Reviews
"... an excellent, compact introduction to the principal tenets of Wolfhart Pannenberg's theology, including his recent Systematic Theology... Mostert has written a clear, useful work serving admirably admirable to Pannenberg's ample and complex thought. " --Irish Theological Quarterly
"Christiaan Mostert skillfully traces Pannenberg's thought from its early foundations to its full articulation in the Systematic Theology.... There is a satisfying and logical progression in M.'s exposition of Pannenberg, that takes us from apocalyptic to the ontology of the whole, and from there to the ontological priority of the future.... M. succeeds in communicating the energy, insight, and depth of Pennenberg's thought. He takes his readers by clear and systematic steps into the very center of Pennenberg's theology of God. This is an excellent book, highly recommended to all seeking to understand the thought of a leading figure in contemporary theology." -Theological Studies, 66.1, 3/05 * Theological Studies *
