Theological Journals, Part 3:



Hedgehog Review (Summer 2022): in “Abuses and Uses of History: Nietzsche’s Quarrel with History,” Dr. Jennifer Ratner-Rosenbagen (Un. of Wisconsin-Madison) opens with some swirling historical approaches, including Putin’s abuse of history in the invasion of Ukraine. PRACTICAL: watching a professional historian work her craft with her specialty in American intellectual history (which may be oxymoronic, bad joke).

DTS (Summer 2022): “Interview with Dr. Darrel Bock:” discussion of poiema in Ephesians 2.10—relational, work of God, expressed in obedience to God’s commandments.

“The Fundamentals—A Testimony to the Truth, Vol. 1:” in “The Mosaic Authorship of the Pentateuch,” Professor George Frederick Wright, DD, LLD, comments on the stern aversion of higher critics to God’s sovereignty and providence. No miracles possible. A few will sneak in a few, but the vast majority are schooled in denial and affirm the little-god view with their Ich Theologie (our words).

“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), comments on the extent of inspiration, to the words. Really, a miracle itself, but handily done by our Sovereign God.

“The Fundamentals—A Testimony to the Truth, Vol. 3: “The Biblical Conception of Sin,” the Rev. Dr. Thomas Whitelaw of Kilmarnock, Scotland lays it on thick with a reconnaissance tour on sin and wickedness. PRACTICAL: Justin of Canterbury, care to comment on Dr. Whitelaw’s work? Send the memo to Lambeth? Hmm.

“The Fundamentals—A Testimony to the Truth, Vol. 4:” in “Modern Philosophy,” Attorney-at-Law, Philip Mauro strays out of his field into philosophy. Upshot? A worldview without God he urges.

“Theologians You Should Know: Apostolic Fathers to the 21st Century,” Dr. Michael Reeves discusses Irenaeus’s recapitulation view with man’s theosis (our word) by way of regeneration, sanctification and glorification.

Princeton Theological Review (Vol.22, No.1, Spring 2007): in “Atonement and Empire: Reworking Christus Victor for Roman Imperial Context,” Dr. Matthew Forrest Lowe retails the victory motif of Christ’s Kingly office (our characterization).
