Detroit Baptist Seminary Journal, Volume 14
Overview
Top Highlights
“Two of Mayhue’s points are very significant. The first is that information gained by the human senses cannot be equated with general revelation, which is a disclosure of humanly unknowable information (pp. 119, 122, 129). Ross’s error is that he first makes that very equation (general knowledge of science = revelation); then he effectively equates that with the value and authority of Scripture. Mayhue’s second point is that man’s mind has been so debilitated by sin that empiricism is fundamentally flawed. Special revelation is required to ensure that one’s interpretation of general revelation is correct (p. 119), and divine illumination is required to ensure a correct interpretation of special revelation (p. 124).” (Volume 14, Page 111)
“Paul makes this point clearly in 1 Corinthians 14 when he notes that the edifying value of tongues is lost unless the tongues either attend or contain prophecy for the church.” (Volume 14, Page 12)
“The term cessationism in this article refers to the idea that all the miraculous gifts practiced by the early church have been suspended for the duration of the present age.” (Volume 14, Page 6)
“How, indeed, can a believer be edified and God glorified by the sustained iteration of words whose meaning is lost to the speaker?” (Volume 14, Page 21)
“Paul’s concern is the mutual edification of the body, which is not furthered by untranslated tongues” (Volume 14, Page 20)
