Karl Barth on Governance - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 236 Governance/State/Church/Barth: While in the temporal context of execution political and legal action as necessary has a power- and violent function only externally-subsidiary to the primary and necessarily non-violent because it is aimed at free appropriation ecclesial proclamation action, these priority relationships are reversed under eschatological conditions: Since here, the telos of ecclesiastical action has been achieved, the overall structure of the universal community is better described in a political and legal metaphor (...) as the "Realm of God", whereby this rule (...) is to be thought of as the informal "rule" of non-violent love. >State, >Church, >Society. Brocker I 239 State/church relationship: Barth uses the example of Jesus and Pilate to illustrate the relationship between church and state from his theological point of view. (1) In this way, the relationship between church and state is narratively related to the primal scene of a conflict-like encounter, which in turn plays a central role in the origin of the church, namely in the event context of Jesus' death and resurrection. Barth would like to read from the "encounter" thus understood, as in it the "state" manifests itself as "one of those at all times freed from demonization, i.e. the angel powers ('exousiai') of this eon threatened by self-absolutization" and "towards him the Church" shows itself as "the actual 'politeuma'[citizenship] of the new heaven and the new earth, but as such still hidden now and here and thus it shows a foreign community ('paroikia') in the space of the state"," (2). >Power/Barth. 1.
