None Greater
The Undomesticated Attributes of God
Book • 2019
In 'None Greater: The Undomesticated Attributes of God,' Matthew Barrett delves into the biblical, historic, and ecumenical doctrine of God, highlighting attributes such as aseity, simplicity, immutability, impassibility, and eternity.
Barrett argues that these perfections are essential to understanding God's nature and why he is worthy of worship.
The book critiques the tendency to domesticate God, making him more relatable but less divine, and instead calls readers to a deeper, more biblical understanding of God's character.
Barrett engages with the works of theologians like Augustine, Anselm, and Aquinas to provide a comprehensive and accessible treatment of the doctrine of God.
