The Witness of God - The Trinity, _missio Dei_, Karl Barth, Nature of Christian Community

Informationen zum Autor John G. Flett is assistant professor of mission theology at Presbyterian College and Theological Seminary in Seoul, Korea. This is his first book. Klappentext A constructive revision of trinitarian missio Dei theology! John Flett's Witness of God argues that the neglect of mission as a theological locus has harmful consequences for understanding both the nature of God's connection with the world and the corresponding nature of the Christian community. Flett maintains that mission/witness is an integral part of God's being! not a secondary characteristic! and contends that the church -- if we truly seek to reflect the fullness of God's being -- must reflect this truth by becoming a missionary community.
