- Title
Carrying out the Theological Task in a Baptistic Way.
- Authors
Parushev, Parush R.
- Abstract
This essay affirms James McClendon's claim that baptistic communities, of which the Baptists are a representation, constitute a distinguished form of Christian life with distinct hermeneutics of the biblical narrative guided by a particular vision--the baptistic vision. This vision provides necessary and sufficient scope for an authentic baptistic theology to take shape. The baptistic way of theologising is defined as communal, convictional, and contextual. The vector of theologising takes its direction from the lived-out or primary theology of the gathering, intentional, convictional community and points to scholarly theological discourse.
