While there is increasing interest in the "theology of the cross,"
few people have specific knowledge of what makes it different from
other kinds of theology. In On Being a Theologian of the Cross,
Gerhard O. Forde provides an introduction to this theological
perspective through an analysis of Luther's Heidelberg Disputation
of 1518, the classic text of the theology of the cross. The book
first clarifies the difference between a theology of glory and a
theology of the cross and explains how each perspective shapes the
very nature of being a theologian. The main body of the book
provides commentary on the Heidelberg Disputation-the only complete
analysis of this document currently available. Underlying Forde's
exposition is the contention that one ought not to speak of the
theology of the cross merely as another item among a host of
theological options; instead, one must pursue what it means to be a
theologian of the cross and to look at all things through suffering
and the cross.
