RESPONSE: A BIBLICAL PLEA FOR GOD'S HOLY PEOPLE TO EMBRACE A LESS PERFECT PERFECTION

Mauricio Constantino Ricaldi

Description / Abstract

Personally, I think it is a text that one has to go through slowly, appreciating the notes and savor ing those ideas that at first impulse could seem intense. I consider it an unmissable text because of its constant effort to approach our doctrinal heritage from its community dimension. As one who weaves a cord of love, we see him enduring all theology from the perfect bond, so that our grievous imperfections can be covered from love. Recalling Eugene Lowry on identity ( p. 37) he states that, “only when I find myself loved by someone else, can I really discover who I am” (p. One could add, “when someone else loves me, even if it is imperfect.Therefore, one can speak of recovering identity, which Fringer pointed out as lost because of sin.
