The Storms of Providence

Navigating the Waters of Calvinism, Arminianism, and Open Theism

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The Storms of Providence surveys and critiques Calvinism, Arminianism, and Open Theism as models of the divine-world relationship. Further, the book defends a modified version of traditional Arminianism. The author contends that the most theologically and philosophically sound model of the divine-world relationship is one that affirms that human actions are free and not divinely determined, even while asserting that God has complete knowledge of the future.
