“The task of the theopoetic and the theopoet is to open up spaces of unanticipated dreaming in which the past, the present and the future are reshaped as we reorganize or even recreate our stories in relationship with the other, the world and the Divine .”

Below is an outline for the two major, Christian hermeneutical systems existing after the beginning of the Age of Enlightenment.  Being that this excerpt begins the "Systematic Theology" portion of an essay I am composing, I have included a preamble to set up context for the outlines.  Note that the Dispensational outline is, as best as I can tell, representative of the sort of Dispensationalism subscribed to by Ryrie, and other "Post-Dallas" dispensationalists.  The outline representing Covenant Theology is, like the dispensational one, not exhaustive, but descriptive.  So, covenant theologians and dispensationalists alike, will probably look at these outlines and have something to add ...

In light of some of the content of my past few posts, I would like to present a few quotes from J. N. Darby.  Not the only voice hailing from what we refer to as the "brethren" movement, but likely the most known.  The following quotes are all taken from " The Notion of a Clergyman, dispensationally the sin against the Holy Spirit ".  We must note here that, in large measure, his definition of "clergyman" was made in the historical context of a battle against "Puseyism", or " Tractarianism ", which was, according to the definition given the term by Merriam-Webster, "a system ...

Contrasting Baines with Waldron on Gal. 6 Galatians 6:11 See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand. 12 It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh who would force you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. 13 For even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep the law, [remember Romans 2 here] but they desire to have you circumcised that they may boast in your flesh. 14 But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of ...

The following section deals primarily with, “ Section 1 of: The Lord's Coming , Israel , and the Church. 4th edition, revised and enlarged. Broom, 1881. In this section of Baines’ work, he also shows his misunderstanding of the Amillennial position. Baines writes, “ Everybody is aware of the difference prevailing among the Lord's people as to the interpretation of those passages of Scripture which foretell the future in reserve for the Church and the world. The ordinary interpretation is, that the promises contained in the Psalms and Old Testament prophecies refer to the Church, which, as the spiritual Israel , has taken the ... Read Full Story

Baines’ Citations and Explanations of the book of Hebrews Taken from: The Hope of Israel and Creation. by T. B. Baines. “To some minds it may present a difficulty that animal sacrifices should be again spoken of But an animal sacrifice was never in itself of any value as an offering. It was but a type of the true sacrifice, and such a type may be just as suitable in remembrance of the sacrifice as in anticipation”. It is very interesting that, just today (March 27, 2008), Dr. Sam Waldron, whom I have quoted a time or two in the past regarding this topic, ... Read Full Story
