Since the early days of Christianity a tension has existed between the authority of the Bible and the authority of the Church. This has been further heightened by the question of Bible translation: How does the Word stand firm and yet continue to speak to a changing Church?

Joseph Lienhard, a specialist in Early Christianity, examines the evolution of the Christian canon by casting this question against the life of the early Christians. Among the topics treated are the Christian use of Jewish Scriptures, the Catholic and Protestant Old Testaments, the emergence of the New Testament, the struggle for the right interpretation of the Scriptures, the problem of inspiration, and modern attempts to explain the Church's New Testament canon theologically. The book questions the use of historicist methods of interpretation and appeals to the Rule of Faith as the right norm for interpreting the Scriptures in the Church.

Joseph T. Lienhard, SJ, earned his doctorate at the University of Freiburg im Breisgau (Germany) with two dissertations on Paulinus of Nola and Marcellus of Ancyra. His work is in patristics. He taught at Marquette University from 1975 to 1990, and since 1990 has been at Fordham University, where he is also chair of the department of theology. He has published Ministry in the Message of the Fathers of the Church series and other titles.

Armor All Car Headlight Cleaner Wipes – Quick & Easy Clarity
The Armor All Car Headlight Cleaner Wipes are a convenient and effective solution for restoring foggy, yellowed, or hazy headlights without the need for complicated kits. These pre-moistened wipes make it super easy to wipe away oxidation and dirt, improving visibility and enhancing the car’s overall appearance. ✅ Pros: Quick & Easy to Use: No need for additional tools or sanding. Restores Clarity: Helps reduce haze and oxidation buildup. Convenient Packaging: Portable and easy to store in the car. No Harsh Chemicals or Strong Odors. ⚠️ Cons: May Require Multiple Uses for Heavily Oxidized Headlights. Not a Permanent Fix: Works best for maintenance but may not fully restore very cloudy headlights. Can Leave a Slight Residue: Needs buffing for the best shine. Final Verdict: For a quick fix and easy maintenance, the Armor All Headlight Cleaner Wipes are a great go-to option. They work well for light oxidation and keeping headlights clear, but for severely foggy lights, a full restoration kit may be needed. Great for touch-ups and convenience

Foggy foggy to crystal clear in less than an hour!!! True story!
Pleasantly surprised at a)how easy this kit was to use, b) the results of the kit and I highly recommend this kit. Took my headlights from completely foggy to crystal clear as if they were brand new. Only took about 30 minutes with a little elbow grease. Great product at a great price!

If you buy it, buy 6 or 7,8 boxes
This is a great product! If you buy 6 to 7 kits! Making it very expensive!!! Once you get started, you can’t stop without buying more kits. It gets worse and worse using any other product. It last a good 8 to 12 month, if you use 7, 8, or 9 kits. It will work the crap out of you, wiping and wiping, scrubbing! Don’t even get started with it, they give you enough of the good stuff to work on a 2 year old car, showing zero signs of oxidation. I’m an Armor All fan! Armor All has the best interior cleaner, a good protectant, & many other good products.. but this product has cost me money and a lot of time. Not happy Armor All.

wow, ahead of the rest, easy to use
Style: Headlight Restore & Repel Kit
wow, i have used a lot of products for my cloudy headlight lens. this was the easiest and the best so far. on a dry clean headlight, open the foil envelope and get the wipe out, wipe the cloudy headlight and it really gets the job done, a yellow stain builds up on the wipe. one wipe for each headlight. wipe dry with microfiber, then spray the sealant and let it sit, just wipe any excess run off on the car body. poof, done! looks good. says it can last up to 18 months. not sure about that, but i will take what i have now. go nu finish, another solid product.
