520 _aDuring the last forty years, a considerable amount of scholarly attention has been given to John Wesley's way of doing theology. There is extensive debate within Wesleyan circles (particularly in North America) regarding the conception and utility of his theological method, usually identified as the Wesleyan quadrilateral (Scripture, reason, tradition, and experience). Many claim it is a unique and fruitful model, with an invaluable application for the church today. In this book, Wesley's theological methodology is uncovered from the perspective of his holistic vision of the God-human relationship being centered in love and defined by the qualities of trust and passion, rather than an intellectual comprehension of propositional truths about God.
