Wiedergeburt? Erwägungen zur dogmatischen Revision eines diskreditierten Begriffs
Jahrgang 109 (2012) / Heft 1, S. 48-69 (22)
The once doctrinally popular notion of »palingenesis« has been largely discredited for its political preoccupation and its theological misuse by neo-conservative and evangelical »born again« Christians. The article seeks to reappropriate this discredited notion through an alternative theological language game which follows the biblical use of the term »palingenesis« as a description of the new creation in Christ.
