This book explores John Webster’s contribution to one of the most important and contested topics in Christian theology: the relationship between divine and human agency. By examining the theme of moral ontology in Webster’s constructive dogmatics, this work sheds light on his contribution to this crucial subject.Jones achieves this through close study of Webster texts ranging from his early, middle and late periods. He reveals that Webster’s moral ontology is not only a major theme in his thought but is among his most significant contributions to contemporary systematic and moral theology. As the first book-length study of a central theme in Webster’s ethics, this text will be of interest to Webster scholars and those teaching courses in late modern systematic theology and theological ethics.

This illuminating volume from Jeremy Jones offers the first detailed examination of the moral ontology of John Webster. By locating this firmly within the framework of Webster’s dogmatic theology, and by offering both diachronic and dialogical analyses, Jones brings new light to the contours and material of Webster’s ethical project. There is much here to admire and to appreciate, both for readers familiar with Webster and for those new to his work.
