1. SEBTS Adams Lecture - Hugh Anderson February 14, 1986

Beschreibung:
Hugh Anderson was the Professor of New Testament at the University of Edinburgh. The service begins with a word of prayer (0:00-1:09). Hugh Anderson is introduced as the Adams Lecturer (1:10-3:27). Anderson introduces his presentation by explaining his intention to offer his observations on the book of Revelation and expresses his gratitude for being asked to speak (3:28-6:23). Anderson provides context for the various beliefs of Scriptural inerrancy and contextual situation, including the criticism of Charles Augustus Briggs and I. A. Dorner (6:24-12:00). He speaks on theologians and scholars who had strong opinions about the God-given authority and inspiration of Scripture and how a lack of critical Biblical judgement caused a failure of influence in America because ministers believed they could not afford such intellectual problems (12:01-15:45). Critical analysis of the Bible became something that was done in the pulpit and the pews rather than in scholarly institutions (15:46-16:55). Anderson speaks about the crisis historical criticism has created within the scholarly arena and lists reasons why he believes that is (16:56-26:58). Anderson desires to argue against the criticisms leveled against the historical approach to understanding Scripture because he believes historical context is helpful (26:59-28:44). Anderson turns to provide an overview of the Apocalypse in Revelation through the lens of the historical crisis, speaking on the fascination people have with the end of this life, the genre of the book of Revelation, the beliefs of what the images mean, and the impact the understanding of the book has on society (28:45-29:58). Anderson shares that the book of Revelation is either looked upon with affection or with hatred because of one’s interpretation of it (29:59-37:52). He speaks about the interpretation of the term “pharmakeia” to mean either “drugs” or “witchcraft” and the interpretation of “wine” to be a symbol of bloodshed (37:53-42:19). Anderson argues that Revelation should be understood through the letters written to the churches and the visions that follow and when it is set against its historic background (42:20-56:55). The service closes in a moment of prayer (56:56-58:02).

3. SEBTS Adams Lecture - Hugh Anderson February 11, 1986

Beschreibung:
Hugh Anderson was the Professor of New Testament at the University of Edinburgh. The service begins with organ music (0:00-4:02). There is a moment of prayer (4:03-4:35). There is a welcome extended to the guests of the Adams Lectures (4:36-8:15). Hugh Anderson is introduced as the Adams Lecturer (8:16-12:35). Anderson expresses his gratitude for being able to speak and shares his experience in preaching (12:36-16:20). He speaks about the place, significance, and function of preaching (16:21-20:24). Anderson shares about how a pastor shares Scripture and teaching with his or her community and how he or she spends time in prayer and devotion (20:25-25:52). He speaks about how pastors should imitate Paul as he spoke in a way that the people he was speaking to might better understand the gospel (25:53-31:08). He speaks on the joy of exploring the Bible and that one must always return to Scripture as the source of truth and the importance of expositional preaching (31:09-36:31). Anderson speaks about the expectation of preachers to have “achieved an almost angelic status by being able to proclaim ‘I am saved. I know it beyond any trace of a shadow of a doubt.’” and the danger of the idolization of the preacher (36:32-39:04). He uses Paul’s example that the first and last concern of a preacher should be to glorify God, that all Biblical teaching must be theocentric rather than anthropocentrism (39:05-44:34). Anderson argues that putting God on trial and prosecuting Him is rooted in Scripture, giving examples from Jacob wrestling God in Genesis, the repeated protestations of the Psalmist, Job lifting his fist to God, and Jesus asking why God has forsaken Him on the cross, but that God judges those who disobey (44:35-53:13). Anderson explores the manner in which Ezekiel received his message from God, that he should eat it (53:14-56:02). He explains that preaching is a “risky business” because of the constraint to place oneself in front of the text in ignorance (56:03-59:21). The service closes in a word of prayer (59:22-59:59).

4. SEBTS Adams Lecture - Hugh Anderson February 13, 1986

Beschreibung:
Hugh Anderson was the Professor of New Testament at the University of Edinburgh. The service begins with a word of prayer (0:00-0:45). Hugh Anderson is thanked for speaking as the Adams Lecturer (0:46-2:58). Anderson shares his gratefulness for the tribute he has been given (2:59-5:05). Anderson shares about the four gospels in the New Testament (5:06-7:13). He speaks about the fundamentalist and conservative evangelicals and shares his concern about those who receive theological training who do not share the critical techniques with their churches (7:14-14:28). Anderson shares two results of the reformed critical approach of the gospels and gives examples of how to teach such an approach: first, that the disciples were speaking theologically instead of historically and that the preacher should teach it in the same way, and second, that the authors of the gospel related the material in their books to real life situations (14:29-31:44). Anderson speaks about the ways people interpret the gospels and teach them, giving an example of his own method using the text of Mark 8:13-21 (31:45-48:18). Anderson remarks about his wonder on how young pastors relate to those with lifetime experiences in their congregations (48:19-51:00). He says that “imagination is the indispensable companion of authentic Christian hope” (51:01-54:46). There is an announcement for a picture taking session (54:47-55:14). The service closes in a blessing (55:15-55:34).

5. SEBTS Adams Lecture - Hugh Anderson February 12, 1986

Beschreibung:
Hugh Anderson was the Professor of New Testament at the University of Edinburgh. Hugh Anderson is introduced as the Adams Lecturer (0:00-2:07). Anderson desires to share the ties that bind the Old and New Testament (2:08-3:34). He speaks about the common but false belief that there is not much, if any, correlation between the Old and New Testament and that the Old Testament has very little, if any, importance, and gives reasons for the falsity of such a belief, such as Jesus’ own statements in the New Testament books of the gospel referring directly to the Old Testament (3:35-15:52). Anderson speaks on how badmouthing the word of God deprives God of His story (15:23-18:41). Anderson reminds the congregation of two phenomena which inspire one for his task: one should study the Bible in Hebrew as it was written and that the Bible did not come down from heaven in one great swoop, but “represents a never-ending process of translation at the human level,” emphasizing the impact the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible brought to the world (18:42-24:22). Anderson speaks on how “the Christ story is the decisive installment of the serial story of the God who can turn even the wrath of man to His praise and can use even pagan emperors in His service” (24:23-28:18). He speaks on how the author of Hebrews “develops his brilliant witness to Christ as our great High Priest after the order of Melchizedek” by referencing a significant amount of the Old Testament (28:19-29:34). Anderson speaks on how the apostle Paul uses the Old Testament (29:35-32:28). Anderson moves on to a sermon he has previously preached about Proverbs 17:24 and Hebrews 13:13-14, linking the Old Testament with the New (32:29-34:40). He shares a story to illustrate the reverence for life in light of both practical wisdom and the dream of a higher humanity, hoping that it has been taught that thinking and action go hand in hand (34:41-42:40). Anderson speaks of the human longing for another place beyond this world (42:41-51:54). The service closes with a moment of prayer (51:55-52:38).
