商品簡介
Price (scriptural studies, Johnnie Colemon Theological Seminary) claims that he has not updated or revised this treatise since it first saw light in 1981 as The Crisis of Biblical Authority: The Setting and Range of the Current Evangelical Controversy, his doctoral dissertation at Drew University. Some, however, might suggest that altered title demonstrates a whimsy he has acquired over the intervening quarter century, or perhaps some banking of the controversy that raged then. He explains that many evangelicals have now moved on to other issues, leaving the question of biblical authority still unresolved. He considers the neo-evangelical ferments, the inerrancy of some assertions, an infallible central message, authority as authorization in a pluriform canon, whether evangelicals demythologize, and the canon outside the canon. Nearly a third of the volume is devoted to appendices on conservative and contemporary Clark H. Pinnock, paradigm shifting and the apologetics debates, and the centrality and scope of conversion.
