An almost perfect theology if it wasn't for the author's implicit commitment to universalism. Although he does not have a chapter entitled, "universalism: God saves us all," he could well have had. It comes through in to many places. Despite this glaring flaw, I enjoyed this book immensely as it is in a vein that seeks to restore the majesty of God in a day when man is at the center once more. You get a sense of an accomplished theologian presenting the Bible, historical insight and sane synthesis in the emerging sections. Indeed, Great is the Lord.

In keeping with the classic Christian tradition, Great Is the Lord sets out the doctrine of God in a way that illumines the mind, moves the heart, and stirs the soul to praise the triune God. Ron Highfield introduces students, ministers, and others to the "traditional" doctrine of God held by the majority of the church from the second to the twentieth century: God is triune, loving, merciful, gracious, patient, wise, one, simple, omnipotent, omniscient, eternal, omnipresent, immutable, impassible, and glorious. Irenically challenging open theism and process theology, Highfield shows that the classical doctrine of God actually preserves our confidence in God's love and his liberating action better than its opponents do. This traditional doctrine, Highfield argues, grounds our dignity and freedom in the center of reality, the trinitarian life of God. Highfield's work maintains the highest intellectual standards throughout even as it offers a true theology for the praise of God. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
