Paul Tillich (1886 to 1965)
Oil and Water Still Don't Mix
Birth of German-Lutheran theologian Paul Tillich. He quoted little of the Bible in his works, which were more pantheistic than Christian. It is doubtful that he experienced the saving power of Christ although he worked within a Christian tradition.
