Controversy over solafidianism

This article could state that Bultmann was almost certainly the most controversial New Testament scholar of the twentieth century. It could also state that in Bultmann's view, historical knowledge was unnecessary for a religious understanding of the world, for his interpretation of the Lutheran doctrine of solafidianism said that justification was by faith, not by historical knowledge.

Theologian or New Testament Scholar

This article begins by describing Bultmann as a Lutheran theologian, but I once read that Bultmmann was a New Testament scholar rather than a theologian. The book in which I read this said that Bultmann was probably the greatest New Testament theologian of the twentieth century, and almost certainly the most controversial.

Dialectical theology, not liberal theology

I would take issue with the second sentence of the introduction to Bultmann. His orientation was dialectical theology, which was a reaction against liberal theology. So to describe him as an important liberal theologian is highly inaccurate and something he would object to.Giedt (talk) 19:58, 29 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
