Plot

Product description Book by CAPON From Library Journal Following up on his Parables of Grace (LJ 7/88), Capon applies his wit and erudition to the parables of judgment Jesus spoke and acted out as his earthly life was ending. As usual, Capon's theology is an odd evangelical/universalist hybrid: we are saved by faith alone, never by works, he insists; yet Jesus's judgment is a "grand sacrament of vindication" based on "inclusion before exclusion," and only "party poopers" who refuse to enjoy the fun wind up being shown the door. There is something very incongruous about seeing "salvation (as) slapstick." Still, agree or disagree, readers are bound to be stimulated and entertained.-- ECCopyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc.
