In order to achieve unity, we need consensus on the Logos, yet our individual contexts give rise to different rhemas. Regrettably, there are sharp disagreements among most Christian movements regarding the interpretation of some parts of the Logos. Each of these Christian groups follows their own path. Yet, our collective longing is to move in the same direction. The problem stems from our perception of theology and how we create our theological beliefs.

Unveiling The Strength Of Theological Explorations 

It is undeniable that theologians have conflicting interpretations of the Logos. However, using conflicting beliefs as an excuse to avoid theological explorations is a grave error. Stanford E. Murrell, ThD says, “…every thoughtful individual is a theologian to some extent, for life and destiny are affected by what an individual believes about God and His will.’’

“The last four to five centuries have been a time in history when anti-Christian philosophies and thought patterns have flourished to the full extent in Christian societies’’ (Johnson C. Phillips). Engaging in theological explorations helped Christians overcome the attacks they received from other worldviews and maintain their efficiency in answering questions.

In our theological pursuits, we must strive to differentiate between theology itself and the doctrines of the Bible. ‘‘Theology is a method by which we seek and reason about God, His Word, and His will for humankind, organizing information and gathering evidence to understand Him better.’’

Scattered throughout the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, are countless hidden treasures. One major benefit of theological explorations for the Christian faith is its ability to organize and categorize these biblical treasures.

‘‘Theology helps us not only to gather many of these treasures but also to organize them according to their kinds. In every field of thought, theologians generated materials and pieces of evidence to support the Christian faith. These help us be effective in bringing every thought into captivity to the knowledge of Christ’’ (John M. Woloko, The Bible Vs Theology).
