Abstract

Abstract: Looking at the scriptures as that which bear witness to a doxological anthropology, this essay responds to Gwen Sayler's article, “Beyond the Biblical Impasse: Homosexuality through the Lens of Theological Anthropology.” This essay argues that the approach to the church's decision concerning the ordination of open and active self-identified homosexuals and the blessing of same-sex homoerotic relationships needs to be based on the sacramentality of the Creator's design of male and female and the doxological anthropology present in the apostolic witness. It examines the meaning of ritualizing the complementarity of male and female as the patterning by which humanity understands its source and its destiny.
