3 unusual facts about Death of God theology


Death of God theology

Most notably, Blake refused to view the crucifixion of Jesus as a simple bodily death, and rather, saw in this event a kenosis, a self-emptying of God.

Van Buren and Hamilton offered secular people the option of Jesus as the model human who acted in love.

This negation is subsequently itself negated at the Crucifixion of Jesus, resulting in the emergence of the Holy Spirit, God as both concrete (the church) and absolute (spiritual community).
