Opis

This book examines and compares the theological views of Dr. John Owen (1616-1683), the Puritan pastor and theologian, and John Wesley (1703-1791), the evangelist and founder of Methodism. A.C. Clifford offers a critical, in-depth discussion of the philosophical foundations of the ultra-orthodoxy of John Owen, suggesting a positive solution to the controversy between Calvinism and Arminianism, a controversy that today continues to vex those who seek a coherent biblical grasp of the Reformed Faith.

`there is much that is compelling in Clifford's argument and it may be added that he expounds some difficult and complex themes with an enviable clarity and sympathy.' Proceedings of the Wesley Historical Society
