Excerpt from Evolution and the Doctrine of the Trinity
The best way to start such a restatement of the Doctrine of the Holy Trinity seemed to be by examining anew the conception of personality, both in its manward and Godward aspects. When this had been done, a fresh start was made in the examination of Christhood the link between Godhead and manhood. Yet another starting point presented itself in the almost universal belief in human immortality. Lastly, the evolution of personality itself demanded consideration.

This 1918 book restates the Doctrine of the Holy Trinity from an evolutionary standpoint. Implicit in this aim is the requirement that a doctrine's truth is not essentially attached to the terminology in which it is expressed, so that the key idea survives as the original terminology becomes archaic.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book re-examines the concept of the Trinity from an evolutionary perspective, arguing that it's possible to restate Christian fundamentals in terms relatable to modern thought. It presents an extensive study of the relationship between personality and God, examining the nature of transcendence and immanence in both. The author argues that, like God, humans are both transcendent and immanent, and examines how this interplay manifests in their personalities. Through a unique Trinitarian lens, the book explores themes of being and becoming and the relationship between God and creation. The book contends that God's self-limitation is a necessary consequence of His love and desire for other beings to enter into His perfect experience. Thus, the author presents a thought-provoking and nuanced perspective on the nature of God, humanity, and the relationship between them.
