The Gospel According to Jesus Part 3: Saved from What?
Manage episode 422758230 series 2291755
If we ground the meaning of Jesus' death and resurrection in the life of Jesus, the story, history and context - what we find is an invitation to make sense of the meaning of language like sin and salvation through this story rather than as abstract or individualistic theological ideas. Rather than being saved from eternal punishment or torment, salvation in the story of Jesus is all about following in his way, entering into his vision of the kingdom of God, being embraced by God rather than held at a distance, turning from harm, abuse and violence and finding a God who enters into our pain and suffering and yet offers us new life.
