43. Cf. Heron, Century of Protestant Theology. The term neo-orthodox, in a pejorative sense, connotes a theology of resorting to a one-sided emphasis on biblical revelation and dogmatic reaffirmation of Christian confessions and dogmas. As a twentieth-century theological movement, neo-orthodox theology is understood as a radical break with the heritage of nineteenth-century liberalism. Karl Barth is counted as one of the most important representatives of the neo-orthodox movement.
44. According to Barth, a dogmatic theology that understands itself as theologia viatorum must necessarily be the reflection of the church and the task of the church that engages itself concretely in its time and always for a particular time (CD I/1:281). Christian thinking and discourse must lead to its own responsibility for the present time. Thus, Barth is perplexed when both Ragaz and Tillich look upon their work as dynamic while regarding his as static for no reason (CD I/1:74–75).
