Is it God's will that the world be destroyed? That is no longer a believable idea. This book starts from the assumption that God has nothing to do with the destruction of the world. To account for these facts, rather, we must look at the "deep darkness"--depicted in the Bible--that threatens to return the world to a formless void. With that assumption this book proposes a biblical theology that shows how faith and hope can align with our scientific and ethical understandings and how such a thoughtful faith will be active in love. So understood, the love of God looks less like the love a parent has for a child than the challenging, risky love a leader has for disciples, whose word to them is "follow me." In this way we see that love works: love is active; and love succeeds in defeating the corruption and violence that threaten to destroy our world. That's the gospel truth.

Ned Wisnefske is the Charles and Helen Schumann Professor of Lutheran Theology at Roanoke College, Salem, Virginia. He is the author of Our Natural Knowledge of God: A Prospect for Natural Theology after Kant and Barth; Preparing to Hear the Gospel: A Proposal for Natural Theology; God Hides: A Critique of Religion and a Primer for Faith; The Ought, by Prof. Wiz; Could God Fail? The Fate of the Universe and the Faith of Christians.
