Sometimes called “the spoiler of liberalism” B.B. Warfield was one of the greatest theologians America has ever produced. The foundation of his theology, of course, was rooted in the thought of the Reformation, and especially the transformative theology of John Calvin. His work both articulated the ideas of traditional Reformed theology and challenged the emerging heresies of his day.In this volume of re:SOURCE DIGITAL’s bestselling “Journal Writing” series, B.B. Warfield thoroughly refutes the traditional critiques of Enlightenment rationalism as articulated by Albert Ritschl and allies. Caricaturing traditional Protestantism as "miserable sinner Christianity" because of emphasis on human sin, Warfield reverses teh argument and shows how Christianity point in a different direction.
