This book is the first of two volumes collecting together Michael C. Rea's most substantial work in analytic theology. This volume considers the nature of God and our ability to talk and discover truths about God, whereas the companion volume focuses on theological questions about humanity and the human condition. The chapters in the first part of Volume I explore issues pertaining to discourse about God and the authority of scripture. Part two focuses on divine attributes, while part three discusses doctrine of the trinity and related issues.
This volume investigates the fundamental nature of God and the epistemological limits of human discourse regarding divine attributes and scriptural authority. Michael C. Rea, a prominent philosopher of religion, compiles his significant contributions to the field of analytic theology to provide a rigorous framework for examining traditional religious doctrines. By applying the tools of analytic philosophy to theological inquiry, the author seeks to clarify the logical coherence of concepts such as divine nature and the Trinity.
