A Theology of the Imagination: Part III Capturing the Imagination as Jesus did

Christians today need to show the world that the Church has more to say about wonder-hunger than anyone else. We have a theology of the imagination that offers the active and imaginative life for which even the most committed atheists are really longing. The goal of these articles is to whet your taste buds for engaging in this imaginative work. Whether you teach a church full of folks or only your children, capturing your hearers’ imagination with God’s truth is a work worth giving your time and yourself to.

Millä lailla meitä tuomitaan? Kuinka Räsäsen ja Pohjolan tapaus paljastaa Suomen lainsäädännön ongelmallisuuden

Vuosisatojen ajan Suomen lakien perustana on ollut Jumalan moraalilaki. Nyt tuo perusta on murenemassa kovaa vauhtia, minkä myös Päivi Räsäsen saama tuomio homoseksuaalien solvaamisesta osoittaa. Kun lainsäädännön raamatullinen perusta korvataan subjektiivisella kokemusmaailmalla, on sillä mittavia vaikutuksia sekä yhteiskunnallisella että yksilöllisellä tasolla.

The Holiness of God

God, being holy, cannot simply deny his holiness and “just forgive” any of us. His love is holy and so is his mercy. He is just and acts according to righteous judgement, not looking away or ignoring sin and evil, as an ineffectual or corrupt lawgiver. And yet, the Bible states that God indeed passes over our sins... How can he do this without forsaking his holiness?

Guds helighet

Vad innebär det att Gud är helig? Hur kan en helig Gud förlåta synder utan att tumma på sin helighet och rättfärdighet?

Openness to the Gospel

In Denmark and Scandinavia there has also been an increase in church attendance in many places, particularly in churches with conservative biblical preaching, an emphasis understanding the Bible, living in Christian community, etc. In addition, there are many testimonies from young people—including on social media—where they talk about how they have started reading the Bible and how Jesus has transformed their lives.

Åbenhed for evangeliet

I Danmark og i Skandinavien har man også flere steder oplevet en del fremgang i hyppigheden af kirkegang, særligt i kirker med konservativ bibelsk forkyndelse - med vægtlægning på arbejde med bibelen, et levende kristent fællesskab mm. Desuden er der en del vidnesbyrd fra unge - bl.a. på de sociale medier - hvor de fortæller om, hvordan de er begyndt at læse i Bibelen, og at Jesus har forvandlet deres liv.
