The Doctrine of the Knowledge of God by John M. Frame

3.0

Frame uses his multiperspectivalism to put forward a series of coherent arguments in apologetics and epistemology. The work is well-written and intelligent, and although the multiperspectivalism was certainly interesting nothing that was found by applying it felt particularly revolutionary. I suppose it was pleasing to see these arguments affirmed by someone firmly embedded in the modern evangelical tradition.

I was pleasantly surprised at how willing he was to listen to non-orthodox theological positions and to try and find some value in them. This attitude is quite unusual (and often discouraged) in evangelical circles I have been a part of. Perhaps if evangelicals followed Frame's examples they would be less disliked by the wider Christian community.

The coherence and intelligence of this book were very reassuring, although this is as much of a criticism of the standard of Christian literature today as it is a commendment of this volume. The framework that this book provides for theology and doctrine feels robust and straightforward, yet it was sad that many of the common errors and fallacies Frame warns against felt all too familiar.
