I consider this matter to be the point of strength in Bultmann's argument, as he believes that before addressing the theological task of clarifying the message of the Gospels for the people of the present time, we must raise historical questions from a methodological standpoint—questions that identify and describe the cultural background of the New Testament views and the philosophical or hermeneutical issues related to the meaning of those views in both that time and this time.
Now we must return to the transformation of his initial thought, whose roots lay in liberalism, and then follow the influence that his reaction to the critique of historical-critical research left on his own thoughts, so that we reach the impact of the interpretation of the proponents of comprehensive theology of the Gospels, explain his encounter with Barth and dialectical theology, and specify the role of Heidegger's philosophy in refining his theological method; then we will have the opportunity to study his suggestions in detail and observe their overall impact.
For this reason, from the 1920s onwards, we see Bultmann discussing the mythological nature of the ideas in which the New Testament expresses the Christian message in a theological form, and we also see that he interprets these mythological ideas in an (existentialist) way, as is expected from dialectical theology, in order to discover its contemporary meaning.
From the 1920s onwards, Bultmann says that the New Testament expresses the Christian message in a mythological form and employs existential thinking to clarify the mythological meaning both from the perspective of the original creators of this concept and from the perspective of contemporary man.
