ON BEING REFORMED Debates over a Theological Identity
Matthew C. Bingham, Chris Caughey, R. Scott Clark, Crawford Gribben and D. G. Hart
Christianities in the Trans-Atlantic World Series Editors Crawford Gribben Department of History Queen’s University Belfast Belfast, UK Scott Spurlock Department of Theology and Religious Studies University of Glasgow Glasgow, UK “How does one identify a tradition, religious or political, and map its continuity from the past into the present? The authors show that issues of principle quickly arise between people who bind themselves to different ideas of sameness and difference. Learned and lively, their debate is instructive even if the outcome is inconclusive.” —Paul Helm, Professor of the History and Philosophy of Religion Emeritus, King’s College London, UK “On Being Reformed marshals the exceptional historical and ecclesiastical expertise of its various contributors to address the much debated identity of the Reformed tradition. Informed in their use of sources, forthright in their arguments, and irenic in tone, these essays will serve readers well by helping them discern where the fault lines between Baptist and Reformed churches truly lie and also where the bonds of unity in faith and practice may be found. Both are necessary services for those of us who inhabit a living Reformed tradition and wish to see it flourish in days ahead.” —Scott R. Swain, James Woodrow Hassell Professor of Systematic Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary, USA
