Progressive Christians associated with the YMCA soon launched the Citizenship Education Movement in 1924 as they tried to combine Christian virtue with China's broader national demands. While their association of modern citizenship with virtue cultivation was not new, these Christians did attempt something unique, which was to define a good citizen as a world citizen, whose belief in God meant one is loyal ultimately to certain universal values instead of the nation-state. As the Movement continued, the relationship between one's devotion to these higher values and that to the Chinese nation-state remained a complex and often competitive one. Although the Movement ended largely with the end of its visionary, Yu Rizhang, its momentum was harnessed by the Nationalist Party in the New Life Movement. The latter, however, omitted the language of God and universal values at the same time as it injected the nation-state, and the Party in particular, as the sole receiver of loyalty and granter of privilege. Thus the decade-long history of the YMCA's Citizenship Education Movement testifies to the association between one's religious devotion and an internationalist understanding of citizenship. </jats:p>}, Doi = {10.3366/swc.2020.0281}, Key = {fds358256} } %% Booth, Adam @article{fds344928, Author = {Booth, ADP}, Title = {“A Death Like his”: Saul's Privation and Restoration of Sight as Prophetic Formation in Acts 9}, Journal = {Journal of Disability & Religion}, Volume = {22}, Number = {1}, Pages = {42-62}, Publisher = {Informa UK Limited}, Year = {2018}, Month = {January}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/23312521.2018.1437003}, Doi = {10.1080/23312521.2018.1437003}, Key = {fds344928} } %% Brummitt, Jamie L. @article{fds326674, Author = {Brummitt, J}, Title = {The Frontiers of Immortality}, Booktitle = {Human, Transhuman, Posthuman: Emerging Technologies and the Boundaries of Homo Sapiens}, Publisher = {Learning}, Editor = {Pasulka, D and Bess, M}, Year = {2018}, Key = {fds326674} } @article{fds326675, Author = {Brummitt, J}, Title = {Black Muslims, White Jesus: Destroying Racial Images of God with CRAID and W.D.

Instead of treating orientalism as a textual phenomenon, I argue that it is a continuous experiential process that comes as a result of encountering texts, objects, and others.

Discourses on progress sometimes cloud the ethical and moral issues of these practices, which we have inherited from older generations of Western scholars. I show how modern efforts and approaches remain insufficient in some cases, and more importantly how they primarily benefit scholars from or located in the West.

What shape should that anticipation and participation take? In other words, how does the resurrection influence ethical choices in the present? This paper draws on the work of historical and modern theologians to consider what effects the resurrection of the body has on Christian life in the present. It argues that the nature of embodied life in the resurrection affects our view of and our behavior towards our own bodies, the body of the church, and the bodies of other people in the world. While the paper sketches the outlines of an ethic based on the bodily resurrection in each of these areas, its main concern is with the spiritual attitude that informs and results from these ethical choices. As Dietrich Bonhoeffer observes, Christian ethics that focuses on the resurrection tends to fall into one of the two traps of otherworldliness or secularism. However, when attention is given to the spiritual effects of a resurrection-oriented ethic, both of these pitfalls can be avoided. Living in light of the resurrection sharpens our anticipation of heavenly glory, but it also proves our inability to attain that glory by our own power, forcing us to rely ever more on God as the source of our salvation. Thus, although living with reference to the resurrection of the body has positive influence on our ethical choices, the primary impact of such a life is to drive the Christian back to the Gospel.</jats:p>}, Doi = {10.6017/lv.v9i2.11131}, Key = {fds366774} } %% Porter, Nathan @article{fds367613, Author = {Porter, NE}, Title = {An Augustinian response to Bruce McCormack}, Journal = {Anglican Theological Review}, Volume = {105}, Number = {1}, Pages = {83-86}, Publisher = {SAGE Publications}, Year = {2023}, Month = {February}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/00033286221128228}, Doi = {10.1177/00033286221128228}, Key = {fds367613} } @article{fds362314, Author = {Porter, N}, Title = {Letter as Spirit in Cyril of Alexandria: Typology and the Defense of Literal Exegesis}, Journal = {Journal of Early Christian Studies}, Volume = {31}, Number = {2}, Publisher = {Johns Hopkins University Press}, Year = {2023}, Abstract = {Cyril of Alexandria, often regarded as a mediating voice between Antiochene and Alexandrian exegetes, frequently cites his distinctively unitive Christology as warrant for literal interpretations of the Old Testament. That is, what scholars have regarded as rapprochement with Antiochene exegetes was partly motivated by a Christology with which they were at odds. For Cyril, Christological interpretation underwrites the integrity of the literal sense, for he holds that a typological connection with the self-humbling of the Word is very often good reason also to accept the truth of the ἱστορία. I consider several passages from Cyril's writings on the Old Testament, but special attention is given to a narrative that troubled many patristic commentators: the prophet Hosea’s marriage to Gomer. Cyril maintained that it must be interpreted literally, precisely because Hosea’s union with Gomer reflects the incarnate humility of Christ. To insist on the prophet’s moral purity would, in Cyril’s language, be to demand that Hosea be “holier than the all-holy God.” This reading appears to be unique among patristic commentators, and I will argue that this should be attributed specifically to Cyril’s opposition to Antiochene dual-subject Christologies.}, Key = {fds362314} } @article{fds362315, Author = {Porter, N}, Title = {Between the Cherubim: The ‘Mercy Seat’ as Site of Divine Revelation in Romans 3.25}, Journal = {Journal for the Study of the New Testament}, Volume = {44}, Number = {2}, Pages = {284-309}, Year = {2021}, Month = {December}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0142064X211049101}, Abstract = {Although the long-standing debate about the meaning of hilastērion in Rom. 3.25 has led to no consensus, readings are nearly always either (1) metaphorical (hilastērion as place of atonement/expiation) or (2) metonymic (hilastērion as a means of atonement/expiation). However, in many Second Temple Jewish texts, the word refers to a place of divine revelation. Proposing a fresh semantic topology of usages of hilastērion, this article argues that there is no unambiguous metonymic usage of the word, and that references to atonement in Lev. 16 are secondary to the revelatory function of the ‘mercy seat’. Attending to overlooked intertextual complexities, it suggests that the hilastērion was the site where God promised to reveal the definitive interpretation of his law.

In order to gain the greatest amount of data on the Fourth Gospel's text transmission, I rely on several sources. Occasionally these sources conflict in their rendering of a variant; I have tried to make note of these discrepancies and look at photographs of witnesses whenever possible. Although this study is primarily focused on Greek and Vetus Latina witnesses, an occasional noteworthy variant (e.g., from a Syriac or Vulgate witness) may be mentioned when relevant to the subject at hand. The work of many established redaction critics, who have already hypothesized that Martha was not present in an earlier form of this Gospel story, will also be addressed.</jats:p>}, Doi = {10.1017/s0017816016000213}, Key = {fds343465} } %% Slade, Kara N @misc{fds316281, Author = {Slade, K}, Title = {Singing Down to the Dust (Commentary on The Anticipatory Corpse: Medicine, Power, and the Care of the Dying, by Jeffrey P.

Later, “caught by truth” in a Japanese prison, Chao instead turned to Christian transcendence as the necessary corrective for the challenges and crises in Chinese culture and society.}, Doi = {10.1177/2396939319836251}, Key = {fds349190} } @article{fds339332, Author = {Sun, Z}, Title = {Translating the Christian moral message: Reading Liang Fa's Good Words to Admonish the Age in the tradition of morality books}, Journal = {Studies in World Christianity}, Volume = {24}, Number = {2}, Pages = {98-113}, Year = {2018}, Month = {August}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.3366/swc.2018.0215}, Abstract = {This paper seeks to interpret Good Words to Admonish the Age, the most important writing of the first Chinese Protestant pastor, Liang Fa (1789-1855), in its complex relations with the tradition of morality books (shan shu). By doing so, the paper attempts to show Liang's subversive adoption of an existing social and religious genre that enjoyed widespread acceptance at the time. While Liang affirms the significance of moral values, he also distinguishes those practices held by morality books as meritorious from actual moral uprightness. In contrast, moral good for Liang is a result of divine intervention (that is, salvation) and a Christian duty, thus transcending the conventional purpose of earthly reward or securing one's own fate for blessings. In crafting his Good Words, the morality-book tradition forms an essential point of contact that Liang appropriated and adapted for delivering his Christian message - a message that is also in competition with the conventional moral view of salvation. For Liang, these moral tenets, which he still holds dear after his conversion, now culminate in a theological knowledge of God and his salvation plan.}, Doi = {10.3366/swc.2018.0215}, Key = {fds339332} } @article{fds339333, Author = {Vala, CT and Huang, J and Sun, J}, Title = {Protestantism, community service and evangelism in contemporary China}, Journal = {International Journal for the Study of the Christian Church}, Volume = {15}, Number = {4}, Pages = {305-319}, Publisher = {Informa UK Limited}, Year = {2015}, Month = {October}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/1474225X.2015.1115252}, Abstract = {What are Chinas Protestants doing outside the walls of their homes and churches?
