Doctrina Metodista: Los Fundamentos = Methodist Doctrine

By Ted A. Campbell

Book Overview

John Wesley distinguished between essential doctrines on which agreement or consensus is critical and opinions about theology or church practices on which disagreement must be allowed. Though today few people join churches based on doctrinal commitments, once a person has joined a church it becomes important to know the historic teachings of that church's tradition. In Methodist Doctrine: The Essentials, Ted Campbell outlines historical doctrinal consensus in American Episcopal Methodist Churches in a comparative and ecumenical dialogue with the doctrinal inheritance of other major families of Christian tradition. In this way, the book shows both what Methodist churches historically teach in common with ecumenical Christianity and what is distinctive about the Methodist tradition in its various contemporary forms. Documents examined include The Twenty-Five Articles of Religion, The General Rules, Wesley's Standard Sermons and Explanatory Notes upon the New Testament, The Methodist Social Creed, and the Apostles' Creed. En este libro conciso y sencillo, Ted Campbell nos da un breve resumen de las doctrinas m?s importantes que la familia de denominaciones wesleyanas comparten. Escrito con un lenguaje conciso y directo, Campbell estructura el material en categor?as sistem?ticas: la doctrina de la revelaci?n, la doctrina de Dios, la doctrina de Cristo, la doctrina del Esp?ritu, la doctrina de la humanidad, la doctrina del "camino de la salvaci?n" (conversi?n/justificaci?n/santificaci?n), la doctrina de la iglesia y los medios de gracia y la doctrina de lo por venir.
