The Christian Doctrine of the Divine Attributes
Theology
“Hermann Cremer, in particular, has rendered us a great service . . . in his outstanding small book, Die christliche Lehre von den Eigenschaften Gottes, as the first to have pointed out the contrast between the traditional doctrine of the divine attributes and the idea of God in the Bible. . . . Twenty years ago, when I began to teach dogmatics, it was Cremer, too, who opened my eyes.”
Theology
“The theology of Kitamori is the first attempt to make suffering an attribute of God in contrast to the orthodox idea of the happiness of God, which is rather an idea of Platonic philosophy than of the New Testament gospel.”
