Using the ancient Chinese story “The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove,” Dr. Chung engages with Christian eschatological discourse to support an aesthetical-utopian theological ethics that is opposed to an ethics concerned with legitimation of a socio-economic status quo. In addition, Dr. Chung’s develops his deep commitment to the Lutheran theology of the cross and the suffering Christ through the Buddhist concept of dukkha (suffering) to create, in the end, a genuinely East Asian contextual theologyStudies in systematic theology (Leiden, Netherlands) ;v. 1.Christianity and other religionsTheologyAsiaPhilosophy, AsianAsiaReligionElectronic books.Christianity and other religions.TheologyPhilosophy, Asian.230.095Chung Paul S.1958-865825MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459649903321Constructing irregular theology1932252UNINA
