Freedom, Necessity, and the Knowledge of God in Conversation with Karl Barth and Thomas F. Torrance

"Paul D. Molnar discusses issues related to the concepts of freedom and necessity in trinitarian doctrine. He also explores Catholic and Protestant relations by comparing the views of Elizabeth Johnson, Walter Kasper and Karl Barth, as well as relations among Christians, Jews and Muslims by considering whether it is appropriate to claim that all three religions should be understood to be united under the concept of monotheism. He examines current debates concerning Thomas F. Torrance's thinking on natural theology, and what he called a "new" natural theology. Additionally, Molnar discusses the problem of universalism in contemporary theology, focusing on Torrance's views together with some recent discussion by David Bentley Hart, as well as Torrance's view of non-conceptual knowledge of God by comparing his thinking with the views of Karl Rahner. Molnar considers a number of topics - election, natural theology, liberation theology and universalism - that stimulate discussion in the field today"
