Justin Genus’s Reviews > The Cross and Salvation: The Doctrine of Salvation > Status Update

Glorification chapter is solod and uneventful. Why is there no conclusing synthesis? Why is there no historical survey in glorification?

Best application section in the whole book. So comforting.

Next section on glorification has no survey of views? Michael Vlach would be displeased

Section on peverance continues to impress.

Takes the "warning sign" view, with regenerate Jews as the audience on Heb 6, 10. Doesnt deal with the full context in Heb 6, but makes a good case nonetheless. Either way, Berhouker is righ on the purpose of warnings (Faith and Perseverance, 119-120)

Barth manages to sneak into the Reformed category this time.

Nice summary of the views on perseverance. Might have been good to address the "no-lordship" crew

The practical section on sanctification has some good stuff

Section on the law is great on use of the law, bad on Jesus's "reinterpretation"(!?) of the law

Interesting take on be "teleoi" commands and loving with "all" your heart

Really good on supposed "second blessings" in Acts. Some good stuff on progressive sanctification, less so on positional.

Suggeting that moral holiness is a minor theme based on word study in the OT is not great. . . Unless you're willing to go far enough to suggest we may be misunderstanding the word in the NT (Gotta read Peterson at some point)
