I found a great Christian Bookstore in Louisville during my summer holidays called Christian Book Nook. (Incidentally, it’s right beside a great local bakery that sells tasty Honey Buns.) Since I’m blogging through the Epistles of John, a used copy of Bultmann’s contribution to Hermeneia caught my attention.

In discussing 1 John 1:4 on joy becoming complete, Bultmann observes:

The being of the believer is no static being, but is always in the process of becoming.
