This article reflects on ways in which the idea of an ethical quality of life of the people of God can be contextualized. This idea is largely similar to the concept of the wholeness of life that is found in documents of the World Council of Churches. Attention is given to the results of efforts to improve the quality of life in Africa through modernization during the development era, as well as to the quality of life in post-apartheid South Africa. The consumer culture has a strong influence on rich and poor, but there are different forms of resistance to modernisation. These forms of resistance often become destructive. If the church wants to present an attractive life-giving alternative, we need a moral vision, even a new cosmology, as well as the technology, practices, life styles and other ways to make that vision a reality.

What does the affective-cognitive dimension of being human entails? Many contemporary scholars from theological (especially religious experience) perspectives as well as from evolutionary biological (especially neuroscientific) perspectives have made exciting inroads in the on-going anthropological discourses on this very dimension of being human. My article partially makes work of their respective contributions. For the former theological perspective I will utilize Pascal and Stoker. For the latter neuroscientific perspective I will concentrate on LeDoux and Damasio. I call my contribution an evolutionary-theological re-conceptualisation of religious experience for which I make use of Pascal’s famous words from his Pensees (1670) “The heart has its reasons which reason does not know” and “(i)t is the heart which experiences God and not the reason”. Therefore the title: With reasons of the heart before God. Such a formulation however immediately raises the question: Does such an emphasis on the “heart” re-introduce irrationality into the scientific scholarly dialogue? The answer is clear: Yes, it does. It is argued that it should be re-introduced constructively into contemporary science-theology discourses in order – on the one hand – to critically address the very accusation, and – on the other hand – to present us with a far richer, deeper understanding of personhood. From the constructive integration of the two perspectives, namely the theological and neuroscientific the words of Pascal is finally re-formulated from an evolutionary-theological perspective and qualified in which emotion is presented as the embodiment of the logic of survival.

In this paper, I show the critical role played by the Protestant and the Roman Catholic Churches with regard to the government’s abuse of human rights in Malawi in the years 2004 to 2012. I argue that the Protestant and Catholic leaders’ response to Bingu wa Mutharika’s government’s violation of human rights was influenced by a number of factors: first, the Church leaders’ perceptions of Wa Mutharika’s uneasiness about their critical voice. Second were the Church leaders’ perceptions of the weak position of the government. Finally, I argue that though not always uniform or consistent, the churches’ prophetic voice was occasionally undermined by their partisan interests, which sometimes were exploited by the government.
在本文中，我展示了新教和罗马天主教会在2004年至2012年马拉维政府侵犯人权方面发挥的关键作用。我认为新教和天主教领袖对Bingu wa Mutharika政府侵犯人权的反应受到以下几个因素的影响:首先，教会领袖认为wa Mutharika对他们的批评声音感到不安。其次是教会领袖对政府弱势地位的看法。最后，我认为，尽管教会的预言并不总是一致或一致的，但它们的党派利益有时会削弱它们的预言，而这些党派利益有时会被政府利用。

This article investigates the double story in Matthew of Jesus touching a woman with blood flow and a dead girl, with specific reference to purity regulations of the Hebrew Bible. According to Matthew it seems that Jesus did not perform any purity rituals after touching the impure woman and girl. Such negligence would have caused serious repercussions amongst the spectators. In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus explicitly states that He did not come to abolish the Law, but in this double story Jesus apparently abrogates purity regulations. It is suggested that Matthew purposefully describes these events to demonstrate how these Laws found their fulfilment in Jesus. Jesus is depicted as Emmanuel and Saviour. Instead of Him being polluted by touching these persons, Jesus cleanses the impure woman and raises the dead girl to life. As Holy One purity flowed from Him to the defiled persons, so that they could be cleansed without Him being polluted. These acts of Jesus form part of the coming of the Kingdom of heaven. By accepting Jesus as their saviour, the Matthean community shares the benefits of his purifying power. Their purity is no longer dependent on external purity regulations, but on the cleansing power of Jesus, the Holy One.

The Word as norm, the implication of oracle in 1 Peter 4:11 In 1 Peter the author uses the rare oracular word λόγια followed by the added θeοῦ to refer to the collective oracles of God, his revealed words. For all practical purposes: sacred Scripture. He suggests that these divine oracles should set the standard for all Christian speech and proclamation. The seriousness of these words is reinforced by an eschatological setting that emphasizes God as the final judge of a temporal world that is drawing to its close. The revelatory character that is inherent to λόγια and its divine origin is reinforced by θeοῦ. In the mind of 1 Peter it is the reality of revelation from above that Christians draw from and against which all human speech and proclamation should be measured, particularly in the Church.
在《彼得前书》4:11中，作者使用了罕见的神谕词λ ο για，后面加上θ ο ο ο来指代神的集体神谕，即他启示的话语。为了所有实际目的:圣经。他建议这些神圣的预言应该为所有基督教的演讲和宣言设定标准。这些话的严肃性被末世论的背景所强化，强调上帝是即将结束的世俗世界的最终审判者。λ για及其神圣起源所固有的启示性特征被θ ο ο所加强。在彼得前书的思想中，基督徒从天上的启示中汲取教训，并与之相对，所有人类的言语和宣言都应该加以衡量，尤其是在教会中。

Constancy and change in God’s plan of salvation Our everyday experience is well acquainted with the reality of constancy and change. Persistence over time (continuity) is normally accompanied by an awareness of change (discontinuity). This article wants to highlight the underlying ontological issues and distinctions required to gain a better understanding of the familiar term identity . In order to achieve this goal the idea of identity is related to the nature of an entity and its properties. Plato’s account of identity and change paved the way for an enduring philosophical wrestling with this problem. In the Dooyeweerd tradition, acknowledging the more-than-functional and multi-functional nature of the identity of an entity helps us to understand the distinction between conceptual knowledge and concept-transcending knowledge.

The role that the traditional Afrikaner churches played together with their way of practicing theology during the years of struggle, contributed to the fact that a large part of the Afrikaner community, which are mostly Christians, currently find themselves in an identity crisis. The triangular Afrikaner identity framework collapsed when it was declared false, hypocritical and sectarian, not only by the international community but also by those who helped to build this identity from inside. Unable to recover from this onslaught on their identity during the crucial years of transformation, the majority of the Afrikaner community is still struggling to give new meaning and content to their identity framework. Cognitive dissonance can help to identify the issues that need to be redressed. Refocusing on the valuable and sustainable content that should constitute the anchors of the Afrikaner identity frame, this group can implement its Christian calling to bring positive change to South Africa.

The General Synod of 2007 and the reformed identity of the Dutch Reformed Church. Apparent dissension on core ecclesiastical issues prompted the General Synod of the Dutch Reformed Church of 2007 to take decisions on the reformed identity of this church. A study by one of its commissions on the subject was accepted. In this study, matters such as salvation through grace, faith, Scripture and Christ alone (the so-called 4 solas); the importance of the work of the Holy Spirit, the content of the reformed confessions and a distinction between church and kingdom, are explained. The Synod also accepted that the solas should be reinterpreted in each period of time. Church unity does not imply that members should think or behave in the same way in all facets church life.

This paper represents an edited version of the authors’ STIAS lecture at the Stellenbosch University in 2014. It deals with the global human rights discourse, as the integrity of human persons all around the world is at stake, showing the necessity and the universality of human rights. Therefore the author explores two basic kinds of attitudes towards human rights, namely 1) forms of human rights optimism – e.g. the argument that globalisation as such leads to a universal acknowledgement of them – and 2) variants of human rights scepticism, in which the author sees those rights practically disregarded, the “Western” concept challenged, and a human rights exceptionalism spreading. Subsequently he asks for what kind of universality of human rights we may argue and how cosmopolitan ethics may support this universality.
