Moser, Paul K., 1957- The severity of God [electronic resource] : religion and philosophy reconceived / Paul K. Moser. Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2013. xi, 218 p. Includes bibliographical references and index. Machine generated contents note: Preface; Introduction; 1. Severity and God; 2. Severity and flux; 3. Severity and evidence; 4. Severity and salvation; 5. Severity and philosophy; References; Index. "This book explores the role of divine severity in the character and wisdom of God, and the flux and difficulties of human life in relation to divine salvation. Much has been written on problems of evil, but the matter of divine severity has received relatively little attention. Paul K. Moser discusses the function of philosophy, evidence and miracles in approaching God. He argues that if God's aim is to extend without coercion His lasting life to humans, then commitment to that goal could manifest itself in making human life severe, for the sake of encouraging humans to enter into that cooperative good life. In this scenario, divine agape is conferred as free gift, but the human reception of it includes stress and struggle in the face of conflicting powers and priorities. Moser's work will be of great interest to students of the philosophy of religion, and theology"-- Provided by publisher. Electronic reproduction. Ann Arbor, MI : ProQuest, 2015.
