Theological Journals, Part 4: 12/8/2022

Table Talk (Nov 2022): in “Is Christianity Oppressive?,” Rev. Rothwell notes that history has bad periods, but that is the failure of Christians at times whereas true Christianity is liberation—as we’d say, so beautifully described in our beloved, rational, Biblical, careful and historic Westminster Confession of Faith, the finest Confession in the English-speaking tongue. Table Talk (Dec 2022): “Last Things:” Dr. Keith Mathison concludes his article that eschatology is a whole-Bible concept, front to back and back to the front. Table Talk (Jan 2023): “Uncompromised Peace:” Dr. Burk Parson offers a few platitudes and, hopefully, the rest will give more definitions as this unfolds. Standard Bearer (Nov 15, 2022): in “With One Voice: The Reformers on Justification,” Prof. Huizinga will use Heinrich Bullinger’s “Decades” and Chap. 15 of the Second Helvetic Confession as the template for discussion. Standard Bearer (1 Dec 2022): in “The Sin of Forgiveness,” Prof. Gritters argues that forgiving an impenitent sinner is wrong and does not accord with God’s practice. Bibliotheca Sacra (Jan-Mar 2021): in Periodical Reviews: Dr. Douglas Moos’” “The Type of the One to Come: Adam in Paul’s Theology” in Trinity Journal (2019): Dr. Moo holds to the historicity of Adam, not just some mythico-religious fictive character. Bibliotheca Sacra (April-June 2021): in “Paul’s Use of an Ontological Metaphor in 2 Corinthians 6.16,” Dr. Michael McKay begins asking what the tabernacle and “Temple” means in the OT and to St. Paul. Modern Reformation (Nov/Dec 2022): “Does the Augsburg Confession Teach Anything Outside of Scripture,” a translation by Dr. Rester is offered of Friedrich Baldwin’s work—in which Baldwin answers “No” to a Jesuitical antagonist.
