Synopsis

This Festschrift for historian Gerald L. Priest, who served the Lord Jesus and the church for over twenty years at Detroit Baptist Theological Seminary, contains six articles that touch on historical subjects dear to Dr. Priest's heart. The first three articles deal with aspects of the life and ministries of Jonathan Edwards and Andrew Fuller, both remarkable eighteenth-century theologians whose thought has had a profound impact down to the present day, along with eighteenth-century Baptist reflection on the subject of good works. The second set of three essays explore the nature of Fundamentalist historiography and the emergence of twentieth-century Fundamentalism through the lens of the thinking of two prominent liberals, William Newton Clarke and George Burman Foster. Together, all six essays are offered as a tribute to a fine Christian historian, teacher, and believer. ""In a day when all around us the foundations of historic Christianity are under attack, this tribute to the life and ministry of Dr. Gerald Priest is both timely and welcomed. We have much to learn from those who have gone before us and these essays will help the careful reader profit from the faithful labors of Dr. Priest for the cause of Christ."" --Kirk Wellum, Principal, Toronto Baptist Seminary Michael A. G. Haykin is Professor of Church History and Biblical Spirituality at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Allen R. Mickle is Adjunct Instructor of Bible and Theology at Clarks Summit University, Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania.
