A pioneering survey of Church History. What is Christianity all about? One answer is it gets us to heaven. This book disagrees. Disagrees because of Genesis 1. Genesis 1 tells us God wants us to subdue the earth and do it as his images. That's what Christianity and Church History is all about, doing what God wants.

THE Christian Trinity

The Athanasian Creed's definition of the Christian Trinity is unintelligible and needs to be discarded. Without reading later trinitarian theology into the Bible, and without presupposing an ontological trinity, it is possible to understand the New Testament doctrine of the trinity in a perfectly acceptable and intelligible manner. This is what you may expect to read in this unique and pastoral treatment of The Christian Trinity.

Paul's Letter to the Romans: A Pastoral Commentary

Paul's letter to the church in Rome - where he had not yet visited - is best understood as Paul writing the things he would otherwise have spoken had he been able to schedule a visit there. Paul wants Jewish and Gentile believers to understand the gospel in such a way that they can live together peaceably in one church. The level of writing is on a pastoral level, not on an academic or professional level, it is the sort of thing a pastor might say in a small Bible study group.

Genesis Survey: Understanding the First Book of the Bible

Does this view of Genesis violate the doctrine of revelation, inspiration, and authority of the scriptures? Indeed not. Surely God could, and did, inspire the unknown persons who wrote and compiled Genesis to write as they did, using whatever sources were at hand. The authority of Biblical versions of ancient legends is not diminished by having been adapted from pre-existing documents of the world from which Abraham came. We may believe that God was in control of the process by which these documents were transmitted, as well as of the modifications made to these ancient documents in the Hebrew accounts. There is no reason to think that the resulting documents which we now have are any less important and authoritative than if they had been provided by God by direct insertion into the minds of the authors. We may have confidence that the final result of the editorial process by which the Bible came to be written is precisely what God wanted it to be.

We need to confess and truly believe that all authority on earth has been given to Jesus and that he exercises that authority by means of the gospel and the Holy Spirit. But not only must we believe this, as if there is no evidence for it, but we must come to see that authority at work century after century in the history of the western world. Furthermore we must see the results of that authority in the concrete structures of human culture in the countries where the gospel has had most effect. Real history, real success, real shaping of civilization by the truth of the gospel of the Lord Jesus. Time is moving onward under the decisive power of truth, justice, love, and peace.

JESUS in PAUL'S LETTERS A Pastoral Analysis This project began as an exploration of the somewhat baffling things Paul writes about Jesus in his letters to the churches in Colossae and Ephesus. Having completed those studies I turned to the oft-misunderstood kenosis passage in Philippians, and from there decided to look at all the letters of Paul to see what they meant for Christology. Paul is clearly not Christocentric in his theology. He is Theocentric, so that his Christology is a subset of Theology, and his Soteriology becomes a subset of both Theology and Christology. Thus: trinitarian.
