Images of the Church in the New Testament (New Testament Library)

Paul Sevier Minear
4.9/5 (17728 ratings)
Description:'The bride of Christ' & 'the cup of the Lord' are among many terms in the New Testament that are simply taken for granted or whose underlying symbolic or figurative meanings aren't well understood. The reader can easily assume that a passage is understood without fully grasping the meaning of the terms used. Minear's profound study of the implications of a hundred terms in the New Testament offers a deeper understanding of what the Christian Church really is. This pioneering work allows the reader to uncover the true nature of the Church thru the extensive gallery of images in the New Testament. The range of connotations communicated by a particular image is analysed against the historical background. Minear shows that images can communicate more than language alone; they can also broaden the mind of an individual, forming a particular mode for perceiving & understanding a given reality. The minor images of the church in the New Testament are investigated thru to the people of God & the body of Christ. The final chapter assesses the interrelations of the images analysed & the inferences to be drawn from their interweaving.
