RT Article T1 Wiedergeburt? Erwägungen zur dogmatischen Revision eines diskreditierten Begriffs JF Zeitschrift für Theologie und Kirche VO 109 IS 1 SP 48 OP 69 A1 Hofheinz, Marco 1973- LA German PB Mohr Siebeck YR 2012 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1776681169 AB The once doctrinally popular notion of »palingenesis« has been largely discredited for its political preoccupation and its theological misuse by neo-conservative and evangelical »born again« Christians. The article seeks to reappropriate this discredited notion through an alternative theological language game which follows the biblical use of the term »palingenesis« as a description of the new creation in Christ.
