Divine Simplicity and the Triune Identity

There has been a recent revival of interest in the doctrine of divine simplicity in systematic and philosophical theology, following decades of intense reflection on the tri-personhood of the Christian God. While recent studies have produced a greater appreciation of patristic and scholastic theologies, they have not yet engaged in dialogue with proponents of the trinitarian revival that emerged in the latter half of the twentieth century in anything other than polemical terms. This book offers a theological defense of the doctrine of divine simplicity through careful reading of both exemplary historical theologians and Robert W. Jenson, an important American contributor to the trinitarian revival. After tracing continuities and discontinuities amongst select historical theologians, the book approaches Jenson with a multivalent account of divine simplicity. The result is a more nuanced interpretation of Jenson’s theology, an account of divine simplicity that responds to perceived problems, and new constructive proposals for divine simplicity in trinitarian theology.

What is the doctrine of the covenant of redemption? Why does John Gill (1697–1771), an English Baptist pastor and theologian, regard this doctrine as the kernel in his systematic theology? This book explicates how core theological doctrines in the Bible, e.g., the doctrine of God the Trinity, Christology, and soteriology, are integrated in the doctrine of the covenant of redemption from the biblical and theological perspective of John Gill. From his long pastoral experience and over fifty years of rich writing, Gill demonstrates that a careful investigation of the Bible and of God the Trinity makes him love the reality of the covenant of redemption in eternity, which is ultimately revealed by the gospel of Jesus Christ. Gill sees those who are in the gospel of Jesus Christ as the ones through whom the eternal reality of the covenant of redemption is manifested to the saved. Gill also encourages those who are in Christ to see the eternal reality of the covenant of redemption revealed by the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Triune Well-Being
Author: Jacqueline Service
language: en
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
Release Date: 2024-07-08
Synthesizing trajectories across Orthodox, Catholic, and Protestant theologies, Service explores the constitutive factors for an ontology of Triune well-being. Not merely of theoretical interest, the book presses a new trinitarian theology of 'kenotic-enrichment' as essential, not only for divine being, but for the well-being of humanity.
