Summary: | The third edition of Peters' systematic theology provides an opportunity to assess his contextual theology, descended from Tillich's 'method of correlation', from the perspective of my own textual theology, descended from Karl Barth's revelation theology, on the common ground of a shared Trinitarianism and positive retrieval of the twentieth-century's rediscovery of the New Testament eschatology. The article affirms Peters' sharply focused cognitive claim to truth about God as the world's future, but asks a series of questions about how this claim is actually sustained in Peters' capacious work. It concludes with the 'apocalyptic' judgement that Peters' 'progressive' method is not fully adequate to the challenge of our present spiritual situation. |
