Zusatztext It is carefully and rigorously argued and a good example of an approach to theology which is published less often these days. Informationen zum Autor Stephen T. Davis is Russell K. Pitzer Professor of Philosophy, Claremont McKenna College, California. Klappentext Christian Philosophical Theology constitutes a Christian philosopher's look at various crucial topics in Christian theology, including belief in God, the nature of God, the Trinity, christology, the resurrection of Jesus, the general resurrection, redemption, and theological method. The book is tightly argued, and amounts to a coherent explanation of and case for the Christian world view. Although written from a broadly Reformed Protestant perspective, and although the author does not avoid controversial topics, his aim is to present a merely Christian' world view (to adapt slightly C. S. Lewis's famous term). That is, he attempts to write as much as possible from the perspective of the broad centre of Christian understanding. Zusammenfassung An explanation and defence of various crucial aspects of Christian theology, including why people don't believe in God, why people should believe in God, the nature of God, the Trinity, the person of Christ, the resurrection of Jesus, the resurrection of human beings, Christian redemption, and theological method.
