Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Quests for Salvation in New Testament Times Many attempts have been made to present the salvation beliefs of the New Testament or of its individual writers through the medium of New Testament theologies or treatises dealing with the teachings of selected authors. The prevailing tendency, sometimes contrary to the expectations and desires of the investigators, has been to isolate the material under consideration or at least to relate it to its total environment only under stress of necessity. The assumption seems to lave been that sufficient data were available to enable one to reconstruct in terms of modern thought, or at least in terms intelligible to the present day, the doctrine used by the individual in question, on the basis of its being a more or less closed system evolved as such chiefly in the mind and experience of the one leader. Hence it was natural to seek to show that the teachings were logically consistent. Starting with such assumptions as these and actuated by a desire to use or test the results as normative, as correct, as authoritatve, theologians have not found it impossible to discover consistent, well-wrought systems of doctrine. But unfortunately there is a likelihood of gaps being bridged by the introduction of subjective data, in proportion as there is present an apologetic interest or a desire to establish a norm to which the ancient author corresponds, if indeed the norm is not found within his authoritative utterances. The method adopted in this study is intended to obviate some of the difficulties which repeatedly arise in the practice of starting with the material to be investigated as in any way self-explanatory. That is, the subject of New Testament soteriology can not be studied adequately by starting with the New Testament records as containing a closed system capable of being interpreted in the light of their own statements.
