The Incarnation as God's First Intention
In The Incarnation as God's First Intention, Edwin Chr. van Driel advocates a transformative perspective on the incarnation, proposing that God's decision to become incarnate was not a response to human sin but was instead God's first and foundational intention. Engaging the historical and theological roots of this supralapsarian (before the fall) Christology, van Driel, a leading scholar on the topic, invites readers to reconsider long-held views on God's engagement with creation. With clarity and depth, van Driel unpacks how understanding the incarnation as God's original purpose reshapes the doctrines of creation, election, salvation, and eschatology. His insights offer a fresh framework for the church's mission in today's world, suggesting that God's presence with us is not merely a remedy for human fallenness but, rather, God's first intention and ultimate goal for creation. Written for students, theologians, and all who seek a deeper understanding of God's relation to the world, this book challenges readers to see the incarnation, God's dwelling among us, as God's central purpose.
Intersections of Religion and Astronomy
This volume examines the way in which cultural ideas about "the heavens" shape religious ideas and are shaped by them in return. Our approaches to cosmology have a profound effect on the way in which we each deal with religious questions and participate in the imaginative work of public and private world-building. Employing an interdisciplinary team of international scholars, each chapter shows how religion and cosmology interrelate and matter for real people. Historical and contemporary case studies are included to demonstrate the lived reality of a variety of faith traditions and their interactions with the cosmos. This breadth of scope allows readers to get a unique overview of how religion, science and our view of space have, and will continue to, impact our worldviews. Offering a comprehensive exploration of humanity and its relationship with cosmology, this book will be an important reference for scholars of Religion and Science, Religion and Culture, Interreligious Dialogue and Theology, as well as those interested in Science and Culture and Public Education.
