God of Salvation

Soteriology in Theological Perspective
Herausgeber: Davidson, Ivor J

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

God of Salvation explores a vital yet often neglected aspect of Christian confession - the essential relationship between the nature of salvation and the character of the God who saves. This book offers fresh appraisals of a range of major themes in theology: the nature of creaturely existence; the relationship between divine purposes and material history; the holiness, love and judgement of God; the atoning work of Jesus Christ; election, justification and the nature of faith; salvation outside the church; human and non-human ends; the nature of eschatological fellowship with God.
