Faced with the relative neglect of metaphysics within the Pentecostal tradition, Ray Robles offers an in-depth and theologically astute corrective. Deeply grounded in Christian tradition, Theological Metaphysics draws from a wide range of sources, while engaging in spirited dialogue especially with Amos Yong's emergence theory. The result is a well-constructed plea for a traditional participatory or sacramental ontology that does justice to the Pentecostal experience. This book is a treasure trove, not just for Pentecostals but for anyone asking how it is that we may speak about the triune God's enchantment of a Spirit-filled world.

Reality is… What exactly? Ray Robles in this important study disentangles the strands within reality inhabited by Pentecostals. The reader is rewarded by an intellectual journey of fascinating philosophical twists and turns, some ecumenical, some spiritual and historical and some purely theological. Fasten your seat belts!

Ray C. Robles has written a significant work on theological metaphysics from a pentecostal perspective. He presents a trinitarian, eschatologically oriented, radically open, and re-enchanted creational metaphysics. Robles does so by interacting with pentecostal theology, the Church Fathers, Aquinas, and some modern philosophical theologians. He also presents an illustrative pentecostal liturgy that flows from his metaphysical vision and thus grounds the more abstract discussion in the worshiping community. This book makes an important contribution to Christian metaphysics and pentecostal philosophical theology.

By making the resurrection of Jesus the key pneumatological event, Robles makes the bold move of prioritizing eschatology in his theology of creation, thereby overcoming a dualism between the natural and the supernatural. He offers Pentecostals a fruitful path for addressing the question of metaphysics. An important step forward for Pentecostal theology.

Robles' book sets forth timely trajectories enjoining further exploration into the promise of Pentecostalism towards a 21st-century Christian metaphysical vision.
