Plus, not many theologians write 9,000 page ST.

He certainly considered himself Reformed. However, he would never have been accepted on PB.
That's good. His followers have been a thorn in my side in the PCUSA. I've studied the good and great theologians. I've been wondering why people don't stick with the greats instead of going for what's trendy or modern? The classical theological categories seem far better than redefining them. The Christianity Today or Christianity Yesterday is hilarious! For He's the same, Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow!
