The radical effects of the 16th century Reformation have been felt through generations and have profoundly shaped theology. James William McClendon explores the impact of these effects for the heirs of the Reformation in his celebrated three-volume systematic theology. With a new introduction by Curtis W. Freeman, these comprehensive volumes elucidate a distinctly Baptist vision of theology through McClendon's exposition of Christian ethics, doctrine, and witness. In so doing, McClendon provides readers with a robust vision for understanding Scripture, the Church, and the Christian's place within the world. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

This is the first book in his three-volume series on systematic theology, and as far as I know he is the only writer to tackle the challenge from an Anabaptist perspective. He begins with the assumption that the church is not the world - our story and theology is not the world's theology. And it would be a mistake not only try to appeal to the world's reason but also to try and conceal our differences.
Another central argument is against "decisionism" in ethics. He argues that through narrative we are able to understand our identity and therefore be informed in our ethics. His entire book argues against a modernist understanding of ethics. If we were to categorize McClendon, he would probably be post-modern in his attempt at systematic theology. ( )
