More than sixty years after his death, B.B. Warfield's witness remains a powerful influence in main- stream Christianity simply because no successor has attained to his eminence as a biblical theologian. In his years at Princeton, 1886-1921, he was unquestionably the best-known opponent of the rationalism and anti-supernaturalism which threatened the life of the Church in the 20th Century; for him a non-miraculous Christianity was no Christianity at all. But with his breadth of vision Warfield also saw the danger of false claims to the possession of miraculous gifts - claims which have repeatedly been made both by the Church of Rome and by groups within Protestantism. - Publisher.

He joined the National Guard inpreparing to go to war for his country. Before he had any assignments from the military, he spent some time with Stella Zimmerman, a missionary who was on furlough. You are needed in Central America! Cameron Townsend was unhappy about being called a coward and chose to pursue the missions call instead. He requested to be released from soldier service and to be allowed to become a Cameron Townsend: Good News in Every Language overseas instead. Over the next year he traveled through Latin America. During this time, he met another missionary who felt called to Latin America named Elvira. The two married in July He spread the Gospel in Spanish but felt that this was not accessible to the indigenous people of the country. For this reason, he went to Santa Catarina and settled in a Cakchiquel community where he learned the native language. He spent fourteen years there, learning and then translating the Bible into the local language. He started a school and medical clinic, and set up a generator of electricity, a plant to process coffee, and a supply store for agriculture. Townsend felt that the standard missionary practices neglected some of the needs of the people, as well as ignoring the cultures and languages of many of the groups.

  • The Trinitarian Ecclesiology of Thomas F. Torrance
    The Trinitarian Ecclesiology of Thomas F. Torrance Kate Helen Dugdale Submitted to fulfil the requirements for a Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Otago, November 2016. 1 2 ABSTRACT This thesis argues that rather than focusing on the Church as an institution, social grouping, or volunteer society, the study of ecclesiology must begin with a robust investigation of the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. Utilising the work of Thomas F. Torrance, it proposes that the Church is to be understood as an empirical community in space and time that is primarily shaped by the perichoretic communion of Father, Son and Holy Spirit, revealed by the economic work of the Son and the Spirit. The Church’s historical existence is thus subordinate to the Church’s relation to the Triune God, which is why the doctrine of the Trinity is assigned a regulative influence in Torrance’s work. This does not exclude the essential nature of other doctrines, but gives pre-eminence to the doctrine of the Trinity as the foundational article for ecclesiology. The methodology of this thesis is one of constructive analysis, involving a critical and constructive appreciation of Torrance’s work, and then exploring how further dialogue with Torrance’s work can be fruitfully undertaken. Part A (Chapters 1-5) focuses on the theological architectonics of Torrance’s ecclesiology, emphasising that the doctrine of the Trinity has precedence over ecclesiology. While the doctrine of the Church is the immediate object of our consideration, we cannot begin by considering the Church as a spatiotemporal institution, but rather must look ‘through the Church’ to find its dimension of depth, which is the Holy Trinity.

  • The Legacy of Academic Stories in Applied Linguistics1
    The Legacy of Academic Stories in Applied Linguistics1 Karl J. Franklin Graduate Institute of Applied Linguistics and SIL International Abstract: The Graduate Institute of Linguistics (GIAL, www.gial.edu) grew out of a proprietary school run by SIL International (www.sil.org) and supports the linguistic and translation goals of that organization, the Wycliffe Bible Translators (www.wycliffe.net), and other like-minded agencies. It follows the legacies of men like Professor Kenneth L. Pike (1912-2000) and Wycliffe cofounder William Cameron Townsend (1896-1982), by offering programs in applied linguistics and language development. Both Pike and Townsend were skilled storytellers and mentors. I discuss their contributions to the topic of orality, including stories that form and inform parts of the GIAL and SIL corporate cultures. Because storytelling has a long academic tradition in seminaries (e.g., studying the parables), in elementary and in secondary education, and in the college humanities, I describe some of the ways that SIL and GIAL have continued this tradition. Storytelling is also germane in cultural studies (oral histories) in developing-world universities, and is also a vehicle that literacy efforts promote for minority languages. Finally, story (or narrative) is the dominant theme and style of the Bible and its translation, a primary concern of GIAL and SIL. With such efforts and history in mind, this article concludes by outlining how features of story-telling are incorporated into the curricula of GIAL and thereby contribute to the legacy of SIL academic storytelling. 1. Institutional storytelling Silverman (2006:47) claims, “When people remember a story, they remember its intent”.

Aldridge Jr. A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Degree in Liberal Studies Excelsior College Albany, New York January 22, 2007 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This thesis is a study of the development of William Cameron Townsend’s (1896- 1982) perspective on the role of “nationals”1 in the Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL). In 1934, Townsend founded SIL to carry out Bible translation for the indigenous peoples of Latin America. After 1950, SIL expanded into Asia and Africa where Bible translation was initiated amongst minority peoples who still lacked the Christian scriptures in their own languages. Into the 1960s, only western expatriates were members2 of SIL. However, by the 1970s, the issue of nationals joining SIL as full members on an equal basis with western expatriates became a topic of ongoing discussion in the organization. Although Townsend had always championed the rights of indigenous and non-western peoples, the strategy that he employed when establishing SIL was not conducive to non-western membership.

  • William Cameron Townsend
    William Cameron Townsend by Calvin T. Hibbard, Townsend Archives Editor 1896-l982 Stimulator of linguistic research among ethnic minorities and champion of their cultural dignity "Not since the third century has there been a man like Cameron Townsend who attempted so much, and saw so many dreams realized in his lifetime," declared Kenneth L. Pike, Nobel Peace Prize Nominee. He called them "dreams" but they were more in the order of hard-nosed intentions. One objective was to stimulate the study of every single minority language in the world not yet analyzed or recorded. Another was to enable every people, wherever they were, to establish and control their own communal identities. Townsend saw tremendous progress toward accomplishing both goals in his lifetime. What follows is only a keyhole glimpse into the story. As for the first "dream," the Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL), which Townsend founded, has in the last half of the 20th century published academic materials describing and analyzing 1,724 languages and is currently working on 1,053 others. As for the second, to Townsend equally as important as the first, he with his colleagues worked vigorously with appropriate local governmental and educational agencies to help all these peoples acquire self-esteem, dignity, and national identity. Townsend's contribution to the academic community and his encouragement to members of small ethnic groups to understand their own personal worth cannot be measured. The world of science along with multiplied segments of humanity owe great gratitude to Townsend. Townsend's life was as diverse as the programs he advanced and the organizations he founded.
