God of Holy Love: Essays of Peter Taylor Forsyth

By: Forsyth, Peter Taylor

Book Overview

A comprehensive collection of Peter Taylor Forsyth's essays clarifying the interpersonal nature and manifestation of God's love.

The God of Christian faith is, according to Peter Taylor Forsyth, a God of holy, righteous love. As a result, God's intervention in human life is morally robust. It seeks the transformation of its recipients toward holy love, reaching its high points is in the cross of Jesus Christ. Paul Moser and Benjamin Nasmith expertly gather together twenty of Forsyth's essays clarifying the nature and manifestation of God's love. Forsyth contends that God is an active personal agent who desires interpersonal fellowship with humans, and that the authority governing that fellowship is His love. Attending to the experience of God in moral conscience, where one can experience forgiveness and redemption by God, Forsyth's writing challenges readers to consider whether their experience includes an encounter with a God who manifests holy love.
