@lukestamps Would your baptismal sacramentology be Reformed in the sense that the sign leads to the thing signified when received rightly? Is regeneration, union w/ Christ logically connected to baptism yet temporally baptism functions as a seal of the things signified?

@_matthewpearson @mattjhedges11 And Turretin

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@BradKlassen4 To be fair, they would argue that Paul commands Timothy to do this not all Christians. And Timothy was a bishop (i.e., through the laying of hands/apostolic succession); therefore, this coheres w/ the CCC as cited above. I’m not defending it but it is helpful to steel man.

@lukestamps @HanoverPressLL Any updates on when this will be released? Planning to write a paper on dyothelitism this semester and would love to read it!

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@ssimonnin From “On Christian Doctrine”?

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@DrJimHamilton @PLeithart (2) And wouldn’t a baptismal regenerationalist say “amen” and argue that in all such cases they were not “symbolically saved” through the flood, Red Sea, Sodom, etc. but “actually saved”?

I’m a Baptist and agree w/ you but just curious on your thoughts!

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@DrJimHamilton @PLeithart Couldn’t the paedobaptist say “amen” and argue that it wasn’t just Noah but Noah & his family, all of Israel (parents & children) at the Red Sea, and all of Israel (parents & children) in Isa 8 that are threatened w/ flood-like covenantal judgment; ergo baptize believers & child?

@richbarcellos Would it be right to say that such is only the case for the OT authors and not the NT authors? If so, are there various kinds of inspiration or does the distinction between primary (God) and secondary (apostles) authors still remain in the NT?

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@lukestamps Do you affirm perpetual virginity?

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@richbarcellos What is this from? I’m writing an exegetical paper on 1 Tim 3:14-15, would very much appreciate the resource.

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@NamorPB @bXsurf The NT itself contains proto-creedal statements (1 Cor 8, 15; Col 1; 1 Tim 3:16; 2 Tim 2:8; etc.) as summations on the apostolic kerygma. Not to mention early Christians would have been baptized into the creed, interrogatory symbol (do you believe?)/ declaratory (I believe..) (2)

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@NamorPB @bXsurf But they did…the creed’s form was taken from the Caesarean baptismal symbol. The rule of faith aka a distillation of the apostolic kerygma can be seen possible as early as 1 Clement (per JND Kelly), Ignatius, Irenaeaus, Tertullian, etc. (1)

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@brandon_d_smith How would you define “illumination?” Is it more than a disposition to welcome/receive/recognize the word as the Word of God (1 Thess 2:13)? Does it also entail understanding and insight? If so, any resource recommendations?

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@BradKlassen4 How would you suggest seeing the canonical formation of the Psalter and interpreting it as it stands in its final form (e.g., interpreting Pss 1-2 together and as the front door to the Psalter) while still maintaining human authorial intent over against divine authorial intent?

[Taylor Fernandez @Tayfernan_]

@BradKlassen4 @CraigACarter1 would you care to comment? If I remember correctly, you argued in “Interpreting Scripture with the Great Tradition” that for Calvin the “spiritual” or Christological sense was contained within his understanding of the plain sense, correct?
