  • Tim Keller June, 2010
    WHAT’S SO GREAT ABOUT THE PCA Tim Keller June, 2010 My first General Assembly was the PCA’s third, held in Jackson, Mississippi just under thirty-five years ago. Ever since then, I’ve seen a lot of conflict in our communion. My friends in other denominations ask, ‘isn’t there something inherently wrong with a denomination that is filled with such tensions?’ Now church fights are always fueled in part by ego and spiritual immaturity, and we must all share responsibility for that. But I propose that these struggles are also a sign of something good, even uniquely good, about our denomination. I believe our conflicts lie in that we are one of the few Presbyterian denominations that hasn’t pruned of one or more of its historic branches. Within the Reformed churches, there has always been a tension between what George Marsden calls ‘the Reformed branches’--the doctrinalist, pietistic and culturalist impulses.1 (Please read this footnote.) To understand the PCA today, we must trace out the history of these branches in American Presbyterianism. Spiritual revival and the ‘sides’ of Presbyterianism Reformed Christianity puts a high value on the objective—on theological soundness and creedal subscription. But it has also historically given a lot of attention to the subjective. Reformed soteriology holds that salvation is not a human product—it is God’s work. This emphasis has drawn attention to the 1 I am going to use George Marsden’s terminology to describe the Reformed Branches, even though they are rather bland, and each on is bit negative.

  • The Agĩkũyũ, the Bible and Colonial Constructs: Towards an Ordinary African Readers‟ Hermeneutics
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by University of Birmingham Research Archive, E-theses Repository THE AGĨKŨYŨ, THE BIBLE AND COLONIAL CONSTRUCTS: TOWARDS AN ORDINARY AFRICAN READERS‟ HERMENEUTICS. by JOHNSON KĨRIAKŨ KĨNYUA A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Theology and Religion College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham February 2010 . [1] ABSTRACT THE AGĨKŨYŨ, THE BIBLE AND COLONIAL CONSTRUCTS: TOWARDS AN ORDINARY AFRICAN READERS‟ HERMENEUTICS. By Johnson Kĩriakũ Kĩnyua February 2010 (346 Pages) Recognising the paradigm shift in African biblical studies where the image of a “decontextualized and non-ideological” scientific Bible reader is slowly being replaced with one of a “contextualized and ideological” reader, this research seeks to explore and understand the role of the “ordinary readers” in the development of biblical interpretation in colonial Kenya. It seeks to understand whether the semi- illiterate and illiterate can engage the Bible as capable hermeneuts. The study uses postcolonial criticism to recover and reconstruct the historical encounters of the Agĩkũyũ with the Bible. It reveals that ordinary African readers actively and creatively engaged biblical texts in the moment of colonial transformation using several reading strategies and reading resources. Despite the colonial hegemonic positioning, these Africans hybridised readings from the Bible through retrieval and incorporation of the defunct pre-colonial past; creating interstices that became sites for assimilation, questioning and resistance. The study proposes an African hermeneutic theory that accepts both scholarly readers and the ordinary readers with respect to biblical interpretation as constitutive of a community of readers positioned in a particular sociocultural milieu.

  • In Defense of Christian Faith and a Democratic Future on the Trump Presidency: from Members of the Princeton Seminary Faculty Fe
    In Defense of Christian Faith and a Democratic Future On the Trump Presidency: From Members of the Princeton Seminary Faculty February 24, 2017 (signers to this statement do not represent the Seminary or the faculty as a whole) We, the undersigned, believe that because God is sovereign over all creation and because all human beings are embraced by God’s all encompassing grace, the god of Donald Trump’s “America first” nationalism is not the God revealed in our scriptures. Regardless of our specific political persuasions we agree that the attitudes fostered by this nationalism are inconsistent with Christian values of welcoming the stranger as if we were welcoming Christ, of seeking to distinguish truth from deception and conceit, and of believing that no institution or government can demand the kind of loyalty that belongs only to God. We also believe that the policies and approach embraced by the Trump administration run counter to democratic values, as executive orders and members of the new administration’s cabinet often seek to demonize Islam, foster white supremacy, compromise the rule of law and intimidate judges, undermine the empowerment of women, ignore the destruction of the environment, promote homophobia, unleash unfounded fears of crime that worsen the “law and order” abuses of police and security forces. We reject the pervasive aim of placing the monetary gain of wealthy classes over the welfare of its citizenry by undermining education, quality employment, and health care. We believe that Christian faith and US democracy are not the same thing; hence, we stand against the notion of a “Christian nation.” But as Christians who are also citizens or residents of the US, we stand against the attitudes and policies that are being fostered in this present political climate.

  • Professor Dr. Edward A. Dowey, Jr
    Elsie McKee Professor Dr. Edward A. Dowey, Jr. (1918–2003) Professor Dr. Edward A. Dowey, Jr. (1918–2003) Professor Dr. Edward A. Dowey, Jr. (1918–2003) Dr. Edward A. Dowey, specialist in the theology of John Calvin and Hein- rich Bullinger and for many years Professor at Princeton Theological Sem- inary, died at the age of eighty-five on May 5, 2003, after a long and full life of service to the intellectual world and Christian fellowship. Born on Feb. 18, 1918, in Philadelphia, PA, USA, Edward Dowey was the first son of Edward A. and Margaret Turner Dowey. The children of a Pres- byterian minister, Edward and his brother William grew up in a strongly re- ligious household. During his years at university, first at Keystone College and the Lafayette College, exploring Biblical criticism, philosophy, and other exciting challenges, young Edward began to question his belief in God. Dowey was nevertheless drawn to study for the pastoral ministry by John Mackay, President of Princeton Seminary, the premier theological faculty of the Presbyterian Church in the United States. President Mackay himself, and especially Professor Joseph Hromadka, made a deep impression on the young Dowey. In 1943, when he graduated from Princeton Seminary, he was ordained as a pastor and served as chaplain in the United States Navy in the Pacific theatre and then in a Navy hospital, until the end of World War II. In 1946 Edward Dowey took up again his theological studies, first in the United States, then in Switzerland.
