Every generation must proclaim the gospel in its own terms. It is foolish to withhold belief from the creeds of another generation simply because we cannot use their language today. But it is just as foolish to assent to all the creeds together, as if orthodoxy were like some cafeteria where you are obliged to eat something of everything... The New Testament contributors were courageous enough to be one-sided. They made their choice, and preached the message in terms their hearers could grasp, opposing clearly the special dangers of their time and place. Must our younger generation (or to take a quite different example, the Japanese people) first be converted to a Hebrew or Greek way of thinking in order to be able to receive the gospel? Or may we, without denying the old creeds, proclaim the same truth in the West, perhaps in terms of the meaning of God's acts for our existence, and in Japan, perhaps in quite different terms?'</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Eduard Schweizer, Zwingli Verlag Zürich</note> <subject> <topic>Jesus Christ</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Apostles</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Bible - New Testament - Criticism, interpretation, etc</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">232</classification> <classification authority="ddc">S413-E21</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0334009340</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14908/61vqe22fadl-sy522.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14908/61vqe22fadl-sy522.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071422.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
