Description: | Theme III, PAUL & JUSTICE, focuses on what Paul understands the “life in Christ” to mean. Paul describes Christian baptism as “dying to the values of Roman society and rising into a new life in Christ in which there is neither Greek nor Jew, Male nor Female, Slave nor Free.” Radical Paul, says Crossan, taught early Christians that to be alive in Christ is to be dead to the normal hierarchies that characterized Roman life and the Roman world. Dr. Crossan describes a fundamental Roman confidence in a world where the victor stands over the vanquished and the conqueror stands over the conquered. Jesus, radical Paul would say, rejects that worldview and invites all into a community of mutuality, equality and justice. Session 1 – Baptism as New Creation Session 2 – War and Slavery Session 3 – War and Patriarchy Session 4 – Saint Thecla |
