Welcome to Lesson #3: The Theology of the Cross / Theologies of Glory: What’s the Difference?
- About this lesson
- Quiz
Welcome to the third session.
I hope that so far you are starting to see the "Theology of the Cross" more clearly. Today, we'll begin to look more closely at the distinction between this theology and so-called "Theologies of Glory."
An important thing to keep in mind is this: A theology of the cross affirms that Glory is the experience of all aspects of God’s redemptive victory over sin, death, and the Devil – but these will only come to us in the Better Day, not before.
I hope you have a great session.
