Features: Anyone who adopts the modern historical perspective is bound to conclude that the historical relevance of faith should be preserved, but it must be articulated in new ways. If the theology that can encompass the knowledge progress of the era can be regarded as a significant advancement in modern theological thought, Troeltsch's theological thought must be considered an important expansion of modern theological thought. It not only provides a robust theological response to the intellectual challenges of modern historical studies but also participates in the construction of social theory as a theory of modernity, developing a theological theory with a consciousness of social and historical theory issues. This book collects 11 articles on Christian theory and modern studies, including "The Nature of the Modern Spirit," "Modernism," "The Transcendental Problem of Religious Feeling," "Basic Concepts of Christian Theory," and others.
