Aristotle’s Rhetoric

Posted on Friday, April 18th, 2008 at 4:46 pm

Thanks to those of you who sat and listened to me ramble about thinking, speaking, the use of evidence and arguments, and Aristotle’s view of all of these things last night.  Here is the powerpoint of the chart that I used.  Just don’t tell Dr. Gage what I said about him.  Even if he asks in German Rhetoric.ppt

Sermon from Palm Sunday

I have been slow lately getting my sermons up.  I am not sure that anyone really cares, but just in case, here is Palm Sunday.  I should get around to getting the Easter sermon up in the next couple of days.

New Testament Theology-Paul

Posted on Wednesday, April 9th, 2008 at 6:16 pm

Here are the PowerPoint downloads for the general lectures on understanding Paul’s theology.  The graphic that you will see under “two horizons” comes from the NT Theology lecture by my friend Dr. David Chapman at Covenant Seminary.  You can go to http://www.covenantseminary.edu/worldwide/en/NT216/NT216.asp and hear these great lectures yourself if you would like.  Dr. Chapman is a great scholar and a great professor.

Peter Enns and WTS

Posted on Saturday, April 5th, 2008 at 2:38 pm

Anyone who is at all connected to reformed theology has heard about the theological battle going on at Westminster Seminary.  The battle is over Dr. Peter Enns and a book that he published back in 2005.  While speculation runs rampant on the web, much of it pretty uncharitable, you might find two sites coming at the issue from different sides, informative if you desire to know more about this issue.  You can check out the list of comments put together by Brandon Witherow at http://www.digitalbrandon.com/?p=454 You can also check out the comments at Scot McKnight’s blog where you will find a variety of comments, many from young people who fail to see the need for such a hard line stance on a confession rather than the Scripture.  You can find that discussion here http://www.jesuscreed.org/?p=3654 If you are totally unfamiliar with the issue, I won’t point you to a general article, but advise you rather to spend your time reading something more profitable.
