(Kantzer Lectures) (Stephen Williams, 2009) https://www.theologyethics.com/2018/04/24/the-election-of-grace-a-riddle-without-resolution-kantzer-lectures-stephen-williams-2009/ Tue, 24 Apr 2018 19:01:46 +0000 https://www.theologyethics.com/?p=23842 Dr. Williams presented a series of six lectures on Karl Barth and election, with particular emphasis upon the pastoral function of the doctrine. Beginning with a discussion of the issues that arise in debates about election, Dr. Williams details Karl Barth’s view on the topic of election and the related topics of Christian perseverance and particular atonement, including an exposition of Romans 9-11. Dr. Williams then developed Barth’s single predestinarian view and addressed the doctrine of assurance in conversation with Barth’s own views. Taken together, the lectures applied fresh perspective to the views of Karl Barth on the election of grace.
