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.
Seng-Kong Tan recently earned a PhD in systematic theology. This volume is a revision of a dissertation completed at Princeton Theological Seminary under the supervision of George Hunsinger
"Seng-Kong Tan offers a comprehensive examination of Jonathan Edwards's conception of human participation in the life of God - and in the process, a new way of appreciating both the originality and the deep rootedness in tradition of America's greatest theologian." William Stacy Johnson Princeton Theological Seminary
