One God, Three Persons, Four Views: A Biblical, Theological, and Philosophical Dialogue on the Doctrine of the Trinity
Ebook
Overview
The doctrine of the Trinity has become synonymous with mystery in the minds of many. How is it best understood? Is it logically coherent, or is it contradictory? In this book, four leading scholars take up these and other questions about the Trinity in a multidisciplinary approach spanning biblical studies, historical theology, and philosophy. Each puts forth his own view, then in turn defends it from critiques. The result is a wide-ranging, in-depth but accessible look at the doctrinal heart of the Christian faith.
There’s a forceful, careful dispute underway in the pages of this book about the philosophy and theology of the Trinity, as well as its biblical justification (or lack thereof); the reader is privileged to be able to observe it.
——Timothy J. Pawl, professor of philosophy, University of St. Thomas
This marvelous book brings together four well-known thinkers writing in the field of analytic theology to debate about the doctrine of the Trinity. The scholars work very different theological and ecclesial traditions, from Unitarian to Greek Orthodox, and the resulting debate is highly engaging. I learned a great deal from these essays, and the whole book is highly recommended.
——Richard Cross, professor of philosophy, University of Notre Dame
