There are times in the history of the church when a needed corrective takes place. This is achieved with a certain emphasis. It is an artificial imbalance and it is designed to bring the church back to balance (like Luther’s work on grace). The problem is this: If we’re not careful, we make a featured characteristic out of a corrective, and thus embrace an opposing imbalance.
In the end, we need to embrace a holistic representation of God. We need to recognize that these emphases are designed to re-balance our design.
