Theological Journals, Part 3: 8/30/2022

“The Fundamentals—A Testimony to the Truth, Vol. 1:” in “The Mosaic Authorship of the Pentateuch,” Professor George Frederick Wright, DD, LLD, talks about a spectrum in the higher critical orbit—weak deniers and robust deniers of God’s sovereignty and miracles—all cut from the same cloth, however, with the little-godism. “The Fundamentals—A Testimony to the Truth, Vol. 2:” in “Inspiration of the Bible—Definition, Extent and Proof,” Dr. James Gray (Moody Bible Institute and ordained minister in the Reformed Episcopal Church) describes verbal inspiration, words not just ideas. “The Fundamentals—A Testimony to the Truth, Vol. 3: “The Biblical Conception of Sin,” the Rev. Dr. Thomas Whitelaw of Kilmarnock, Scotland lays down the law on sin—no maneuvering room there to mitigate original or actual sin. Dr. Cranmer would agree. “The Fundamentals—A Testimony to the Truth, Vol. 4:” in “Modern Philosophy,” Attorney-at-Law, Philip Mauro is making a case for the death and vacuity of philosophy apart from the Bible and Christ. “Theologians You Should Know: Apostolic Fathers to the 21st Century,” Dr. Michael Reeves discusses Irenaeus’s recapitulationism versus Marcion and Gnostics. Princeton Theological Review (Vol.22, No.1, Spring 2007): in “Atonement and Empire: Reworking Christus Victor for Roman Imperial Context,” Dr. Matthew Forrest Lowe fairly characterizes Aulen’s theme. Reformed Faith and Practice (May 2022): in “Geerhardus Vos and the Interpretation of Romans 1:3-4,” Dr. J. V. Fesko, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson, suggests that Vos’s redemptive-historical view of Romans 1.3-4 was rooted in two contemporary German critics. Concordia Theological Journal (January 2022), in “Scaer and Preuss on Justification,” one learns of the invasion of the denials of Biblical inerrancy in the ALC and ELCA.
