Description
The Revealed God, An Introduction to Biblical Classical TheismWhat role should philosophy play in shaping our understanding of the nature of God? Is there a basic agreement between Platos and Aristotles doctrine of God and the God of Scripture? Were the Scholastics wise in seeking to harmonize Platonism and Aristotelianism with Christianity? Is understanding the Scholastic heritage necessary in understanding the doctrine of God as expressed in the Protestant confessions of the sixteenth and seventeenth century?
What role should philosophy play in shaping our understanding of the nature of God? Is there a basic agreement between Plato’s and Aristotle’s doctrine of God and the God of Scripture? Were the Scholastics wise in seeking to harmonize Platonism and Aristotelianism with Christianity? Is understanding the Scholastic heritage necessary in understanding the doctrine of God as expressed in the Protestant confessions of the sixteenth and seventeenth century? The Revealed God answers these questions by showing how philosophy is in opposition to special revelation. Because philosophies of this world are not built on natural revelation, they do not share a common foundation with the Christian worldview. The various impersonal conceptions of God purported by classical, modern, and post-modern philosophy directly oppose the personal God of Scripture. Instead of borrowing from the spoils of pagan philosophy, Christians should reject philosophy and build their doctrine of God exclusively from divine revelation. If we want to know God, we must know the God of revelation!

‘Though this book deals throughout with highly philosophical concepts, the author is to be commended for writing in a simple style that makes these difficult matters much more accessible to the rest of us. This book argues that there is not a simple adoption by the Reformation of Thomas Aquinas’s melding of Philosophical and Biblical Classical Theism. I have for a long time thought that this is the case. Dr. Johnson’s book deserves more than a dismissive response. There will certainly be Reformed brothers who disagree. But this book needs to be answered and not merely dismissed.’ Dr. Sam Waldron Pastor, Grace Reformed Baptist Church, President, Covenant Baptist Theological Seminary & Author of A Man as Priest in His Home
