Question about "The Christian Faith" - Horton
I recently listened to the White Horse Inn and Michael Horton is giving lectures on how to read your bible covering each genre. I wondering if he covers this in the above mentioned resource or anywhere else?
Thanks

Christian Faith is a systematic theology that goes through Bible doctrines, rather than through Bible books (Christian Faith is called Introducing Covenant Theology in an earlier edition). I have ten Horton books in my library, but I'm not aware of a book where he does that, sorry.

Mike, I have been listening to the White Horse Inn series too. It is excellent.
Yes, Mark. The Christian Faith is Horton's Systematic theology. Thanks for pointing that out. Introducing Covenant Theology is a different book that is more along the lines of Horton's White Horse Inn series "How to Read Your Bible." It approaches scripture from a biblical theological perspective organized around covenant.
Mike, some other good works on biblical theology that cover more in-depth the content Horton presents are:
The Select Works of Geerhardus Vos (14 vols.). Vos is the father of Reformed biblical theology.
Herman Witsius Collection (11 vols.). Witsius was one of the greatest Reformed covenant theologians with in-depth exegesis and insight into the sweeping unity of Scripture.
would highly recommend getting Horton's Introducing Covenant Theology. Another good audio resource covering biblical theology is Miles Van Pelt's lectures here. Also check out Lee Iron's series "The Unfolding Mystery" and Introduction to Kline" here.
Hope that helps!

Does anybody know if this was ever in community pricing? If so, how much did it go for? Thanks.

ChelseaFCNo it never was in community pricing. What you pay for now is the lowest it ever was.

Sorry about that. You're right. I knew that I'd accidentally purchased Introducing Covenant Theology and then realised I already had the book under another title. Introducing Covenant Theology was previously called God of Promise.

CP is almost always reserved for works in the Public Domain, and most of this collection isn't in PD.

Are you referring to the Michael Horton lectures? They are the last 3 or 4 audio lectures available at his WHI website.
