Faith, Obedience, and Justification

Description

This is Dr. Waldron’s Ph.D. dissertation from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Its subtitle is Current Evangelical Departures from Sola Fide. After an abstract and introduction Waldron covers such issues as:

• Sola Fide in Luther
• Sola Fide in Calvin
• Sola Fide in the Reformation Confessions

Against that historical-theological background, Waldron then deals with the revisionism of Daniel Fuller, Norman Shepherd, and Don Garlington.

This is a subject about which evangelical pastors and teachers need to be well-informed, and Waldron’s study and conclusions are a model of theological argument and pastoral discernment.

J. Ligon Duncan, Ph.D.

For those still studying the issues of “the obedience of faith” and its meaning in Reformation theology vs. modern “covenant nomism,” this is a must read.
