Abraham Lincoln gave the blacks their freedom in America, King was to lead them to social justice. His association with white men as he matured changed from hatred to dislike to acceptance to friendship. This was his social preparation for his role; his studies in Theology and Philosophy were his intellectual and spiritual preparation. This book is a fascinating account of the inter-relationship of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the teachings and philosophies of the Church. While there are many books on, Dr. King, and while it would be impossible to write about him without studying these factors, the specific examination that Rev. Rahming covers lends a unique aspect not found in many books of much greater length. Perhaps one of the most significant aspects of this book is the way in which the author details how King saw the Church in regards to his civil rights mission and how his vision of the Church altered as his work progressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book makes fine supplementary reading material in Social Studies, Social Work, Political Science, Religion, Sociology, Black Studies and will serve pastors who deal with similar moral issues.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INDEPENDENT CAT","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51545228116258,"sku":"9781958004579-new","price":15.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4755\/5618\/files\/9781958004579.jpg?v=1776419549"},{"product_id":"these-words-we-speak-law-gospel-contemporary-conversations-9798889833543-new","title":"These Words We Speak: Law and Gospel in Contemporary Conversations","description":"\u003cp\u003eAll Lutherans speak about law and gospel, but what do these terms mean to those who use them? Across the fractured landscape of contemporary American Lutheranism, how might we learn to listen to each other? Matthew Borrasso proposes a thoughtful reframing of the conversation, centering law and gospel as God's address to and for the people God loves--that is, all people who live in this world. When we focus our attention on hearing God--and that of God in each other--we can begin to explore how different Lutherans see and express these core theological concepts without immediately dismissing the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough careful analysis and a clear-eyed view of the Lutheran landscape from the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America to the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, Borrasso demonstrates how important it is to ground all our words in the work of the Holy Spirit. These words we speak do not belong to us; rather, they are God's. In the words of American Lutheran theologian Martin Franzmann, \"With the meekness of Christ implanted in us we can be strong; we shall have confessional strength without rigidity, and we shall have firmness without contempt or malice.\" Lutherans of differing stripes may not agree, but with God at the center, we may learn again what it means to speak to--and hear--each other.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FORTRESS PR","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51565131694370,"sku":"9798889833543-new","price":24.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4755\/5618\/files\/9798889833543.jpg?v=1776989939"},{"product_id":"concordia-lutheran-confessions-a-readers-edition-book-concord-2nd-edition-9780758613431-new","title":"Concordia: The Lutheran Confessions-A Reader's Edition of the Book of Concord - 2nd Edition","description":"The Book of Concord is the authoritative collection of the Lutheran Church's statements of faith.

Founder of the Lutheran Church, his Protestant movement against the dominant Catholicism altered the course of European history. His fortitude in confronting and overcoming corruption within the Church hierarchy is legendary. He was a man of great intellect and unmatched moral courage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut Luther had other opponents: the Jews. Judaism not only repudiated Christian theology by denying that Jesus was the true savior or Messiah, but it also took on an air of supreme arrogance-Jews as special, as different, as \"chosen by God.\" As such, Jews are unwilling to repent, to accept Christ, or to see the true meaning of the Old Testament; hence they slander and insult Jesus, Mary, and indeed all Christians. Jews, said Luther, harbor an intense and deeply-rooted hatred for all non-Jews, and thus are willing to use, abuse, and exploit people for their own ends. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor Luther, Jews are arrogant and stubborn liars. They are greedy materialists, ever covetous of Christian wealth and power. They are congenital misanthropes, the master haters of humanity. And through their damnable usury-lending money at interest-they exploit, bankrupt, and enslave innocent people everywhere. Given the chance, said Luther, they would slaughter us all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHence his dramatic plan of action: destroy the synagogues, ban Judaic teaching, confiscate ill-gotten Jewish wealth, put Jews to hard labor, and ultimately, drive them out of Christian lands.
