I found that Kim had some solid criticisms of Dunn's theses, especially in Dunn's emphasis on "universality" versus "particularity" over against the effects of the cross. Further, Watson doesn't consider himself new perspective. His book moved "beyond" the new perspective.<BR/><BR/>That being said, I have not read <I>Justification and Variegated Nomism</I> edited by Carson, O'Brien, and Seifrid, a major critique of the new perspective (mostly because it costs $150).<BR/><BR/>I will lay it out and I'd be interested in your comments!Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16224512898969884864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3658097024755959565.post-24434142393920490342009-01-13T15:04:00.000-08:002009-01-13T15:04:00.000-08:00Well what do you expect when most of your books yo...Well what do you expect when most of your books you read support the new perspective? If you read books against it would it have convinced you?

The biggest challenge for me is presenting Martin Luther's view without misrepresenting him. Historical theology is not my strength, so I want to be careful to be fair to Luther. The only one of his books I've read is <I>The Bondage of the Will</I>, so I am having to a bit of background reading to be able to quote him fairly.<BR/><BR/>I'll have some thoughts in due time.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16224512898969884864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3658097024755959565.post-63956108960045718482009-01-01T21:52:00.000-08:002009-01-01T21:52:00.000-08:00Thanks for sharing this.
