- Title
Theology of Creation and the Use of Scripture From Nothing: A Theology of Creation.
- Authors
Moberly, Walter
- Abstract
David Fergusson's recent book, Creation, overviews differing aspects of creation for a theologically-literate but non-specialist readership, while Ian McFarland's From Nothing: A Theology of Creation offers a sophisticated account of the meaning and theological implications of the classic doctrine of creatio ex nihilo. Although both books make constructive appeal to Scripture, I suggest that their use of Scripture indicates that their creative theological thinking is not primarily done by working through the interpretative challenges that Scripture presents. There thus remains a distance between biblically and systematically oriented theological thinking.
