Background on Karl Barth

Karl Barth was a Swiss theologian. His ideas on God and Christianity have earned him the honour of being regarded as the greatest Protestant theologian belonging to the twentieth century

Barth was also called the father of neo orthodoxy, but he rejected the title. His work has influenced many a significant people, such as Jacques Ellul and Thomas Torrance, the leaders in the Confessing Church.

Mark your work with the answers provided Authority - Commandments/power over ruling individuals Apostles – comes from a Greek word meaning a group of Christian figuresCanon – A collection of books inspired by God Disciples - one who accepts and assists in spreading the doctrines of another Incarnation – when Jesus became flesh Denomination – Independent branch in the church

Barths Believed that scripture became inspired when those who read it had a personal encounter with JesusNeo Orthodoxy's reject the conservative belief of biblical inerrancy – they accept the fact that the Bible can be wrong, these mistakes can range from contradictions to mistranslations. They promote the belief that the Bible purely contains the word of God rather than being a direct translation of Gods word God revealed himself in Jesus, his son (incarnation) Christianity is Gods attempt to reach humanity, the Bible being the bridge We read the Bible in revelation that we are sinners and need Gods forgiveness, Jesus’ presence allows us to feel Gods forgiveness The Bible is a vehicle for Gods experience, the Bible is a personal experience for every reader and they can interpret it how they want to, the experience becoming more personal Barth directly describes the Bible as “fallible”, meaning it is capable of being wrong which can falter its amount of authority, human language can be confusing There is never an absolute with something so subjective, we can treat the Bible with space for a personal experience
