Book Notes

WTS-CA's most recent faculty symposium is now in print, and the responses are already starting! Is anyone surprised about that?


Covenant, Justification, and Pastoral Ministry
Essays by the Faculty of Westminster Seminary California

R. Scott Clark

Price: 24.99

The doctrine of justification and covenant theology are two of the most basic and yet most misunderstood doctrines in the contemporary Reformed world. This volume addresses both doctrines carefully, biblically, theologically, and practically. Few books address both covenant theology and justification, and relate these two doctrines to our confessions and virtually no treatments address it from the point of view of the theological departments: Exegetical theology, Systematic Theology, Historical Theology, and Practical Theology. This volume is intended for an academic audience but it is accessible to intelligent laity.

Here's what Andrew Sandlin says: "The Center for Cultural Leadership announces it will be publishing a symposium in response to Covenant, Justification, and Pastoral Ministry: Essays by the Faculty of Westminster Seminary California, P & R Publishing Company, edited by Scott Clark. The provisional title of our symposium is A Faith That Is Never Alone: A Response to the Faculty of Westminster Seminary California, edited by P. Andrew Sandlin. Contributors include John H. Armstrong, John M. Frame, Don Garlington, Mark Horne, P. Andrew Sandlin, and Norman Shepherd. We will post more information here and elsewhere as the project moves forward."

Kind of reminds one of the good ole days when Gary North was cranking out "responses" to Westminster Seminary, Philadelphia volumes!
