Think Wink.

Michael F. Bird plans to present the following paper at the Evangelical Theological Society this month. By looking at Galatians 2:11-21 and the key terms of “works of law,” “faith of Christ,” and “righteousness,” Bird tries to present a middle ground between the traditional Reformed view of Paul and the New Perspective on Paul that seeks to correct the Reformed view where needed and to reinforce what needs to stay. I found this paper very informative and enjoyed it tremendously. I especially liked his call to read Paul in a more redemptive-historical approach, which needs to be done. This online edition is not the final draft that will be presented at the ETS in Boston, so it isn’t his final word for this topic. But it is informative so read it.
