Where \"classical theists\" portrayed God as supremely transcendent, God also seemed, at times, distant and unknowable. By contrast, contemporary Christians generally insist on having a personal, dynamic relationship with God. Where ancient Christians tended to emphasize God's transcendence, modern Christians tend to emphasize God's immanence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat made the doctrines of classical theism attractive and compelling to early Christians? What arguments were given in their defense? What conclusions did they yield about the human knowledge of God? More importantly, should the doctrines of classical theism be revived or rejected? Thinkers such as Clement of Alexandria, Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Steven Charnock, and Karl Barth are asked for answers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 252\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.53 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 24, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54090878353715,"sku":"9780990800866","price":27.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/uluMb6ndsY9780990800866.webp?v=1789609923","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-unknown-god-a-critical-history-of-classical-theism-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
