Las noticias globales de hoy continúan incitando a los seguidores de Jesús a estudiar sus Biblias para comprender los conflictos que arrasan entre la iglesia y sus críticos, entre Israel y sus vecinos, de hecho, entre Israel y el resto del mundo.¿Qué tan bien conoce la historia de las relaciones entre Israel y Palestina? ¿Existe una solución a esta lucha aparentemente interminable por la tierra, por la paz y por la supervivencia?El Dr. Willem J. Ouweneel es un experto en la historia de este conflicto. Más que eso, con una lente centrada en la Biblia, examina los malentendidos y engaños generalizados que se utilizan con fines propagandísticos y para hacer que la gente elija un bando.Con veinte tesis o proposiciones, el Dr. Ouweneel despeja la niebla de información errónea para que podamos ver (¡y orar!) con claridad mientras esperamos el regreso del Mesías. ¡Lea esto, infórmese y ore fervientemente!

For this we say to you by the word of the Lord,that we who are alive,who remain behind until the coming of the Lord,will by no means precede those who have fallen asleep,because the Lord himself will descend from heavenwith a cry of command,with the voice of an archangel,and with the trumpet of God,and the dead in Christ will rise first.Then we who are alive, who remain behind,will be caught up in the clouds together with themto meet the Lord in the air.And so we will be forever with the Lord.- 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17 Und nach dem Tod da werd ich seinBei Christo meinem Herren.And after death, I will bewith Christ, my Lord.- Der Herr ist mein getreuer Hirt[The Lord Is My Faithful Shepherd]Bach cantata BWV 112

"Highly esteemed Mr. Dooyeweerd: yours is the great merit to have seen that today we can no longer philosophize, as was still possible in the so-called modern era, without answering the question - or at least raising it - in what way philosophy and Christianity relate to each other. Today we know all too well that all philosophizing takes place against the background of a culture that in essential respects is determined by its religion, even in its anti-religious voices and moods or in its seemingly indifferent discussions and argumentation. The period in which philosophy and religion marched separately (or claimed that they could and should do so) is gone."Richard Kroner, Professor of Philosophy, University of Kiel

Special scientists have two options (but just one choice):(i) either they give an account of the philosophical presuppositions with which they work - in which case they operate with a philosophical view of reality, or (ii) implicitly (and uncritically) proceed from one or another philosophical view of reality - in which case they are the victims of a philosophical view (page 59)."...Precisely because it is impossible to dispense with a philosophy of nature, even present natural science adopts a philosophy of nature. But since it has censored and removed this philosophy at a conscious level, very often reduces itself to using an implicit one, that results from scattered items, is usually unreflected and, practically, is that which was contained in the science of past times but is now insufficient" (Agazzi, 2001:11)."We should have philosophers trained as philosophers, as rigorously as possible, and at the same time audacious philosophers who cross the borders and discover new connections, new fields, not only interdisciplinary researches but themes that are not even interdisciplinary" (Derrida, 1997:7)."Philosophical reflection must begin with the analysis of concepts we use; for these provide the frame of reference and determine the direction our inquiry will take" (Von Bertalanffy, 1966:116).

Faith, Life and Theology presents a significantly innovative approach to the broad spectrum of questions normally attached to the issue of "What Is It That Constitutes The Nature Of Theology." Rather than pursuing the highly speculative approaches endemic to Scholasticism, or the biblicistic emphasis on the Scriptures as a textbook on theology, Vander Stelt focuses on what is actually accessible to real, empirical, human study: namely, the phenomenon of faith as it comes to expression in human life in every age, in response to God''s self-disclosure to humankind in Word revelation and in Christ.

In his momentous and historic address on occasion of the opening of the ICS (Institute for Christian Studies), H. Evan Runner (1916-2002) addresses the cultural crisis of his time - very much a crisis that we have not yet escaped today - and the need for an institution and a missional direction for God's people to counter the forces of evil, the antithesis, the lie of Satan and to advance a truly Christian philosophy of life that is untainted by the pollution of our culture's pagan thoughts and unmistakably pure in its fidelity to Scripture. May Runner's words inspire the generations to come to take up arms and to fight the good fight of faith, a far-reaching comprehensive faith.

Con la edición de este primer volumen de la magna obra Una Nueva Crítica del Pensamiento Teórico del gran pensador neerlandés Herman Dooyeweerd, Paidea Press tiene el honor de iniciar la colección Obras de Dooyeweerd, la cual se propone publicar sus obras principales traducidas a la lengua de Cervantes. La meta inicial es publicar los restantes tres volúmenes de la Nueva Crítica, pero hay otras obras de gran importancia, particularmente Reforma y escolástica en la filosofía, que también ameritan ser publicadas en español. De esta manera Paideia Press, la gran casa editorial reformada del Canadá, se propone fomentar el conocimiento de la filosofía de Dooyeweerd entre los lectores de habla hispana de España y de las Américas. Ello redundará en el enriquecimiento de la cultura filosófica de los países hispánicos y en el avance de la reforma de la filosofía en los mismos, en sujeción al mandato de no conformarse a este siglo y de llevar cautivo todo pensamiento a la obediencia a Cristo.

This book wishes to tell the story of Eden, from the beginning-even before Genesis 2!-until the very end of the new heavens and the new earth. It will be a sad story with a happy ending. It is a drama, but not a tragedy, because tragedies always end in a tragical way.
