Part I is here. The exact date of Luther’s conversion is debated. We do know that some time between 1513 and 1518 Luther understood the doctrine of justification by faith. His study of Paul’s epistles to the Romans and Galatians forced him to reckon with...

Response to Schreiner on the Sabbath: #2
It appears to me that Dr. Schreiner sees three functions of the Sabbath. The first is related to old covenant Israel. It was a sign between God and Israel. It was a shadow. It was temporary. It was fulfilled in Christ. The Sabbath no longer functions as it once did. The second function is eschatological. It is a foreshadow of eschatological rest that “will be fulfilled on the final day when believers rest from earthly labors” (These are Dr. Schreiner’s words.). It still functions this way. “The Sabbath, then, points [notice the present tense] to the final rest of the people of God” (Dr. Schreiner’s words). Its third function would be to require (?) regular physical rest for believers.

He was 32 years old and just embarking upon his teaching ministry at Princeton. Vos spoke as a representative of Reformed orthodox theology on an issue that had been the nearly exclusive property “of the liberal/critical biblical-theological enterprise” for over 100 years.
