Reason From Scripture
Information
| Blog Name: | Reason From Scripture |
| Url: | http://reasonfromscripture.blogspot.com/ |
| Language: | English |
| Topics: | Philosophy, Theology, Apologetics |
| Description: | "Reason From Scripture" is a site devoted to discussing Philosophy from the perspective of Reformed Christian Theology. Topics will include the use of Analytic philosophical categories to explain and defend Reformed Theology (and Theism more broadly), defenses of Reformed Biblical exegesis, as well as other areas of contemprary concern in philosophy and apologetics. Because of the informal, personal nature of some of the articles on this site, THE AUTHORS WOULD LIKE TO INVITE YOUR QUESTIONS ABOUT REFORMED THEOLOGY (OR CHRISTIANITY IN GENERAL). Have you ever wondered what Reformed theology teaches about the Holy Spirit? Church authority? The baptism of infants? What really happens in the Lord's Supper (Communion)? Feel free to send a message to any of the authors via facebook, and they promise to respond on the site within 1-2 weeks. After they have resopnded to your question, you can continue to interact with them via the comments section on each post. |

J. I. Packer on Reading the Bible
One of the primary causes for the current state of theological disarray in evangelicalism:Let us read the Bible then — if we can. But can we? The truth is that many of us have lost the ability to read the Bible. When we open our Bibles, we do so in a frame of mind which forms an insuperable barrier to our ever reading it at all. This may sound startling, but it is not hard to show that it is true.When you sit down to any other book, you treat it as a unit. You look for the plot, or the main thread of the argument, and follow it through to the end. You let the author's mind lead yours. Whether or not you allow yourself to "dip" before settling down to th

Does The Church Have Authority?
At the Eastern Orthodox blog, The Well of Questions, blogger MG has been arguing for some time (most recently, here) that Protestants do not in fact believe that the church has any authority. Rather, we merely believe that the church has been right in those doctrines which it has affirmed at all times and in all places (the “catholic” faith) and that it is better to read the Bible in the light of tradition and the history of doctrine than in isolation. But, MG says, this only amounts to a belief that the church is accurate, not that i
