{"product_id":"the-trinity-in-asian-perspective-9780687426379","title":"The Trinity in Asian Perspective","description":"Western Christians often despair of finding meaning in the paradoxical statement that God is both One and Three. The problem, says Jung Young Lee, is not with the doctrine of the Trinity itself; rather, it is with the Western conceptual tendency to view reality in exclusive, either\/or terms. The Trinity is at its heart an inclusive doctrine of one God who is nonetheless three distinct persons. In order to grasp this fact, we need different conceptual categories, not only with which to view God, but all of reality. The Asian philosophical construct of yin and yang can offer a way out of this problem, with its inherently both\/and way of thinking. Drawing on a variety of East Asian religious traditions, Lee offers a creative reinterpretation of this central Christian doctrine. He shows how a global perspective can illuminate Western theological constructs as he establishes the necessity of a contextual approach to the doctrine of the Trinity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jung Young Lee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Abingdon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.12w x 0.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780687426379\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eLee, Jung Young:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Jung Young Lee was at the time of his death Professor of Systematic Theology, Drew Theological Seminary, Madison, New Jersey.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abingdon Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":41100216729715,"sku":"9.78069E+12","price":32.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_b34ca262-b1b3-4675-940e-4b96209bad2d.jpg?v=1700144377","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/the-trinity-in-asian-perspective-9780687426379","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
