Driven by God by Jae-Eun Park - concept map summary

A revised version Jae-Eun Park's PhD thesis, supervised by John Bolt, has recently been published by as Driven by God: Active Justification and Definitive Sanctification in the Soteriology of Bavinck, Comrie, Witsius, and Kuyper by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. Full details are here

In it he examines and defends the notion of active justification and definitive sanctification. To do so he draws upon four Dutch theologians: Bavinck, Comrie, Witsius and Kuyper. Bavinck supports the idea of the inseparability of the two concepts; Comrie is used to show the nature of objective and decisive salvation; Witsius, the Christ-centredness; and Kuyper the relationship with God's sovereignty.

The following concept map provides a summary of the book (click on the image for a larger size).
