Vossians and Neo-Calvinists Together?

By D. G. Hart | Published: April 20, 2012

I have puzzled often about the lack of support in Vossian circles for two-kingdom theology. Many Vossians I know — and I consider myself to be one — find the spirituality of the church agreeable but balk at 2k. Why 2k is distinguished from the spirituality of the church is anyone’s guess, or why Geerhardus… Read More→

That Tears It, I’m Joining the Gospel Coalition

By D. G. Hart | Published: January 25, 2011

There I may be appreciated finally (since it is all about me, after all). First it was Bryan Chapell video”>saying something very 2kish about the United States as a Christian nation. His answer was essentially, no. And that answer goes well with the 2k idea that the only Christian nation that ever existed was the… Read More→

The 2k/Anti-2k Fault Line

By D. G. Hart | Published: November 23, 2010

In the current issue of the Westminster Theological Journal, William Evans from Esrkine College, has an article offering a taxonomy of the current debates over the doctrine of union. In the repristinationist wing he puts Westminster California. He even specifies that the revisionism of Shepherd and Federal Vision provoked the repristinationist effort. The other group… Read More→

Right Chronology, Wrong Westminster Professor

By D. G. Hart | Published: January 18, 2010

The controversial Kerux review of The Law Is Not of Faith is now available on line. I cannot get past the first sentence: “For the past thirty years, a shift in Reformed covenant theology has been percolating under the hot Southern California sun in Escondido.” This is an amazing opening because for thirty years the… Read More→

Ken Myers on the Bible

By D. G. Hart | Published: January 7, 2010

Many years ago – too many for those of his vintage – Ken Myers, the talking voice behind Mars Hill Audio, wrote a piece that should be more widely known and read, “Christianity, Culture, and Common Grace.” It is available in pdf at the Mars Hill website.
