    THE TRINITY REVIEW For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare [are] not fleshly but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ.

The school’s roots are found in two institutions which have long provided evangelical leadership for the Christian church in a variety of ministries. The Conwell School of Theology was founded in Philadelphia in 1884 by the Rev. Russell Conwell, a prominent Baptist minister. In 1889, out of a desire to equip “men and women in practical religious work... and to furnish them with a thoroughly biblical training,” the Boston Missionary Training School was founded by another prominent Baptist minister, the Rev. Adoniram J. Gordon. The Conwell School of Theology and Gordon Divinity School merged in 1969 through the efforts of philanthropist J.

    <? To the Board-of Trustees of Wheaton College:' This is submitted, ao the report of the Committee appointed at the June meeting to investigate oertain questions which had arisen with respect to the teaching of Dr. Gordon H. Clark. Your Committee met with Dr. Clark and conferred with him at iength about the questions which had arisen and particularly xfc»ii£ as to his personal beliefs in certain theologiot.1 doctrines. we' are glad that we can commend hi-a frankness, and. we do not question his scholarly attainments or the intellectual; quality of his teaching. In moot reepecte we do not believe that his "Christian beliefs would differ materially from those...of others either of the faculty or of the trustees. However, he holds certain views, originating with John Calvin or with' imitators of Calvin, whion go, beyond what we could endorse. He carries th.e truth that God ie th,e original Being to... the,ipoint where he frankly states that God is the author even of evil; and he identifies the sins whioh are committed with God* a plan, to the point,, as^ we understand him, of saying that God purposed that they should be committed. To his mind these views] neither alleviate'the* guilt of the sinn&e^nor the need and duty of preaching Irighteousness and salvation. This situation may be better- understood fi we quote a few particular beliefs whioh he holds: r .

    COURSE SYLLABUS The Doctrine of Man and Sin Course Lecturer: Roger R. Nicole, ThD, PhD Former Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Reformed Theological Seminary Prepared By: Frank T. Jones, MAR Course Description As ambassadors for Christ and the gospel, we must understand the true nature of man and the magnitude of his sin. This course presents a critical and historical overview of positions regarding the nature of mankind: both as the image of God and as corrupted by sin. The course presents a distinct Reformed anthropology coupled with a fair treatment of differing views and objections. Important and controversial questions regarding the origin of evil, the nature of man, and the effects of sin on humanity are all considered, allowing students to draw informed conclusions on these and other key issues. Course Objectives Upon completion of the course, you should be able to: • Understand and define the key terms used in the discussion of anthropology. • Explain the Reformed perspective on mankind as the image of God and as a fallen creation, and interact with views on the origin of evil. • Interact with alternative viewpoints and offer arguments which support both sides of various issues. • Understand the study of anthropology within its historical context.

    Scripture As Talisman, Specimen, and Dragoman

    JETS 50/1 (March 2007) 3–30 SCRIPTURE AS TALISMAN, SPECIMEN, AND DRAGOMAN edwin m. yamauchi* I would like to call attention to three contrasting attitudes towards the Jewish and Christian Scriptures by my title. Scripture as Talisman repre- sents the use of Scriptures by believers with little knowledge of the original setting of the texts, which are used at times for magical ends and at other times are followed literally without regard to their original contexts. Scripture as Specimen represents the critical analysis of the texts by skeptical scholars who view them simply as objects of academic study without faith in their value as divine revelation. Scripture as Dragoman or “interpreter” represents the scholarly study of Scripture by believers such as ETS members, who seek guidance through careful inquiry into the original setting of the texts to de- termine their significance for us today. According to Anthony C. Thiselton, Even if, for the moment, we leave out of account the modern reader’s historical conditionedness, we are still faced with the undeniable fact that if a text is to be understood there must occur an engagement between two sets of horizons (to use Gadamer’s phrase), namely those of the ancient text and those of the modern reader or hearer.1 i. scripture as talisman 2 Magic is still quite prevalent in many places of the world today such as the Caribbean and Africa.3 The world of the Bible was a world pervaded by belief in magic.4 There are some alleged cases of magic in the OT and in the * Edwin M.
  • The Necessity of Gordon Clark by B.K

    The Necessity of Gordon Clark by B.K

    The Necessity of Gordon Clark by B.K. Campbell With many, I would have to agree, that Gordon Clark is one of the most interesting and prolific philosophers of our time. His works span a huge variety of topics and issues. And the best way to get in touch with the philosophy of Gordon Clark is to read the philosophy of Gordon Clark. Naturally, this is the best way to get in touch with the thought of any philosopher. Clark’s system of thought has largely been misrepresent and misunderstood throughout most of the 21st Century. It will be the topic of this essay to express the importance and necessity of Gordon Clark, to display the depth, power and beauty found in his thinking. Clark employed a method of philosophy that was entirely Christian (a notion that is quite rare, if not, entirely absent in the 21st Century). The rubrics of Clark do not merely cover theology, but stretch out to encompass the whole of human thought, as Carl F. H. Henry has said “Among articulate Christian philosophers on the American scene, none has addressed the broad sweep of contemporary concerns from an evangelical Protestant view more comprehensively than Gordon H. Clark”i; Clarks aim was to produce a comprehensive theory of knowledge.ii The fundamental strength behind Clark’s philosophy is his intense dedication to the authority of scripture. Many of today’s modern theologians and Christian philosophers superficially endorse the authority of scripture, they do not take all of scripture; in fact, there are a few who are simply embarrassed by the authority of scripture.iii There is much that can be said about this subtle demise regarding scripture, but for now (because it is not the topic of this essay) we will say that it is most unfortunate and unnecessary.

  • Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy with Exposition

    Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy with Exposition

    Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy with Exposition Background The "Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy" was produced at an international Summit Conference of evangelical leaders, held at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare in Chicago in the fall of 1978. This congress was sponsored by the International Council on Biblical Inerrancy. The Chicago Statement was signed by nearly 300 noted evangelical scholars, including James Boice, Norman L. Geisler, John Gerstner, Carl F. H. Henry, Kenneth Kantzer, Harold Lindsell, John Warwick Montgomery, Roger Nicole, J. I. Packer, Robert Preus, Earl Radmacher, Francis Schaeffer, R. C. Sproul, and John Wenham. The ICBI disbanded in 1988 after producing three major statements: one on biblical inerrancy in 1978, one on biblical hermeneutics in 1982, and one on biblical application in 1986. The following text, containing the "Preface" by the ICBI draft committee, plus the "Short Statement," "Articles of Affirmation and Denial," and an accompanying "Exposition," was published in toto by Carl F. H. Henry in God, Revelation And Authority, vol. 4 (Waco, Tx.: Word Books, 1979), on pp. 211-219. The nineteen Articles of Affirmation and Denial, with a brief introduction, also appear in A General Introduction to the Bible, by Norman L. Geisler and William E. Nix (Chicago: Moody Press, rev. 1986), at pp. 181-185. An official commentary on these articles was written by R. C. Sproul in Explaining Inerrancy: A Commentary (Oakland, Calif.: ICBI, 1980), and Norman Geisler edited the major addresses from the 1978 conference, in Inerrancy (Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1980). Clarification of some of the language used in this Statement may be found in the 1982 Chicago Statement on Biblical Hermeneutics The Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy Preface The authority of Scripture is a key issue for the Christian church in this and every age.
