"Thisbook identifies the impasse between classical Protestant and
contemporary charismatic and Pentecostal pneumatologies as a
fundamental theological problem. Its goal is to contribute a
constructive pneumatological proposal for moving beyond this
impasse, based on the resources of the theology of Christoph
Friedrich Blumhardt (1842-1919). The disagreement is over the
question of unmediated experience of the Holy Spirit. Luther's
rejection of enthusiastic pneumatologies on the basis of a narrow
concept of the mediation of the Word and a pessimistic anthropology
became Protestant orthodoxy. In relation to classical
Protestantism, the primary theological distinctive of charismatic
theology is its strong affirmation of unmediated experience of the
Spirit in Christian life and worship. The Pentecostal movements
rapid growth in the past century has brought this difference to the
fore. Christoph Blumhardts theology, which integrates pessimistic
anthropology and unmediated experience, is well-suited to exploring
the impasse between the two theological traditions. "
This is a study on the pneumatology of the German theologian
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt. This book identifies the impasse
between classical Protestant and contemporary charismatic and
Pentecostal pneumatologies as a fundamental theological problem.
Its goal is to contribute a constructive pneumatological proposal
for moving beyond this impasse, based on the resources of the
theology of Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt (1842-1919). The
disagreement is over the question of unmediated experience of the
Holy Spirit. Luther's rejection of 'enthusiastic' pneumatologies on
the basis of a narrow concept of the mediation of the Word and a
pessimistic anthropology became Protestant orthodoxy. In relation
to classical Protestantism, the primary theological distinctive of
charismatic theology is its strong affirmation of unmediated
experience of the Spirit in Christian life and worship. The
Pentecostal movement's rapid growth in the past century has brought
this difference to the fore. Christoph Blumhardt's theology, which
integrates pessimistic anthropology and unmediated experience, is
well-suited to exploring the impasse between the two theological
traditions. "T&T Clark Studies in Systematic Theology" is a
series of monographs in the field of Christian doctrine, with a
particular focus on constructive engagement with major topics
through historical analysis or contemporary restatement.
