Theological Journals, Part 4

Southwestern Theological Journal (Fall 2021), in “THE USE OF THE OLD TESTAMENT IN THE EPISTLE TO THE JAMES, 1-2 PETER AND JUDE,” Dr. Mark Taylor begins his exposition of Jude on false teachers, citing the Exodus generation, Sodom and Gomorrah, Korah, etc. This raises a solid issue: what is a false teacher? Reformed Theological Journal (Sept 2020), in “Christian Platonism” and Christological Interpretation: A Response to Craig A. Carter, Interpreting Scripture with the Great Tradition,” Daniel J. Treier of Wheaton College discusses a participatory ontology without blotting out the Creator-creature distinction. We live, move and have our being in God, yet distinctions must be observed and maintained. The Biblical Repertory/Princeton Review (Volume 9, Issue 1, 1837, pages 29ff.). James Waddel Archibald reviews Art. 1V.—Plea for Voluntary Societies and a Defense of the Decisions of the General Assembly of 1836 against the Strictures of the Princeton Reviewers and others.— By a member of the Assembly, New-York, John S. Taylor, 1837, pp. 187. Rev. Alexander continues to opine about Mr. Taylor’s independentism, if not arrogance regarding the subject of foreign mission boards.
