The Justification of God

by Peter Taylor Forsyth

On This Page

Description

Theodicy is the attempt to adjust the ways of God to conscience. But to the conscience of God above all. That is the way taken in this book. Its object is not to bring God's ways to the bar either of human reason or human conscience, but rather to the bar where all reason and conscience must go at last, to the standard of a holy God's own account of Himself in Jesus Christ and His Cross.

This is a profound book, which was written in 1917, and is still so profound, most find it too difficult to read. It is worth the effort, for it provides us with a much needed theodicy, on a global scale, fulfilling the author's words in another place - "theology means to think in centuries" (The Work of Christ).
