College. Theology In his book Introduction to christian theology, Wiley argues for the Arminian views of unlimited atonement, conditional election and prevenient grace in opposition to the main points of Calvinism. In Christian theology, he stresses that the prevenient grace, operates in a continuous way from "the first dawn of the moral life". This would allow a synergistic co-operation with the human will, that doesn't undermine the responsibility and the total depravity of man. Wayne Grudem considers this work to be the best Arminian systematic theology from the twentieth century, but not reaching to the level of John Miley’s. Wiley hold to the governmental theory of atonement. Memorial/legacy Orton died of cancer in his residence in Pasadena the 22nd August 1961. The H. Orton Wiley House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in part for its association with Wiley.
