		<description><![CDATA[One of the conservative Anglican blogs (which seems oddly to be moving more and more in a Calvinist direction) posted a link to a video sermon today in which the decidedly Reformed (and not any sense Anglican) theologian John Piper &#8220;explains the relationship between election and free will.&#8221;  Wow.  I am glad that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Easter season begins with the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus from the grave, and it ends with Trinity Sunday. The resurrection is concrete and specific, something that even children can relate to and understand. Easter eggs and baby chicks speak of new life. We celebrate Easter with the singing of exuberant hymns—“Up from [...]]]></description>

This is the first part of what I hope will be a series of responses.
1) Dr. Liccone begins with a misleading summary of the issue of disagreement.  He suggests that when it comes to the question of the Development [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dr. Michael Liccione has responded to my post on the distinction between formal and informal sufficiency of Scripture, and specifically objects to my reading that Thomas Aquinas subscribes to a &#8220;formal sufficiency&#8221; of Scripture.  By a formal sufficiency I had meant that Scripture has an inherent intelligibility that does not derive from some source [...]]]></description>

Perhaps what I write below shows something of what I mean when I say that Scripture is &#8220;formally sufficient&#8221; and has an &#8220;inherent intelligibility.&#8221; Other helpful examples can [...]]]></description>
