  • The Social Soteriology of John Wesley and Its Communitarian, Arminian and Public Elements
    The social soteriology of John Wesley and its comuni- tarian, arminian and public elements: comments on its development, purpose, inspirations, and spirituality Helmut Renders 1 The intention of using the term social soteriology is an attempt to combine a common concept in Wesleyan studies – that John Wesley is best understood as primarily con- cerned with soteriology – with a fresh look at the wide range of the meaning of the word “social”. This is done because the major agreement regarding the centrality of soteriology in Wesley has been unable to relate the different perspectives toward a united effort to promote and proclaim salvation in an integral way. Without a doubt, for many the use of the adjective “social” may simply indicate that the author of this article is putting empha- sis on diacony or public religion. Although the word “social” includes these meanings, it is much richer than this and has been used in Wesleyan and Methodist history in different moments to mark a certain type of Wesleyan imagery.2 As such, it seems appropriate to rethink this tradition and offer a re-reading of those aspects that we can easily combine with the metaphor of “social” and study their contributions to Wesleyan soteriology. 3 To do so, we shall challenge some customary reading of Wesleyan, in the first place, the popular biographic method of periodization which emerges more from a type of bio- graphic reinterpretation and reconfirmation of contemporary theologies than from a his- toric hermeneutic. Differently we shall re-link certain periods of his life by its under- standing as sedimentation of experience as a more appropriate way to understand the con- tinuous construction of Wesleyan soteriology as social soteriology.

These types Tretain their characteristics to this day, perhaps, largely, because groups of relatives friends and neighbors settled in one section and gave a dominant tinge in creed, church and custom. The sons and daughters of these families married, and creed and custom grew stronger from year to year. Thus the Scotch-Irish, a people of Scotch origin, though living in Ireland for many years before the American emigration, settled in many parts of Virginia, North and South Carolina, and what is now East Tennessee, in great numbers and impressed their Presbyterian faith upon their posterity.

Beacon of Hope in the ways dreary lighted; Pride of our hearts that are loyal and true; From those who adore unto one who adores us— Mother of Mothers, we sing unto you. We, with our faces turned high to the Eastward Proud of our place in the vanguard of Truth, Will sing unto thee a new song of thanksgiving— Honor to God and the Springtime of Youth. Shout for the victory or tear for the vanquished; Sunshine or tempest thy heart is e’er true; Pride of the hills and the white-laden Lowlands— Mother of Mothers, we kneel unto you. Ever the Legions of Sin will assail us, Even the Battle in Cities afar; Still in the depth will thy Spirit eternal Beckon us on like a piloting Star. Down the dim years do thy dead children call thee, Wafted to sleep while the Springtime was new; We, of the Present, thy Hope of the Future— Mother of Mothers, we pray unto you. 2 3 Contents: Commencement Program – 4 The Academic Procession – 5 The Official Party – 6 University Traditions and Academic Regalia – 7 Degree Candidates – 10 Past Honorary Degree Recipients – 47 Board of Trustees – 49 Colleges: Graduate School and International Education – 9 School of Law – 19 Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences – 21 Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design – 25 J.
