2009 Kantzer Lectures, Lecture #5
In this fifth lecture, Williams turns more explicitly toward systematic theological formulation. His primary questions include the paradox of man’s freedom and God’s call, and the question of God’s justice and mercy in the decision to elect some but not all. Williams is quick to re-emphasize the provisional nature of our conclusions this side of the eschaton. His model theologian here is Charles Simeon, who Williams believes would have centralized paradox in his theology rather than relieved it, had he developed it further.
