The first time I heard about the debate between Absolute Divine Simplicity and the Essence-Energies distinction, I must confess, it all seemed a bit like something that only theologians with WAY too much time on their hands debate. I figured I'd leave the philosophical theology to the scholastics and be on my merry way. However, the more I learned, the more I thought I should at least have a cursory understanding of the issue. Then I sat down with Dr. Bradshaw. In this interview, he showed just how important the Essence-Energies distinction is, and how this affects a whole host of other doctrines. In this video he demonstrates how our view of divine simplicity can effect how we view salvation, how we view the glory of God, and much more. I was blown away, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
