  • The Revealed God (Jeffrey D. Johnson)

    What role should philosophy play in shaping our understanding of the nature of God? Is there a basic agreement between Plato’s and Aristotle’s doctrine of God and the God of Scripture? Were the Scholastics wise in seeking to harmonize Platonism and Aristotelianism with Christianity? Is understanding the Scholastic heritage necessary in understanding the doctrine of God as expressed in the Protestant confessions of the sixteenth and seventeenth century? The Revealed God answers these questions by showing how philosophy is in opposition to special revelation. Because philosophies of this world are not built on natural revelation, they do not share a common foundation with the Christian worldview. The various impersonal conceptions of God purported by classical, modern, and post-modern philosophy directly oppose the personal God of Scripture. Instead of borrowing from the spoils of pagan philosophy, Christians should reject philosophy and build their doctrine of God exclusively from divine revelation. If we want to know God, we must know the God of revelation!

  • All That Is in God (James E. Dolezal)

    Unknown to many, increasing numbers of conservative evangelicals are denying basic tenets of classical Christian teaching about God, with departures occurring even among those of the Calvinistic persuasion. James E. Dolezal’s All That Is in God provides an exposition of the historic Christian position while engaging with these contemporary deviations.

    His convincing critique of the newer position he styles “theistic mutualism” is philosophically robust, systematically nuanced, and biblically based. It demonstrates the need to maintain the traditional viewpoint, particularly on divine simplicity, and spotlights the unfortunate implications for other important Christian doctrines—such as divine eternality and the Trinity—if it were to be abandoned. Arguing carefully and cogently that “all that is in God is God Himself,” the work is sure to stimulate debate on the issue in years to come.
