  • More about Absolute Person and Moral Experience: A Study in Neo-Calvinism

This book explores the neo-Calvinist understanding of human moral experience, drawing from the works of Bavincks, Vos, and Van Til. It argues that human moral experience is the result of God's self-expression primarily in the Son.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 222 pages
Publication date: 22 February 2024
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC


This book presents a neo-Calvinist perspective on human moral experience, building upon the tradition of Augustinian moral theology. It begins by exploring theological interpretations of Genesis 2:17 and 3:6, delving into the concept of God as an absolute person. Chapter 3 examines the neo-Calvinist understanding of God through the lens of human reason and history. Chapter 4 explores the relationship between the absolute person and classical trinitarianism, highlighting its significance for accommodation, hermeneutics, and the Creator/creature relation and distinction. Chapter 5 examines the role of the incarnation in Bavinck's thought, providing a biblical theological foundation for reflecting upon the absolute person. The book concludes by asserting that, according to Bavincks, Vos, and Van Til, human moral experience is the result of a divine self-expression primarily in the Son.
