商品簡介
Voetius, Mastricht and Driessen were from successive generations, representing almost 200 years of thought about theological and philosophical issues that were tearing their world apart. Goudriaan (philosophy, Erasmus U.) reconstructs the views of these three leading lights of the Reformed tradition, setting their arguments in context and comparing their ideas on such issues as holy scripture, human reason, natural theology, creation, Mosaic physics, Copernicus, divine accommodation, the providence of God, secondary causality, the human being, the soul and the body, special status, conscience, and theological and political aspects of divine and natural law. Goudriaan's conclusions are particular interesting as they reflect the ongoing differences in political alignments and in theology, the concepts of development and identity, and the priority of Christian doctrine.
