Description
The Politics of Jesus: Vicit Agnus NosterTradition has painted a portrait of a Savior aloof from governmental concerns and whose teachings point to an apolitical life for his disciples. How, then, are we to respond today to a world so thoroughly entrenched in national and international affairs? But such a picture of Jesus is far from accurate, argues John Howard Yoder. Using the texts of the New Testament, Yoder critically examines the traditional portrait of Jesus as an apolitical figure
Tradition has painted a portrait of a Savior aloof from governmental concerns and whose teachings point to an apolitical life for his disciples. How, then, are we to respond today to a world so thoroughly entrenched in national and international affairs? But such a picture of Jesus is far from accurate, argues John Howard Yoder. Using the texts of the New Testament, Yoder critically examines the traditional portrait of Jesus as an apolitical figure and attempts to clarify the true impact of Jesus' life, work, and teachings on his disciples' social behavior. The book first surveys the multiple ways the image of an apolitical Jesus has been propagated, then canvasses the Gospel narrative to reveal how Jesus is rightly portrayed as a thinker and leader immediately concerned with the agenda of politics and the related issues of power, status, and right relations. Selected passages from the epistles corroborate a Savior deeply concerned with social, political, and moral issues. In this thorough revision of his acclaimed 1972 text, Yoder provides updated interaction with publications touching on this subject. Following most of the chapters are new epilogues that summarize research conducted during the last two decades -- research that continues to support the insights set forth in Yoder's original work. Currently a standard in many college and seminary ethics courses, The Politics of Jesus is also an excellent resource for the general reader desiring to understand Christ's response to the world of politics and his will for those who would follow him.Binding Type: Paperback

Monkee-doodle loves that it has a crinkle sound when playing tug-of -war
Color: Crinkle Chicken (Yellow), Size: Large
Monkee-doodle likes this toy because it has a squeaker and it also has a crinkle noise maker inside. She loves playing with the toy and it’s easy to spot since it is bright yellow in color. It is suitable for dogs and doesn’t have any pieces that can come loose and harm your pet.

Love it.
Color: Bunny (Beige), Size: Large
Good quality and well worth the price. My dog loves it. The squeaky part is fun, and the crinkly, tear-resistant paper in the ears makes playtime even more exciting.
