Wesleyan Theology: A Sourcebook

by Thomas A. Langford

On This Page

Description

"The history of Wesleyan theology is a rich but unmined field. This book of primary sources presents crucial themes and influential theologians of the developing Wesleyan movement from John and Charles Wesley in the eighteenth century to Carl Michalson and Albert Outler in the mid-twentieth. Themes such as justification by faith, sanctification, the role of Jesus Christ, the work of the Holy Spirit, human nature, the interpretation of the Bible, the authority of the Church and the means of show more grace are represented through the writings of major theologians. Each selection is long enough to convey both the flavor and the substance of the theological argument. Taken together these selections demonstrate the lively and continuing importance of the Wesleyan theological tradition, not only for people who are called Methodists, but also for the wider ecumenical Church"--Back cover. show less
