God Is Open: Examining The Open Theism Of The Biblical Authors

The Bible was written by over 35 authors over the course of several millennia. What did these authors believe about God? Is Yahweh of the Bible the same God envisioned by modern Christianity? This book uses critical thinking skills to treat each author independently in order to reveal their individualized concepts of God. Did they believe in the Negative Attributes (aseity, simplicity, necessity, immutability, impassibility, eternity, omniscience, omnipotence, omnipresence, etc.)? Explore: - Does God sometimes regret His own actions? - Does Genesis 1 describe God creating the universe from nothing? - Does God punish innocent people to solve existential questions? - Does God crowdsource ideas to accomplish His goals? - Does God care about how Pagans view Him? - Did Jesus have different desires than God? - Is God's judgment based on His emotional state? - Is Satan a character in the Old Testament? Explore these questions and more as the context of 40 Biblical excerpts are examined.
