Drinking from the Byzantine Tradition: John Wesley’s Synthetic Understanding of Anthropology, Soteriology, and Teleology 公开
Reneau, Robert Steven (2011)
Abstract
During his life and the centuries after his death, many scholars see the theology of John Wesley as attempting to bridge a gap between Roman Catholicism and Protestantism. However, since Albert C. Outler mentioned in a footnote of the bottom his book titled John Wesley in 1964 that Wesley also pulled from the early Byzantine tradition, scholars are now attempting to place Wesley's work in a new light that attempts to bridge the paradigms of the Western church and Eastern church. This work shows how Wesley forged a synthetic understanding of anthroplogy, soteriology, and teleology that is heavily based in Western notions, but also drawing from multiple early Greek voices like Clement of Alexandrius, Macarius/Gregory of Nyssa, and Chrysostom.
