REMOTE LIVE COURSE meeting via Zoom on Wednesday mornings (9am-11am)
NOTE: This ThM seminar is available to SECOND & THIRD-YEAR MDiv/MA students with the permission of RTS Orlando’s Academic Dean Dr. Mchael Allen (mallen@rts.edu)
This course involves a close study of the writings of John Webster. Students grow in their ability to read his texts directly and to appreciate the systematic framework of his thought more broadly. In viewing his work closely and broadly alike, its relationship to other theologians is examined, beginning with his early work on modern Protestant theology and moving through to his later, extended engagement of early fathers, medieval doctors, and post-Reformation Reformed scholastics. His practice of theology is examined with respect to various doctrines (e.g. God, covenant, church) as well as with respect to its underlying methodological approach to “theological theology” as an exercise in “biblical reasoning.”
