Life

Johann Georg Böse was born the son of the shopkeeper Paul Böse and his wife Eleonore and was baptized on June 28, 1662 in Oschatz. He attended a school in Schulpforte and studied at the University of Leipzig in order to take up a position as a representative deacon in Sorau in 1690 , after possibly staying briefly in Bautzen . In 1694 he was finally given the full deacon position. He died there on February 18, 1700.

He became known through the so-called terministic dispute; He assumed that the possibility of conversion is only possible up to a certain point in time. After this God-given point in time, evil should no longer be possible, according to the opinion. He became aware of terminism through Philipp Jacob Spener . After he had made known to this opinion, which he dedicated some initial thoughts at the age of 17 years in a font, the then switched Superintendent , the Count , the City Council , the Consistory and finally on November 20 nor the Lübbener upper consistory in order to deal with the view. So you got three reports. The first of the theological faculty of the University of Rostock decided against Böse's view on August 11, 1698, a second report, carried out by the city of Leipzig, initially assumed a neutral position, but after a third report a positive position for Böse. After his appointment as deacon, this dispute continued in Sorau, which eventually led to his being suspended from service in January 1700, one month before his death. Evil was pietistic .
