I stumbled into Dallas Willard's site tonight: www.dwillard.org
Eventually they hope to post all his articles. Many are available now.
Articles on Christianity: http://www.dwillard.org/articles/chrislist.asp
Articles on Philosophy: http://www.dwillard.org/articles/phillist.asp
Mephi, check 'em out! I totally love what I've read of Willard. Looking forward to wadding through the articles too...well, at least those I can understand.
Pinnock claims in MMM that Willard is an open theist. I checked out the passage in Willard's Divine Conspiracy on which Pinnock based his comments. Seemed clear enough to me. I'd love to hear it from Willard himself.

| Posted 6/3/2002 12:49 PM (GMT -6) | | Tom: I read Divine Conspirary before I began studying open theism so I don't remember any passages that would point to any open theist belief. Could you give me the section it is in? Harold

| Posted 6/4/2002 2:54 AM (GMT -6) | | Hi Writerdad-
Read pages 244-253, especially the sections entitled “Change We Change God?”, “A Universe Responsive to Personality,” and “Does this Offend God’s Dignity?”
I actually want to type out, post, and discuss some of this. Go ahead and check it out. Tell me whether or not you think Willard is an open theist. He doesn't use the words "open," but it's so obviously there.
