Still, I was thinking in terms of the Jewish belief that there is one God who acts in history and who has entered into covenant with Israel for the sake of redeeming the worlds and bringing it back to worship the one true God in a life of justice and righteousness. But i think you are right, and it depends where we draw the lines of fundamental stories and beliefs. It was a sloppy comment to make and I thought so when I wrote it. But this does mean that I need to think out worldviews some more...<BR/><BR/>Thnx dudeEddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00236115781570052603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12345528.post-1125125442644355042005-08-27T18:50:00.000+12:002005-08-27T18:50:00.000+12:00For the gospel cannot be assimilated into any prio...<I>For the gospel cannot be assimilated into any prior worldview (unless of course it is a Jewish one, such as with the first Christians) because it brings with it an entire account of God, humanity, the world, and history.</I><BR/><BR/>I'm not entirely sure this is accurate. The gospel is not assimilated into the worldview of 1st century Jews, rather it confronts the fabric of their worldview and offers some ontological shifts in both conceptual understanding of YHWH [Christological Monotheism] as well as a complete reworking of praxis [abandonment of Torah in favour of Jesus' praxis].<BR/><BR/>thoughts?Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15155789202261126090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12345528.post-1125125148177135012005-08-27T18:45:00.000+12:002005-08-27T18:45:00.000+12:00But the Christian worldview is adopted because Jes...<B>But the Christian worldview is adopted because Jesus Christ bursts into our “worlds” and demands that we account for him.<BR/></B><BR/><BR/>Yeah!
