	Boston Collaborative Encyclopedia of Western Theology: Paul Tillich
		Tillich was born on August 20, 1886 in Starzeddel, a province of Brandenburg, Germany.
		Tillich believes that such an ontological question of being-itself springs from the "shock of nonbeing." Nonbeing is experienced as the threat to being, which generates a sense of finitude.
		Tillich refers to the New Testament concept to describe this moment as the "fulfillment of time" as the words used by "Jesus and John the Baptist when they announced the fulfillment of time with respect to the Kingdom of God, which is ‘at hand" (369).

	PAUL TILLICH - Le courage d'être
		Selon Paul Tillich, pour en venir à comprendre le courage, il faut au préalable comprendre l'homme et son monde, ses structures et ses malheurs.
		Selon Paul Tillich, ce n'est pas une découverte récente de la psychanalyse : les Stoïciens, lorsqu'ils magnifiaient la raison, savaient déjà que l'angoisse ne peut être dépassée que par ce pouvoir de la raison, de la raison universelle qui chez le sage l'emporte sur les désirs et les craintes.
		Tillich explique que du moment que chaque jour, un peu de notre vie nous est enlevé, du moment que nous sommes en train de mourir chaque jour, l'heure finale où nous cesserons d'exister ne nous apportera pas par elle-même la mort, elle ne fera qu'achever le processus mortel.

	Paul Tillich (1886-1965) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Paul Tillich has become known as the 'Apostle to the Intellectuals' because his intellectual quest was to communicate the Christian faith to 'humanistically educated sceptics'
		Tillich's studies were interrupted by the events of World War 1 in which he served as a chaplain where his encounters with mass death and destruction was the cause of two nervous breakdowns and a crisis of faith that transformed his view of God.
		Tillich presents a radically transcendent view of God which in fairness he attempts to balance with an immanent understanding of God as the Ground of Being (and the Ground of Meaning) but fails to do so.

	Paul Tillich’s Gift of Understanding
		Tillich’s Christ, as presented in his sermons and formal theologies, was one who could ask questions, whose death was real and whose resurrection (however understood) could bring with it the power of life over death.
		Tillich was able to use the slippery language of humans to convey the vision of a God who brings new things out of old.
		Tillich’s view that the church is a spiritual community in which the Spiritual Presence is living and communicated was powerful to me at a time when the sickness of the institutional church, and particularly of my own denomination, was a sickness near to death.

	Paul Tillich Major Works - Christianbook.com
		Tillich developed such seminal concepts as "the Protestant principle," "theology of culture," "religion as ultimate concern," "method of correlation," "symbols of faith," "sin as estrangement," and "living on the boundary." 914 pages total, three softcovers.
		Here also Tillich defines his thought in relation to philosophy and the Bible and sets forth his famous doctrine of God as the "Ground of Being." Thus God is understood not as a being existing beside other beings, but as being-itself or the power of being in everything.
		In this volume, the third and the last, Paul Tillich sets forth his ideas of the meaning of human life, the doctrine of the spirit and the church, the trinitarian symbols, the relation of history to the Kingdom of God, and the eschatalogical symbols.

	Existential Primer: Paul Tillich

	Paul Tillich's Dynamics of Faith
		Tillich says that faith is certain, insofar as it is an experience of the sacred, but that it is uncertain, insofar as it brings finite beings into relation with an infinite reality.
		Tillich says that reason is a precondition for faith, and that faith is an act in which reason ecstatically transcends itself.
		Tillich concludes that the triumphant aspect of the dynamics of faith is that faith cannot be rejected or denied, unless another faith attempts to replace it.

	Paul Tillich -- Theism Rewritten for an Age of Science
		Paul Tillich was born on August 20,1886, in a Lutheran parish house in Starzeddel, Germany.
		Tillich reports that "all the great memories" of his life were interwoven with scenes from nature, with images of the landscape, with sea and soil, with the smell of the potato plant in autumn and the pine tree in spring.
		Tillich found, as he kept looking at the paintings, that he was doing theology; he saw that in the dimension of their greatest depth all art and, in fact, all life evokes a religious response.

	Theology Today - Vol 53, No. 4 - January 1997 - ARTICLE - Paul Tillich and the Millenialist Heritage
		Tillich's millenarian sympathy is immediately evident in his frequent positive references to the work of the visionary reformer Joachim of Fiore and in his consistent use of Fiore's "three stages" in the interpretation of historical and political realities.
		Tillich tells us explicitly that whenever in the course of history the prophetic Spirit arose in the churches, and they spoke of the "third stage," "the coming rule of Christ," or the "one-thousand year period," they were actually describing the experience of a kairos.
		Tillich's notion of kairos is a useful concept for preserving the passion and enthusiasm of millennial hope, while avoiding the pitfalls of prophetic literalism, the radicalism of misguided utopianism, and the pessimistic catastrophism of premillennial dispensationalism.

	Paul Tillich - Theopedia

		Tillich was, along with contemporary Karl Barth, considered by many to be one of the most influential Protestant theologians of the twentieth century.

		Tillich's theology is also significantly influenced by (as are the intellectual developments of which he was part) larger historical events such as the first and second world wars.
		Tillich introduces norms and the rational character of systematic theology - Tillich is in many ways writing for philosophers who have discounted the validity of theology in the modern world; by emphasising the aspects of reason and logic in his system, he carries more weight in that community.
		Paul Tillich's ~Systematic Theology~ is one of the most important theological works of the 20th century, and the theological system par excellence of liberal Protestant Christianity.

	Quodlibet Online Journal: Paul Tillich and the Ontological Argument - by Duane Olson (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Paul Tillich’s name is not ordinarily included in a list of thinkers who have made a significant contribution to the ontological argument. Those who find affinity with Tillich’s thought have tended to overlook what he says about the arguments for God’s existence, influenced perhaps by Tillich’s sometime statements about the improper nature of such arguments.
		Tillich is not entirely helpful in dealing with this challenge, since he gives no explicit critique of a necessary being. At one point, however, he gives a terse critique of the conception of God as “a necessary substance,” and it is clear he has the same concept in mind as a necessary being.
		Tillich’s comments on the Anselmian form of the argument are mostly critical. He faults Anselm for trying to prove the existence of a highest being, proposing to move from something known, an idea of God in the mind, to something unknown, the reality of God outside the mind.

	Paul Tillich -- The Courage To Be
		The power of being, Tillich relates, is not that of the ego or separate self, but absolute faith to the relation with the Ground of Being, the power of being and self-affirmation needed to have the courage to be in spite of the threat of nonbeing and subsequent fear and anxiety.
		Tillich first goes into the different meanings of courage, from Plato's spirit courageous element and that of the guardian strength segment of society, the aristocratic, with the conflict of the reasonable and the sensual to that of Aristotle's noble intent, asceticism and martyrdom.
		Tillich brings out there are three main types of anxiety: fate and death, guilt and condemnation, and emptiness and meaninglessness, that take on two forms: existential and pathological.

		Paul Tillich (1886-1965) was born in Germany, the son of a Lutheran pastor.
		However, Tillich always had the sense that this systematic theological and philosophical work was not an end in itself, but rather was a foundational task toward the greater Christian work, part of which is embodied most directly for most in the preaching and hearing of sermons and homilies.
		Tillich was profoundly influenced by his experiences in the first world war, where he served as a chaplain in the trench warfare.
