Today’s free book is P T Forsyth’s World War I lecture series on Christian Theodicy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In his Christian Theology: An Introduction<\/em>, Alister E. McGrath<\/a> describes Forsyth’s Justification of God<\/em> (1916). The book<\/p>\n\n\n\n

represents an impassioned plea to allow the notion of the \u201cjustice of God\u201d to be rediscovered. Forsyth is less concerned than Anselm for the legal and juridical aspects of the cross; his interest centers on the manner in which the cross is inextricably linked with \u201cthe whole moral fabric and movement of the universe.\u201d The doctrine of the atonement is inseparable from \u201cthe rightness of things.\u201d<\/p>Wikipedia<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
