Description
Summary:Tokutaro Takakura (高倉徳太郎, 1885-1934) was a prominent leader of Japanese Protestant Christianity from the 1920s to 1930s. His active years were short, but his influence on younger generation was great.

In this paper, I will examine Takakura’s theology and its relation to Jonathan Edwards.
