No One Like Him : The Doctrine of God

This book contains some rare combinations: first, an author who is as concerned with conceptual clarification as he is with the absolute truthfulness of the biblical text; second, an argument that avoids the common "either-ors" and contends for the importance of both divine sovereignty and divine solicitude in equal measure; third, an approach that espouses divine determinism and divine temporality.No One Like Himtakes on the most intractable intellectual challenges of contemporary evangelical theology. Kevin Vanhoozer, Research Professor of Systematic Theology, Trinity Evangelical Divinity SchoolJohn Feinberg judicially reconstructs aspects of the classical view of God in a way that proves more faithful than process and openness of God theisms. Arguably, this is the best study of theology proper in print. Bruce Demarest, Professor of Theology and Spiritual Formation, Denver SeminaryFeinberg reads theology with a philosopherrs"s eye and writes it with a philosopherrs"s sensitivity to illogic and incoherence. J. I. Packer, Professor of Theology, Regent CollegeA magisterial work, one that truly deserves to be called a magnum opushellip;.It reveals its author ashellip;perhaps the only modern scholar whose work, like that of Carl. F. H. Henry, can compare in size, detail, comprehensiveness, and intellectual acuity with the accomplishments of the late Karl Barthhellip;. It is not risky to predict that Feinbergrs"sNo One Like Himwill come to be a milestone in evangelical theology. Harold O. J. Brown, Professor of Philosophy and Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary
