From The Editor’s Desk

Dear Reader,

Welcome to our fall edition of the JMAT.

This fall issue we are pleased to highlight Terry Perrine’s article on infant salvation. Terry, one of Baptist Bible Seminary MDiv students, won the 2018 Zondervan Theology Award at BBS for her What Happens to Infants Who Die? The BBS faculty is proud of Terry’s accomplishment. This issue also highlights A. W. Morris, a current BBS PhD student in OT, who challenges the current view that the creation account of Genesis should be understood “functionally” and not materially in his, The Lost Truth of Genesis.

Also, in this issue we are introducing an occasional column entitled

Ἐν ἀρχῇ. In this piece I will sit down and discuss the genesis of the article with the author. For our inaugural column David Mappes and I sat down to discuss his review of Andy Stanley’s, Irresistible. This book is unsettling at best and needs a theologian’s insight and critique to help the church navigate Stanley’s incorrect view of the Old Testament.

Rounding out our fall edition Jared August discusses the Hope of an Eschatological Mediator in Genesis and Deuteronomy. The folks at Teleios Research Center share their findings concerning The Influence of Church on Wellbeing in Adolescents and Millennials. Scott Aniol looks back in Church History in his, Worship as Divider and Unifier: A Comparison of the Reformation with Contemporary Evangelicalism. Wayne Slusser completes our articles with his part two: (Re)Defining the Gospels: Mark as a Test Case.

Since you share our passion for biblical truth, I invite you to enjoy this edition of the JMAT. At the JMAT we seek to serve our Savior, and you, our reader. I look forward to hearing from you.

Mark McGinniss, PhD
