Theologians have long assumed that Karl Barth's doctrine of
election is supralapsarian. Challenging decades of scholarship,
Shao Kai Tseng argues that despite Barth's stated favor of
supralapsarianism, his mature lapsarian theology is complex and
dialectical, critically reappropriating both supra- and
infralapsarian patterns of thinking. Barth can be described as
basically infralapsarian because he sees the object of election as
fallen humankind and understands the incarnation as God's act of
taking on human nature in its condition of fallenness. In this New
Explorations in Theology volume, Tseng shows that most of Barth's
Reformed critics have not understood his doctrine of election
accurately enough to recognize his affinity to infralapsarianism
and, conversely, that most Barthians have not understood
Reformed-orthodox formulations of election with sufficient accuracy
in their disagreement with the tradition. Karl Barth's
Infralapsarian Theology offers a clear understanding of both the
historic Lapsarian Controversy and Barth's distinct form of
lapsarianism, providing a charitable dialogue partner to aid mutual
understanding between Barth and evangelicals. Featuring new
monographs with cutting-edge research, New Explorations in Theology
provides a platform for constructive, creative work in the areas of
systematic, historical, philosophical, biblical, and practical
theology.
