It is clear that I often challenge the traditional reasoning employed by those who subscribe to tension theology. I assert, without reservation, that if we were to interpret God's holiness as merely a source of tension, it would behave like a colossal wrecking ball, threatening to demolish our very existence. The principles that govern justification are equally relevant to the process of sanctification; without this crucial understanding, we risk becoming disjointed beings in our spiritual lives. God reconciles our existence through the profound power of final justification, a reality that exists in tension with the ongoing process of sanctification. Importantly, this reconciliation is not subject to human will or intervention. Thus, the presence of a curse serves to illustrate how God, in His grace, not only enables the renewal of sanctification but also sets certain boundaries around it. Any attempt to resist this divine process ought to be recognized as a curse in itself. This line of reasoning represents a significant departure from typical human thought patterns. To alleviate the corruptive effects of tension, we must first acknowledge the existence of the curse. It becomes increasingly clear that God's work in the realm of sanctification is intricately regulated; it does not function through mere tension but rather operates through systems of permission and prevention. This understanding invites us to reconsider how we perceive and engage with the complexities of divine grace, justice, and the transformative journey of faith. In my extensive experiences discussing the topic of damnation, I often find myself drawing parallels to what many theologians refer to as the tension that exists between justification and sanctification. The prevailing belief is that the righteousness we receive through justification ultimately manifests as sanctified righteousness in our lives. However, I remain skeptical of this perceived tension. Instead, I contend that the curse itself offers insight into the possibility of resolving this tension and perpetually rekindling God’s grace within us. We have the opportunity to reevaluate our understanding and approach to these theological concepts.
