How far do mainline Lutherans take the Law/Gospel hermeneutic? How would this interact with a theologian that insists that the Bible's message is more properly understood as a narrative of liberation, and that God has a preferential option for the oppressed (Liberation Theology)?
My time attending the Lutheran church and reading has lead me to ask this question. There is a lot of emphasis on forgiveness from guilt, which seems to be an issue mostly of white northern Europeans.
