Theology That Bites Back
This book is something of a mixed bag, but I really profited from reading it, and so I can cheerfully recommend it to you. What I brought away from the book was that the sins were largely the sins of Hilaire Belloc and Cecil Chesterton, Gilbert’s younger brother. The author does prove that both of …
Many moons ago, I wrote an article for the magazine Antithesis, in which I argued that the Solemn League and Covenant had been broken and set aside by a disobedient people, but the covenant had not thereby evaporated.

One of the things that separates Jews and Christians is that the Christians have seen the various messianic streams of the Old Testament as all coming together as fulfilled in Christ. In the understanding ...
