Brockhaus N2 - BIBLISCHE BESINNUNG Reiner Braun: „Bitte aufräumen!“ Predigt am Buß- und Bettag über Markus 1,15 (262–266) AUFSÄTZE Marius Reiser: Aszetik bei Paulus und bei Teresa von Avila (267–279) Paul as well as Teresa of Avila show determination and a pull towards the grand in spiritual life. They value self-restraint and a sense of bodily asceticism. Paul sees an analogy in sports (1 Cor 9: 24–27, Phil 3: 7–11). And both know that without divine grace nothing comes to pass. Martin Stupperich: Reformation als Bollwerk gegen den Antichrist (280–295) The reformation und the confessional time are fundamentally impacted by apocalyptic ideas in the german Lutheranism. Martin Luther thought and acted as an apocalypticist. The apocalyptic ideas were very serious to him and to the other reformers and they were not a tribute to the lower classes of people. Indeed he formed the figure of Antichrist to a basic idea leaded by criteria, so that he didn’t fight against a personally Antichrist but against antichristian forces. For Luther and the reformers these forces were the papacy, the turks, the Jews and the bad Christians. Johannes Zimmermann: Gemeinde, Mission und Transformation. Ein Gespräch mit der „Transformationstheologie“ (296–312) Beginning with an overview of the worldwide theological, partly also political discourse on transformation, the article examines backgrounds and contexts of the evangelical „transformation theology“. This is understood as a „contextual theology“ whose intention and reasoning are plausible and at the same time often limited to certain contexts and specific church situations. Finally, the concern of „transformation“ is put in relation to the theme of God’s kingship (kingdom of God). In doing so, theological criteria for evaluation are developed.
