Theological Quotes - Page 4

• Those are big challenges in our age, not just how we live as co-citizens in societies with people of different faiths and different cultures - I mean, that's a big challenge itself - but how we think about all that as Christians, or as Jews, or as Muslims, or as Hindus. How do we think about the religious other? There's a theological dimension as well as a civic dimension to our pluralism.

• I suspect that relatively few people will sit down and read 1250 pages [ of The Enduring Authority of the Christian Scriptures.] all the way through from cover to cover. There may be some, but not everybody. But there are many, many, many different Christian, theological, pastoral, specialisms that are covered by one section or another of the book and this will become, therefore, a resource volume for many people.

• You get into theological education and you're busy marking papers and getting into administration in raising funds and doing all the things that are part of life, but here we were talking about important theological, historical, gospel related, biblically centered things hour after hour after hour.

• Abortion is not a theological problem, it is a human problem, it is a medical problem. You kill one person to save another, in the best case scenario. Or to live comfortably, no? It's against the Hippocratic oaths doctors must take.

• En este caso [el Premio Carlomagno], no digo que (me) obligaran, sino que me convenció la santa y teológica cabezonería del cardenal [Walter] Kasper, porque fue elegido, elegido por Aquisgrán para convencerme. Y dije que sí, pero en el Vaticano. Y dije que lo ofrezco por Europa, como una co-decoración para Europa, un premio para que Europa haga lo que yo deseé en Estrasburgo; que deje de ser la "abuela Europa" y se convierta en la "madre Europa".

• We hear a lot about theological justifications for the conflicts, but very little about the scientific evidence, which in no way supports them. The time period in which Moses was leading his people out of Egypt, into the Promised Land, the Promised Land was Egypt. We know that. Archaeological records are very clear. The Egyptians were avid bureaucrats even in those days and kept very scrupulous records. I think it's important for us to realize this conflict is built on a legend. It has no scientific support.

• Me interesaba la cuestión del poder de las organizaciones religiosas para influir negativamente en las políticas públicas. Cuando estaba en la universidad, y descubrí en aquella época que la Iglesia católica lo controlaba todo en las comunidades, incluso en lugares progresistas como New York, un compañero de piso mío no podía abortar con su novia, ni siquiera en lugares como New York. Lo que aprendí en aquel momento fue la extraordinaria influencia que pueden tener las organizaciones religiosas para imponer sus puntos de vista teológicos a los demás. Y me pareció exasperante y peligroso.

• Jesus clearly believed in the reality of Satan and other principalities and powers. Now, I have very compelling historical, philosophical, and existential reasons for concluding that Jesus is Lord, and if I confess him to be Lord, I don't see how I can consider myself in a position to ever correct his theology, especially about such a foundational theological matter!

• Definitivamente disfruto con el trabajo litúrgico y coral de los siglos XV y XVI, pero toco en iglesias con un poco de inquietud, y no es algo que disfrute porque hay todos estos problemas. Da a entender que formas parte del aparato teológico, como para los ateos o algo así, y eso no me gusta. Me gusta jugar con la forma, habitar los tropos de la música religiosa sin esa promesa de ángeles al final. Puede ser incómodo, ¿sabes?

• Formal theological teaching in Africa is deeply rooted in the Western missionary movement . However, in practice, the church wrestles with how to bring theology to bear on the realities it faces in the context.

• In conversations and visits with friends from Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe I am often struck by the gaps in our Western theological approaches. The most common texts used in evangelical schools have been written in the US, UK, and Australia. However, they miss some fundamental contextual issues.

• The difficulty in today's world is our technology and science has outrun our theological advances. The reason for that is in technology and science, we have had the courage to ask the single question that theology has been afraid to ask: "Is it possible that there's something I don't know about this, the knowing of which would change everything?"

• A lo largo de los años, mis libros han recibido mucha más credibilidad de la que deberían. No creo que la gente deba tomárselos tan en serio. No son un tratado teológico; nunca pretendieron serlo. A veces me encuentro en situaciones incómodas porque la gente cree que soy una gran autoridad en guerra espiritual, pero no lo soy. Nunca lo he sido.

• Probably one of the strongest movements of the Holy Spirit is in the Roman Catholic Church, so there's not a huge theological difference between the official teaching of the Catholic Church and the Anglican Church.

• That's about 90 percent of my theological life - radical self-care. Put your own oxygen mask on first. I watch the self-talk that goes through my mind, and if I am being critical with myself, I shake myself out of it.

• Los estadounidenses son un "pueblo casi elegido", con lo que se quiere sugerir que existen claros paralelismos, literales, teológicos y de todo tipo, entre la historia estadounidense y la historia de Israel en el Antiguo Testamento, y luego la historia más amplia de la Iglesia cristiana. Está bien reconocer los paralelismos. Está bien invocarlos. Pero hay que mantener ese "casi" delante del "elegidos". No se puede llegar hasta el final y decir: "América es Israel, América es la Iglesia". Ahí es donde creo que el patriotismo se convierte en lo que yo llamo la herejía del nacionalismo.

• Some people say What's the use of the term if it has to be so fully documented and constrained and footnoted and all the rest. My response to that is: there is no theological word that does not have to be similarly footnoted and constrained: justification, spirit, sanctification etc. Any term can be distorted or domesticated or fly off the handle because of another alien philosophical structure that's imposed on the text and so on. Inerrancy is no different from what we find in every other theologically loaded word.

• When we unravel the theological tomes of the ages, the makeup of God becomes quite clear.  God is a human being without human limitations who is read into the heavens.  We disguised this process by suggesting that the reason God was so much like a human being was that the human beings were in fact created in God's image.  However, we now recognize that if was the other way around.  The God of theism came into being as a human creation.  As such, this God, too, was mortal and is now dying.

• Protestantism, of course, is much more explicitly divided into different traditions - the Pentecostals, the Anglicans. But there is the main tradition of Protestantism that comes out of the Reformation and that produced people like Kant and Hegel and so on, who are not normally thought of as being people writing in a theological tradition, although Hegel, of course, wrote theology his whole life.

• I'm not sure how far Derrida's later 'theological' interests are really rooted in post-structuralism or whether they don't rather reflect a kind of Kantian-Marxist trajectory - with a French twist on the centrality of liberty, equality and fraternity (cf. Politics of Friendship). Not to mention the role of Levinas and, behind Levinas, Judaism's twinning of eschatology and the call for justice.

• Upon the present theological computation, ten souls must be lost for one that is saved. At which rate of reckoning, heaven can raise but its cohorts while hell commands its legions. From which sad account it would appear, that, though our Saviour had conquered death by the resurrection, he had not yet been able to overcome sin by the redemption.
