I have the utmost respect for Cornelius Van Til, from which I possess a few good books. He was a key figure in shaping my theological thought although ironically he participated in convincing me to become a horrible infralapsarian because of the inconsistency of his views about God's knowledge of the created universe. Van Til brought in deep conversation between theology and philosophy, a synthesis the level of which I only found in my other favorite theologian, Paul Tillich, ironically at the other end of the orthodox-liberal spectrum.
Glad to see Dr Gaffin is doing well and still as sharp as ever. He was one of my favorite professor's.

I am currently reading through the five volume set of Vos's "Reformed Dogmatics" and loving it. My thanks to Dr. Gaffin for this work.
Excellent Theologian.
I miss him. Will meet him via his new book!
Does anyone know what article in the "International Journal of Systematic Theology" he is referencing?
