The Origin of the Gnostics - Dr. Robert M. Price & Dr. M. David Litwa

Описание: #MDavidLitwa

In this live stream, Drs. Price and Litwa team up for the first time ever to discuss the origin of Gnosticism. Does Gnosticism fit in the milieu of Marcion and or Plato? Or does it appear to be distinct from Marcion but similar to Marcions theological point of view? Want to know? Then don't miss the live stream!

Dr. David Litwa is a scholar of ancient Mediterranean religions with a focus on the New Testament and early Christianity. His current research question focuses on why some early Christian groups (so-called gnostic and Marcionites) came up with the idea of an evil creator. He has recently completed a project comparing ancient angelification and daimonification in dialogue with modern posthuman transformation.

Before joining Australian Catholic University, he taught at Virginia Tech, the College of William & Mary, and the University of Virginia (UVA). In 2012, he received a Ph.D. from the Religious Studies department at University of Virginia. Prior to that he received an Master of Divinity at Emory University and a Masters of Theology at Duke University. Currently he became a member of the Steering Committee of the Bible, Myth, and Myth Theory Group at the Society of Biblical Literature, as well as a member of the Society of New Testament Studies (SNTS).

Dr. Robert McNair Price received his Bachelors at the Montclair State University in 1976, he then went on to receive his Master of Theological Studies in the New Testament from the Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in 1978, and then he received his PhD in Systematic Theology in 1981 and another 1991 at Drew University. He also was a pastor of the First Baptist Church in Montclair, New Jersey. He also served as Professor of Religion at Mount Olive College. Dr. Price challenges the consensus on the dating of the Pauline Epistles, the authenticity of those Epistles and the historical Jesus. He rejects that Paul wrote the Pauline Epistles and he upholds the Mythicist position that Jesus likely did not exist as a historical figure.
