The Certainty of Salvation in the Theology of Martin Chemnitz
Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht (Verlag)
9783525502068 (ISBN)
In his work Andreas Bergman delves into the depths of Martin Chemnitz's theological legacy, focusing on the often-neglected topic of the certainty of salvation. Through meticulous analysis and nuanced interpretation, Bergman uncovers the intricate intellectual and affective dimensions of Chemnitz's thought, exploring its implications for justification, predestination, and the broader theological landscape. By illuminating the tensions and paradoxes inherent in Chemnitz's theology, Bergman challenges readers to reevaluate fundamental assumptions about faith and salvation. Accessible yet scholarly, this monograph offers a valuable resource for academics, clergy, and lay readers seeking to deepen their understanding of Lutheran theology and its relevance for contemporary faith practice.
Andreas Bergman graduated as a Doctor of Theology from the University of Helsinki in 2023. His scholarly work includes publications on Chemnitz's critique of the Second Council of Nicaea and his theology of worship. His academic career has primarily focused on Chemnitz, but he has also conducted research on patristics, Maximus the Confessor, and John Damascene. He serves on the board of the Finnish Patristic Society and is a member of the editorial board of Ortodoksia, a Finnish academic journal of Orthodox theology.
