![]() ![]() Allen and Swain demonstrate that sola scriptura, properly understood, is a claim for, not against, both church and tradition (again, properly understood). ![]() Particularly insightful are the chapters on sola scriptura ("scripture alone"), which both reinforce the book's argument in toto and illustrate "retrieval" through some fine engagement with Martin Luther, Martin Bucer, and others. ![]() Allen and Swain present a vision for Protestant engagement with the Church's past and the saints that populate that past that every evangelical Christian really should read. In my humble judgment, Reformed Catholicity: The Promise of Retrieval for Theology and Biblical Interpretation, written by Michael Allen and Ref21's own Scott Swain, deserves book of the year status. ![]()
