'Divine Enticement' takes as its starting point that the meanings of theological concepts are not so much logical, truth-valued propositions - affirmative or negative - as they are provocations and evocations. Thus it argues for the seductiveness of both theology and its subject - for, in fact, infinite seduction and enticement as the very sense of theological query.Philosophical theologyTheology, DoctrinalElectronic books.Philosophical theology.Theology, Doctrinal.230MacKendrick Karmen1962-949212MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463462603321Divine enticement2145487UNINA
