  • MC 601K—Reformed Ecclesiology and Polity Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary Instructor: Preston Graham Jr
    MC 601K—Reformed Ecclesiology and Polity Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary Instructor: Preston Graham Jr. Fall Semester 2007 (Fridays: 1:15-4:15) Course Description: No extent of space interferes with the boundless energy of the Spirit, which transfuses life into us from the flesh of Christ. John Calvin, Corpus Reformatorum A lofty conception of the sacramental nature of the church indeed! And yet it formed the basis for John Calvin’s conception of the church as the New Covenant temple of God, so much so that He would later declare, Beyond the pale of the Church, no forgiveness of sins, no salvation, can be hoped for... and hence the abandonment of the Church is always fatal? John Calvin, Institutes (4.1.4) This course will seek to construct an ecclesial and pastoral theology in conversation with the historic Reformed tradition together with its practical relevance to contemporary ministry. Divided into two parts, ecclesial and pastoral theology respectively, both topics will be explored beginning with a redemptive-historical analysis moving to a confessional analysis and then finally to a contemporary analysis. The theological premise reflected throughout the course concerns the sacramental nature of the gospel, or the mediated presence of God unto salvation, as this then is reflected in a “temple” theology of the church and a “priestly” theology of the pastorate, albeit reflected in the classic reformed tradition. Our theological construction will result in both a “High gospel” (gospel centered and missional) and a “High Church” (confessional, sacramental and communal) spirituality relevant to today’s emergent ministry. Course Structure and Requirements: Structure: The course will be set up as a readings course coupled with classroom discussions and presentations.

  • John Williamson Nevin on the Atonement: How the Eucharist Brings Atonement Home
    John Williamson Nevin on the Atonement: How the Eucharist Brings Atonement Home Through Union Roth Prize Submission The Mercersburg Theology Society By Dan Glover Vancouver, British Columbia Spring, 2019 1 Some theologians find the atonement theology of American “high church Calvinist,” John Williamson Nevin (1803-1886), deficient.1 This charge arose in debates with Charles Hodge (1797-1878) over the theology of the Lord’s Supper. Nevin defended Calvin and the Reformed tradition’s sacramental understanding of the Supper; Hodge argued for a basically Zwinglian memorialist position.2 As both men detailed their understandings of the eucharist, the argument drew in the entirety of their respective theologies.3 Each one’s understanding of communion was ultimately based on what he considered to be the centre of Christian faith: the satisfaction theory of the atonement for Hodge, and the incarnation for Nevin.4 Nevin characterizes the conflict: “What [Hodge] is offended with is the conception of sacramental religion, as distinguished from a religion of mere individual spirituality….Justification by faith and sacramental grace are, in his view, incompatible conceptions.”5 Because Nevin disagreed that the satisfaction theory of the atonement was the central principle of the Christian faith, Hodge and others have judged his theology of the atonement, and by implication his entire theological system, as dangerously deficient if not outright heretical. However, Nevin’s theology of the atonement must be considered within his overarching 1 D. G.

Truth be told, however, they were also rather skeptical. Why the skepticism? It is universally acknowledged that Hauerwas is both engaged and engaging, actively involved in wide-ranging conversations with academics, pastors, doctors, and—yes—even lawyers. Furthermore, no one would deny that arguments rooted in the Christian theological tradition have made their way into American law over the years. Indeed, in 1892, a Supreme Court opinion unselfconsciously proclaimed that “this is a Christian nation.”1 “A Christian nation”? Ah-ha! Many Christian theologians would say there is the problem in a nutshell.

  • Book Reviews & Short Notices
    MJT 16 (2005) 165-243 BOOK REVIEWS & SHORT NOTICES Thomas Asbridge, The First Crusade, A New History: The Roots of Conflict between Christianity and Islam (New York: Oxford University Press, 2004). Pp. xvi + 408. ISBN 0-19-517823-8. $35.00. Few things are more disputed or discussed today than the swirl of issues surrounding the relationship between Islam and the West. Note carefully that I say “the West” and not “the Christian religion.” Christendom, or the domination of the Christian religion in all of society’s institutions, including the state, no longer exists, as it did during the time of the Crusades when West versus East meant Christendom versus Islam. While much of Islam may view the current Iraq War and even the September 11, 2001, attacks as part of the historic battle of Christian versus Muslim, and while there are elements of that classic warfare present in the current struggles, we must never identify the actions of the American (or any other) government with those of the Christian church. While we may rightly lament the secularization of the state and other societal institutions, we should not confuse secularization with the question of the institutional separation of the church and the state. There are confessional Christians nowadays who see the institutional separation of the two as a Western, or even more, an American historical oddity that has proven to be a bane rather than a blessing, contributing signally to the irreligiousness and immorality of the West, which suffers, frankly, from the separation of God and state, not simply church and state as institutions.

Daniel A. Betters ―The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.‖ Mark 2:27-28 (NIV) This project developed during my personal study for the ordination trials of the Presbyterian Church in America. I noticed that many candidates would take an exception to the Westminster Confession of Faith concerning the view on the Sabbath. Consequently, I began to wonder what my view would be concerning the Lord‘s Day. As I began to study the Scriptures concerning the Lord‘s Day I became more aware of the importance of the fourth commandment. I began to present my findings in my teaching and preaching opportunities. I found there was resistance to any observance of the Lord‘s Day in many church members for various reasons.

  • Theology Courses, 2014-2016
    April 24, 2014 Theology Christian Ethics ET1000cr The Liturgical Shape of Christian Life Each aspect of a worship service will be used to discuss corresponding Christian doctrines, how these doctrines give shape to Christian identity, and how they inform Christian moral reflection and action. The course will be grounded in the Reformed tradition, while encouraging students to examine theology, worship, and ethics in light of their own denominational stance and personal commitments. Specifically, though not exclusively, offered for students with little background in the academic study of theology.
