Biblical Theology, Systematic Theology & Perspectival Theology

by Drew Goodmanson|19 April 200619 April 2006|Church, Teaching, Triperspectivalism

I found this post by the JollyBlogger to be an extremely interesting discussion around the flaws of systematics and singular perspectives rather than reading the whole of the Bible with perspectival lenses: [read my previous post on triperspectivalism] Frame understands...

To contrast what type of a church we should plant, here is the contrast of what not to plant....hmmm...more tri-perspectivalism. Most churches error toward one of the perspectives; Normative, Situation or Existential. Normative relates to authority and concern with 'right...

Not How or Why but WHAT type of church should you plant
