Seven Reason Why “The Deep Things of God” Is an Important Book

An outline of Doug Wilson’s seven reasons he thinks you should read The Deep Things of God by Fred Sanders:

  1. Sanders knows the principle of clearing away debris in order to build on the old foundations.
  2. Sanders clearly understands the distinction between embodied Trinitarian practice and high level Trinitarian theory.
  3. Sanders understands the right order of theology.
  4. Sanders shows a wholesome loyalty to the evangelical wing of the Christian Church, without falling into petty forms of sectarianism.
  5. Sanders makes the same point that Piper does in his fine book God is the Gospel.
  6. Sanders is very clear that to be a biblicist is to be someone who functions, necessarily, within the shape of the gospel, which is Trinitarian in shape.
  7. Sanders knows that negotiating the balance between objective truth “out there,” and subjective truth “in here” is quite tricky.
