The Lamb of God has not taken away the sins of some - of only the good, or the cooperative, or the select few who can manage to get their act together and die as perfect peaches. I am one if you are talking about what God in Christ has done to save the world. Capon summarizes his broad view of salvation as follows: He authored a total of twenty books, including Between Noon and Three, The Supper of the Lamb, Genesis: The Movie, and a trilogy onJesus’ parables: The Parables of Grace, The Parables of the Kingdom, and The Parables of Judgment.Ĭapon described himself in the introduction to one of his books as an “old-fashioned high churchmanand a Thomist to boot.” One of Capon’s primary themes is the radical grace of God. In 1965, he published his first book, Bed and Board, and in 1977 he left the full-time ministry to devote more time to his writing career. A lifelong New Yorker, for almost thirty years Capon was a full-time parish priest in Port Jefferson, New York. He was born in Jackson Heights, Queens in 1925. Was an American Episcopal priest and author. I had just recently found his writings and been liking them below there are some excerpts from some of his writings. This morning I was searching the interwebs and I happened upon Robert Farrar Capon (1925-2013).
