Abstract Spanish theologian Luis de Molina is enjoying a quiet resurgence among Protestant scholars -- a belated appreciation, perhaps, for the Reformation-era Jesuit who in his lifetime never launched a theological movement comparable to those of his contemporaries Calvin and Arminius. In the first full-length work ever published on this seminal thinker, author Kirk R. MacGregor's Luis de Molina explores the development and original contributions -- above all the doctrine of God's "middle knowledge" -- of the brilliant philosophical theologian. - Jacket.
