Abstract
"It may fairly be said that, in a sense, John Feinberg has been working on and toward No One Like Him for over twenty-five years. His doctoral dissertation for the University of Chicago department of philosophy, “Theologies and Evil” (subsequently published under that same title) wrestled with the question of God in the face of seemingly staggering counter evidence (cf. a later edition, The Many Faces of Evil ). What Feinberg has at last produced is indeed a magisterial and magnificent magnum opus which purposes to restate, reformulate, or reconceptualize the doctrine of God for evangelical/ Protestant orthodox theology in light of contemporary cultural, philosophical and theological trends, issues and concerns about how we are to understand God and God’s relationship to us in the world. Additionally, Feinberg’s volume is the second volume of a very significant series of theological monographs intended to engage present biblical, theological, and philosophical scholarship on the central loci of the Christian faith largely from a Calvinist perspective. Feinberg’s Calvinism has vast formative effect on the topics, directions and conclusions taken by Feinberg, especially in the latter half of the book"
