How can we understand God's revelation to us? Throughout the
church's history, theologians have often answered this question by
appealing to a doctrine of illumination whereby the Holy Spirit
shapes our knowledge and understanding of Scripture. Without
denying the role of the Holy Spirit or the cognitive role of
illumination, Ike Miller casts a broader vision of divine
illumination and its role in the Christian life. In his
constructive approach, Miller argues for a fully trinitarian view
of illumination that forms not just our intellect, but also appeals
to the affections and encourages our ethical action. In order to
develop this theology of illumination, Miller explores both
Augustine's and Karl Barth's readings of the Gospel and Epistles of
John, including Barth's previously untranslated lectures on the
Gospel of John. In the light of his careful study of both the
Johannine literature and the theologies of two giants from
Christian history, Miller contends for a doctrine of illumination
whereby we are enabled to know God and participate in Christ by the
power of the Holy Spirit.
