Hi Jamin, I’m not a regular visitor of your website, but every now and then I’m looking through it and find it very interesting. I’ve bought your portable presuppositionalist and started reading it. A friend of mine started some time ago to dig deep into all the presuppositionalism, christian philosophy and neo-calvinism. He’s telling me [...]

Abraham Kuyper and his successor Herman Bavinck are usually considered the “fathers of Neo-Calvinism.” I will spare you the details of what Neo-Calvinism is since more competent folks have already done so.

Inerrancy and The Reformed Faith of Today and Yesterday Many semi-liberal, Reformed thinkers who are anti-conservative-evangelical (i.e. Dordt College profs, Calvin College profs, Thinknet, Roy Clouser and his cronies, etc.) have often tried to separate Old Princeton’s rigorous work on the doctrine of inspiration from Neo-Calvinists’ (Bavinck and Kuyper) doctrine of Scripture. That is, they [...]
