Abstract

The German Christians (Deutsche Christen) were a factional group within the German Evangelical Church who incorporated völkisch and National Socialist ideology into theology and Church life. Throughout the 1930s until the close of the Second World War, German Christian leaders would express a robust theological agenda in a plethora of monographs, policy statements, and speeches. Much of this theology has a strongly Christological emphasis, especially as this concerned the crafting of Germanic Jesus. Accompanying this was a frequent evocation of the “Spirit” as a way of imbuing the National Socialist revolution with religious significance. The following article traces such uses of Spirit language within German Christian proclamation and explores how this had distinct implications for the Christian doctrine of the Holy Spirit.
“精神”在德国基督教神学和《人民遗嘱》中的作用
德国基督徒(Deutsche Christen)是德国福音派教会中的一个派别,他们将völkisch和国家社会主义意识形态纳入神学和教会生活。从20世纪30年代到第二次世界大战结束,德国基督教领袖在大量的专著、政策声明和演讲中表达了一种强有力的神学议程。这种神学有一个强烈的基督强调,特别是当它涉及到日耳曼人耶稣的工艺。与此同时,人们频繁地唤起“精神”,将其作为一种赋予国家社会主义革命宗教意义的方式。下面的文章追溯了德国基督教宣言中圣灵语言的使用,并探讨了这对基督教关于圣灵的教义有何不同的影响。
