On Friday of last week, we began the third hike into Grudem’s magnum opus, Systematic Theology. Section three deals with the doctrine of man. I’m continually caught off guard by how Dr. Grudem can make weighty truths digestible to average-joe-thinkers like me. Don’t let the title or thickness of the book fool you. It reads very devotionally, and the style of writing is quite – again, borderline surprisingly – accessible.
Well, here we have a good friend of Sovereign Grace, a pastor, author, and scholar in his own right, Thabiti Anyabwile, relaying some of the salient points from Grudem’s chapter in a recent book edited by Leland Ryken and Todd Wilson. The book is titled, Preach the Word: Essays on Expository Preaching: In Honor of R. Kent Hughes. (I love putting colons in my own titles too, but these guys are out of my league.) I’d recommend saving this as a favorite and turning back to it regularly to keep these important principles of biblical interpretation close on hand.
