Vignettes of Community Hermeneutics - Openness to Correction; In the series: GEMEINDETHEOLOGIE: Who & How?
Some have seen the
Anabaptists' openness to correction as the simplest way in which congregational
hermeneutics was practiced,[1]
for in doing so they opened themselves up to a conversational partner. This
community fits two of the threefold descriptions presented above: Scripture and
Spirit. Yet, "openness to correction" as a hermeneutical community is
not a very good fit when it comes to the community of believers criteria, for
it often lacked the tight interconnection and relationships postulated as
essential by Fowl.
