Has anyone read Imagining a Vain Thing or was familiar with the controversy surrounding Dr. Gage of Knox Theological Seminary. I was given a copy of the book last evening (published by the Trinity Foundation and written by Steven T. Matthews) and began reading the foreword this morning). I was not aware that Knox Seminary had gone through a "collapse," to use the author's terminology.

It is God that multiplies our sorrows.... God, as a righteous Judge, does it, which ought to silence us under all our sorrows; as many as they are, we have deserved them all, and more: nay, God, as a tender Father, does it for our necessary correction, that we may be humbled for sin, and weaned from the world by all our sorrows; and the good we get by them, with the comfort we have under them, will abundantly balance our sorrows, how greatly soever they are multiplied. - Matthew Henry

I'm sure when all the smoke clears, we'll hear what the upshot was. I'm waiting for a church court to rule on whether Dr. Gage's views were orthodox. Until then, I have no opinion.
