Description
For centuries, Christianity has struggled to reconcile its teachings with the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals. This has led to widespread spiritual, emotional and physical abuse and violence against LGBT people.
A new approach is needed, one that redefines sin and grace in light of Jesus Christ's teachings. In this book, Patrick S. Cheng proposes a Christological model, drawing on the theologies of Irenaeus, Bonaventure and Barth. He argues that traditional notions of sin and grace need to be re-examined in order to better understand God's love for all people.
This book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to make sense of Christian doctrine in the 21st century. It offers a fresh perspective on a complex issue, one that has urgent implications for the lives of LGBT individuals and their communities.
