Sigh...

I'm still patiently waiting for the publication of the systematic theology that J. I. Packer isn't writing...

Sigh...

Devout souls do not take offence at the depths and difficulties of God's Word, but are, thereby, drawn to intenser contemplation of them. - Alexander Maclaren (1826-1910)

He published "Concise Theology" a few years ago. Do you know it?

"I once sat in darkness, and waited for the moon to rise.
I once sat in darkness, and waited for the sun to shine.
I once sat in darkness, when all the light I'd waited for was gone.
Then Jesus came, and now the only true light, ever, shines in me."
– John Deacon -

Excellent book on both substance and concision.

"Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised)"
Hebrews 10:23

Yes, I know it. And it's good.

But, like a lot of people who like Packer, I've been waiting for the 3-volume, hardback, 10,000 page (heh) tome that would be both his magnum opus and his masterpiece.

Ah, well - I can console myself with his 4-volume collection of his many fugitive pieces...

Since it took JI Packer 40 years to realize what Martyn Lloyd-Jones was trying to tell him in the 1960's, i.e. his Anglican communion was irretrievably compromised by liberalism, could it be that we should be thankful that he has not written such a theological tome?

"... Of such also, or of those who make a credible profession of being such, all those particular churches consist, which constitute our Lord's visible kingdom. ... Consequently, all the subjects of His government must have spiritual dispositions, , and yield spiritual obedience- obedience proceeding from an enlightened understanding, an awakened conscience, and a renewed heart."- Abraham Booth 1788

He wants us to read John Owen and other Puritans instead
