Examples

“HE’S [Joseph H. Yeakel] scared of the Jesus movement. “I’m scared when I think of Jesusology. The church has to move toward a Christology—on a God-and-man emphasis. I see the Jesus movement as a tidal wave. The Jesus movement can overemphasize Jesus the man.””

“Albert Schweitzer’s wry remark that the lives of Jesus produced in 19th century scholarship are so many portraits of the idealized hopes of the scholars may well be expanded to cover all of our Jesusologies and Christologies, and so it should be.”

“W. Norman Pittenger, David Griffin, and John B. Cobb have all formulated “process Christologies.” In point of fact, all three have only constructed Jesusologies that so naturalize the understanding of divine grace as to make Christology unthinkable.”
