- Bishop Tom Wright reflects on the postmodern movement, setting it in an historical context. Citing both its insights and limitations, the Bishop ends his comments with this thought, "Post-modernity is about announcing the Doctrine of the Fall to arrogant modernity. But the Fall is never the last word. The task of the church today could be summed up as 'How do we now announce the Doctrine of Redemption?'"
Part of an interview by Dr. Tod Bolsinger at the Pastors Retreat of the Los Ranchos Presbytery held at the Serra Retreat Center in Malibu, CA. Bishop N.T. Wright is the Bishop of Durham in the Church of England.
Extraordinary... we need more voices like this.
A grasp of practical usage historical narrative from its infancy to the resurrection and down the slippery slope of the post modernist world.. what an exciting time to be a Christian...
brilliant and inspiring
thomstark =: His point, more accurately , is not that the resurrection of Jesus did not happen (just the contrary, he is a leading proponent that God raised Jesus from the dead); rather, it is that people of this period clearly understood that death was inevitable and final (no need for modern science to establish this). The fact of Jesus' resurrection from the dead was the introduction of glorius hope to people then, now and forever !
Someone needs to show this to JBP ASAP.
Did NT Wright just say 'aint'?
Im not sure . My memory is so short . But if so I would find that funny 😉
Just watched it agsin. Yes at the end he did 😉
That's me too. I consolidated my youtube accounts a little while ago.
I've read him. I haven't met him personally.
Yes, I'm really me. :)
The secrecy or openness of knowledge was not his point at all. Rather, like Gnosticism, the Enlightenment believed that their new knowledge empowered them to change things.
The Jewish idea of time is not as simple as all that. Time element, in Jewish prophecy, just goes right out the window.
You fail to account for the portrayal of actions as imminent in what one would call "redemptive history." Note the use of the round number 40 and its correlation with redemption. How long did the waters fall while Noah was in the ark? How long was Moses on the mountain? How long did Jesus fast?
Redemptive history, in Jewish thought, is unique and cannot be casually dismissed.
You probably couldn't get me his autograph?
How do I know you're really billybagbom? Anyway, click on my user profile page. Same headshot as on the Amazon page for my book.
Then who is this other guy who signs on as "thomstark"?
Nope. Sorry. I could forge it for you. I'm adept at that, since I'm not really Thom Stark.
Unless you appear before me instantly and autograph my copy of "The Human Faces of God" (available new at Amazon for $27.18 US, or wherever fine paperbacks are sold), I will in no wise believe. And bring David Bentley Hart with you.
Sorry. All narratives are suspect. For the sake of argument, let's agree that you are Thom Stark. Do you know David Bentley Hart?
Excuse me, sorry to butt in. Are really Thom Stark? Because I also think that Wright's book on the resurrection of Jesus also has way too many footnotes and over-thinks the whole thing too much.
Rats! I KNEW it!
I'm sorry that people are stupid, too. My life would be much better if we weren't.
Wow, Wright has absolutely no idea what Postmodernity is.
