Inspiration and Its Enemies

Why should we frame our doctrine of Scripture through the biblical imagery of light? Is God the source of Scripture and why should all Scripture be called God’s word? In light of Karl Barth, can we still say that that Scripture itself is the word of God? How can the doctrine of providence help our doctrine of inspiration? Is the analogy of the hypostatic union helpful or problematic?

In this episode of the Credo podcast, Dr. Matthew Barrett talks with John Feinberg about inspiration and its importance.

John S. Feinberg (Phd, University of Chicago) is Chair of the Biblical and Systematic Theology Department and Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, where he has served since 1983. He has written numerous articles and books, including Light in a Dark Place, No One Like Him, Ethics for a Brave New World, and Continuity and Discontinuity. Dr. Feinberg also serves as general editor of Crossway’s Foundations of Evangelical Theology series.
