Why We Retrieve Thomas Aquinas: Barrett, Swain, Sanders, Fesko

2 weeks ago | credomag.com | Matthew Barrett |Scott Swain |Michael Horton

You’ve most likely been told that Thomas Aquinas is off limits, a theologian who will corrupt Protestants and turn them into Roman Catholics. And yet, Protestant history tells a different story: many of our Protestant forefathers did not merely retrieve Aquinas but thought of him as part of the same tradition they belonged to in the end.
Contemplating the Father with Gregory of Nazianzus

I’ve decided I need a breather from writing the chapters in my Systematic Theology on creation and anthropology. They are thrilling to write as the contrast between a classical approach to creation and a modern one makes for quite a story. Nevertheless, I need to let them marinate for a bit. I write in such a way that I let chapters sit for some time so that I can come back and evaluate them with fresh eyes.
New Website! TheNiceneCreed.org

2 months ago | credomag.com | Spencer McCorkel |Matthew Barrett

For over a millennium and a half the church across the globe has gathered together to confess the Trinity of the Nicene Creed. Across the Great Tradition this creed has proved to be a center around which the church unites as well as a guardrail that keeps the church from drifting into false doctrine.

Who is right, Athanasius or Mastricht?

It can be tempting to plow right over deep, complicated passages in a classical text, but I find they often present us with an opportunity to contemplate a great mystery. I am writing the chapter on the image of God in my Systematic Theology, and I keep returning to a paragraph in Athanasius’s On the Incarnation. Each time I read it I find myself thinking about it from another angle.

One of the most essential doctrines for a Christian understanding of the Trinity is eternal generation. When the equality of the Son with the Father was thrown into question in the fourth century, the church fathers turned to the doctrine of eternal generation not only to distinguish the Son from the Father but to ensure that the Son is understood to be equal with the Father.
