There are at least a few signs that point in this direction. One could mention the new brief statement of faith that was commissioned by the General Assembly several years ago and that will soon come before the church for final discussion and action; the rising expecta- tions of many Presbyteries that candidates for ordination be well-versed in the Reformed theological tradition; and the growing awareness that as we enter the final decade of this century the social, cultural, and spiritual crises of our world are so formidable as to compel us all to take up the theological task with new seriousness. Preoccupation with a particular theological tradition can of course be more problematic than promising. It could signal retreat to a romanticized past; it could mean that the church is anxious, defensive, uncertain of itself and its future, and hence eager to find safety and security in what is familiar and provincial. But we venture to hope that the new interest in the Presby- terian church in what it means to be Reformed has a very different basis. Anxiety for a narrow denominational identity has never been what the Re- formed theological heritage has stood for at its best. Neither Calvin nor Edwards nor Barth, giants of the Reformed tradition, construed his theolog- ical responsibility in narrow terms. Their major writings Institutes of the Christian Religion, The End Which God Created the World and The for , Church Dogmatics—intended to serve the Word of God that gathers, nour- ishes, and commissions the whole church. For Reformed theology it is this Word of God decisively spoken in Jesus Christ that again and again sum- mons the church and theology to reform of faith and life. Willingness to let God begin anew with us, openness to God’s transforming and reordering judgment and grace— this is Reformed existence. As is well-known to readers of this journal, the spirit of the Reformed tradition is enshrined in the motto, Ecclesia reformata semper reformanda: the church reformed, always in need of reform. This motto covers every aspect of the life of the church, including and especially its theology. Sovereignty of God, elect people, salvation by grace alone, authority of Scripture, the sanctification of every dimension of life—these and other great motifs of the Reformed tradition are not slogans to be mechanically repeated but themes that require fresh interpretation in concrete situations. Reformed theology needs to be continually liberated from routinization and misuse for the 2 THE PRINCETON SEMINARY BULLETIN faithful proclamation and service of the living Word of God. Perhaps the astonishing movements of political and social reform sweeping Eastern Eu- rope today will help to remind us of the global importance of the witness of the Christian church to a w'ay of life that is always ready to be reformed. In different ways the articles in this issue display the vitality and promise, the diversity and tensions, of Reformed theology today. Describing what is distinctive about Reformed theology, Jane Dempsey Douglass underscores the point that it represents not a fossilized but a living and growing tradition of faith. Diogenes Allen explores the new openness to faith in our “post- modern” situation and calls the church to a new confidence in presenting the full wealth of Christian conviction. Charles West reexamines the life and legacy of the influential Reformed Czechoslovakian theologian, Joseph Hromadka, who taught theology and ethics at Princeton from 1939 to 1947. George Marsden reconsiders the work of a very different but no less contro- versial Princeton theologian, J. Gresham Machen. Finally, Raymond Fung contends that the world-wide Christian mission needs to show the spirit of continuing reform since it can no longer be carried out in a one-sided, im- perialistic manner but must be a mission in “waiting" as well as in “reaching out.” Daniel L. Migliore Editor Jane Dempsey Douglass is the Hazel What is Thompson McCord Professor of Historical “Reformed Theology”? Theology at Princeton Seminary.

They do not prove the real connection between the religious symbols and the everyday realities by logical demonstration, but by life. Solvitur ambulando, said someone about Zeno’s paradox, which proves the impossibility of physical motion. It is solved by walking. Solvitur immolando, says the saint, about the paradox of the logicians. It is solved by sacrifice. —Austin Farrer v ABSTRACT 1. A perennial (if controversial) concern in both theology and philosophy of religion is whether religious belief is ‘reasonable’. Austin Farrer (1904-1968) is widely thought to affirm a positive answer to this concern. Chapter One surveys three interpretations of Farrer on ‘the believer’s reasons’ and thus sets the stage for our investigation into the development of his religious epistemology. 2. The disputed question of whether Farrer became ‘a sort of fideist’ is complicated by the many definitions of fideism.

  • Our “Presbyterian Virtues” by Dean K. Thompson President and Professor of Ministry Emeritus Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary
    Our “Presbyterian Virtues” by Dean K. Thompson President and Professor of Ministry Emeritus Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary My purpose is to share with you—reverently and expectantly—insights gleaned over a period of fifty years regarding several interrelated marks and gifts found in our Presbyterian/Reformed heritage, discipleship, teachings, and DNA. I have discovered that as Presbyterians think and talk about “God, Persons, Church, and World,” we do so through several signposts of strength and vision that help define our callings and identities as a people. I like to refer to these strengths and hallmarks as our “Presbyterian virtues.” I suggest this framework due to an article I stumbled on by Daniel Jenkins, a British theologian who used to teach at Princeton Theological Seminary. His article is titled “Marianne Moore: A Presbyterian Poet?”1 Moore’s brother was a Presbyterian minister, and she was for years a faithful member of the Lafayette Avenue Presbyterian Church in Brooklyn. Jenkins suggests that Moore’s remarkable poetry exemplifies the following Presbyterian virtues: the life of the mind; enjoyment of the natural creation; humility and self-criticism arising out of the awareness of justification by faith alone; love of the simple life contrasted with a life colored by pomposity, egocentrism, ostentation, and “highbrowism;” a deep sense of awe before God and the mysteries of the faith; and a strong awareness of our public responsibility.2 Across the years, I have been fond of saying that at our best we “Presbyterians are thinking people with warm hearts”—as this wonderful poem by Marianne Moore illustrates: Fragments of sin are a part of me, New brooms shall sweep clean the heart of me.

  • Christian Ethics
    5 Book One Living Under God’s Law: Christian Ethics 6 Part One: Introductory Considerations 7 Chapter 1: Introduction The Christian life is a rich journey, and it is not easy to describe. Without any pretense of comprehensiveness, I try to describe it in this volume as living under God’s law, in God’s world, in the presence of God himself. Those of you who have read other books of mine will recognize that triad as indicating normative, situational, and existential perspectives respectively. Those of you who haven’t read other books of mine can learn about that triad in the present volume. These three perspectives will provide the main structure of the book. The first part will be the longest—a treatise on Christian ethics. The second will deal with “Living in the World: Christ and Culture,” and the third will be “Living by God’s Grace: Spiritual Maturity.” We begin now with Part One, the treatise on ethics. After some introductory material defining terms and relating ethics to God’s lordship, I shall discuss ethics itself under three perspectives: situational (the history of ethical thought), existential (a Christian ethical method), and normative (Biblical ethical principles, following the pattern of the Ten Commandments). But first a couple of important introductory questions: Why Study Ethics? For the following reasons, at least: 1. Servants of Jesus are people who have his commandments and keep them (John 14:21). Over and over again, Jesus tells us, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments “(John 14:15; compare verses 21, 23, 15:10, 1 John 2:3-5, 3:21- 24, 5:3).1 Jesus’ “new commandment… that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another” (John 13:34) is to be the mark of the church, distinguishing it from the world: “By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another” (verse 35).

His distinctive approach emphasized consistency between methodology and theology in order to defend the Christian faith. Though often neglected, his doctrine of God provided the foundation for his methodology. The nature of who God is informs how we know him and how we interpret his word. The three most prominent contours of his doctrine were: the Creator-creature distinction, incomprehensibility, and the ontological Trinity. The value of these particular emphases is that they are key touchpoints for diagnosing apologetic methods and affirming the Christian system of truth. The nature of his assessment of methodology at the worldview level along these contours has wide-ranging implications for other disciplines, including hermeneutics.
