Hi there, my name is Victoria, and I am currently in Bible college and one of my current classes is Christian Theology and I am really confused. I am reading a book called Evangelical Theology written by Karl Barth, and I am just overall confused, what is theology? What is the point to theology?
Theology currently does not make any sense to me, is there any way that someone would be able to explain theology to me in a way that would make sense to me and help me understand what is going on. I have to read a bunch of the book, and tomorrow I have a quiz on a different theology book from the same class. I just do not know what to do as theology is seeming to make no sense to me. Thanks!
I would be concerned where that would lead you. I went to a seminary in the past where Barth was a big part of it. And, his biggest professor advocate questioned "How can we know truth?" Post-modernism centers around people like him. I left seminary after a year. They couldn't understand why I wouldn't want to stay, so they could convince me that I was being deceived. It was really a crazy experience.
I later ran into one of my former classmates. He was a mess. He lost his passion for God, but graduated. How sad! Not a fan of cemetary!
