Fullness Received and Returned  (English, Paperback, Tan Seng-Kong)

Seng-Kong Tan argues that human participation in the divine - a classical theological axiom most notably associated with the Eastern Orthodox tradition - is a central theme in the theology of Jonathan Edwards. This notion, Tan contends, is found in the Trinitarian self-giving and self-communication of God and actualized in the historical event of the incarnation. As such, it is a defining motif for the entire systematic sweep of Edwards' theology, which Tan utilizes to focus and unpack the contours of Edwards' theology. Fullness Received and Returned situates Edwards' thought within the folds of the classical theological tradition, while arguing that Edwards' is a unique and creative form of Reformed theology.
