Man and Sin by Piet Schoonenberg (1964) 1.7AF

Summary of text [comment] pages 50 and 51

God is not one cause among others.

God’s activity coincides with the transcendent and the immanent causalities of creating.

In His salvic activity, individual persons are called into dialogue.

Sin, in its deepest nature, is a “no” to this dialogue. Here, sin affects God in his relations to humans. Sin effects the relation from Person to person.

Holy Scripture describes God’s jealousy, anger, and sorrow. These are necessary for our understanding of God’s supernatural activity in his covenant.
