'Giving honour to the Spirit' : a critical analysis and evaluation of the doctrine of pneumatological union in the Trinitarian theology of Jonathan Edwards in dialogue with Karl Barth
No full textThe extent to which the 'honour' of the Spirit influenced the theology of
Jonathan Edwards is a hitherto underdeveloped theme. Against a backdrop of
Patristic thought and in dialogue with the theology of Karl Barth, evaluation is
made of pneumatological union in Edwards' Trinitarian theology as this centres
on the nature and inter-relatedness of the 'three unions' that characterize his
theology: the union of the three Persons of the Trinity, the union of the saints
with God, and the union of the divine and human natures of Christ.
Edwards' seeks to honour the Spirit as the mutual love of the Father for the Son
within his Augustinian, Lockean model of the immanent Trinity, and as 'Person'
in the economy. The challenges of doing so within the limits of this
psychological model of the Trinity are evaluated in dialogue with the
Cappadocian Fathers and Barth.
In a manner patterned after union in the Trinity, Edwards gave prominence to the
concept of the pneumatological union of the saints with God in Christ, in
fulfilment of the self-glorifying purpose of God in creation and redemption.
Edwards' experiential theology of conversion, and his elevation of subjective
sanctification by the Spirit over objective justification in Christ, for assurance, is
contrasted with Barth's greater emphases on the Christological union of God
with humanity and objective justification in Christ. Barth's more contemplative
approach is contrasted with the overly introspective spirituality of Edwards.
Edwards' view of the role of the Spirit in the hypostatic union of God with
humanity in Christ, which is reflective of the other unions, is also evaluated in
light of Patristic, Reformed-Puritan and Barthian thought on the nature of the
humanity Christ assumed, and the doctrine of the vicarious humanity of Christ. A
more emphatic incarnational emphasis may have saved Edwards' Spirit-
honouring spirituality from an anthropocentricity which is ironical given that the
glory of God is his ontic doxological concern
No. 617 Stuart Ruckman
No full textTranscript (12, 40 pages) of two interviews by Matt Driscoll with Stuart Ruckman on April 9, 2010, and July 7, 2011Ruckman (b. 1966) was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. Stuart shares how his family, particularly his father, played a significant role in introducing him to the outdoors. Some of his initial explorations included a hike to the top of Mount Olympus when he was five years old, backpacking trips in the Wasatch and Uinta Mountains, and a successful summit attempt on the Grand Teton when he was twelve. Stuart discovered technical rock climbing due to the influence of his older brother Bret, five years Stuart\u27s senior. Bret learned under Dennis Turville, a well-respected Salt Lake climbing instructor. Stuart shares his observations on the Salt Lake climbing community of the late 1970s and 1980s, noting the intimacy of the community, while also pointing out the significant influence of a handful of climbers, including Merrill Bitter, Les Ellison, and Brian Smoot. He briefly describes the proliferation of new-route development in the Wasatch during his first decade in climbing. In collaboration with his brother Bret, Stuart published comprehensive guidebooks on climbing in the Wasatch Mountains. Stuart\u27s contributions as a first-ascensionist and co-author of Rock Climbing the Wasatch Range attest to his lasting impact on Utah climbing. Interview is part of the Outdoor Recreation History Project. Interviewer: Matt Driscol

Carbonate rock-water diagenesis lower cretaceous, Stuart City Trend, South Texas
No full textThe Stuart City Trend in south Texas is a Lower Cretaceous shelf-edge buildup of bioclastic and reefal carbonates. This carbonate system is currently buried to depths of between 3,300 and 5,000 meters. Combined with the equivalent updip shallow water, shelf carbonates of the Edwards and Glen Rose Formations, these carbonates form an extensive Gulfward dipping carbonate wedge. The whole-rock chemical and isotopic characteristics of the limestones of the Stuart City are the product of their initial composition and early surface and near-surface diagenetic history. Burial diagenesis has not significantly altered the chemical and isotopic character of these limestones. Marine diagenesis was volumetrically important and consisted of micritization and the precipitation of fine to very coarsely crystalline, fibrous to bladed, isopachous, Mg-calcite cements. These cements have been neomorphically altered to calcite, while still retaining a Mg⁺⁺ memory and a marine-like isotopic character. Diagenesis by meteoric water was volumetrically important in altering the depositional character of the carbonate sediments associated with the topographic highs along the Stuart City Trend. Secondary porosity formation, Mg-calcite and aragonite stabilization and equant spar calcite cementation are important products of this diagenesis. The equant spar calcite cements are poor in iron and manganese. They make up approximately 16 percent by volume of the limestones studied. The majority of these cements have δ¹³C compositions which fall in the range of modern marine carbonates [...]. Oxygen isotopic variability of the equant spar calcites is controlled by the δ¹⁸O composition of the diagenetic fluids and the degree of openness of the carbonate sediments to these fluids. Thermally induced ¹⁸O depletion in the equant spar calcites was of secondary importance. Pyrobitumen pore fillings and inclusions in the outer one millimeter rims of the very coarsely crystalline, equant spar calcite cements indicate that only minor amounts of calcite cementation have occurred since hydrocarbon migration. These hydrocarbons are believed to have originated from Jurassic and Cretaceous source rocks. Deep burial diagenesis, i.e., post hydrocarbon migration, consisted of the precipitation of minor amounts of galena, fluorite and Sr⁺⁺-rich equant spar calcites. These diagenetic events can be directly related to the chemistry of present-day formation waters. The densities of sodium-calcium-chloride brines of the Edwards Formation and of the Stuart City Trend range from 1.018 grams per cm³ in the shallow, updip hydrocarbon fields to more than 1.21 grams per cm³ in the deepest hydrocarbon fields. The oxygen isotopic composition of the formation waters becomes increasingly enriched in ¹⁸O with increasing depth. Interaction of the formation waters with the carbonate country rock at elevated temperatures is responsible for this enrichment trend. The Mg⁺⁺/Ca⁺⁺ ratio of the formation waters increases with decreasing depth. Dedolomitization and dolomite dissolution are the major diagenetic processes responsible for Mg⁺⁺ enrichment. Movement of deeper basinal waters, potentially of Jurassic origin, into the Stuart City Trend and Edwards Formation is occurring via major faultsEarth and Planetary Science
George MacLeod’s open-air preaching: performance and counter-performance
No full textStuart Blythe uses the methodology of performance to analyse George MacLeod’s open-air preaching. He points out that MacLeod’s preaching was derived from a theology of the incarnation, and an understanding of the paradoxes and dichotomies of common human life. This preaching, Blythe suggests, was also a counter-performance in the context of outlooks and ideologies inimical to the gospel. The paper raises interesting issues related to preaching as performance, and the further question as to whether or not the life and work of the Church as a whole might now be better understood as a counter-performance.Publisher PD

John Edwards of Cambridge (1637-1716): A reassessment of his location within the later Stuart Church of England
No full textThis study focuses on John Edwards of Cambridge (1637-1716) and the broader Reformed tradition within the later Stuart Church of England. Its central thesis is that, contrary to the claims of older scholarship, Edwards was not a marginalized figure in the Church of England on account of his ‘Calvinism’. Instead, this study demonstrates that Edwards was recognized in his own day and in the immediately following generations as one of the preeminent conforming divines of the period, and that his theological and polemical works, despite some Arminian opposition, enjoyed a very positive reception among significant segments of the established Church’s clergy, many of whom shared his Reformed doctrinal convictions. Instead of a theological misfit as he has often been portrayed, this study contends that the Reformed polemicist Edwards was a decidedly mainstream figure in the established Church of his day.
Overall, this study makes a substantial contribution to the largely uncharted field of later Stuart and early Hanoverian Church of England theology, and demonstrates that future accounts of the established Church in this period will have to afford both Edwards and his numerous Reformed contemporaries a considerably more prominent place than has hitherto been the case. It not only confirms Stephen Hampton’s work on the persisting vitality of Reformed theology within the established Church during this period, but substantially develops it by demonstrating that Hampton’s revisionist thesis significantly underestimated Edwards’ stature within the Church as well as the strength and numbers of conforming Reformed divines between the Restoration and the evangelical revivals (1660 – c. 1730).
Finally, this study problematizes scholarly depictions of the later Stuart Church of England as having developed a fairly homogeneous ‘Anglican’ theological identity, and argues instead that the established Church in this period was rather variegated in terms of theological doctrine, churchmanship, and politics
Redemption in the work of Francis Stuart
No full textThe idea of redemption is central to an understanding of the work
of Francis Stuart. Through an examination of its development and
expression, it is possible to demonstrate the integrity of his work and
its distinctive qualities. Such a demonstration is necessary because
Stuart's writing has been subjected to comparatively little scholarly
inquiry, although reviews of his work, especially that produced since
1949, suggest that it is impressive and important.
First, a general background to Stuart's work, a discussion of the
special problems associated with reading it, and a summary of his corpus
is provided. This indicates that the idea of redemption is important to
his earliest writing. The state of redemption is shown to be a
necessary apotheosis for Stuart's outcast heroes; it involves spiritual
suffering through which may be found a sense of reintegration and a
higher reality. This is expressed through interrelated themes such as
those of gambler, artist and ordinary man; mystic and criminal; sacred
and profane love; and spirituality and the mundane. The nature of the
redemptive experience is further elaborated by distinctive, complex
motifs, especially the hare, the ark and the woman-Christ. Their
recurrence provides an important element in the unity of Stuart's work.
Because Stuart's idea of the outcast raises important biographical
questions, an examination of the relationship between Stuart's life and
his work is made. Finally, the way in which the idea of redemption
exists in the language structures of Stuart's novels is examined, with
especial reference to his most recent work, The High Consistory. The
thesis shows that the development of the these of redemption
demonstrates the integrity of Stuart's work
