Since I’ve been working to get out of a rut since September ‘08, I thought this was worth sharing for those who might also be in one…
“A weakness of an overemphasis on high Christology lies in the smug certainty and lethargy that it can breed as a result of interpreting beliefs as facts. Faith can deteriorate into a mere intellectual assent to the propositions of salvation. Also it promotes a narrow and privatistic view of salvation as simply getting to heaven after death.”
