Themelios 18:3
디지털 Logos 에디션
Overview
Themelios is an international evangelical theological journal that expounds and defends the historic Christian faith. Its primary audience is theological students and pastors, though scholars read it as well. It was formerly a print journal operated by RTSF/UCCF in the United Kingdom, and it became a digital journal operated by The Gospel Coalition in 2008. The new editorial team, led by D.A. Carson, seeks to preserve representation, in both essayists and reviewers, from both sides of the Atlantic. Each issue contains articles on important theological themes, as well as book reviews and discussion—from the most important evangelical voices of our time.

“With the Reformers, it is fair to speak of this image of God as ‘moral’; with more recent theologies, it is important to point out that all the elements are ‘relational’ or interpersonal in nature. As the image of God is increasingly perfected in redeemed humanity, persons are enabled not only to relate more adequately to God but also to other people.” (Page 9)
“In fact, the rainbow of character traits revealed in Exodus 34:6–7 finds echoes in virtually every major NT listing of cardinal attributes incumbent for believers.” (Page 9)
“Notice how easy it was for the couple to forget God’s word the minute he was absent, even in the midst of his creation.” (Page 17)
“Yet Genesis 9:6 and James 3:9 both seem to require that God’s image, to some significant degree, remains in all humans even after the fall. In addition, moral awareness (knowledge of good and evil) is precisely what the creation narratives suggest Adam and Eve did not have, prior to the fall.14 Still, being in a state of moral perfection is not the same as consciousness of that perfection or of the means to maintain it.” (Page 9)
“But all these views depend less on exegesis than on philosophy, as they try to answer the question of what humans and God have in common that sets them apart from the rest of created life.” (Page 8)
