This work explores what the formative writers of the fourth century said about divine fatherhood in order to address a key subject in Trinitarian debate in modern theology.D. Blair Smith examines the Father within classical Trinitarian thought. The question of the fatherhood of God occupied several 20th – 21st century theologians who sought to retrieve fourth-century Trinitarian developments in order to inform their systematic concerns. Smith explores the foundational period and engages with a number of the formative ‘pro-Nicene’ voices of Athanasius of Alexandria, Hilary of Poitiers, Gregory of Nazianzus, and Basil of Caesarea. This book then examines the crucial theological space given to eternal generation of the Son, divine simplicity, the coinherence of the persons, inseparability of operations, and even the Holy Spirit in order to understand the distinctiveness of the Father within the Trinity.Smith argues Basil represents the most integrative pro-Nicene account of divine fatherhood, providing sharpness to the mature pro-Nicene Trinitarian categories emerging within this era and critically applies insights gleaned from the pro-Nicene development to questions raised by modern readings of the ‘first’ person of the Trinity as well as identify trailhead for further inquiry on the fatherhood of God within contemporary Trinitarian thought.

Scholars from Reformed Theological Seminary Present a Comprehensive Guide to the Westminster Confession for Modern ReadersWhat is Reformed theology? In 1646, a group of theologians composed what is arguably the most comprehensive statement of faith, the Westminster Confession. Their efforts to preserve Protestant theology against opposing beliefs endured. Today, amid growing interest in Reformed Christianity, the Westminster Confession remains an indispensable guide for living out doctrine, worship, and church governance sola Scriptura, “by Scripture alone.”This essential collection of essays presents an accessible guide to the Westminster Confession of Faith for 21st-century readers. Each chapter is devoted to a section of the historic document, carefully studying its context, its significance to the faith, and its application, as well as any controversies. Clear, thorough explanations of principles, including the Trinity, creation, providence, baptism, last judgment, and more, make this the definitive guide on Reformed Christian doctrine. The essays are written by faculty from Reformed Theological Seminary in their areas of expertise, ensuring a trustworthy and high-quality text for church leaders, teachers and students of theology, and laypeople.
