The Pietist Theologians An Introduction to Theology in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries

---

Why include a volume on Pietist theologians in a series on major theologians in Christian history? Was not Pietism precisely a movement that criticized academic theology as a religion of the head in contrast to a religion of the heart? To paraphrase Tertullian, what does Wittenberg “the undisputed citadel of extreme Lutheran orthodoxy”1 (or any other citadel of academic theology) have to do with Jerusalem? Does not talk about God displace the walk with God? After all, as Gottfried Arnold notoriously emphasized in his “impartial” history (Unparteiischen Kirchen- und Ketzerhistorie, 1699/1700) intellectually sophisticated theologians are not necessarily paragons of the Christian life, whereas so-called heretics may be true saints. Does not heart religion always trump head religion?
