    18-BookReviews JETS 42.3 Page 477 Friday, August 27, 1999 3:58 PM JETS 42/3 (September 1999) 477–555 BOOK REVIEWS Dictionary of Biblical Imagery. Edited by Leland Ryken, James C. Wilhoit, and Tremper Longman III. Downers Grove: InterVarsity, 1998, xxi + 1058, $39.99. Initially one ˜nds some irony in the fact that an inherently left-brained genre—the dictionary—was chosen to promote a right-brained approach to the Bible, the very approach consciously taken by this new and highly touted reference work from Inter- Varsity (henceforth DBI). The book contains a number of attractive features, but it retains signi˜cant weaknesses that may threaten its longevity as “an indispensable reference tool” (in the words of the preface). More on these shortly. According to the editors, the purview of the DBI is “the imagery, metaphors and archetypes of the Bible,” terms for which the introduction gives extensive de˜nitions. There is a wide spectrum of topics, including each book of the Bible, most major Biblical characters, many topics that one would ˜nd in standard Bible dictionaries (e.g. heaven, sacri˜ce), as well as a number with a literary ˘avor (e.g. plot motifs, travel stories). Happily, most of the articles possess an appropriate and readable length. Irksomely, all of them are unsigned (a list of contributors resides at the front), since the editors, we discover in the preface, had to revise “the vast majority” of them and leave their own mark upon many of the entries, sometimes at the expense of the original author’s. The book’s attractive features start with its title.

  • Those Familiar with the Conservative Reformed Subculture in the United
    WTJ 72 (2010): 135-51 DÉJÀ VU ALL OVER AGAIN? THE CONTEMPORARY REFORMED SOTERIOLOGICAL CONTROVERSY IN HISTORICAL PERSPECf IVE WILLIAM B. EVANS hose familiar with the conservative Reformed subculture in the United TStates have likely noticed considerable recent debate on matters soterio- logical (i.e., issues having to do with the doctrine of salvation). Issues long thought settled have emerged with new vigor, new questions have emerged, and long- forgotten or even suppressed aspects of the Reformed tradition have been brought to light. For example, the doctrine of justification by faith, thought by many to be the material principle of the Reformation and a hallmark of Reformed Christianity, is now under intense discussion in a variety of circles. Related to this are, to use John Murray's influential terminology, issues of redemption accomplished (i.e., the work of Christ) and redemption applied (i.e., the nature of the believer's union with Christ and the means of grace). In this article we will look briefly at the prehistory of these matters, where we will discover that there is less novelty in the current discussions than some might initially think. We will then attempt a rough taxonomy of the parties in the debate. Finally, we will offer some observations about the nature and implica­ tions of these debates. I. Prologue Reformed soteriologe particularly in America, has been anything but mono­ lithic. At the risk of oversimplifying a complex process of historical develop­ ment, let us begin with Calvin, who set a formal agenda for most subsequent Reformed thinking by highlighting the Pauline theme of union with Christ.

  • Loving the Way Jesus Loves
    LOVING THE WAY JESUS LOVES JESUS WAY THE LOVING Most people are familiar with the “Love Chapter” of the Bible, 1 Corinthians 13, yet Phil Ryken has something fresh to say. Drawing on the life and ministry of Jesus to illustrate what love is and isn’t, Ryken brings a unique perspective to this commonly quoted passage. Loving the Way Jesus Loves successfully integrates biblical teaching, photography, chapter study guides, and a popular-level writing style—all of which will help you understand the profound love of Christ more deeply and, in turn, learn to love more deeply in response. “A masterful, accessible exposition of this great chapter.” TIM KELLER, New York Times best-selling author, The Reason for God “Simple and profound, this book will almost certainly challenge your presuppositions about love and help you see authentic love in a whole new light.” JOHN MACARTHUR, Pastor-Teacher, Grace Community Church “Let this book envelop you altogether in the fullness of the triune God’s exuberant love!” MARVA J. DAWN, Teaching Fellow in Spiritual Theology, Regent College PHIL RYKEN PHIL “This is a gift to the entire church.” R. ALBERT MOHLER JR., President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary “I will always be grateful to Phil Ryken for this profound reminder.” MICHAEL CARD, musician; Bible teacher; author, A Better Freedom PHIL RYKEN is president of Wheaton College and former pastor of Philadelphia’s Tenth Presbyterian Church.

  • The Romantic Rationalist the Romantic Rationalist
    EDITED BY “WE ARE FAR TOO JOHN PIPER & EASILY PLEASED.” DAVID MATHIS C. S. Lewis stands as one of the most influential Christians of the twentieth century. His commitment to the life of the mind and the life of the heart is evident in classics like the Chronicles of Narnia and Mere Christianity—books that illustrate the unbreakable connection between rigorous thought and deep affection. With contributions from Randy Alcorn, John Piper, Philip Ryken, Kevin Vanhoozer, David Mathis, and Douglas Wilson, this volume explores the man, his work, and his legacy—reveling in the truth at the heart of Lewis’s spiritual genius: God alone is the answer to our deepest longings and the source of our unending joy. “Altogether an interesting, lively, and thought-provoking read.” Michael Ward, Fellow of Blackfriars Hall, University of Oxford; author, Planet Narnia: The Seven Heavens in the Imagination of C. S. Lewis “A great introduction to and reflection on a remarkable Christian!” Michael A. G. Haykin, Professor of Church History and Biblical Spirituality, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary “Paints a well-rounded, sharply observed portrait that balances criticism with a deep love and appreciation for the works and witness of Lewis.” Louis Markos, Professor of English, Scholar in Residence, and Robert H. Ray Chair of Humanities, Houston Baptist University; author, Restoring Beauty: The Good, the True, and the Beautiful in the Writings of C. S.
