Free Download Pagan Inscriptions, Christian Viewers: The Afterlives of Temples and Their Texts in the Late Antique Eastern Mediterranean (Cultures of Reading in the Ancient Mediterranean) by Anna M. Sitz
English | March 17th, 2023 | ISBN: 0197666434 | 352 pages | True EPUB/PDF | 36.04 MB
What did people in the early Christian period think about the pagan inscriptions filling their late antique cities? Like public advertisements lining our streets today, these inscriptions were everywhere and communicated specific messages to literate late Roman viewers, often providing a very different view of the classical past than that being preached from early Christian church pulpits. In Pagan Inscriptions, Christian Viewers, Anna M. Sitz provides a fresh perspective on the Christianization of the Roman empire from the fourth to the seventh century CE by analyzing a previously overlooked body of evidence: the many ancient, pagan inscriptions, written in Greek or other languages, which were reused, preserved, or even partially erased in this period.

Free Download Seeing God: The Beatific Vision in Christian Tradition By Hans Boersma
2018 | 512 Pages | ISBN: 0802876048 | PDF | 6 MB
When we see God, are we looking with our physical eyes or with the mind’s eye? Both, says Hans Boersma in this sacramental and historical treatment of the beatific vision. Focusing on "vision" as a living metaphor, Boersma shows how the vision of God is accessible already today.Seeing Godis a historical study, but it also includes a dogmatic articulation of key characteristics that contribute to our understanding of the beatific vision. Theologians, philosophers, and literary authors have long maintained that the invisible God becomes visible to us. Boersma shows how God trains us to see his character by transforming our eyes and minds, highlighting continuity from this world to the next. Christ-centred, sacramental, and ecumenical in character,Seeing Godpresents life as a pilgrimage to see the face of God in the hereafter.

How do we understand and articulate our Christian faith in the age of science? Are the two in conflict?
