From confession to canon
“If dissent against any proposition in the confession [of a church] destroys the dissenter’s good standing in the church, then the confession becomes irreformable, unamendable, and, for all practical purposes, canonical.”
John Frame, The Doctrine of the Knowledge of God, pg 226

Things I want to do in 2012 and beyond….
Resolutions are too shady. Knowing that nobody is perfect, here is what I would like to do in 2012, not resolve to:
- Manage my time better (should help with the reading below)
- Run 10 miles in an hour and a half by this time next year.
- Get back down to 220 (currently 250, should be easy with above)
- Read all 4 volumes of John Frame’s Theology of Lordship books
- Read Calvin’s Institutes
- Read GK Beale’s A New Testament Theology
The above totals 5,961 pages! According to this, if I read 30 minutes a day at 250 words per minute, I should be able to read about 7,820 pages in a year. Which will leave plenty of room for other reading as well.
Here is to the new year!
