Resumen
REICHEL, Hanna. Swords to ploughshares: On doing election. STJ [online]. 2022, vol.8, n.1, pp.1-14. ISSN 2413-9467. http://dx.doi.org/10.17570/stj.2022.v8n1.ad1.
The article uses the lens of design theory to conceptualize Dirk Smit et al's "reading the tradition against tradition" as a case of theological re-design of the doctrine of election. In analogy to creatio originalis and creatio continua, it introduces a distinction between electio originalis and electio continua. It argues that theological conceptual redesign, which turns the doctrine of election from an instrument of violence and separation into an instrument of peace and hope, might not only be in the spirit of the biblical "swords to ploughshares," but might itself constitute a way of doing election as participation in the electio continua.
