The Testimony of the Spirit: New Essays

Editat de R. Douglas Geivett, Paul K. Moser
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 iun 2017
The theme of the testimony of the Spirit of God is found in various Biblical writings, but it has received inadequate attention in recent theology, Biblical studies, and the philosophy of religion. This book corrects that inadequacy from an interdisciplinary perspective, including theology, Biblical studies, philosophy of religion, ethics, psychology, aesthetics, and apologetics. The book includes previously unpublished work on the topic of the testimony of the Spirit in connection with: its role in Biblical literature, an ontology of the Spirit, conscience and the voice of God, moral knowledge, religious diversity and spiritual testimony, psychology and neuroscience, community and language, art and beauty, desire and gender, apologetics, and the church and discernment. The book includes a General Introduction that identifies some key theological and philosophical topics that bear on the topic of the testimony of the Spirit, and it concludes with a bibliography on the testimony of the Spirit. The book pursues its topics in a manner accessible to a wide range of readers from various disciplines, including college students, educated non-academics, and researchers.

Recenzii

Geivett and Moser have done ground-breaking work in editing this brilliant interdisciplinary work on a major theme in Christian tradition and experience. Contributors address the epistemology, meaning, and metaphysics involved in appealing to "the testimony of the Spirit," drawing on philosophy, theology, Biblical studies, and even cognitive science and neuroscience. This provides religious believers and skeptics, experts and newcomers, an array of original, engaging work.
Analytic theology - among the other methods deployed here - takes a pneumatological turn! The so-called hidden member of the Trinity is no longer shy, in particular being given witness to in this collection of well-written essays. Here is testimony about the Spirit that clarifies the very murky topics surrounding about how God works among, in, and through human creatures as well as exemplifies the kind of substantive development on the Third Article of the faith required for the truly and robustly trinitarian theology called for and sought after in our time.
This volume not only fills in a crucial gap in the literature, it opens up a new network of issues to be taken up in philosophical theology and analytic theology. This is an outstanding set of interdisciplinary papers that should become essential reading for anyone interested in the testimony of the Holy Spirit and related topics.
