  • An Examination of Three Recent Philosophical Arguments Against Hierarchy in the Immanent Trinity
    “A profoundly insightful book.” –Sam Storms, Lead Pastor for Preaching and Vision, Bridgeway Church, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma One GodOne in Three Persons Unity of Essence, Distinction of Persons, Implications for Life How do the three persons of the Trinity relate to each other? Evangelicals continue to wrestle with this complex issue and its implications for our understanding of men’s and women’s roles in both the home and the church. Challenging feminist theologies that view the Trinity as a model for evangelical egalitarianism, One God in Three Persons turns to the Bible, church history, philosophy, and systematic theology to argue for the eternal submission of the Son to the Father.

Smith One of my responsibilities as Library Director at Baptist Bible College is overseeing the development of our library’s collection. Over the last seven years we’ve spent more than $350,000 on books, periodicals, on-line databases, and other media. Needless to say, I’ve learned a lot about selecting library resources during this time. Of course, building one’s private library is different from developing a collection to support the research activities of hundreds of students and faculty. Nevertheless, I’ve found that many of the strategies I employ in building the Vick Library’s collection have served me well as I’ve expanded my personal library. Below I will share seven principles of library development that should enable readers to build effective collections while wasting minimal amounts of time, money, and shelf space.

  • Chapter One Recent Developments in the Doctrine of Scripture D
    CHAPTER ONE RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE DOCTRINE OF SCRIPTURE D. A. Carson .......tr ___________ ~ CHAPTER ONE RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE DOCTRINE OF SCRIPTURE The pattern of Christian thought that emerged from the Reforma­ tion is often summed up under the three phrases: sola gratia, sola fides, and sola Scriptura. When I was a boy! I sometimes wondered how logic could be preseIVed if there were three statements each claiming that something or other was "sola"; but in due course I learned that grace is the sole ground of salvation! faith is the sole means of salvation! and the Scriptures are the sole ultimate authority for faith and life-all set in the context of the polemics of the Reformation period. Precisely because the Reformers' theological formulations were shaped by the controversies of their age! it is clear that the "faith and life" formula was meant to be an all-embracing rubric! not a limiting one. They claimed that the deposit of truth lies in the Bible! not in the church or in the magisterium of the church. Their concern! in other words! was to spell out the locus of authority in order to rebut their Roman Catholic opponents! not to restrict the range of the Bible's authority to religious life and thought! away from history and the natural world.l The modern disjunction would have seemed strange to them. This side of the EnlightenmenC debate over the Scriptures soon moved on to broader matters. Although the history of these debates has been chronicled many times!2 a great deal of detailed work still needs to be done.

    Ord, Leaving the Gathered Community 131 Leaving the Gathered Community: Porous Borders and Dispersed Practices Mark Ord A Baptist ecclesiology of the gathered community coupled with a characteristic concern for mission has led to a dynamic of gathering and sending within British Baptist worship. This engenders a demarcation between the church and the world, and a sense of a substantial boundary between the two. In this article I explore the metaphor of the boundary between the church and the world. In doing so, I examine recent theological proposals that present formation as taking place within the worship of the gathered community for the purpose of mission. I propose a picture of the boundary as porous and its formation necessarily occurring, both within the church and the world, through worship and witness. I argue that church–world relations are complex and cannot be described as ‘one way’ — from worship to witness. The article concludes by pointing to the need for sacramental practices for the church in dispersed mode, for example hospitality, as well as for the church gathered, for example baptism and communion. This implies recognising that there are graced practices of the church and indwelt sacramentality which find their rightful place in the context of witness in the world, by leaving the gathered community. Keywords Baptist ecclesiology; sacraments; mission; practices Baptist Ecclesiology: Local, Missional, Individualistic Baptists have long been characterised by ecclesiological concerns for both the local congregation and mission. In his book, Baptist Theology, Stephen Holmes states: ‘There are two foci around which Baptist life is lived: the individual believer and the local church’.1 These are classic concerns for the visible church, ‘gathered by covenant’,2 or as Thomas Helwys expressed it at the start of the seventeenth century, ‘A company of faithful people, separated from the world by the word and Spirit of God […] upon their own confession of faith and sins.’3 Mission does not have quite the same pedigree.
