T. F. Torrance joins the chorus of pinnacle Reformed theologians who decry all conditional gospels as a false gospel. In evangelicalism today, the gospel is frequently preached in a conditional format, such that salvation will be received if and only if a personal decision is made to accept Jesus as savior. Reformed […]
 
What is God like? The answer is Jesus! In The Mediation of Christ, T. F. Torrance says Yes! God is like Jesus. Perhaps some people may moan at this answer but there is a good Barthian reason why "Jesus" is the answer. It is the same reason that the answer to […]
 
I previously reviewed two of Stephen D. Morrison's books—Karl Barth In Plain English (2017) and Jürgen Moltmann In Plain English (2018)—so I was excited to review T. F. Torrance In Plain English (2017) too. I've enjoyed T. F. Torrance In Plain English the most of Morrison's "In Plain English" series. Perhaps it is because I've read most […]
 
Top 10 of 2018 (January 9, 2019)
My top ten posts of the year are never viral, but they are helpful to reflect back on the year to see what was helpful to the PostBarthian readers around the world, and this year is no different! What I appreciate this top ten is the diversity of theologians from […]
 
It may surprise many Evangelicals today to learn that Martin Luther, John Calvin and the other reformers affirmed similar (or even the same) Marian Dogmas as the Catholic Church.

In Hope for the Church: Moltmann in Dialogue with Practical Theology, Moltmann contributes two remarkable essays within […]
 
I own shelves of Jürgen Moltmann's books and read everything published with Moltmann's name on it, whether it was written by Moltmann or written about Moltmann. Unfortunately, the amount of Moltmann books is endless. If you or someone you love is a moltmanniac like me then there is a short […]
 
Penal Substitutionary Atonement (PSA) is one of many atonement theories, and is the most commonly held theory among evangelicals today. Sadly, Penal Substitutionary Atonement is wrongly assumed to be the only biblical view of atonement, and in the most egregious cases, it is tragically identified with the gospel, and anachronistically […]

Stephen D. Morrison's new book Jürgen Moltmann in Plain English (2018) is an introduction to Moltmann for today's world by an amateur author who writes like a scholar. Morrison's book surprised me because I expected it to be an epitome of Moltmann's life and works, similar to Jürgen Moltmann: Collected […]
