The Triune God: New Studies in Dogmatics (Paperback)

The Triune God aims to secure our knowledge of the triune God by rightly ordering the theological language with which we praise him. It reaches its conclusions about how the doctrine should be handled based on the way the Trinity was revealed. As such, it is a study that offers dogmatic principles for trinitarian exegesis.
A constructive study of Trinitarian theology that aims to clarify our knowledge of the triune God by rightly ordering the theological language we use to praise him.
The Triune God reaches its conclusions about how this doctrine should be handled based on the way the Trinity was revealed. As such, theologian Fred Sanders:
• Invites a doxological invitation to the reader to contemplate the mystery of the Trinity.
• Establishes the biblical exposition and draws the doctrinal implications from it.
• Offers dogmatic principles for Trinitarian exegesis.
Though Sanders does interact with major voices from the history of doctrine—and his arguments are indebted to and informed by the great tradition of Trinitarianism—he is clear throughout that Trinitarianism is a gift of revelation before it is an achievement of the church. The most patristic way to proceed toward a well-ordered doctrine of the Trinity is, after all, to study Scripture.
