Abstract
Challengingly confronting the crisis of the modern age, Wolfhart Pannenberg examines questions about the truth of the Christian message and the nature of God and asks “whether the Christian faith still contains the truth that gathers together everything experienced as real.“
Closely related to earlier studies on the theology of history, the essays in BASIC QUESTIONS IN THEOLOGY, Volume II, concern insight and faith, the history of religions, the philosophical concept of God, atheism, the doctrine of God, and the God of hope.
For Pannenberg, the biblical God is the answer to the question of human existence. He is especially concerned to formulate a theology that encompasses a unity of faith and reason in an age “when anyone who tries to speak of God today can no longer count on being immediately understood – at least, not if he has in mind the living God of the Bible as the reality which determines everything, as the creator of the world.”
