as cited in Richard Pratt's He Gave Us Stories, p. 395:
"The consistency that is found in the believer is correspondent to the consistency that is found in God. This consistency in the believer consists in willingess to think God's thoughts after him, in willingness to do God's will after him, and to feel God's feelings after him."
ok that last one is what gets me.
do you think van til means "consistency" as in "what is the consistency of this polenta?" or "are you going to commit to consistency in your walk-like-an-elephant exercise class?"
do you think this is true?
does anyone have van til's Introduction to Systematic Theology who wouldn't mind looking it up? (it should be on p. 245)
a bunch of rambling thoughts, many of which relate to hymns and songs, theology and books, movies and tv, food and fashion, politics and the drama that is my life, but nothing really makes a consistent appearance except pictures.
