I was very chuffed to receive this in the post today. I couldn't attend my graduation ceremony in Edinburgh, but I had a lovely celebration with my extended family in Sydney. I'm very thankful to so many people who helped make this a reality, especially my beautiful wife Larissa.

@arthur_rankin Well done!

[Matthew Baines @matthewcbaines]

@RefrmedCapybara @CorbyAmos @LondonLyceum @JLSteffaniak Thanks Jason! That’s very kind of you to say! Thomas Ward’s book Ordered by Love is a great introduction to Scotus’s thought. So too is Mary Beth Ingham’s book Scotus for Dunces.

@jaekook_lee Thank you so much, Jaekook! Your own monograph will be amazing!

[Jaekook Lee @jaekook_lee]

This is a fascinating episode of Gisbertus Voetius’s view on the doctrine of participation. You can also find the early modern Scotist tradition, mysticism, and much more :) I look forward to Matthew Baines’s thesis being published soon.

[Matthew Baines @matthewcbaines]

@mikelemoni I am also working with @DrJamesEglinton on a translation of Voetius’s Catechisatie on the Heidelberg Catechism. Again, watch this space! 2/2

[Matthew Baines @matthewcbaines]

You can hear about my PhD research on Gisbertus Voetius’s (1589-1676) doctrine of participation on the latest episode of the @LondonLyceum podcast, out today. Thanks to @JLSteffaniak and the team for having me on the show! https://t.co/bXswdbeOZW

[Matthew Baines @matthewcbaines]

@mikelemoni That’s very kind of you, Mike! My thesis on Voetius’s doctrine of participation is currently being considered for publication by an academic publisher. I can let you know how that goes. 1/2

[Matthew Baines @matthewcbaines]

@DrJamesEglinton Thank you for your very kind words, and for everything I have learned and continue to learn from you!

[Matthew Baines @matthewcbaines]

@jaekook_lee Well done!

[Matthew Baines @matthewcbaines]

@GraySutanto @BarbaraFBrad Thanks for the encouragement! I’m working on it!

[Matthew Baines @matthewcbaines]

@Sbjernegard @Chris86Davidson Not as far as I know. This exploration of the theology of the work has been recently published, but it’s aimed more at a popular level: https://t.co/DIAKptklzn

@DrJamesEglinton Thank you for teaching me to read Dutch! And thank you for teaching me so much about Neo-Calvinism and it’s sources and influences, and for creating a student cohort that I can learn so much from!
