Another witness

Justin Taylor weighs in on Wright and the atonement.  Excellent.  I recently heard Piper speak [ugh, I originally wrote “pipe up” before I realized what I was doing] to defend Wright on the same issue.  While I disagree with Piper (and Taylor?) on various issues related to Wright, it is wonderful to see judicious analysis […]

A recipe for humility: be an Evangelical Presbyterian in America

It has got to be good for me. When I was at seminary I would have told Joe Christian that Presbyterians were the scholars of American Evangelicalism (actually, that might be tragically true)–that they were the intellectual high point of American Bible-believing Christians. I was proud to be a Presbyterian.
So stuff like this, […]

Bram Stoker’s Dracula

For a long long time I have been meaning to review this book. I thought I should read it because it is virtually “canon” when it comes to vampire fiction…
I don’t know that I am going to finish it. I am certain it is not worth much of a review. (Strange sentiments […]

Doug Wilson finds a huge citation mistake

No, I haven’t gotten that much further in the report.  But along the lines of the citation error I mentioned, Doug found another case where a statement is footnoted with evidence that proves the opposite of what the report asserts.  The whole post is worth reading, but I’ll reproduce this one part:

World mag blog on FV report

I just wrote a reply to this, but have no idea if it will publish.  Here is what I wrote:
The “Federal Vision” was a conference on Covenant Theology (Federal = Covenant / Vision = Theology).  In that conference a robust and Biblical Covenant Theology was extolled over against a later traditional “revivalistic pietism.”  The speakers […]

Stephen King on writing

This was a phenomenal read. At some point, Steve mentions that writers read all the time and, at that point I sort of took a break from the book and started reading more fiction. Then when I came to the book I realized he himself had taken a long break in writing the […]

The report so far 02a

I. A. 2. Covenant
The report claims “The Westminster Standards set forth a bi-covenantal structure of federal theology” but this is not the false Klinean view, but the orthodox (and, yes, confessional) view of “covenant of works before the Fall and a covenant of grace after the Fall.” The report is gratifyingly clear on this […]

OK, I’d like some interaction if I’ve missed anything, because I am busy with stuff, even though I decided to take some time to start the report.
First, I’ve read I. A. 1 on Election in the Westminster Standards.  I don’t see anything wrong with it.  It is standard Reformed theology.  I have to say that […]
