This remarkable study articulates a Korean Confucian-Christian
theory of human nature-theory of justification, sanctification, and
salvation by means of a reformed concept of filial piety. The book
investigates in depth the theological anthropology of Robert C.
Neville and the inclusive humanism of Tu Wei-ming. Neville and Tu
represent contemporary Christian and Confucian approaches to
religious anthropology. Furthermore, they have engaged in an
extended and productive dialogical encounter on the themes of
comparative thought and religious renewal in Asia and North
America. This book argues that Neville's and Tu's insights into
human nature have great relevance for a comparative, contemporary
Korean theology by focusing on the role of a reformed version of
filial piety as a new component of Korean theology. The
articulation of filial piety as a potential key of contemporary
Korean theology is an example of creative appropriation of a
Confucian theme of the Christian praxis of sanctification, and
ultimately the soteriology of divine grace and transformation. This
study construes human nature to be such that any living theology
will reflect the creative engagement of Christian theologians as
public intellectuals in search of the articulation of the gospel.
