Useful discussion of various answers to theological questions that arise within American Christian Evangelicalism. ( ) I tend to approach my theology the same way that I approach my politics—both areas require thought that don't fall well into one camp or another. This book is an interesting look into varied theological beliefs shared by Christ followers from various backgrounds. The summaries are quite simplistic due to space allowed but they do generate thought. Most evangelicals will find the theological strand they follow and get an opportunity to read about, scoff at, and dismiss theological viewpoints of the less enlightened. It is a perfect book for those that want to broaden their understanding of their fellow believers, and also, for those looking to further alienate themselves from their redeemed siblings. Though I have only read a couple of the debates in this book, I absolutely love what it stands for. You think you're set in your ways and are not budging? Read Boyd's essays on certain topics. He provides a topic and there are essays on every view in the topic: such as the millenium (pre, post, or a) or salvation (free-will vs. predestination). Boyd doesn't pick a side but provides great arguments for all sides. I want to be an Arminiast and a Calvinist after reading this book! It goes to show you how non-dogmatic we should be when discussing certain theological issues with others (church people :-) ) Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
Evangelical thinkers in recent years have thrust differing and sometimes nontraditional views on the doctrine of God, the composition of the human person, and the nature of hell into the spotlight. Across the Spectrum, written by Bethel College theologians Gregory Boyd and Paul Eddy, offers a service to the church by carefully examining the various positions taken by evangelical scholars on eighteen seminal issues--both classic concerns and those of more contemporary interests. Rather than taking sides, however, the authors give readers the resources they need to make up their own minds. Among the many topics discussed are baptism, the nature of the self, the foreknowledge and providence of God, the interpretation of Genesis 1-2, the destiny of the unevangelized, and the nature of hell. In the spirit of the popular four-views books, Boyd and Eddy carefully lay out the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for each position and then discuss possible objections. Each chapter also includes a bibliography. A helpful appendix touches on nine additional issues. Across the Spectrum will surely be an indispensable resource for students, professors, pastors, and anyone who wants to make sense of the issues facing today's church.
