Join Paul Helm, David Hunt, William Lane Craig and Gregory A. Boyd as they share four distinct views on the openness of God. Edited by James K. Beilby & Paul R. Eddy. schovat popis

James K. Beilby and Paul R. Eddy edit a collection of essays on four views of atonement: the healing view, the Christus Victor view, the kaleidoscopic view and the penal substitutionary view. This is a book that will help Christians understand the issues, grasp the differences and proceed toward a clearer articulation of their understanding of the atonement.

Focusing on John Hick's model of religious pluralism, the book critically examines his claim that all major religions offer equally valid interpretations of the ultimate Reality. It traces the evolution of Hick's pluralist view and assesses its strengths and weaknesses. The analysis concludes that Hick's model fails to address the significant challenge posed by the contradictory understandings of the divine among different faiths, ultimately jeopardizing his aims of establishing a strong religious realism and a neutral approach to pluralism.
