Berkhof examines the nature of Jesus in relation to God and to our human nature, and he concludes that Jesus was a human who participated in the divinity of the Father so that the rest of humanity can participate in that same divinity (10:50-30:20). Berkhof speaks briefly about two books written by Catholic theologians that caused a stir in the Vatican, and he says these books give a Christology of Jesus that speak of his death and resurrection as the revelation of God’s word to humanity (30:21-37:26).

The choir sings a song of worship (08:00-11:41). Fant’s lecture is entitled “Reformers, The Sermon and Sacrament,” and he begins by telling a funny story that illustrates the struggle of preachers to find wings for their words (11:42-18:03). Fant examines the sermons of proto-reformers John Wycliff and Girolamo Savonarola, and he says that both figures went against the preaching of their time because their preaching was tethered to biblical doctrine and in contrast to culture (18:04-32:19). Fant briefly criticizes the church for embracing preaching that is not in contrast with culture (32:20-37:28).

Fant traces the history of preaching starting with John the Baptist and ending with Origen, John Chrysostom, and Augustine, and he believes these preaching never lost sight of the importance of God’s voice even though the culture had a heavy influence on their preaching (0:27:04-0:49:05). Fant criticizes the scholastic preachers such as Bernard of Clairvaux and Francis of Assisi who were bogged down by allegorical interpretation and philosophical preaching, and he believes Southern Baptists are falling into the problems of worldly and legalistic preaching that is similar to dry scholasticism (0:49:06-1:01:41).

- Description:
- Walter B. Shurden was Professor of Church History at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. The service begins with a word of prayer (00:00-00:50). Walter B. Shurden is introduced as the Carver-Barnes Lecturer (00:51-06:25). Shurden’s lecture is entitled “The Southern Baptist Synthesis: Is it Cracking,” and he begins by stating that Southern Baptists have built a synthesis that began in the eighteenth century that is starting to erode (06:26-11:12). He states that the Southern Baptist tradition began in Charleston, SC, and that tradition had five characteristics: pietistic puritanism, Calvinistic confessionalism, quasi connectionism, church liturgicalism, and a commitment to theological education, all defined by order (11:13-18:10). Shurden then moves to the Sandy Creek tradition of Southern Baptists which was defined by its ardor, and it had four characteristics: revivalism, charismatic ministry, rugged independence, and strict biblicism (18:11-25:04). He then speaks about the Georgia tradition of Southern Baptists which was defined by local color, and this tradition was characterised by denominationalism and sectionalism (25:05-31:10). He then speaks about the Tennessee tradition of Southern Baptists which was defined by questionable honor, and this tradition gave Southern Baptist a sense of identity based on a fallacious history (31:11-33:18). Shurden believes that denominationalism won out and brought these four traditions together, but denominationalism is under attack (33:19-40:17). He believes there have been four stress points that is bringing cracks to the Southern Baptist synthesis, and these stress points are cultural stress, denominational stress, and financial stress (40:18-45:14). Shurden concludes his lecture by stating that the Southern Baptist synthesis is not breaking, but it is being reshaped (45:15-48:05). The service ends with a word of prayer (48:06-49:01).
