What I'm Reading -- How About You?

[Apologetic_Warrior]

More of a Gordon Clark man, myself...

The whole Van Til/Clark "controversy" is kinda sad in my opinion. I think John Robbins is to Clark, what Bahnsen was to Van Til. To be honest though, a great deal of Trinity Foundation efforts are focused in overly negative light. Clark is worth reading in my opinion, I own a number of his books, among them, one of the few logic textbooks written by a Christian. The others I know of, one written by Issac Watts (Reformed), Norman Geisler ("moderate Calvinist" whatever that is), Peter Kreeft (Catholic), and most recently Joel McDurmon (Reformed). I'd say in general though, most people are just not "into" writing logic texts...they tend to get dry fast. lol

I'm on to -rereading "The Trial of Job" by Silas Durand. It can be found in epub format here.

Durand views Job as a type of the church and his friends as rank Arminians. He seems steady in his typology, not going overboard missing the person of Job for the type and he doesn't accuse Job's friends of free will works religions without giving reasons for doing so.

Excellent read and can't wait to go through it again.

Vindiciae Contra Tyrannos by Junius Brutus

Communion Sermons by Samuel Rutherford

I am intrigued to see whether Rutherford gives the same attention to the issue of a true table as Gillespie does in his Treatise of Miscellany Questions.

The death of death in the death of Christ - John Owen.

The Great Hunt - Robert Jordan

On Wednesday at Church our group decided to do a study over the book of Romans using John Macarthur's study tools. I am pleased and excited. This could be a breakthrough for many.

Owen's work is superb!

I found "Travels of True Godliness" by Keach in epub. Good so far.

VCViking, the quote by Spurgeon in your signature is one of my favorite all time quotes. It encourages me to be bold about my faith.
