Reformed Churchmen: Celebrity Pastor: Indecent Exposure (T4G 2012), Including Mahaney

Reformed Churchmen

We are Confessional Calvinists and a Prayer Book Church-people. In 2012, we remembered the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer; also, we remembered the 450th anniversary of John Jewel's sober, scholarly, and Reformed "An Apology of the Church of England." In 2013, we remembered the publication of the "Heidelberg Catechism" and the influence of Reformed theologians in England, including Heinrich Bullinger's Decades. For 2014: Tyndale's NT translation. For 2015, John Roger, Rowland Taylor and Bishop John Hooper's martyrdom, burned at the stakes. Books of the month.

This is a 1-minute blurb from T4G. Originally, Dr. Carl Trueman, we've been told, was to host this discussion group. It then was transformed into a panel with "three celebs." EVERY T4G speaker is rejected by RA in view of the far superior classics in the history of the church. As if an Al Mohler "expatiation" (called a sermon)--usually about 40 minutes--is better than 40 minutes of Bible reading. Cranmer used to think so, that is, the supremacy of the Bible read abundantly in the congregation...again, the power of wide reading of the Word of God.

Speaker: Al Mohler, C.J. Mahaney, Ligon Duncan, Mark Dever Year: 2012
