Theology 101: EITHER the ancient Nicene faith is true Christianity OR the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is true Christianity (or neither is true Christianity). But IN NO CASE can they both be true expressions of the faith once for all delivered to the saints.

Theology 101: Reminder—“church history” is NOT “the study of how everybody throughout history misinterpreted the Bible until we came along.”

[Benjamin L. Gladd @DrGladd]

The second edition of the Beale/Carson Commentary on the NT Use of the OT is well underway.

The goal is to reintroduce this invaluable project to a new generation of students.

♦️ I'm joining Beale and Carson as a general editor.
♦️ The chapters on John and Acts are completely new. Steve Bryan is writing John, and Alan Thompson is writing Acts.
♦️ The remaining chapters are being revised to interact with current secondary literature and add more discussion of allusions.
♦️ Release date is Fall '27—the 20th anniversary of the original volume.

Most of the second edition is complete. So, if you liked the first edition, you'll REALLY like the second.

GOOD NEWS! The @Logos edition of Fathers on the Future is in production and available for pre-order at a great price!

Theology 101: Neither basking in old glories nor pouting over old defeats will move you one step forward toward Christlikeness.

Theology 101: Love God with all you are, love one another, preach Christ, obey his commands, walk by the Spirit, embrace hope.

Goodness. What a prophetic quote from 44 years ago.

Theology 101: It seems to me that churches excel at things the Bible says nothing about while they downplay things the Bible emphasizes.

Theology 101:
Them: “The doctrine of the Trinity isn’t clearly expressed in Scripture, so it isn’t essential to the Christian faith.”
Me: “Is the unity of God clearly in Scripture?”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “Is it essential?”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “Is the deity of the Father clearly in Scripture?”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “Is it essential?”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “Is the deity of the Son clearly in Scripture.”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “Is it essential?”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “Is the deity of the Spirit clearly in Scripture?”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “Is it essential?”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “Is the fact that Father, Son, and Spirit are not the same person but are distinct clearly in Scripture?”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “Is it essential?”
Them: “Yes.”
Me: “The doctrine of the Trinity is clearly expressed in Scripture, and it is essential to the Christian faith.”

String theory didn't just fail, it's far worse.

[Dave Coakley @MonkeyAbout]

@DrGladd @Logos Awesome!

[Benjamin L. Gladd @DrGladd]

SURPRISE! We've released a special NSBT Themelios issue to honor D. A. Carson for his contribution to biblical theology. 🤩

Does the cover look familiar?

NSBT authors pay tribute to Carson by summarizing and reflecting on their own volumes.

Please read and share!
