GOD WITHOUT PASSIONS: A Reader
Edited by Samuel Renihan; Foreword by Carl Trueman

Subtitled A Reader, the primary purpose of the material presented in this book is to familiarize the reader with sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English language sources pertinent to the doctrine of divine impassibility, particularly for those who confess with the Reformed confessions that God is 'without body, parts, or passions.' If this material is studied carefully, the reader will encounter an excellent and diverse array of writings that touch on this subject.

If you are interested in the doctrine of God, and especially in understanding how sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Reformed theologians argued for divine impassibility, this book is for you. Samuel Renihan has collected the words of sixty theologians from the Reformation and post-Reformation era in order to help readers understand the classical doctrine of divine impassibility which is sorely misunderstood in our day.

Foreword by Carl. R. Trueman. Endorsements by James Dolezal, Paul Helm, Michael Horton, David VanDrunen, and Sam Waldron.

"Samuel Renihan has brought together a first-rate collection of mainly Reformed and Particular Baptist thinking on the doctrine of God, particularly his impassibility, which goes back to the church Fathers. This aspect of God's nature is much misunderstood and caricatured at present, such a God being thought to be withdrawn, apathetic, even psychotic. But these extracts show that the reverse is the case. Impassibility indicates the fullness of God's care for his creation. For he is not subject to fits, or spasms, or moods, or passions." - Paul Helm, Emeritus Professor, University of London
