Synopsis

A bold examination of how God relates to moral evil and why sin cannot be a divine method.

This work argues that sin is a feature of finite beings, not a plan of the Infinite, and it offers a framework for understanding how divine perfection meets the problem of wrong in a moral universe.

The text frames the issue by contrasting the nature of God with the nature of finite intelligence. It discusses how intelligent creatures are created in God’s image, possess moral freedom, and act as causes within a larger divine order. The author reasons that sin arises from finite causation and apostasy, not from the deity’s method or plan.

  • Grounds a philosophy of sin that centers on finite causation rather than divine design.
  • Explains moral government, probation, and the proper limits of divine activity in a fallen world.
  • Illustrates the relationship between revelation, conscience, and reason in evaluating God’s character.
  • Offers a constructive, hopeful view of righteousness and the restoration of the guilty.

Ideal for readers of theological philosophy, Christian apologetics, and biblical studies who seek a clear, accessible account of God’s relation to sin and the moral order.
