• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I have to admitt, it was easy reading the first time. Now that's it's sunk in a little and I'm re-reading sections, it's a lot deeper. Bavinck touches on points that I missed the first time or better, I'm able to apply and understanding the second time.

Anyone own this set, what do you think of it?

Reformed Dogmatics has a very solid reputation among Reformed people. Bavinck's systematic theology has been longed for by English readers for a very long time,and the dream is coming to pass. The first two of four volumes have been printed and are available for purchase. The final two are supposed to be out this fall. Bavinck's work is supposed to be superlative!!!
