  • A Chronology of Edwards' Life and Writings
    A CHRONOLOGY OF EDWARDS’ LIFE AND WRITINGS Compiled by Kenneth P. Minkema This chronology of Edwards's life and times is based on the dating of his early writings established by Thomas A. Schafer, Wallace E. Anderson, and Wilson H. Kimnach, supplemented by volume introductions in The Works of Jonathan Edwards, by primary sources dating from Edwards' lifetime, and by secondary materials such as biographies. Attributed dates for literary productions indicate the earliest or approximate points at which Edwards probably started them. "Miscellanies" entries are listed approximately in numerical groupings by year rather than chronologically; for more exact dating and order, readers should consult relevant volumes in the Edwards Works. Entries not preceded by a month indicates that the event in question occurred sometime during the calendar year under which it listed. Lack of a pronoun in a chronology entry indicates that it regards Edwards. 1703 October 5: born at East Windsor, Connecticut 1710 January 9: Sarah Pierpont born at New Haven, Connecticut 1711 August-September: Father Timothy serves as chaplain in Queen Anne's War; returns home early due to illness 1712 March-May: Awakening at East Windsor; builds prayer booth in swamp 1714 August: Queen Anne dies; King George I crowned November 22: Rev.

  • The Mandate of Biblical Inerrancy: 1 Expository Preaching
    THE MANDATE OF BIBLICAL INERRANCY: 1 EXPOSITORY PREACHING John F. MacArthur, Jr. President and Professor of Pastoral Ministries The Master's Seminary The special attention of evangelicalism given to the inerrancy of Scripture in recent years carries with it a mandate to emphasize the expository method of preaching the Scriptures. The existence of God and His nature requires the conclusion that He has communicated accurately and that an adequate exegetical process to determine His meaning is required. The Christian commission to preach God's Word involves the transmitting of that meaning to an audience, a weighty responsibility. A belief in inerrancy thus requires, most important of all, exegetical preaching, and does not have to do primarily with the homiletical form of the message. In this regard it differs from a view of limited inerrancy. * * * * * The theological highlight of recent years has without question been evangelicalism's intense focus on biblical innerrancy.2 Much of what has been written defending inerrancy3 represents the most acute theological reasoning our generation has produced. Yet, it seems our commitment to inerrancy is somewhat lacking in the 1This essay was initially given as a response at the International Council on Biblical Inerrancy, Summit II (Nov 1982). It was subsequently published under the title "Inerrancy and Preaching: Where Exposition and Exegesis Come Together" in Hermeneutics, Inerrancy, and the Bible (ed. by Earl Radmacher and Robert Preus; Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1984) 801-831. It has been updated to serve as the foundational article for this inaugural issue of The Master's Seminary Journal. 2 Over a ten-year period (1977-1987), the International Council on Biblical Inerrancy held three summits for scholars (1978, 1982, 1986) and two congresses for the Christian community-at-large (1982, 1987) whose purposes were to formulate and disseminate the biblical truth about inerrancy.

  • 1 'Sweet Burning in My Heart:' the Spirituality of Jonathan Edwards Address Given at the Launch of the Jonathan Edwards
    ‘Sweet burning in my heart:’ The Spirituality of Jonathan Edwards Address given at the launch of the Jonathan Edwards Centre, Ridley College, Melbourne, 29 April 2010. Introduction: who was Jonathan Edwards? Habitually, Jonathan Edwards inspires apparently-extravagant claims. Try this for size. ‘When the Church in Australia wakes up to Jonathan Edwards it will experience true revival’. So I passionately believed in 1985 at the conclusion of a life-changing study leave at Yale, working on the Jonathan Edwards papers in the Bieneke, the university’s library with the translucent marble walls. Here Edwards’s papers are studied alongside first-century papyri and receive the same scientific scrutiny. In that year I went to the launch of the seventh volume of the Yale edition of Edwards’ works. Since then a further 19 volumes have been published. Together they surely must represent one of the great achievements of twentieth-century historical scholarship. The selection of Ridley College, Melbourne, as an overseas campus of the Jonathan Edwards Center at Yale, depending on your religious beliefs, is either auspicious or providential. The potential of this antipodean outpost to bless the Australian Church is incalculable. Rhys Bezzant, who is writing his doctoral thesis on Edwards, and is the human vehicle for this happy development, is to be warmly congratulated. Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) is often called the last of the Puritans and the first of the evangelicals. But he is also first in the sense that he is preeminent among evangelicals: none has approached within light years either of his ability or his spirituality.

  • The Reformation (1500-1648)
    EXPOSITORY PREACHING DURING THE REFORMATION (1500-1648) In noting the relation of the Reformation to preaching, Dargan said the “great events and achievements of that mighty revolution were largely the work of preachers and preaching; for it was by the Word of God through the ministry of earnest men who believed, loved and taught it, that the best and most enduring work of the Reformation was done.”1 Despite centuries of dismal preaching, God utilized both pre-reformers such as Wycliffe and Huss and reformatory voices such as Luther, Calvin, and Zwingli to restore preaching to the central position in worship. The dawn of the Sixteenth Century displayed both social and religious institutions that were ripe for reform. Homiletical contributions from this period have reverberated through the centuries and can still be noted in contemporary expository preaching. The Social Setting that led to Spiritual Reformation The beginning of the Sixteenth Century brought little change from the previous century on the national leadership horizon, but changes made shortly thereafter would provide voices of support for religious reformation. One of those voices was Charles V, who came to power in Germany in 1519. In Charles V, Luther would eventually find a sympathetic voice. Other rulers such as England’s Henry VIII, Edward VI, and Elizabeth provided leadership that contributed to the pursuit of Protestantism in their country. A general disdain for the papacy was building amongst numerous national leaders, which led to England, France, Bohemia, and Italy separating from subordination to the Pope and opened a political door for a religious reformation.2 Beyond national leadership, the social developments and affairs of the people also contributed to reform.

  • Expository Preaching and the Recovery of Christian Worship (Part One) by Albert Mohler
    Dear Students of PM 525 Below are several posted by Albert Mohler on the primacy of preaching. Not required reading but thought you might be interested. Dr. Ed Scearce Expository Preaching and the Recovery of Christian Worship (Part One) By Albert Mohler Expository preaching is central, irreducible, and nonnegotiable to the Bible’s mission of authentic worship that pleases God. John Stott’s simple declaration states the issue boldly: “Preaching is indispensable to Christianity.” More specifically, preaching is indispensable to Christian worship–and not only indispensable, but central. Tuesday, August 9, 2005 Evangelical Christians have been especially attentive to worship in recent years, sparking a renaissance of thought and conversation on what worship really is and how it should be done. Even if this renewed interest has unfortunately resulted in what some have called the “worship wars” in some churches, it seems that what A. W. Tozer once called the “missing jewel” of evangelical worship is being recovered. Nevertheless, if most evangelicals would quickly agree that worship is central to the life of the church, there would be no consensus to an unavoidable question: What is central to Christian worship? Historically, the more liturgical churches argued that the sacraments form the heart of Christian worship. These churches argue that the elements of the Lord’s Supper and the water of baptism most powerfully present the gospel. Among evangelicals, some present a call for evangelism as the heart of worship, planning every facet of the service–songs, prayers, sermon– with the evangelistic invitation in mind. Though most evangelicals mention the preaching of the word as a necessary or customary part of worship, the prevailing model of worship in evangelical churches is increasingly defined by music, along with innovations such as drama and video presentations.
