Doxological Theology: Karl Barth on Divine Providence, Evil, and the Angels de Dr Christopher C. Green

Doxological Theology: Karl Barth on Divine Providence, Evil, and the Angels: T&T Clark Studies in Systematic Theology

Autor Dr Christopher C. Green
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 mar 2013
In 1949, Karl Barth confidently upholds a high doctrine of divine providence, main-taining God's control of every event in history. His argument is at once cheerful, but also defiant in the face of a Europe that is war-weary and doubtful of the full sovereignty of God. Barth's movement to praise God shows his affin-ity for the Reformed theological tradition. While Barth often distances himself from his Calvinist predecessors in important ways, he sees his own view of providence to be a positive reworking of the Reformed position in order to maintain what he un-derstands as its most important insights: the praiseworthiness of the God of provi-dence and the doxology of the creature. Doxological Theology investigates how the theologian, in response to the praiseworthy God of the Reformed tradition, is ex-pected to pray his or her way through the doctrine of providence.

Recenzii

'Of the making of books about Barth's theology there appears to be noend. All credit to Christopher Green, then; for focusing on a relativelyunexplored corner of Barth's thought - his doctrine of providence - and fordoing it the way Barth does it, using the Lord's Prayer as an interpretiveframework. This is an exceptionally close reading of Barth's christologicalcorrection of a central pillar of Reformed theology.' - Kevin J. Vanhoozer, BlanchardProfessor of Theology, Wheaton College Graduate School, USA
'In this book Green offersa careful and insightful exploration of volume III/3 of Barth's /Church Dogmatics/ - one of the mostimportant yet one of the least investigated parts of Barth's corpus. Green'sexposition and analysis proceeds with both a deep sensitivity for the internalcoherence of the rather diverse topics covered in III/3 and a firm awareness ofthe broader content and form of Barth's theology. At times creative, at timescontroversial, Green is always engaging: this book isdestined to become a necessary conversation-point for any future work in thisresearch area.' - Paul T. Nimmo, The University of Edinburgh, UK.
Barth scholars will be engaged with Green's adjudication of the various related issues vis-à-vis the relevant secondary literature especially in the footnotes, while a range of other readers, from postliberals to evangelicals and even pentecostals, will appreciate the fundamentally performative theology of providence presented in this excellent first book.
Christopher Green has provided a lucid examination of Church Dogmatics III/3, showing how, for Barth, a commitment to belief in God's providence compels the human creature to pray for God's will to be done on earth as in heaven ... Green's study is articulate and well crafted, and is more an attentive and appreciative commentary than a critique (his critical comments surface mainly in footnotes and the concluding chapter). Comparison of Barth with other scholars on providence and evil should not be expected, for Green purposely wants to give ear to Barth's voice alone, and he does so admirably ... Throughout, Green expertly draws out the themes of prayer and praise as they shape Barth's engagement with and correction of the Reformed tradition ...DoxologicalTheologyis a masterly analysis of a challenging text.
