The Holiness of God (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Markus Holmbom | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Many theologians have recognized that divine holiness stands at the very center of Scripture, yet there remains little agreement on how it should be understood. In his book Markus Holmbom offers an in-depth theological retrieval of Stephen Charnock's doctrine of divine holiness and argues that holiness is not merely one divine attribute among others, but the key to understanding the unity, beauty, and integrity of all God's attributes. Drawing on biblical exegesis, historical theology, and systematic reflection, the study develops Charnock's insights in dialogue with contemporary discussions of divine simplicity, providence, and the problem of evil. It presents a constructive account of how God's holiness relates to justice, mercy, wisdom, and love, while also offering a fresh approach to questions concerning God's relation to evil and suffering. By bringing together Puritan theology and contemporary debates, Holmbom demonstrates the enduring significance of divine holiness for Christian doctrine today.
