A theological analysis of what sin would be in virtual realityNortjé, Johannes Andries 11 1900 (has links)
The genre affiliation is a postmodern study: Virtual Reality (VR) becomes a comprehensive
concept, in the face of modernism's illusion, when rhetoric validates all discourses. All is VR.
The study is in three sections with an overall introduction and conclusion: the first section
introduces VR in its postmodern setting, the second section establishes the postmodern
timeless/spaceless paradigm of HyperReality in which all Hermeneutics are being done from,
the last section draws the paradigm into the Creatio Ex Nihilio discourse of the Scriptures.
The proposed theological model is an intratextual theological model, however when
YAHWEH precedes language then all discourses become intratextually part of the Biblical
discourse. Human creativity is a metaphorical journey; the Fall was the outset of two
languages, one in the presence of YAHWEH, while the other one void of this presence led to
a nihilistic abstract constellation. Sin in VR is the unbiblical appropriation of this constellation. / Thesis (M.Th.)

Welt lieben : Perspektiven einer schöpfungstheologischen Weltanschauung für ökumenische Spiritualität / Loving the world : perspectives of a creation-theological worldview for ecumenical spiritualityRehm, Christian Gregor 11 1900 (has links)
German text / Gelebte Ökumene wird, als Zeichen christlicher Glaubwürdigkeit, in unserer postmodernen und postsäkularisierten Gesellschaft gefordert. Die dogmenorientierten Bemühungen zur Ökumene scheinen in die Krise geraten zu sein. Es bedarf es der Suche nach Grundlagen für ökumenische Spiritualität, für die sich der Schöpfungsglaube, als von den großen Konfessionen geteiltes Glaubensgut, anbietet. Um Schöpfungstheologie und -spiritualität als zusammengehörige Elemente wahrnehmen zu können, wird in dieser Dissertation das Weltanschauungsmodell Wrights verwendet, welches durch Waaijmans Aspekt der Umformung ergänzt wird. Konfessionell geprägte Schöpfungstheologien werden in den Kategorien Story und Antworten auf weltanschauliche Schlüsselfragen analysiert. Dies bildet die Basis für eine Synthese, im Sinne der Hermeneutik des differenzierten Konsenses, zu einer ökumenischen Schöpfungstheologie. Konfessionelle Schöpfungsspiritualitäten werden in den Kategorien Symbol und Praxis dargestellt und in einem emergent-synthetischen Entwurf, auf der Basis der ökumenischen Schöpfungstheologie, zu Perspektiven für ökumenische Schöpfungsspiritualität weiterverarbeitet.
Die so aufgezeigte schöpfungstheologisch-ökumenische Weltanschauung, bietet eine mögliche Grundlage für ökumenische Spiritualität. / Christian Spirituality, Church History & Missiology / M. Th. (Christian Spirituality)

The law in the theologies of Wingren and Reuther : a comparative studyHess, Nancy Anne Olson 11 1900 (has links)
This thesis is a comparative study of the concept and role of the law in the
theologies of Rosemary Radford Ruether and Gustaf Wingren. The analysis of
their theologies shows that Wingren uses the law as a formal theological
category and Ruether does not. The absence of the law in Ruether's theology
has implication for theological ethics.
For Wingren the law has two uses. The first use, the so called political use, is
that which compels and coerces ethical behavior in the human. The first use of
the law is used to insure that all humans receive the fullness of life that God
intends for all of creation. The second use of the law, the so called spiritual
use, accuses the human when he/she does not meet the demands of the law.
When the conscience is accused the human is prepared to hear the gospel. For
Wingren, the gospel is what gives the human a new will to live by freeing the
human from the burden and condemnation of the law. The law and the gospel
serve each other but have distinct functions. The law demands ethical behavior
and the gospel gives salvation. According to Wingren, the source of ethical
behavior is located in the doctrine of creation not in the doctrine of the
revelation of God through Jesus Christ; thus preserving the notion that the gift
of grace is not earned by good works but is given freely.
For Ruether, appropriate ethical behavior is revealed to humans through
paradigmatic individuals who denounce systems of oppression and announce
God's intent for creation, namely, liberation. Jesus is one such paradigmatic
individual who both denounces oppression and announces the kingdom of God.
Jesus both demands justice in relationships and offers liberation. The gospel
message of Jesus, in effect, collapses the law and the gospel into one entity.
The follower of Jesus hears that salvation is dependent upon appropriate
ethical behavior thereby nullifying the notion that grace is an unearned gift.
The thesis concludes with a constructive statement which develops a feminist
theology based on Wingren's concept of the law / Biblical and Ancient Studies / D. Th. (Systematic Theology)

Dogma-oriented attempts to establish ecumenical accord appear to be in a crisis. It is now necessary to search for a foundation of an ecumenical spirituality, and it seems that belief in creation is particularly suitable since it is shared by the established churches. In order to understand creation theology and spirituality as interdependent elements, this dissertation will apply Wright's worldview model, complemented by the aspect of transformation as identified by Waaijman. Denominational creation theologies will be analysed in the categories Story and Answers to Key Worldview Questions. This will provide the basis for a synthesis, in the sense of the hermeneutics of the differentiated consensus, for an ecumenical creation theology. Denominational creation spiritualities will be presented in the categories Symbol and Practice and developed in a step further, through an emergent synthesis related approach and on the basis of an ecumenical creation theology, to present perspectives for an ecumenical creation spirituality.
The thus described worldview based on creation and ecumenical theology offers a potential foundation for an ecumenical spirituality. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / M. Th. (Christian Spirituality)
