If God is all-knowing and all-powerful, can he in any way be
vulnerable to his creation? Can God be in control of anything at
all if he is not constantly in control of everything? John Sanders
says yes to both of these questions. InThe God Who Risks, he mounts
a careful and challenging argument for positive answers to both of
these profound theological questions. In this thoroughly revised
edition, Sanders clarifies his position and responds to his
critics. His book will not only contribute to serious ongoing
theological discussion but will enlighten pastors and laypersons
who struggle with questions about suffering, evil and human free
will.
This book attempts to determine the origins of tenure per baroniam
and the reasons for the distinction made, at the time of King John,
between barones and the tenants-in-chief.
Voted one of Christianity Today's Books of the Year What is the
fate of those who die never hearing the gospel? Do Hindus, Jews,
agnostics and others who do not profess faith in Christ really
suffer damnation after death? These and similar questions have long
been contemplated by people from every religious persuasion and
every walk of life. But in a culture of increasing diversity and
growing doubt in the existence of "objective truth," it seems ever
more pressing. In this Spectrum Multiview volume three scholars
present the span of evangelical conviction on the destiny of the
unevangelized. Ronald Nash argues the restrictivist position, that
receptive knowledge of Jesus Christ in this life is necessary to
salvation. Gabriel Fackre advocates divine perseverance, with the
expectation that those who die unevangelized receive an opportunity
for salvation after death. And John Sanders sets forth the
inclusivist case-asserting that though God saves people only
through the work of Jesus Christ, some may be saved even if they do
not know about Christ. As each scholar presents his own case and
responds to strengths and weaknesses of differing positions,
readers are treated to a lively and informative debate. What About
Those Who Have Never Heard? is a truly helpful book on one of
today's-and every day's-most crucial questions. Spectrum Multiview
Books offer a range of viewpoints on contested topics within
Christianity, giving contributors the opportunity to present their
position and also respond to others in this dynamic publishing
format.
The Bible resounds with affirmations of the faithfulness and
trustworthiness of God. But might God also exhibit faith and trust?
Standing in the tradition of theologians such as John Sanders, who
argued that God is one who risks, Wm. Curtis Holtzen contends that
God is not merely trustworthy or faithful, but that God is also one
who trusts and has faith. According to Holtzen, because God is a
being of relational love and exists in relationship with humans,
who can freely choose to follow God, then God is a God who trusts.
Such an argument might challenge our notion of who God is, yet
Holtzen argues that understanding the relationship between divine
trust and human faith can give us a fuller, truer picture of who
God is and who we are.
