This week we look at Paul D. Molnar's recent article 'What difference does one’s view of God make in understanding sin and salvation? Some suggestions from Karl Barth' in Scottish Journal of Theology 75 (2022), pp. 55-67.
Molnar’s article is a highly critical engagement with certain modern theologies that argue for a reconceptualisation of God. Molnar draws on Barth to argue forcefully that unless the source of our knowledge of God is the revelation of his grace in Jesus Christ, we will inevitably construct an idol, and so mischaracterise both sin and salvation. The discussion considers the method of Molnar’s article, and potential objections to its framing.
