Theological Antinomy

Description

Scripture's teaching on the Incarnation, the Trinity, divine sovereignty with human responsibility, and the problem of evil lead to irresolvable tensions or paradoxes. In the process of building a biblical theology of paradox, Theological Antinomy carefully assesses the biblical passages for whether they truly contain tensions and if any of the resolutions that have been suggested are sufficient. Joel Arnold suggests a model for how conservative interpreters can proceed through the theological process without distorting the exegetical information or abandoning logical consistency. The book concludes with a rigorous, critical examination of Open Theism and its handling of theological paradox. Theological Antinomy drives the reader back to the biblical text, compels self-conscious analysis theology, and provokes awe at the rich complexity of biblical revelation.
