Your God, My God, Our God

Autor S Wesley Ariarajah
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2012
Theologian Wesley Ariarajah believes that authentic Christian faith in todays religiously plural world demands that we rethink central concepts of the Christian theological tradition. Ariarajahs work is based on the conviction that some of the basic doctrinal formulations about God, Sin, Christ, Salvation, and Mission can in fact be rethought for our day, helping us to affirm deeply the Christian faith while yet respecting other religious experiences in their distinctiveness. He traces the biblical roots and theological developments of these doctrines, evaluates their coherence, and proposes new constructive options for a Christian theology of religions. The volume proposes new orientations for doing theology and Theology of Religions in the context of religious plurality. It is intended to be a probing invitation to Christians to rethink Christian theology in the context of religious plurality

Recenzii

"Challenging, provocative, and thoughtful, Your God, My God, Our God is not afraid to confront a vitally important question for today how our increased awareness of religious plurality affects Christian theology itself. Readers may not agree with all of Ariarajahs answers, but they will discover in this exploration a draught of heady new wine which refreshes the spirit and encourages them to carry on with their own theological wrestling." - Clare Amos, Programme Executive, Interreligious Dialogue and Cooperation, World Council of Churches
No one has been better situated by experience and vocation to understand the change in the relation of Christianity and the religions than Wesley Ariarajah. And no one exceeds his generosity of spirit in interpreting the controversies that change arouses. Radical in its scope and humble in its spirit, this book distils the theological counsel of a pioneering thinker. Whether provoked to agreement or to argument, all of us who care for these questions will be the better for hearing the case he makes with the same open heart with which he offers it. - S. Mark Heim, Samuel Abbot Professor of Christian Theology, Andover Newton Theological School
In this tightly argued and lucidly written little book, Wesley Ariarajah offers a staunch response to those academics who recently have been calling for a moratorium on the theology of religions. He makes clear that the urgency of engaging followers of other religious traditions provides the opportunity to review, reform, and re-appropriate ones own. In both college classrooms and parish discussion groups, this is a book that will engage and inspire. - Paul F. Knitter, Paul Tillich Professor of Theology, World Religions, and Culture, Union Theological Seminary, New York
