Nondualistic Pentecostal Theology - Exploring Dialectics and Becoming Through Amos Yong and Slavoj Zizek

This work examines the contradiction between Amos Yong's philosophical nondualism and theological dualism and Slavoj Žižek’s Hegelian dialectics. What emerges is a nondualistic pentecostal theology that identifies the God-World relationship as inextricable, dialectics being driven by negativity, and transcendence as the creative act.
