Views on God’s Wrath in Romans 1
This week I’m preaching on Romans 1:18-32 – probably one of the most culturally offensive passages of scripture – but also one of the most important for it shows us the reality of God’s wrath against sinful humanity. One of the more “offensive” parts is that God is a God of wrath. Culture hates this.Continue reading “Views on God’s Wrath in Romans 1”
Exploring Christology and Atonement with CMT
In Exploring Christology and Atonement: Conversations with John McLeod Campbell, H.R. Mackintosh and T.F. Torrance Andrew Purves unites two often divided aspects of Christology – the person and work of Christ.

Tolerance is impossible…
To insist that all religions are right, that all the roads are going to the same place, is actually silly… We’d have to be intellectually intolerant. Hitler, for example, believed he was on a divine mission… Nazism really had very religious roots, and yet the world by consensus has decided that it’s not valid.

The Eternal Subordination of the Son and Divorce in the Southern Baptist Convention
HT: Scot McKnight Wade Burleson — I’ve seen very few willing to state the matter so boldly and to point the finger not only at false thinking but also at the condition of marriages in the SBC: How can the divorce rate in every state in the union be declining while at the same time the Southern BaptistContinue reading “The Eternal Subordination of the Son and Divorce in the Southern Baptist Convention”
The Centrality of Christ
Torrance recalls H.R. Mackintosh’s emphasis on the centrality of Christ: H.R Mackintosh used to press home to us again and again the perfect oneoness of Jesus Christ with the innermost being of the Father. He used to refer with great awe to “one of the best accredited parts of the tradition Jesus is recorded toContinue reading “The Centrality of Christ”
