Origem e relevância da filosofia da ideia cosmonômica no presbiterianismo mexicano

Abstract

The Philosophy of the Cosmonomic Idea has its origin in the reflection of various Dutch theologians and philosophers at the end of the 19th century and in the first half of the 20th century, whose principle is found in the relationship of Christianity in its integral sense, with the different areas action of social life. He maintains that the Protestant Reformation movement cannot be limited to the ecclesiastical sphere and theological development, but, because of its foundation in the Scriptures, impacts the whole of life. In such a way that, it was necessary to develop a Christian philosophy that would provide the foundations for a complete understanding of reality, while allowing the development of prolegomena for theology, as well as for all scientific disciplines. Due to its reformed tradition, the Philosophy of the Cosmonomic Idea has been disseminated and debated in the different Presbyterian denominations of Latin America.
