AB - Karl Barth is one of the most influential Protestant theologians in the 20th century. He strongly emphasizes the difference between God’s revelation and human religiosity, defining religion as human disobedience to the self-revealing God. This radical idea has been inadequately used to justify Christians’ exclusivist attitude toward other religions. Resisting this rather simplified reading of Barth, this study aims to reinterpret the relationship between Christianity and Islam from the perspective of his tantalizing view of election, a doctrine celebrated by many Barth scholars as his most creative and crucial theological achievement. He charges Islam’s view of God in the sense that its abstract understanding of divine transcendence cannot fully explain God’s gracious self-decision to be Deus pro nobis (God for us). In addition, his radical claim that God’s eternal election and rejection take place in Jesus Christ makes room for re-thinking the place of Ishmael and his descendent within God’s providence.
