Bøker i Routledge Studies in Analytic and Systematic Theology-serien

In Christian theology, the teaching that Christ possessed both a human and divine will is central to the doctrine of two natures, but it also represents a logical paradox, raising questions about how a person can be both impeccable and subject to temptation. This volume explores these questions through an analytic theology approach.

Free will is a perennial theological and philosophical topic. As a central dogmatic locus, it is implicated in discussions around core Christian doctrines such as grace, salvation, sin, providence, evil and predestination.

Forsaking the Fall argues that the doctrines of the Fall and Original Sin need not be understood as integral components of orthodox Christianity. Innovative and provocative, it will be of interest to scholars of theology and philosophy, specifically analytic theologians and philosophers of religion.
