Biblical Authority After Babel: Retrieving the Solas in the Spirit of Mere Protestant Christianity (Softcover)

Description

Critics claim that by eliminating a sole figure of authority—the Pope—the Protestant Reformation unleashed interpretive anarchy on Christianity. World-renowned theologian Vanhoozer disagrees, asserting in
Biblical Authority After Babel: Retrieving the Solas of Mere Protestant Christianity
that a retrieval of historical Protestantism’s five core principles—sola gratia, sola fide, sola scriptura, solus Christus, and soli Deo gloria—offers the answer to any “hermeneutical havoc.”
In response to the critique that the Protestant Reformation loosed interpretive anarchy upon the world, Vanhoozer offers a compelling, accessible, and constructive assessment of the Reformation, demonstrating how a retrieval of “mere Protestant Christianity” has the potential to reform and unify contemporary Christian belief and practice.
Biblical Authority After Babel
provides pastors, church leaders, and scholars with an integrated, organic understanding of the biblical truth, worked out in and through the triune economy of the gospel, that best represents the spirit of mere Protestant Christianity and the hope of holy nations.
