Summary, etc. This research seeks to determine how a recovery of Wesley’s theological concept of the political image of God can provide a model for Wesleyan political discourse within the Ghanaian context. To accomplish this task, a modified evangelical systematic theological research model is utilised. First, an in-depth literature review investigates the current state of scholarship regarding Wesley’s notion of the political image of God. The literature review reveals several gaps in current scholarship. No substantial survey in any context was found regarding recovery of the notion of political image with a view towards formulating a Wesleyan theology of politics for political engagement, thus validating the need for this research. Second, the biblical and theological foundations needed to critique and assess Wesley’s theological notion of the political image are explored. In particular, the key biblical texts which provide the theological basis for the doctrine of the image of God reanalysed bring out the biblical and theological views on the image of God. Third, Wesley’s theological concept of the political image of God is analysed within the biblical and theological doctrine of the image of God. This analysis locates and establishes the concept of the political image within the scriptures and theology. Fourth, the political image of God is examined within the context of grace as delineated by Wesley in his order or way of salvation, with a view towards its recovery and renewal. This makes for the critical analysis of the order of salvation, and the harmonisation of the results with the tenets of the political image of God. Fifth, a Wesleyan theology of politics is formulated by bringing together the different and significant ideas and perspectives which have been found in the research thus far. These are then moulded into a single, systematic and coherent whole. Sixth, the major implications of a Wesleyan theology of politics for the Ghanaian context are suggested. Here, practical recommendations are offered as correctives and also contributions towards enhancing the Ghanaian political and governance process. Finally, a summary of the research findings, recommendations for further study and the contribution of this research to the field of systematic theology are offered.
