Theology

What are the available jobs in Theology?

I’m currently undertaking a masters in Christian Theology and am wondering what the job market and my job prospects are like in the field of theology, either in the UK or the US.

I currently hold a LLB Law degree (Hons) and would not mind combining the two areas if possible.

Any advise in the right direction will be greatly appreciated.

Remain Blessed.

You are unlimited. You can go into counseling, government, or just about anything you can think about. There are several positions in Churches and faith based organizations. I used to work for the American Bible Society. Just know that the money is not great and the hours are long.

What is the name of the area of Christian theology that addresses this quote?

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?"

-Epicurus.

I know the arguments for and against this point of view, but i am curious about the name of the area of theology. Thanks!

Theodicy.

Jehovah Witness, when Jesus came back in 1914 spiritually according to the Jehovah witness theology?

Can you explain to me what happened, why he came back spiritually in 1914 what happened and what you believes happens next. I am just trying to understand your beliefs and theology a bit more.

Thank you for your replies.

This outta be redundant. They will explain to you what they are programmed to by their cult leaders, the Governing Body (guberning buddies) who are the "Faithful and Discreet Slave Class", one in the same. If you really sit back and think about it all and how it originated by Charles Taze Russell off of spiritism, you can truly feel sorry for these people because they didn’t do their homework first just like I didn’t before getting baptized (I am out now), to find out exactly how the religion got started; HOW LUDACRIS IT ALL REALLY IS.

They only know what others including some elders who don’t even know the truth, have told them and how they’ve been programmed to think.

They teach that only 144,000 people in the WHOLE world, out of the 7.2 Billion people that exist in the earth today, are going to heaven and that these ones are only of the Jehovah’s Witlessness, the annointed ones, the faithful and discreet slave class, the smaller flock with the seal of the lamb on their foreheads.

I guess I really feel stupid now for believing in their bull for so many years though many things did not make sense.

They are taught and believe that Jesus threw all of the demons including Satan out of heaven down here to the earth in 1914 and that marked the "last days of this wicked system of things", and that also marked the timeframe when the 144,000 remnant began to number, and that almost all of them are dead now, and when the last one dies or is near death that Armageddon will be here.

That’s insane beings how they marked Armageddon in 1874, 1914, 1916, 1925, 1975, and there was another year date, possibly more that I missed. If "Only the Father knows of that appointed date and time", why would Russell, then Rutherford, then other white men running this "BUSINESS WITH LAWYERS AND BUSINESSMEN SERVING AS THE GOVERNING BODY" impose exact years when Armageddon would be here? Then they have to change that when it doesn’t happen. They always change up when something does not add up; to keep the people interested and duped… many are leaving; many do stay.

That’s what a cult does… mind control and outrageousness… nothing really wholly truthful from God, but a bunch of hocus pocus. So much brainwashing going on and very truly good-hearted people join because they want to belong to "the one and only true religion" but this is not it. I feel sorry for some of the people who are duped, well I was for many years. I’m still recovering. It gets better every few months, but I feel so duped and betrayed.

It’s, the Watchtower Society, is plain and simply, a business — and did you know until 2005 or 2006 they were once part of (belonged) to the United Nations? This is a government as we know made up of all the worldly governments that they so preach against every Sunday or Tuesday pretty much during their Watchtower and Service Meetings, and their Kingdom Ministry Schools. They preach against government but yet they belonged to it?? This can be verified by doing a search on the New York State Business (Secretary of State) Records. You can go into the state office or do your own search online.

It’s all there and one thing I didn’t do before I got baptized as a Witless is happily tells lies. I still work very hard to be an honest person. Everything I have written here is the truth and can be verified, and I have experienced much more hypocrisy and dishonesty within this cult. So sad.. so sad.

What Are Some of the Best Graduate Divinity/Theology Schools?

I am interested in possibly pursuing a Masters in Divinity / Theology / Religious Studies and I was wondering if anyone had any information on which graduate schools excel in these programs. I would especially like to know about schools that offer Islamic studies programs in addition to traditional Judeo-Christian programs. Thanks for your help.

Bob Jones University, my grandfather who was a missionary went there, as well as most of my mother’s side of the family.

Taylor University is also good, a lot of my family’s friends went their.

I don’t know to much personally as I am not a theology major, but that’s my family’s take.

If I major in Theology can I become a lawyer?

If I major in theology can I go to law school, will it look bad? Also what other jobs that don’t involve clergy work can a theology get and still get paid well? I really wanna major in Theology and do law or business. Also could i get into business school with a theology undergraduate degree? Thank you anyone who can help.

This isn’t totally on-target, but my son is majoring in philosophy with a plan to go on to law school. He has been told that this is a perfect undergraduate degree for an attorney, because it gives a broad background and teaches one HOW to think, as opposed to other majors, which just teach one facts about a particular major. I would think the same would be true for theology.

You should be able to get into business school with any major. Congratulations on being so broad-minded, and good luck on your future career.

Has Billy Graham’s theology changed to something closer to Universalism in recent years?

Early in his career he clearly quoted scriptures about Jesus being the only way to God. But I saw his interview with Robert Schuller where Graham said that people only needed an "awareness" of needing something. Was this just a fluke of a poorly worded answer or has Graham changed his theology? He seemed to say something similarly universalist on Larry King Live.

What do you think? Has Graham’s theology changed greatly over time?

I have a lot of respect for him but I think you have some truth in your assumption. I know he believes in grace and mercy and I think he believes in literal truth of the Bible. I heard some links even to Jehovah’s Witnesses’ type of teaching about paradise but I have never seen black on white to make an informed opinion. I understand Billy believes in Trinity

What is Theology and why many Christians gets deeply into it while other Christians do not case about it?

I personally am interested in Theology which only deepens understanding of God’s word and build more faith.

The one who is not into Theology, how do you get to understand and learn about God ?

Theology is just a name for study of scripture.(any kind)

Bible study is a higher aim. As Jesus said, John 17:3 " This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ"
