Covenantal Apologetics by K. Scott Olimphint
The subject of "presuppositional apologetics" has way too many terms to learn and philosophical concepts to graps for me. I only started the book, but its written in regular language that just about anyone can understand. Olimphint says some things I have no knowledge of. He says this method is "covenantal apologetics." He says that to title it "reformed apologetics" would be too broad. I must admit ignorance of the specifics of the variety of reformed apologetics. I have heard many of the names, but do not know the differences.
I will have to say more as I read more. I think this books gives good insight into the apologetical task which non-Philosopers can grasp. Romans 1, Peter, Acts, and several texts establish his concepts in the early part of the book.
Pre-suppositional apologetics is a scary subject that can be hard to read, but this books seems an easy read.
Has anyone finished the book?
