Well... It's been about a year and I've picked up a new project. I'm currently going to be working on a paper dealing with Biblical Theology. I've decided to map my progress on the blog as I go about pick and narrowing my topic. For anyone who reads this blog, I would appreciate feedback, criticism, or questions. I've never mapped my thinking like this before, but I hope that it will in some way be valuable to myself as well as others.
I am currently researching and getting as many online articles as possible. I don't have access to many reasons outside of the internet (I live in Indonesia!) so if you know of other articles or databases I would love to get them. I'm currently researching: Monergism, Kerux.org, and BeginningWithMoses.org. I've seen a lot of Kline and Gaffin stuff appear and I am interested in knowing their distinctives and similarities. I've gotten some Goldsworthy, I hear he's the stuff in and around Sydney when it comes to BT.
I've also recently read: O. Palmer Robertson "Christ of the Covenants," Herman Witsius "Economy of the Covenants," "The New Dictionary of Biblical Theology," Geerhardus Vos, "Biblical Theology of the Old and New Testament," John Owen, "Biblical Theology" (published by SDG), and Graeme Goldsworthy, "According to Plan." Please feel free to post thoughts on any and all of these authors.
As a last bit of interest, I've been doing some mulling around on the Center of Biblical Theology Study of St. Peter (or something like that). On this site, Dr. Scott Hahn has argued that Pope Benedict XVI takes a strong stance of BT within the Catholic tradition. Some introductory articles show that he has at least taken a strong stance against the critics, which leads to ignorance (perhaps a flavor even Vos wouldn't have minded 100%, but I'd rather read Vos). We'll see if this Catholic strain of BT develops any further and if it is of interest.
