trinities 364 - The God who Suffers - a Response to The Reluctant Theologian Podcast 118 Why di…

https://trinities.org/blog/podcast-36... In a thought-provoking recent episode released before this Easter, analytic theologian Dr. R.T. Mullins suggested three reasons God would have to become incarnate, building on work by Swinburne and McConnell.

The one he focuses the most on in the idea that God would be obligated to become incarnate so that he can suffer along with us, his beloved creatures.

In this episode I evaluate those three reasons using Scripture and reason. I argue that we can have the theological goods Dr. Mullins wants at a better price.

Which case did you find more convincing, and why?
