 2023

Psalm 1a–B (1:1–2:12 As Combined And A Chiasm): What Yhwh Knows About People’S Paths And Plans That Will Perish, W. Creighton Marlowe

The Asbury Journal

This article seeks to explore whether a division really exists between Psalm 1 and Psalm 2. The author argues that the presence of a chiasm which extends throughout the two psalms gives potential further evidence for the argument that the two psalms where once part of one continuous literary creation. The themes involve the laws of YHWH and the consequences of breaking these laws both for individuals and for nations.

Cruciform Teaching: Reflections On The Way Of Jesus The Challenge Of The Cross, And Teaching, Ruth Anne Reese Jan 2023

Cruciform Teaching: Reflections On The Way Of Jesus The Challenge Of The Cross, And Teaching, Ruth Anne Reese

The Asbury Journal

Jesus’s way of life was one of humility and utter reliance upon God. This way of life ultimately led to the cross and to God’s raising of Jesus from the dead. Similarly, Christian teachers are also called to a way of humility and dependance upon God as they pursue the vocation of teaching.

The Slaughtered Lamb Shepherds With A Rod Of Iron: The Use Of Psalm 2:9 In Revelation, Daniel Ethan Harris Jan 2023

The Slaughtered Lamb Shepherds With A Rod Of Iron: The Use Of Psalm 2:9 In Revelation, Daniel Ethan Harris

The Journal of Inductive Biblical Studies

With Revelation as the book of the New Testament that refers most frequently to Ps 2, and with Ps 2 as the Psalm to which Revelation alludes most often, John repeatedly invites hearers and readers to give attention to his usage of the second Psalm as a tool for conveying his apocalyptic understanding of the role and identity of the Messiah. Recognition of John’s recurrent utilizationof the verb from the LXX of Ps 2:9 (“to shepherd”) rather than the Hebrew (“to break”) forms a verbal thread through which John subverts militaristic expectations of a messiah who conquers through violence by …


Baptism Paganized And Demonized, W. B. Godbey Jan 2023

Baptism Paganized And Demonized, W. B. Godbey

William B. Godbey

Christ was made manifest to destroy the works of the devil. (1 John 3: 8.) The work of the devil is not only sin but all the effects of sin, i. e., sickness and all the combinations of the enemy to bring hell on earth. When Jesus was preaching to the woman at Jacob's well, she responded to Him: "We know that Messiah who will restore all things." Jesus responds: "I who speak to the am He," thus acquiescing in the great open mankind, i. e., the final restitution of all things. Peter in his afternoon sermon at Pentecost said …


La Biblia En Su Contexto : Cómo Mejorar Su Estudio De Las Escrituras, Craig S. Keener, David Gomero, Yaíma Gutiérrez Jan 2023

La Biblia En Su Contexto : Cómo Mejorar Su Estudio De Las Escrituras, Craig S. Keener, David Gomero, Yaíma Gutiérrez

Spanish Resources/Recursos en Español

En los días de Josías, el libro de la ley fue encontrado en el templo, y la humilde respuesta por parte de Josías a lo que el libro exigía cambió su generación. Más adelante, Jesús enfrentó a los líderes religiosos de Su tiempo, quienes, con tanta preocupación por la ley, la habían enterrado bajo sus tradiciones religiosas. sDurante la Edad Media, numerosas órdenes monásticas encontraban a menudo que la iglesia (u otras órdenes anteriores) se encontraba corrompida y lejos del mensaje de los apóstoles, y les llamaba a que lo retomaran.
