Acerca de este libro electrónico
The conception of “powers” and “principalities” in Paul’s
thought has been amply explored—but how did the powers “work” in the Pauline
community? Robert Ewusie Moses argues that Paul's conception of the powers is best
understood through examining the practices he advocates for the early
believers. In this detailed study, Moses shows that Paul believed certain
practices guarded believers from the dominion of the powers while others
exposed humans to the work of powers of darkness. Moses traces the distinct
function of “power-practices” in each of Paul’s letters and draws illuminating
comparisons with traditional African religious practices.
