RT @nick_routledge: @BremenBod Moltmann, authoritative on Xian messianism, not unrelatedly a huge fan of Congregation: "Theology is the business of all God’s people." Moses, of course, went further: "Would to God that all the Lord’s people were Prophets." A fresh start? Heschel: "Not to reject but surpass."

@nickripatrazone @poetinbabylon Where Xian theological sanction has effectively decried messianology as "the hobby of religious cranks" (Moltmann), perhaps it’s time to adventitiously ask, what does realized Christology mean, if not the Second Advent? Fingers and toes? Or the kingdom of peace in a new creation?
