Get PDFThis study investigates trust in AI-generated language fluency. Participants engaged with both human and AI-generated content, varying in fluency. Findings were to favor trust in fluent human and AI interactions over disfluent ones. Understanding fluency\u27s impact can inform AI design and encourage critical thinking when dealing with AI-generated content. By using qualitative analysis of think-aloud reports, we examined strategies that people use to assess texts labeled as human-generated and AI-generated content
Odd Fellows: The Intersection of Arminianism and Calvinism in the writings of Desmond Ford and F.F. Bruce
Get PDFThe Topic
In the 1970s, the Seventh-day Adventist church’s theological struggles over righteousness by faith and perfectionism revealed that Adventists were confused about their Protestant identity and what it meant to have the assurance of salvation. That struggle is exemplified in Desmond Ford’s writings. His doctoral studies under evangelical scholar F. F. Bruce prompted the Historic Adventists to wonder whether Ford had abandoned the Arminian synergistic soteriology for Calvinism’s monergism.
The Purpose
The purpose of this study was to explore to what extent Frederick F. Bruce’s Reformed views, theological assumptions, and commitments were shared by and reflected in Desmond Ford’s soteriology, and whether Ford was a Reformed theologian. Ford’s forensic view of justification by faith was elucidated as it relates to righteousness by faith and the Protestant theological tradition.
The Method
This was a comparative study with a primary focus on content and document analysis. It relied on both published and unpublished primary sources like books, periodicals, and manuscripts, accessible in various archives, libraries, and databases. Primary sources provided the necessary data to outline the soteriology of Bruce and Ford. Secondary sources were consulted to gain perspective on the topic in its historical context and for theological background.
Conclusion
This study looked at the intersection of Arminianism and Calvinism in the writings of Desmond Ford and F. F. Bruce, and found that both scholars were evangelicals, committed to the Protestant gospel of justification by faith alone. In this sense, both shared an evangelical affinity that supported and explained those theological views they held in common. But underneath the surface, in their respective theological commitments, we also found some discrepancies in their views that clarified their soteriological position and helped us identify Ford as an evangelical Arminian and Bruce as a moderate Calvinist. These findings also helped assess whether the Historic Adventists’ charge against Ford’s theology were correct. And using theological categories I was able to identify more specifically the Historic Adventists’ theological commitments and assumptions in contrast with that of Ford. Ford’s contributions to these Adventist concerns were then highlighted with the hope that further biblical studies will help future Adventists advance their soteriological and Christological views
