On the Doctrine of Election, with Special Reference to the Aphorisms of Dr. Bretschneider

Meer over het boek

Friedrich Schleiermacher's essay presents a nuanced perspective on the doctrine of election, exploring it as a unified concept rather than a series of separate instances. This pivotal work, released shortly before his major systematic theology, "The Christian Faith," delves into the implications of election for individual faith and the broader Christian community. The translation makes Schleiermacher's influential ideas accessible to a wider audience, shedding light on his theological contributions and their significance in the context of 19th-century thought.
