Nice! The last one looks especially interesting.
You know, I used to have McQuilkin and Erickson. The latter I got rid of along with many other systematic theologies several years ago, and the former I think must have been stolen from my storage place. Anyway, they’re both excellent — as is Bray, which I still do have. But I’ve never even seen the one by Marshall.
Not a bad list. That Erickson’s Theology is heavy stuff. Have fun with it.
Nick, I actually got Bray’s book a bit earlier as I was able to purchase that on at my local Christian bookstore, I try to by locally as much as I can to support them.
Esteban, the Erickson is nicely bound as well it lays nice and flat when open. I own the condense version of it but I needed to get the complete volume so I did.
TC, yeah pretty good from what I read, and it actually has an endorsement by Wolfhart Pannenberg.
these are good books Robert!
Yeah, they have been really good reading so far. The book by Howard Marshall is excellent.
Robert, the Erickson book is very enjoyable. I can’t put it down. I’m about halfway through it.
The selection of material looks pretty responsible. Especially for only a single class.
Michael, there are few more books that I actually ordering
The core book is Biblical Inspiration, and the others are required as well but only selective reading (whatever chapters they recommend)
