First published in 1934. Hardback: No DJ 'as issued'. Robert Newton Flew (18861962) was an English Methodist minister and theologian, and an advocate of ecumenism among the Christian churches. Flew married in July 1921 Winifred Garrard (18871982), a Wesleyan Methodist teacher their son Antony Garrard Newton Flew (19232010) was to become a prominent philosopher.[5] He spent the next six years in a circuit ministry in London, where he built up strong ecumenical relations. His friendship with the Austrian Catholic theologian Baron von Hügel led him to closer study of spirituality, resulting in a book, The Idea of Perfection in Christian Theology (1934), which remained in print for many years. For this he was awarded a doctorate of divinity by the University of Oxford, the first ever for a non-Anglican. a comprehensive interpretation of Christian ethics as promulgated by Jesus, right on down through those whom Flew subsequently identifies as the most significant Christian thinkers of the last two thousand years."[7] It shows Flew to be one of several Methodist theologians in the mid-20th century to have become critical of the ideas of John Wesley on sinlessness and purity of intention: "Flew critiques Wesley's attitude to sin as offering only an inadequate account of moral evil," so that he can "posit an over-optimistic instantaneous end to the effects of sin. The result of these problems is an 'intramundane asceticism', whereby the one assured of sanctification merely endures secular life, allowing a barrier to exist between one's work and worship".The Idea of Perfection in Christian Theology (1934) is a meticulous piece of scholarship on a theme dear to Methodist hearts.
