Forsaking the Fall argues that the doctrines of the Fall and Original Sin need not be understood as integral components of orthodox Christianity. Innovative and provocative, it will be of interest to scholars of theology and philosophy, specifically analytic theologians and philosophers of religion.
Forsaking the Fall argues along exegetical, theological, and philosophical lines that the doctrines of the Fall and Original Sin need not be understood as integral components of orthodox Christianity.
By engaging biblical studies, systematic theology, and analytic philosophy, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the most important issues at play in the Original Sin debate, as well as offers a set of tools for helping readers to think critically about the essence of the Christian faith and its relation to Original Sin. Crucially, it lays the theoretical groundwork for an orthodox nonlapsarianism and advances a novel theory vis-à-vis the Fall and Original Sin in Christian theology.
