Particularly, I propose a synthesis of recent work from Oliver Crisp on theosis with that of Sarah Coakley on sexual desire as an especially helpful way in which to conceive of our ever-deepening participation in God's love. Further, this synthesis uses contributions from Erin Dufault-Hunter on the intersections of sexual desire and ethics as a catalyst for its recommendations.","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":"76 1","pages":"139 - 152"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44028297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, both appeal to conceptions of divine transcendence and agency amidst what they understand to be the problematic naturalisation of theological discourse in modern Protestant theology, particularly within its liberal German traditions. The way they understand transcendence, however, and the doctrinal loci they choose to affect it, leads to different conceptualisations of the possibilities, scope and organisation of systematic theology. Where Webster (especially in his later work) seeks to prioritise God's immanent perfection and aseity through theology proper, Bonhoeffer instead emphasises God's freedom pro me within the person of Jesus Christ. These differences in first theological foundations have important consequences for the shape of theological method and doctrinal architecture within the practice of contemporary systematic theology.","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":"76 1","pages":"201 - 213"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44812117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In christologies influenced by Austin Farrer, and more distantly, by Nicholas of Cusa, the incommensurability of the infinite to the finite makes the idiom of paradox congenial, even necessary. Such demanding and unrelenting emphasis upon diastasis echoes a more ancient preoccupation with holiness in a fallen and unholy world. In Israel's scriptures, and in their lasting influence in the patristic era, the transcendent holiness of God threatens to prohibit the presence of the Holy One in the midst of unholy people. A record of this threat can be seen in the alien, fragmentary and unrecognisable Gospel portraits of the holy Christ to a sinful world. Yet the doctrine of the incarnation demands a divine presence to sinners and a sinful cosmos, a ‘making flesh’ as well as an ‘assuming flesh’. The concept and practice of sacrifice is proposed as a form of relation between deity and humanity such that the holy Christ can dwell and abide in an unholy world.","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":"76 1","pages":"1 - 9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42204753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is possible that some will appear in different forms in the future and possible, too, that we have some of them already in the six books that David Ford wrote alongside this one. But, like John’s Gospel, our eyes should be less on what was not written or what we wish had been written, and more on what will be written in the testimony of the church by those who – with the help of this commentary – will go on reading John and testifying to Jesus because of John. The legacy of the commentary will also be seen in further study of John and of the community in which this gospel was formed. For my part, the commentary made me want to know more about that community, which claimed to know well the authorial source of the Gospel, the one who knew what it was to be loved by Christ, and especially among them, Mary, whom that disciple took to his home. The style of John repeatedly reflecting on ‘grace upon grace’ seems like the way of the mother who, according to Luke, pondered so much in her heart. Her place among the witnesses and testifiers seems seldom considered among the commentators, and it is only just alluded to here. Other readers will have different questions raised in their minds by this book, and many others will have stirrings in their souls which will take them on new journeys of enquiry, theological and spiritual. All of that is to be welcomed as evidence of what Ford calls the ‘continual theological questioning’ (p. 209) provoked by John, the ‘potentially limitless’ (p. 213) capacity of John to generate reflection on the deepest realities of Christian faith. The test of those enquiries, and the writings and sermons they provoke, will be whether they maintain the same sort of discipline to search out the ‘deep plain sense’ (p. 389) of John to which this commentary commits itself, so that John’s readers and hearers, students and scholars, will find themselves saying of the one around whom this majestic text is constructed, ‘It is the Lord’, and will hear him say, ‘Follow me’ (John 21:7, 22).","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":"76 1","pages":"86 - 88"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46193835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article will focus on the fragment about Jesus’ baptism in Panarion, 30.13.7–8 to determine whether it depicts Jesus’ adoption to divine sonship. Although the text does not use adoptionist terminology and imagery, Jesus does acquire a new christological identity in the pericope when he is possessed by the spirit and metaphorically begotten by the deity. This should be relabelled as a possessionist Christology. However, Epiphanius wrongly interpreted the text through the lens of Cerinthus’ Christology, in which Jesus is only temporarily inhabited by the Christ aeon between his baptism and his crucifixion.","PeriodicalId":44026,"journal":{"name":"SCOTTISH JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY","volume":"76 1","pages":"153 - 163"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44377335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
