Exactly so in. morals—enurage, Ghanity, Kindness are autonomous values; though, at another level of understanding, the eternal worth of these virtues may be seen to depend entirely upon godliness: and the intellectual worth of history proves likewise to depend ‘upon revelation Tt i with history in this latter sense, alone, thet Father Danigiow has concerned himself in this book Ta the Introduction, he shows how the bare possiblity of history (as distinct froma chronicle) arses from the revealed knowledge of God's creative work, and why this particular dimension of thought was discovered late in time. ‘The next ten chapters investigate a variety of eonter- porary topies from the point of view of history a sucedan- ‘um ofthe Chistian revelation, Part Il of the book elucidates some of the principles and tecluniques of history itself, so understood, exhibiting the kind of cootinuity and the kind of progres to be found init Im the last six chapters, the author looks atthe present land future course of history, to see in what sense the Chris- tian ‘makes’ history. In the preface to the original French edition, Father Danilou explained that parts of the work had been com- posed in lecture form: the present translation follows the printed French text closely enough for this remark to have some application still—it seomed that more would have been lost than geined by any attempt to disguise the book nea treatise, ‘Quotations of Scripture are taken from the Knox version (or, eccasionally, from its footnotes), with two exceptions: iblical material in patristic passages, which is commonly not in verbal agreement with the Vulgate, is given in the form which the context svems to requires and Father Mackey’s version of St Frangois de Sales (p- 296), including a quotation from St Paul, stands unaltered. NIGEL ABERCROMBIE, Lewes Easter 1958, INTRODUCTION 1 cortain historical works of God: as, the covenant with Abraham, the birth and resurrection of Jesus Chris ‘and Pentecost. Consequently the Christian outlook is pr marily determined by a series of divine operations, tracing 4 distinct line of development: each of these events marks ‘@ now stage in the actualization of God's design, and a mutation of human life. Two aspects of the whole process are of especial importance: first the nature of the event it self, and of the divine decision transforming reality; and secondly the succession of events, exhibiting at once a cer tain continuity and a certain discontinuity, Le. by definition, ales Bible is record of the evidence for certain eventss If we now examine the forms of thought and philoso phical systems current at the time when Christianity first ‘ade its appearance in the world, i is elear that they were bby no means ready to assimilate this Christian conception: onthe contrary, they were wholly antagonistic thereto, In the first place, there was the influence of Greek thought; here, that which is divine consists in the unmoved ternal order of Ideas. Immutable law, whether of nature or of society, represents to the senses the changeless eternity of the intelligible world. The phenomenon of movement itself, is an imitation of immobility, being conceived us eyclical, both in the regular motions of the heavenly bodies and the eternal recurrence which governs the course of history, so that the same events will be everlastingly repeated. By in a cirele, even change thus conforms wo the 1 2 The Lord of History stable eternity of the ideal world, and no longer implies innovation. No stich thing as an event ean ever infringe the eternal order. ‘The opponition is fundamental between this conception and the Christian belief in @ unique, irrevocable value be- jstorical Incarnation, In the Epistle to the centered ‘once! (iruf) into the holy place, that is, when he ascended into God's heaven: something was then irrevocably gained. Nothing can ever ‘again divide human nature from the Divinity; there is no possibility of a relapse; mankind is essentially saved. All that remains is the business of extending to the individual mem- hers of the species that which has been secured for all humanity. The event, then, has finally effected a qualitative ‘change at a given moment in time, so that things can never bo the same again. The words ‘past” and ‘prosent’ have here their fall meaning. It is this belief in the irreversibility of salvation that gives rise to the Christian virtue of hope, in ‘contrast to the characteristic melancholy whieh flows from ‘the Greek acceptance of an endless repetition, Curiously enough, the earliest Christian theologians were slow to realize the originality of their own position, and in fact began by trying to eliminate it. Thus Origen held that the spiritual creation existed in a state of perfection from the fist, and is presumably co-eterual with the Word but it fell: Consequently the purpose of the Incarnation was to restore a pre-existing condition of affairs. There is nothing new in history. It would have been better if nothing hap- pened at all, and everything hed remained in its primordial stability. Similarly Eusebius® teaches that Christ brought about no innovation of truth, but came simply to re-estab- lish the pure religion of primitive man, for which Judaism. hhad been a temporary substitute, In both these instances, we find the same Greek idea of perfection as something which his always been the same, Me Prine 1:2,10, "Dem Eo. 1:6. Introduction 5 In St Augustine's City: of God, there isa vivid awareness of the Christian concoption of history, in oll sts paradoxical originality. Sared history is here seen to consist of positive boginnings which subsequently las forever. ‘The notion is to the normal proceses af human understanding, eto conceive reality under a two-fold are things that have neither beginning: nor end, which Philo called #ix, the things of God, and there are things that have a beginning and an end, namely corraptible material things. The possibility of things that have a beginning bur no end is offensive to reason: it seems to derive directly from Christian thought. In the Cuy of God, all te great creative decisions of God which have de- termined the course of history are seen to be of this kind the eeation ofthe world (XI: 4), and of mankind (XI: 15), the Covenant with Abraham, which St Augustine called “artculstemporis (XV: 12), and the resurrection of Christ and Ife eternal, determining the everlasting destiny of rman (XII: 21), St Gregory of Nyssa guve expression to the sane conception of history when he wrote that ‘i proceeds Som beginnings to egnings by scene Degonings that have no end” * “This example is enough to indicate the method which characterizes the theology of history: it eomsists precisely in the tse of scriptural principles for the resolution of tions to which these peineiples were not, in seripture, ex plictty applied. Inthe case mentioued in the foregoing para- raph, the particular principle to be applied belongs prop- erly to the Covenant: it i this, that God's promises irrevocable because of his faithfulness; men may be faithful, and thus withdrave themselves from the beneficial enjoyment of the promises, but they cannot hee the pro- tmises withdrayvn, So the union of the divine and Inman natures in Chiist, which took place at a given moment time, is thenceforward permanent, irrespective of all the “Ham. Cant BG. 44-9816 + The Lord of History possible sinfulness of mankind. St Augustine takes over this ‘principle as applicable also to such matters as the creation, for the eternal destiny of man, for these have the same quality of occurring in time (or with time, in the case of the creation of the world), but once forall thereafter un In conflict with the trend of Greek thought, which may fairly be taken as representative of pure reason, the aspect, ‘of the Christian outlook on history that came into promin- ‘ence was the absolute significance of individual events, In controversy with the representatives of Judaism, a second ne outlook had to be more precisely formu- Thore is no such thing as history unless events, besides having some importance, can be shown to be in seme way. continuous, It is just this latter point whieh distinguishes the idea of ‘historicity’, as understood by existentialsts, ‘meaning no more than the present decision of an individual free will, from the idea of sacred history, wherein the indi- ‘vidual fits into the pattern of a Inrger and objectively planned arrangement of reality. Jews and Christians agrve in believing that the religious institutions of Jewry, such as the circumcision, the sabbath, ‘and the temple, are of divine origins but Christians sirmul- taneously hold that Christ abolished these institutions. How is this apparent contradiction to be explained? Can a good thing ever be no good? The problem: was insoluble with the intellectual equipment of the ancient thinkers. Canse- quently we find that the earliest Christian writers such as the pseudo-Barnabes, ond Justin, were actually driven to declare that the Jewish forms never were good, on the hypothesis that their only valid significance was always the spiritual sense enshrined in them, while the literal practice of the rites themselves was always wrong. This desperate Introduetion 5 attempt to dispose of the difficulty plainly undervalued the Old Testament, in the same sort of way as the gnestics who repudiated it altogether. St Irenaeus was the first to discover and propound with- ‘out ambiguity the basis of a definitive solution. Here again it was highly offensive to pure reason, for it introduced the notion of time, xapor, as a necessary element in the forma- tion of value-judgements concerning reality. Thus it must bbe confessed, on the one hand, that the Old Testament is 200d, and that it is the work of the same God who made the New Testament. On the other hand the values of the Old ‘Testament were provisional; they are no longer to be prized when once their due season, their waipor, has elapsed. The ‘error of the Jews is strictly an anachronism, because they ‘would arrest the development of God’s plan, and perpetua an obsolete pattern of reality. Origen, following Melito of Sardis, described the Old Testament as a preliminary sketch —something indispensable at one stage, but of no further uso once the work is finished or as a lamp, which it is absurd to keep alight after sunrise The Christian attitude towards the Old Testament is simply the gratitude that a {grown man should feel for the education he had as a child ‘This, then, is the second distinctive feature of the Christian view of history; the historical process is seen as an economy of progress. The Old and the New Testaments Delong to one scheme of things, but mark two successive stages in its development. St Irenaeus explains this design of succession as a system of pedagogy. Everything that be- longs to the temporal order must be imperfect at first.* God himself consented to this low of original imperfection. Be- fore granting the plenitude of revelation to his people, he began by familiarizing them gradually with his ways, that is, by educating thera. “Thus he called them from what was secondary to what was estential, from types to realities, from Hom. Lev. XA. *Com. Mat tide Her WEAN, 2. bi TV, id 1 6 The Lord of History ‘temporal things to eternal, from feshly to spiritual, from ‘earthly to heavenly." ‘The mention of ‘types’, or ‘figures’, here is of cardinal importance, for the typological method of exegesis defines the relationship of the Old Testament to the New, explain- ing both the similarities and the differences between them. ‘So the Flood, the resurrection of Christ, and holy baptism all conform to one basic structural type: in all three, there ‘a judgement of God, importing the destruction of the sinful world, the old man; in each ease, the righteous is spared, to be the origin of « new manhood. So again, the crossing of the Red Sea prefigured both the Resurrection, ‘and Baptism, being an exercise of divine power to save the people from the bondage of the powers of evil. In this way; typology gives expression to the specific intelligibility that belongs to history as such, Without it, the events recorded would convey no assimilable meaning to our bewildered comprehension; the key is in the possibility of reference back to earlier manifestations of the same ways. Thus the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary belongs to a series ‘of anmunciations, to Sarah, to Hannah, to Zacharias, while a the same time surpassing them all mu ‘Enough has been said vo illustrate the esse torical character of the Christian notion of reality; but there remains a further point: the two categories of event, and progress, do not exhaust the topie. I'they di, we should be faced with a theory of indefinite progress, on the mode! of contemporary theories of evolution. Any suc view would leave out of account the futher, essential truth, ‘that Christianity isnot only progress, but itself the goal of pro- gress. This third and final characterise of the Christian de Maar WEA Introduction 7 ‘outlook om history is its echatological quality; the idea of an fend, éyeror, is of capital importance in the system, from three distinct points of view. Fust, history is not conceived san indefinite progress, but a finite in scope; itis a deter- inate, circumscribed design, called by the Fathers of the Church the cosmic week, which is 10 be followed by the ‘eighth day, representing the life of the world to cor Secondly, Christianity is itself the term of developmen Christ professedly comes “ate in time’, and inaugurates the stage that will not pass away. So there is nothing beyond Christianity. Tt is indeed fryerue, noveasinus, the last thing. And it is the everlasting juvenescence of the world, which makes everything else obsolete. Thirdly, the end of history has already taken place, beeause the incarnation and the ascension of Christ fulfil its purpose. Ieis the great merit of O. Cullmaun’s book, Christ and ‘Time, hat i gives powerful emphasis to this truth: Christ's resurrection being the decisive event in all history, nothing that can ever happen will equal it in importance. This dis- ‘poses at once of all the errors of evolutionism, No progress now can ever bring about for us what we have already got in Christ; that which is beyond all progress is here and now in him; the last state exists already in the Christian mys- teries, Consequvntly no identification is permissible betwee the Christian hope and a belief in progress: they are radic~ ally different things. We have said that Christianity gives a ‘metaphysical value to the idea of innovation: but as it now appears that Christ is the ultimate event, he is, in a sense, the culminating and final innovation. Tt is a further pe- culiarity of the Christian outlook on history that the centre of interest is neither at the beginning, as it was for the Grecks, nor at the end, as it is in evolutionary theories, but in the middie, Itfollons that history differs in kind between 1.6. and A.D. History before Christ was a preparation and a awaiting, Once he is come, the essential busines is to hand (on (rupadons) the sacred and now immutable trust delivered 8 The Lard of History ‘once and for all. The idea of tradition thus acquires a real ‘nveaning, because the world to comes there already. Granted that the last days have come with Charist’s gi ‘of eternal life, a new problem of another sort arises, not now from the impact of Christianity upon other systems of thought, but from the actual historical situation of Chris- tinity itself. If it be said that the coming of Christ las altered the state of mankind, the objection has to be met, that, in the world about ws, no change is in fact apparent. It is as old a Origen: ‘It is obvious in the fall of Jericho (whieh prefigured the defeat of the Powers by the cross of ‘Clurist) that the devil and his army was destroyed. How then is it that these have still so much power egainst the servants ‘of God? . .. Again, the apostle Paul says that Christ has raised us up in his resurrection, and seated us with himself in heaven—yet we believers do not seem to be resurrected, fr in heaven.” Origen supplies the answer, in the san passage: ‘The coming was indeed fulfilled in Christ's abase- ‘ment, but we hope for another coming in glory. The first was called “shadow in « mystical text of holy scripture: “Under hhis shadow we shall live among the heathen.” Hence we know that many things are but a shadow in the time of the first coming.” The Church stands in relation to the Second Coming much as the Law stood in relation to the first: ‘The Apostle says that the Lav is a shadow of good things to come. . . . But we no longer live in their shadow, because we are no longer subject to the Lav, . . . we are under a Detter shadow, for we live under Christ's shadow among the heather." ‘The whole life of the Chureh is characterized by this eo stant exchatological reference. Present knowledge ‘through gflass, in a dark manner’ points towards vision “face to fac ‘Thevisibleorganizationofthe Church prefiguresthe heavenly hierarchy. The sacraments are types and pledges of eternal "Ham. Jon. VUE: 4. i, "Cam it Cane HE (-G. 152153). Introduction 9 rewards. Origen says of Baptism that ‘in the regeneration through fire and the spirit, we shall be conformed to the body of Christ's glory as he sits on the throne of his majesty’ The holy Eucharist is specifically both the nour- ishment of wayfarers and an anticipation of the eschato- logical banquet. The whole Christian determined by the expectation of the Second Coming: but there is nv knowing just when it will be ‘This last question notoriously exercised men's minds @ great deal in the earliest Christian times. Their preoceupa- tion with Christ's coming again provoked a variety of speculative suggestions, some based on the ‘weeks of years? in Daniel, others on the idea of seven millennia. Hippalytus supposed that Christ was born in the middle of the sixth rillenniuim, so that the Seeond Coming would be in A.D. 5002 St Augustine, in his earlier writings, put the Incarna- tion at the beginning of the same millennium, giving A.D. 1000 as the date of the Second Coming. But Christ had already warned his first disciples against all such compata- tions; and the demonstrated error of the conclusions shows their absurdity. God keeps the secret of that day and hour ‘of the Second Comming. Nevertheless itis always imminent, and the Christian attitude of mind intrinsically depends ‘upon the expectation of it, just as the Christian outlook o history is defined in terms of it Vv Consideration of the lapse of time before the Second Coming leads us to examine the current history of the Christian Chured St Augustine says that sacred history oon nes usque ad pracsentia tempora. This is a point of im- portance. Sacred history is not restricted to the contents of Goo, Matt, 4:25. Comm. Dan, 8 40 The Lord of History but is still going on: we are living in sacred history. God still accomplishes his mighty works, in the conversion and sanctification of souls? The particular signi- ficanco of this point is missed in the usual Protestant pre- entations of the theology of history, where sacred history tends to be identified with what is recorded in the Serip- ‘tures, and no reference is made to the Chureh as continuing God's work through the infallible magisterium and the un= failing efficacy of the sacraments. On this understanding the ‘age of the New Israel is less happily cireumstanced than the ‘age of the Old: the Incarnation would thus appear to have ‘arrested the course of history. Such is the position associated with the name of Barth: it can be called a sort of post= Chistian gnosticism, From this point of view, the only important event i the resurrection of Christ, ‘The final salvation of mea flows from this event, solely in proportion 1w their belief in it: but there is no working out of salvation in the course of historial time, History brings no increment of real value, and consequently no progress: there is really ‘no point in it. The Barthian preoeeupation is therefore with the past event of the Resurrection, more than with the present life of the Church, (Cullman doce indoed repudiate this extreme postion, and the fact is worth noting. He acknowledges “an existing kingdom of Christ ond the life of the Holy Spirit in the ‘Church. But he objects to the Catholic presentation that it ‘over-emphasizs the importance of the growing Church and the living tradition. Our reply must be that the Catholics" appreciation of the development of the Church does not in any way diminish their fsith in the unique importance of the fact of the Resurrection; but it does imply recognition of the positive worth of current history, consisting in the growth of the mystical bady through the work of the Spirit, {All these things that we rs of having been foretold and fue pnt eng de ww yen he pre a Inuroduction im Whi ls bag sletdyaccomplined ene foal ime athe union of ranbood and godead in Jesus Chit.

Thus the {question of Christian unity has to be soen in historical per- spective, just as much as the conyersion of the heathen, or of the Jews. ‘The Christian mission is what gives substance and con- sisteney to the history of our era. It is the intrinsic reality underlying the phenomena of secular history. It means the progressive building-up in love of the incorruptible body ‘of Christ which shall go through the fire of judgement. Being the work of the Holy Ghost, the mission continues the mighty works, the mirabilia Det, recorded in the two ‘Testaments: the chosen people were brought out of Egypt, Christ was brought back from the dead, in the power of the self-same Spirit through whom the souls of men are saved in baptism. ‘The work of the Spirit is accomplished through the ‘preaching of the word and throngh the sacraments, which are themselves, as Cullman clearly recognized, the con- tinuation in the Church of the Wunder in the Bible, The mere geographical extension of the mission is not, however, the whole meaning of current history, As we have already seen, the Christian outlook implies a notion of pro- ‘gress; there is an element of progress in Church history, and notably in the history of dogma, Of course the object and ‘content of revelation is unchanging; there can be no ques- ion here of whut i called evolution in the modernist sense: but there is a development of dogma, because the Holy Ghost enables the living Church in its teaching office to define certain aspects of revealed truth whieh are not ex- plictly spelt out in the Seriptures. Karl ‘Thieme has clearly brought out the strictly historical quality of these defini tions: they are not just the result of theological analysis, nor even of the inner mind of the Church; they eorrespond to ‘particular historical situations, indicating the main turning- points in the Church's life, Mohler and Newman recognized in this development one of the distinguishing characteristics of current sacred history. Introduction 15 Continuing thus the series of the wonderful works of God in the world, the life of the Chureh is traversed by the fact of sin. The powers of evil whieh wore destroyed by the ‘ross of Christ retain the appearance of elfective hostility until the Second Coming. Chirst’s Chureh is thus at odds vwith sin as the people of Israel were in former times, In this context, St Augustine distinguished hetween two dif- ferent kinds of trial. There is fist the opposition of the ou side world, where the limiting case is martyrdom: ‘The ‘more copiously the Church is watered with the blood of ‘martyrs, the more it grows." This is the point of insertion of the whole theology of martyrdom, whiel belongs to the theology of history inasmuch as it embodies and typities the conflict between sacred and secular history. Martyrdom is thus soon as the archetypal form of conflict with evil, as the ‘summit of Christian sanctity through conformation w Christ, land as the official proclamation of the Gospel to the accred- ited representatives of the earthly eity Secondly, however, the enmity of the devi is evinced by divisions within the Church, as well as by persecutions from ‘without: as St Augustine said, ‘this vine, as the Lord had foretold, had to be purged, and the unfruitful branches taken awway, wwhtence came schisms and heresies, che work of men who sought not the Lord’s glory, but their own’ And here should follow the theology af the separation of the Churches and of the retum to unity, as Fr Conger has vwritven it: the history of heresy thus acquires a valid theo- logical significance. y So far we have been concerned with the nucleus of sacred history, which is coterminous with the history of the Me cat rk. #4. bid u The Lord of History Church; but this is not the whole of history. We have to ‘consider the relationship of history commonly so-called, the history of civilizations and empires, with the history of 11: a¢ to which, opinions vary widely. In St Augus- 's view, the history of the city of God, which eoincides with the history of the Chure, is altogether distinct from land antagonistic to the history of the eity of Satan, which ‘corresponds to political history. At the opposite extreme, cer- tain evolutionist thoories of modern times tend to merge the history of the Church into the universal march of progress: ‘and some Christian thinkers, who would not go so far as that, would prefer to confine the strictly historical facts of progress within the realm of secular history, leaving to the Church indeed the function of impregnating history with the Christian spirit, but not that of making history avall ‘On this subject, three observations may conveniently be made here First, the interaction of sacred and secular history is an ‘established fact. The Christian outlook embraces the whole field of historical reality. St Irenaeus, in primitive times, ‘saw that universal history was all part of the Divine dis- pensation; and in this respect he was only expounding the doctrine of Genesis. The Creator and the Redeemer are one ‘and the same God. Civilization is not devils’ work: society and culture belong to creation, they are part of the work of God's hands. They represent the organization af a world that has fallen from grace, but is not essentially evil, Es C Rust rendered valuable service by his clear demonstration ‘of the way in which the totality of world history fits into the pattern of the Christian synthesis It is a two-way relation- ship. On one hand, extrinsically, the history of the Church affected on the surface by the fate of cultures. The ich may be regarded not only as transcendent, but also as incarnate; and from the latter point of view, "The Chriaian Understanding of Hist (1947) Introduction 6 of the Church is a reitd of the various and sccesive Christan evilaaione Palestinian, Byzantine, Medieval, Baroque, Romaati and moder, (For there i nothing verong, despite certain suggestions tote contrary, in woe Inulipe incarnations ofthe Church inthe diferent forms Af scil order: the harm fice in attempts to identify the ‘huh exchaively with any one of thee fri) Tt alee true thatthe Chute exercies a reciprocal infaence on the alites Inno which i is ndopeed: Ths on these inne Considerations, the higory of Chisanity alle within emer bisory, being one of it mort important, cont ent, But. fom anther point of view te hiroy of tielisations fll within the story of elation, This nt Veoaue of any siti riligios vale to be aaribed to Inman jrogren wether teal or toa by Chelan ttandards tee sorsehig indecent nell. beg cop Able cf evi as wells of good.

All the rest, such as the series of Christendoms in which Eeclea una is emi= bodied, is but the outward vesture of reality. The progress ‘of the Church is not just. the record of its influence on ‘echnical and social developments: the activity of the Church is not to be measured primarily in terms of its suc- ‘cess in humanizing social conditions, or inculeating a right use of leisure, or improving the workers’ standard of living. Important as they are, these things are secondary; the essential work of the Church is the liberation of the souls ‘of men from spiritual bondage, though the Church also works for their economic enfranichisement. The fact of the matter is that the world of human ‘secial organization is already obsolete. Tn this third observa- tion we find another application of strictly historical eri- teria, The coming of Christ has brought the kingdom of God into being. The only real society nov is that of God's people, the Church. Christ's universal and exclusive kingship is an accomplished fact. Earthly civilization survives under a sort ‘of stay of execution until the end of the world. In this parti= ‘cular situation wo may sec the antinomy which is the tragic drama of Christianity, for the Christian belongs at once to a world that has ceased to be, and to a world that is not yets ly appears, for instance, in the ate of war, which arises from the obsolete condition of society, altogether con- trary to the Gospel, yet Christians are in it, Hence the ‘Church and temporal society can never enjoy the harmoni- ‘ous relationship of two parallel organizations, whore one Introduetion w might be the other's complement and erown. successive periods of history, ix dramatic conflict. vI Seeing Christianity and eulture face to face, we have been led to consider how they stand in relation to each other in regard to the whole history of salvation. There is another species of confrontation which is of capital importance for the Church today, though it was already one of the pre- ‘occupations of such an early writer as Clement of Alexan- dria: namely, the position of Christianity in relation to th heathen religions’ Once again, there are various schools of thought, diametrically opposed to each other. The evolu tionary theory of Comparative Religions regards Chris tianity a: a stage in the development of the religious atti- tude, evolving naturally from earlier forms. At the other extreme, some theologians tend to dismiss all pagan systems 1s one mass of errors and superstitions, toxally lacking any trace of goodness and truth, fit only to be demolished to make room for the Gospel. ‘As before, itis possible to find in the theology of history ‘a resolution of these difficulties, which preserves whats valid im both theories, and enables ns to see how the heathen religions fit into the broad pieture of the history of salvation. In the first place, there is an element of truth in the nature-cults. They belong to the earliest of all the cove- wnts, that made with Noah, wherein God is revealed through the regularity of natural processes, but not yet, ‘sin the covenant with Abraham, through the singularity ‘f historical events, In the rhythms of bodily life, and the movements of the stars, and the succession of the seasons, ‘we can learn something of God and his ways: they are ner ta he considered under the same areval the The special cae of Ilan al Ibeaing susan, for while the latter ian anachronis Kemet sa regres, 18 The Lord of History hisrophanies, affording us the knowledge of a personal Pro- ‘vidence whose faithfulness is attested by their unvarying recurrence. ‘That is the gist of the seriptural account of the promise made to Noah, where the subject-matter was the forder of nature, and a rainbow was the attestation. The samie doctrine is implicit in the Epistle tothe Romans: ‘fom the foundations of the world men have caught sight of his invisible nature, his eternal power and his divineness, as they are known through his creatures's Tt i defined in the Acts: ‘the living God... . allowed Gentile folk everywhere to follow their own devieus; yet even so hve has not left us without some proof of what he is; it is his bounty that grants us rain from heaven, and the seasons which give birth to our crops, so that we have nourishment and comfort to our hearts desire.” ‘The fact remains that this primitive revelation is no- where to be found free of corruption. That is not to deny the soundness of its foundation; but things have since gone awry. So Emil Brunner was justified in saying that ‘no religion in the world is without some elements of truth. No religion is without its profound error.” The same thought appears in the Fpistle to the Romans, just after the ‘verve from which the previous quotation was taken: man- Kind ‘exchanged the glory of the imperishable God for representations of perishaile man, of bird and beast and reptile’ Idolatry consists in taking the things of nature, ‘wherein God is revealed, as objects of worship. Thus pagan= ism is ambivalent, and inews condemnation on one hand while exciting compassion on the other. Tt is truly both Aind of ‘tothing-swork, from whieh the building of Cheisi- anity may be securely developed, and also the chief obstacle twits ‘The heathen religions obstruct the march of Christianity because of their obsolescence as much as by their corrup: ‘Nom. 1:20, saat: 147 *The Mediators. Wyon, 1934), p88. "Rom, 1:25, Introdtection 19 tion. It is once again a question of historical he covenant with Noah vas the true religion of ‘until the covenant with Abraham was made; but from that ‘moment it was superseded. From the time of the Gospel it hhas been doubly obsolete; it is anachronistic twice over, ‘What is wrong with the heathen religions is that they have ‘not made room for revelation. ‘They have not succeeded in playing their difficult part in what Guardini calls the ‘drama of the forerunners: their function was to make way for that which should succeed them, as John the Baptist did for Jesus, aud Melchizedek for Abraham at the mieeting- point of the covenants But the forerunner is always tempted not to give way, tempted to withstand history, by tying to stop the unfolding of God's design and fix the pattern at the moment of his own conteibution: if he does that, the forerunner becomes an antagonist. Guardini gives the example of Buddha as a great forerunner of the Gospel, who may well turn out ta be its last opponent, ‘The supersession of the primitive revelation of nature by the historic covenant does not invalve its annihilation, but tather its fulfilment, just as the Old Testament is fulfilled in the New. In both cases, all the real values of the former are taken over into the latter and raised to a higher plane. So im Genesis, the narrative of Creation and the Fall of Man embodies mythical material, enriched with new meaning. So, too, the Fevwish Passover ie a celebration of the historieal Exodus within the framework of @ vegetation-ritual of spring, and itself came afterwards to serve as the liturgical Framework for the festival of the Resurrection. Seen in the full context of the history of salvation, the sequence of reli gious systems is not a mere succession, oF a natural evolu tion, but a series of advances under the creative impulsion ‘of the Holy Ghost "See Danish, Advent (ts. Seeds 1950), p58 20 The Lord of History ‘The Christian conception of history was plainly not the result of any systematic process of reasoning. As questions arose out of the circumstances of the Church’s continued ‘existence in time, so the Church was induced to work out its own idea of the history of salvation. The theology of history became pessible only when Christianity had become aware of the fact of its ow duration, and enucleated the inner significance of that fact.
