Description
Throughout his long career, Cornelius Van Til—a professor at
Westminster Theological Seminary and a renowned apologist—raised
and discussed issues such as the authority of the Scriptures, the effects of
the fall, and the existence of “common ground” between believers and
unbelievers. Such issues are as significant in our day as they were in his.
First published in 1971 and now back in print, Jerusalem and Athens goes
beyond the scope of a typical festschrift. As a point of reference for what
follows, it opens with Van Til’s clear and simple introduction to his own
thought, in which he defends the Christian’s commitment to the “selfattesting
Christ of Scripture”: “I have never met Christ in the flesh. No
matter, he has written me a letter.” This is followed by twenty-five critical
essays on theology, theological method, philosophy, and apologetics
written by contributors such as J. I. Packer, G. C. Berkouwer, Richard
Gaffin, Herman Ridderbos, and Rousas Rushdoony. Van Til replies to a
number of these essays, sharpening the impact of this unique and useful
book.
