The Problem of “Kingdom Now” Theology Challenge Part 2

In this part two of the article the article begins by introducing positive challenges of the Kingdom Now theology, and after that it analyzes various teachings of the Kingdom now theology in areas such as soteriology, eschatology, ecclesiology, Christology and anthropology. Based on theological-biblical analysis, the article identifies two major problems of Kingdom Now theology: the first problem is the so-called “over-realized eschatology” wherein the blessings of salvation that belong to the future time - at the time of the coming of Christ - are claimed as present realities. The second problem is the humanization of Christ and divinization of believers. Accordingly, the article argues for the need to recognize and accept the positive things that Kingdom Now theology brings, but also there is a need for recognizing and rejecting all of the wrong and heretical doctrines and practices.
