This Element defends a version of the classical theory of divine
ideas, the containment exemplarist theory of divine ideas. The
classical theory holds that God has ideas of all possible
creatures, that these ideas partially explain why God's creation of
the world is a rational and free personal action, and that God does
not depend on anything external to himself for having the ideas he
has. The containment exemplarist version of the classical theory
holds that God's own nature is the exemplar of all possible
creatures, and therefore that God's ideas of possible creatures are
in some sense ideas of himself. Containment exemplarism offers a
monotheism fit for metaphysics, insofar as it is coherent, simple,
and explanatorily powerful; and offers a metaphysics fit for
monotheism, insofar as it leaves God truly worthy of the
unconditional worship which Christians, along with Jews and
Muslims, aspire to offer to God.
This collection of literature attempts to compile many of the
classic, timeless works that have stood the test of time and offer
them at a reduced, affordable price, in an attractive volume so
that everyone can enjoy them.
