Description
Over the course of the past several years research by Finnish theologians on Martin Luther has come to the conclusion that Luther shared a significant reality with basic Orthodox theology. This reality emerged in theological discussions that the Finnish Lutheran theologians have had with the Russian Orthodox Church. As the Orthodox advanced their theosis theology the Lutherans began to sense that very similar ideas were present in Luther's theology. Carl Braaten and Robert Jenson have edited a book titled Union With Christ: The New Finnish Interpretation of Luther (Eerdmans, 1998) which presents articles by several of these Finnish theologians. Stimulated by these articles, I am fascinated to see the implications that theosis has for preaching. This new Finnish research on Luther points to some problems in Lutheran preaching and to some creative possibilities of thinking about preaching anew as we move into the future.
