Description

Two years after his acclaimed biography of Karl Barth–Karl Barth: His Life from Letters and Autobiographical Texts–was once translated into English and published, Eberhard Busch due to this fact published a key volume on Barth’s relationship to Pietism. Until now, then again, Karl Barth und die Pietisten was once not translated into English. Consideration of this important exchange illuminates and puts into viewpoint emerging themes vital to Barth’s thought as he developed them all over his theological works. Both Barth’s affinity to Pietism and his critique of the movement make clear his interaction with the English-speaking evangelical world whose theology was once significantly shaped by the Pietist movement. The various issues dealt with in this volume are the focal point of intense debate at the up to date American scene. Three key questions are addressed: the nature of scriptural authority, hell and universalism, and the relationship between believers and unbelievers. Other topics include the place of our experience in salvation, the preaching of repentance, the nature of conversion and the relationship between law and gospel. This work, translated by Daniel W. Bloesch, will make a significant contribution to Barth scholarship and to the ongoing discussion of Barth’s theology especially among evangelicals and others who share in the Pietistic theological heritage.
