This is the long-awaited 3rd edition of God's Strategy in Human History by Roger Forster & Paul Marston - one of the most influential theology books of the 20th century. Volume 2: Reconsidering Key Biblical Ideas builds on and reinforces a number of the key concepts in volume 1. We see how many of the traditionalist meanings given to them are based on imported human philosophy, and not 1st century understandings. These include: - God’s will, plans and sovereignty and man’s freewill - Justification and righteousness - God’s election and foreknowledge - Works and faithfulness - The hardening of Pharaoh’s heart and unbelief The last chapter brings together some of the wildly unbiblical teachings of Augustine of Hippo, a man whose theological influence remains huge even today. This volume can either be read alongside Volume 1 or individually to explore particular topics in more depth.
