Outler, Albert C.  “A View of the Humanum in the Wesleyan Spirit.”  (Unpubl.)

Abstract

The human being is a creature of mystery and paradox, a finite yet self-transcendent being, whose existence involves the polarities of freedom and justice, curiosity and truth, love as transcendent and giving and love as self-concerned.  Being human is an adventure of faith amid the mystries of life and of death. [Bruce Epperly, 21 Nov. 1978]
