As leading evangelical theological institutions and societies prepare to grapple with the potentially divisive implications of neotheism, "The Battle of God" clearly reiterates the tenets of orthodox belief that are under assault, the biblical and theological basis for their acceptance, and the stakes that hand in the balance in any debate about the nature and involvement of God in time and the events of human history.
