kerygma
/kəˈrɪɡmə
/noun (plural kerygmata /kəˈrɪɡmətə/) Theology
The preaching or proclamation of the Christian gospel: our historical knowledge of Jesus validates the Christian kerygma...
- The process of mutuality begins with valuing the context of God's people in which the kerygma has been preached.
- Discard the myths in which biblical stories are wrapped and hold on to the kerygma to which they point.
- This is simply untrue as kerygma and woefully inadequate for churches to teach as social ethics.
Origin
Late 19th century: from Greek kērugma, from kērussein 'proclaim'.
