Jonathan Lett highlights how Barth's rejection of natural theology and the "orders of creation" does not impede his development of a robust account of creation's nature and order. This work traces the development of his theology of nature from Romans I to the completion of his doctrine creation in Church Dogmatics. It examines the way in which Barth's doctrine of creation is shaped by his doctrine of election. Lett offers a close reading of Barth's ethics of creation and shows that without this quasi-essentialist ontology of creation's nature is an important aspects of understanding Barth. The book pushes interpreters to grapple with this quasi-essentialist understanding of creation's nature and order that animate even Barth's starkest "acutalistic" moments.
