Reformed ThinkingFinal Reflections on the Task of TheologyDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - Concluding ThoughtsThe concluding thoughts of Millard Erickson emphasize that abstract ideas are the primary driving force of history. Just as political and scientific concepts have reshaped the modern world, Christian theological doctrines—specifically the Incarnation—have acted as the catalyst for establishing major humanitarian institutions like schools and hospitals. Consequently, right belief is imperative, as a person's specific doctrinal understanding dictates the nature and spirit of their daily lifestyle.However, the text warns that intellectual accuracy is insufficient on its own. Poss...

Erickson - Final StatesThe final states of humanity, determined by decisions made in this present life, lead either to eternal blessedness in heaven or eternal punishment in hell.Heaven's fundamental nature is the presence of God, a condition from which all blessings flow. Heaven is primarily understood as a spiritual state of completion, rather than a particular physical location, marked by perfect knowledge, glory, and the removal of all evils, including pain, mourning, and sin. The distinguishing mark of heaven is its condition...

Erickson -Millennial and Tribulational ViewsChristian eschatology involves three main millennial views concerning the earthly reign of Christ: Premillennialism, Postmillennialism, and Amillennialism.Premillennialism holds that the Second Coming of Christ will precede and inaugurate a future, literal, thousand-year earthly reign. This view insists on a literal and consistent interpretation of Revelation 20, arguing that the two resurrections mentioned must both be physical events separated by the millennium. Premillennialists agree that the millennium will be preceded by the Great Tribulation, a time when world conditions will...

Erickson - Introduction to EschatologyEschatology, traditionally concerned with the "last things" and the future consummation of history, has been radically redefined by modern theology. Six primary approaches emerged in reaction to the conventional view of the Kingdom of God as a dramatic, future earthly reign.The Liberal Approach, or Modernized Eschatology, exemplified by figures like Adolf von Harnack (who emphasized God’s fatherhood) and Albrecht Ritschl, rejects supernatural future events, viewing the Second Coming as a prescientific "husk."

Christian groups agree on six foundational points, including the necessity of repetition of the rite until Christ’s second coming, its function as a proclamation of His atoning death, and its role in conferring spiritual benefit upon the believer. Participation is uniformly restricted to genuine followers of Christ who have engaged in rigorous self-examination to e...

While worship focuses on God, edification concentrates on the spiritual growth of believers, a process Paul frequently emphasized for the body of Christ. It involves mutual upbuilding by all members, not just ministers, and serves as a criterion for all church activities.The church facilitates edification through several key means:Fellowship (koinōnia): This involves sharing experiences, which lessens hurt and increases joy.

2025-08-125h 54Reformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - The Nature of the ChurchThe church, though frequently misunderstood, is fundamentally a divinely established institution, with its true nature best understood through a biblical-philological method that focuses on its scriptural essence rather than merely its observable activities.Paul's writings present a Trinitarian understanding of the church through three key images. As the People of God, it emphasizes God’s sovereign choice of both Jews and Gentiles under the new covenant, requiring inward spiritual transformation. As the Body of Christ, the church is the locus of Christ's ongoing activity in the world, highlighting believers' profound union with Him as their head and th...
2025-08-0641 minReformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - The Means and Extent of SalvationThe evangelical view of salvation stands as a distinct theological perspective, contrasting sharply with sacramentalism and liberation theology. At its core, it emphasizes the indispensable role of the Word of God and the acceptance of salvation through faith.The Word of God, whether preached or read, is understood as God’s primary means of presenting salvation in Christ. It is described with powerful images—a hammer, a mirror, a seed—illustrating its capacity to break hard hearts, reveal truth, and initiate new life. Crucially, it's not merely the Bible itself, but the Word as applied by the Holy S...
2025-08-0529 minReformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - What is Theology?Systematic theology is a discipline of study within a Christian context that aims to provide a coherent and comprehensive understanding of the Christian faith. It seeks to articulate the doctrines of Christianity, primarily based on the Scriptures, and present them in a way that is relevant to contemporary culture and life. Fundamentally, it is the study or science of God, encompassing His works, His creation (especially human beings and their condition), and His redemptive work in relation to humankind.This comprehensive task is defined by five key aspects:It is biblical, meaning it takes the canonical...
2025-08-0454 minReformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - The Completion of SalvationThe completion of Christian salvation is understood through two key doctrines: perseverance and glorification. Perseverance addresses whether a genuinely saved believer will remain in faith throughout their life, emphasizing God's enabling power and the believer's active demonstration of Christ-likeness. This doctrine is crucial for a believer's security and motivation.The Calvinist view on perseverance asserts that true believers cannot totally or finally fall away from grace and are eternally secure, supported by biblical promises of indestructible salvation, God's persistent love, and Christ's direct assurances that His sheep will never perish. Conversely, the Arminian view contends that falling...

Erickson - The Continuation of SalvationSanctification is God's continuing work in believers, actively making them actually holy and conforming them to the image of Christ. This transformative process differs from justification: justification is an instantaneous legal declaration of righteousness, while sanctification is a progressive, subjective transformation of character that continues throughout life. While complete sinlessness is an ideal to strive for, it is generally considered unlikely for believers to attain it fully in this earthly life, emphasizing an ongoing reliance on grace rather than complacency.The Holy Spirit plays a central and indispensable role in sanctification. It is His special, volitional work...
2025-08-0233 minReformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - The Beginning of Salvation: Objective AspectsChristian theology identifies three essential objective aspects of salvation: Union with Christ, Justification, and Adoption. These concepts define a believer's status and standing before God.Union with Christ is a foundational and inclusive concept for all of salvation, signifying an intimate, mutual relationship between Christ and the believer, akin to marriage. It is a profound mystery and is characterized as judicial, spiritual, and vital. Judicially, God sees believers in union with Christ and declares them righteous. Spiritually, it is effected by the Holy Spirit and involves a union of spirits, producing new vitality. Vitally, Christ's life flows...
2025-08-0148 minReformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - The Beginning of Salvation: Subjective AspectsThe beginning of Christian salvation involves three interconnected steps: effectual calling, conversion, and regeneration. These are subjective aspects, focusing on an individual's inward spiritual transformation.Effectual calling is God's initial, special, and effective work with the elect. Because human nature is spiritually dead and unable to believe on its own, God intervenes through the Holy Spirit's illumination and conviction, enabling and ensuring a positive response of repentance and faith. This divine initiative makes conversion both possible and certain.Conversion is the human response to this effectual calling, marking the first step of the Christian life...
2025-08-0135 minReformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - The Antecedent to Salvation: PredestinationThe doctrine of predestination refers to God’s choice of individuals for eternal life or eternal death, a concept distinct from broader divine "foreordination" of all events. This complex doctrine gained prominence with Augustine, who emphasized human inability due to Adam's sin and God's unconditional, irresistible grace. Pelagius countered, asserting human free will and that God's predestination is based on His foreknowledge of human merit.The Reformation saw a resurgence of Augustinian thought with Martin Luther and John Calvin. Calvinism is summarized by TULIP: Total Depravity (humans utterly unable to respond to grace), Unconditional Election (God's choice fo...

Erickson - Conceptions of SalvationSecular theology offers a distinct view of salvation, fundamentally rejecting the traditional understanding that salvation involves removal from the world and supernatural grace from God. It emerged in the twentieth century as cultural views on God's role shifted due to scientific explanations and humanity's growing ability to solve its own problems, leading to a pragmatic, secular lifestyle where God has no practical place.Theologians like Dietrich Bonhoeffer interpreted this shift as humanity's "coming of age," suggesting it's God's way of educating humans to be independent of Him. Bonhoeffer believed that God is present within "irreligion," and that...

This has led to diverse interpretations regarding prophecy, science, other world religions, and other spiritual entities.One area is the continuation of prophecy today. Advocates distinguish modern prophecy from Old Testament prophecy, stating it is not equal in authority to Scripture and is imperfect, requiring testing. Wayne Grudem describes it as God laying something on one's heart, while Jack Deere emphasizes dreams, visions, and direct experience. Critics point to a lack of clear biblical evidence for...

He also endowed individuals with necessary skills for tasks like building the tabernacle and empowered administration and leadership for figures like Joseph, Moses's elders, and judges such as Othniel and Gideon.

Erickson - The Person of the Holy SpiritThe historical doctrine of the Holy Spirit has developed at varying rates, often provoked by controversy, leading to fuller elaborations over time. In the earliest church (1st-2nd centuries), little was explicitly stated, with an early emphasis on the Spirit as the guiding force producing the Bible. There was a growing recognition of the Spirit's divinity, though some viewed him as merely grace or an attribute.The fourth and fifth centuries saw a major shift, largely as a by-product of Christological debates. Athanasius vigorously insisted on the Spirit's full divinity and consubstantiality with the Father and Son...
2025-07-2735 minReformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - The Extent of the AtonementThe resolution of atonement theories centers on two main questions: "For whom did Christ die?" and "For what did Christ atone?"Regarding the extent of Christ's death, two primary views contend. Particular Atonement, often embraced by Calvinists, argues that Christ died exclusively for the elect, thereby guaranteeing their salvation. They emphasize scriptures speaking of Christ dying "for his people" or "his sheep," and infer from his limited intercessory prayer in John 17:9 that his atoning sacrifice was similarly confined. Conversely, Universal Atonement maintains that Christ died for all humanity, making salvation possible for anyone who accepts it. Proponents...
2025-07-2638 minReformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Christian Theology by Millard J. Erickson - The Central Theme of the AtonementAtonement is a fundamental Christian doctrine explaining how humanity's sin is reconciled with God through Jesus Christ's death. It centers on four core elements: sacrifice, propitiation, substitution, and reconciliation. The penal substitution theory provides the most comprehensive understanding of this work.The need for atonement stems from God's perfect and complete holiness, which finds sin utterly repulsive, and humanity's total depravity, making self-salvation impossible. God's moral law reflects His very nature, and disobeying it is an attack on God Himself, leading to inevitable punishment and death.Jesus Christ, being both God and human, possessed infinite...

Erickson - Thories of the AtonementThe Governmental Theory of atonement, primarily developed by Hugo Grotius, a lawyer by training, posits a unique understanding of how God deals with sin. This theory views God as a holy and righteous ruler who has established moral laws. Sin is understood as a serious violation of these laws, inherently deserving punishment.However, God's dominant attribute of love allows Him to forgive sin. The central challenge addressed by this theory is how God can forgive without undermining the authority of His moral government or encouraging antinomianism (a disregard for moral law).According to Grotius, Christ's...

It marked his departure from earthly conditions and his glorious reassumption of his rightful place with God the Father. This event was not merely a physical upward movement; it involved a transformative change of state to a different dimension of reality, completing the metamorphosis of his body that began with his resurrection.One key significance is that Jesus left behind the limitations and suffering associated with earthly life, including physical and psychological pain, opposition, hostility, unbelief, and unfaithfulness.

Erickson - The Virgin BirthThe "virgin birth" in Christian theology, more accurately termed "virginal conception," refers to Jesus's conception in Mary's womb without sexual intercourse, through the supernatural influence of the Holy Spirit, with Mary remaining a virgin until his birth. It does not imply an abnormal physical birth process.This doctrine is highly debated, second only to the resurrection. It is significant because it serves as a crucial test of belief in the supernatural and God's direct intervention in the world. For fundamentalists in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it was a guarantee of Christ's qualitative uniqueness and...

Erickson - The Unity of the Person of ChristThe doctrine of the unity of Jesus Christ's divine and human natures in one person is a large and crucial theological issue with extensive implications for Christian theology. It's considered one of the most difficult problems in Christian thought. Its importance lies in the efficacy of redemption; the successful bridging of the gap between God and humanity depended upon Jesus being a unified God-man. For his atoning sacrifice to have infinite value, it must be the work of the divine Christ, and to avail for humankind, the work of the human Jesus; only a unified person can accomplish this...

Erickson - The Humanity of ChristUnderstanding Christ's humanity is considered vitally important for Christian salvation and faith, historically posing a significant challenge to orthodox belief when denied or diminished.The primary reason is that salvation fundamentally depends on it. The sources explain that humanity is separated from God by an ontological and moral gap due to sin. This gap is bridged through the incarnation, where deity and humanity are united in one person. If Jesus was not truly human, genuinely "one of us," then humanity was not united with deity in him, and salvation cannot occur. His atoning sacrifice is effective for...

This is considered foundational, differentiating it from views that portray him as merely an extraordinary human.The sources provide extensive biblical support for this doctrine. Although Jesus didn't always make overt claims like "I am God," he made statements and claimed prerogatives appropriate only for God, such as the authority to forgive sins and judge the world. His use of titles like "Son of Man" and "Son of...

This asks whether a proper understanding of Christ must stem from historical investigation and reason, or if it is primarily based on faith in the church's proclamation, the kerygma.

不時會聽到有信徒分享，
教會的人常鼓勵他快些受洗，
說「受洗才能投入教會、做到某些服侍⋯⋯」。
但那信徒因為感到別人在催逼他，
反而更抗拒去受洗。
既然我都信了，我都得救了，
那為何我還需要受洗呢？
加入教會，更不是可有可無的條件嗎？
這集我們會跟大家討論一下洗禮對信仰的意義，
以及洗禮和加入教會的關係。
__________

其實不同洗禮班的課本，都會講到洗禮的意義。若想更深入的了解洗禮，可參考不同的系統神學書，每本系統神學書都必定會有討論洗禮的章節。我們這集其中兩個參考資料是林鴻信所著的《系統神學》和艾利克森（Millard J. Erickson）所著的《基督教神學》，如果有興趣，都可以看看書中有關聖禮和洗禮的章節。你教會的圖書櫃或你的牧者，或許應該有不同的系統神學書，鼓勵向他們借閱。

上集講完新天新地，今集接著講吓地獄。
傳統的觀念認為地獄是永火、永刑。
有些人會感到神會否太殘忍？
不信祂便要受永刑，那好像是過重和不公平的懲罰啊！？
那我們應該如何理解地獄相關的觀念呢？

Thinking Christianly#4: Should We Return To “In-Person” Church?As COVID restrictions are being lifted in the U.S., we are once again able to attend church in person. However, after twelve to eighteen months participating in church services online, many believers are wondering if they should return, or just continue attending online services. JP and Stan discuss some of the reasons many are asking this question, which leads them to discuss what the church is and why it exists. Principles are identified and conclusions drawn concerning if and how believers should understand church involvement.

Trinitiespodcast 322 – Review of Erickson’s Making Sense of the Trinity
In this episode, my review of Dr. Millard Erickson’s Making Sense of the Trinity. How many questions about “the Trinity” does this short and often-recommended book clearly answer? The author is very learned, and is not afraid to admit some difficult points for trinitarians, for example:
[The doctrine of the Trinity] does not appear to be taught in Scripture, which is the Christian’s supreme authority in faith and practice. And it presents an obstacle to faith for those who otherwise might be inclined to accept the Christian faith.
Making Sense of the Trinity, p. 13
