Is classical theism compatible with eternalism? Is Christianity compatible with eternalism? Does Christianity actually *require* eternalism, as Alex Pruss argues? Helsinki Hero Dr. Ryan Mullins joins me to discuss these questions and more. Outline below! 1. Defining terms -----Eternalism and presentism -----Four-dimensionalism (of which perdurantism and stage theory are versions) and endurantism -----Classical theism and neo-classical theism -----The method of perfect being theism -----Christian theism 2. Classical theism and eternalism -----Creation ex nihilo -----Act and potency 3. Perfect being theism and eternalism 4. Christian theism and eternalism -----Undefeated/Unredeemed evil -----Personal identity over time and life after death 5. Christianity entails eternalism? (Alex Pruss) -----The Christian life and Christ’s suffering -----Salvation and the gift of grace Because of this lovely discussion, my video “Existential Inertia Defended | Part 2/2” has been postponed. It will be posted next weekend.
