J.B. Phillips

J.B. Phillips was a theologian and translator best known for his modern English translation of the New Testament. In the context of divine attributes, Phillips emphasized God's relational and personal nature, arguing that traditional theological concepts should be understood in a way that resonates with contemporary believers. He sought to bridge the gap between faith and modern understanding, portraying God as both transcendent and immanent. His work encourages a view of God that is accessible and relevant, focusing on love, grace, and the reality of divine presence in everyday life, rather than abstract theological concepts alone.
