Black theology and apartheid theology are theologies making
use of an epitheton. The use to which the epitheton is put in
these theologies is of crucial importance, that is, they are
couplet theologies being used in a subjective genitive fashion.
The question is whether the couplet becomes a theology
of/concerning the epitheton or is it used in an objective
genitive fashion.
When the epitheton is used in the objective genitive sense it
of necessity has to generate an epistemological break in order
to distinguish it from orthodox theology. This in turn necessitates a conscientisation of a contextually predicated theology The theology becomes reductive. In this way an epitheton
theology forming part of a couplet becomes attenuated and diverges from orthodox theology in the construction of its theology. This can lead to the espousal of heretical teachings.
Conclusion:
The conclusion arrived at is
the objective genitive sense,
that an epitheton theology, in
for the purpose of advancing a
particular secular base or pseudo-theological base for Christian
society, once it has gained a life of its own, will lead
to heresy unless erroneous or sinful teachings are confessed
and repented of. / Philosophy, Practical and Systematic Theology / D. Th. (Systematic Theology)
