Theological Journals, Part 1

Trinity Journal (TEDS, Spring 2022): in “The Ancient Church Calendar,” Dr. Philip Derstine discusses the three ancient festivals of Israel. Anglican and Episcopal History (June 2022): in “’You Share Our Story’: Historiographies of the Lambeth Conference,” Dr. BENJAMIN GUYER comments on the various volumes that include introductory materials, e.g. sermons, but also documents therefrom. Anglican and Episcopal History (June 2022): in “Anglicanism, the Lambeth Conferences, and International Relations in the Twentieth Century,” Dr. ANDREW CHANDLER discusses the theological challenges of the 1968 Lambeth Conference: “religionless Christianity,” demythologization and the “Death of God” movement, e.g. JAT Robinson. Nice piece of historical reminiscence. Table Talk (July 2022): the 5th commandment is discussed. Standard Bearer (June 2022): “Letters to the Editor:” 2 more letters are on offer regarding the May 2022 issue on “sexual abuse.” Apparently, there have been some instances in the PRCA. Bibliotheca Sacra (Jan-Mar 2021): in “A Chronology of the Life of Christ with Emphasis on the Nativity and Epiphany,” Kurt Simmons, J.D. is discussing March 25 as the predicate of calendrical computations. Modern Reformation (May/June 2022): in “Restoring Eve,” Kendra Dahl offers 6 view of teschugah in Genesis 3.16. The etymological argument of Susan Foh needs more context to address the phrase, “your desire shall be for your husband” with the adversarial nuance. Modern Reformation (July/Aug 2022): in “The Scriptures Sufficiency to Determine All Matters of Faith,” William Twisse, Prolocutor of the Westminster Assembly (1643-1646) handles the Jesuit’s claim of the obscurity of Scriptures leading to diversities in the Protestant communion. Twisse points to diversities in the ancient, medieval and current situation within Romanism as a preliminary thrust, hook and jab at the Continental Jesuit. Calvin Theological Journal (Spring 2022): in “The Beatitudes and the Life of the Church, Gerard M, Cisar makes up no further ground on the SM. Westminster Theological Journal (Nov 2021, 355-381): “Classical Versus Contemporary: Engaging Trinitarian and Pneumatological Modelling for Ongoing Theological Construction:” Torey J.S. Teer makes the foray into addressing Third Article Theology and Spirit Christology, alleged efforts to recast the entire theological enterprise on those two models. Mid-America Journal of Theology (Fall 2021): in “Should Effectual Calling and Regeneration be Distinguished,” Dr. Cornelius Venema correlates the Canons of Dordt and WCF 10 on the mediate and immediate views of effectual calling and regeneration. Global Anglican (Spring 2022): in “Evaluating the Place of the Main Images of the Atonement,” Alexander Evans moves to his conclusion: the BCP liturgy embraces Christ’s sacrificial, penal, ransoming, reconciling and motivating atonement. Lovely when compared to the article in the PTJ (2007) on the atonement, a veritable bag of rocks to be thrown overboard.
