emphasis on the gradual growth of faith, sanctification and the christian perfection? How can be understood the theological position of John Wesley in the antinomian conflicts with the Moravians in the "Fatter Lane Society" and his ciritique on M. Luther's "Kommentar zum Galaterbrief"? What is the real meaning of the influences of a Moravian missionary Peter Bohler for John Wesley's conversion? What is the reason for his conclusive breaking with N.L. von Zinzendorf and his brethren, by whom he was at first deeply impressed. Is he turned from the Aldersgate-experience, that is, the principle of the reformative justification(die reformatorische Rechtfertigungslehre), that he has received through the preface to the Roman epistle written by M. Luther? How can be explained the continuity and discontinuity of Wesley's theological position before and after Aldersgate? What ist the relation between "Law' and "Gospel", "justification" and "sanctification" for John Wesley?
The purpose of this paper is to answer those questions with consistency and coherently from a standpoint of his M. Luther-reception. John Wesley's contact with M. Luther was made through the mediation of the german lutheran pietism, to be exact, two different types of lutheran pietism, "the Halle-Pietism(der hallische Pietismus)" and "the Moravian Brethren(das Herrnhutertum)". At first, John Wesley seems to be influenced by the Moravians who him deeply impressed at stormy seas during the journey to North America. Through the contact with a Moravian missionary Peter Bohler after the return to London, John Wesley began to reconsider the salvation only through faith and finally experienced that at Aldersgate. But it must not be identified either with the Moravian understanding of the justification or with that of lutheran orthodoxy. Rather, John Wesley's conversion and his understanding of faith and justification is similar to those of August Hermann Francke and his Halle-Pietism that stand theologically in sharp contrast to the Moravian Brethren.
Through the antinomian conflict with the Moravian Brethren in "Fetter Lane Society", John Wesley recognized clearly the theological distinction between him and the Moravian Brethren that resulted from the different understanding of "Law(Works)" and "Gospel(Faith)". He confirm the validity of "Law" after the justification (conversion) for the growth of faith. He has already attained this conception at Aldersgate that was expressed in his thought of "degrees of faith" and "growth of faith". For John Wesley are the conversion in the process of his own spiritual development. He made clearer his position on this matter in the theological dispute with Zinzendorf over the relation between justification and sanctification. He emphasized not only the validity of "Law", but also the growth of faith and the sanctification after justification. Here can one perceive the charateristics of John Wesley's Luther-reception that is close to the Halle- Pietism.
