I don't think so!

edit

I don't believe the article. All main stream christianity claims that the old testament must be interpreted in the light of the message of the new testament, thus according to the article's definition, all christianity is "progressive revelationist". Therefore I believe that the article mumbles away or misunderstands the real 'progressive revelation' concept. Rursus dixit. (mbork3!) 10:44, 20 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

I simply removed the dubious-marked para claiming that orthodoxi and catholici disagree with prog-revel. The concept Progressive revelation seems to occur with two slightly different attitudes: 1. the GT shall be interpreted as observed "through the NT-glasses", 2. it is vain to reinterpret such GT-sayings that contradicts NT-sayings. All christians (by definition) adher to 1., while most reject 2. as either too restrictive or too "liberal" (although in a sense it is not it is actually a thought restriction). Rursus dixit.
