The document discusses the importance of contextualizing theology so that it is relevant to local cultures while remaining true to biblical teachings. It provides definitions of contextualization from scholars like Darrell Whiteman and Paul Hiebert. Models of contextualization are outlined, such as translation, anthropological, praxis, and synthetic. The document also presents guidelines for determining whether a local theology demonstrates sound contextualization or drifts into heterodoxy, such as whether it is coherent with revelation, leads to Christ-like behavior, and challenges cultural norms. Overall, the document argues that all theology is contextual and aims to provide a framework for developing theologies that faithfully engage with local contexts.
