2. CARL F. H. HENRY REVELATION, AUTHORITY, AND INERRANCY ACCORDING TO... 1913-2003 By David Myers GB 5443 Historical Theology II

3. Theologian, journalist, and evangelical leader Carl F.H. Henry died Sunday, December 7, at age 90 in his longtime home of Watertown, Wisconsin. Henry made it his life's work to present biblical Christianity as intellectually credible and historically true. On the battlefields of modern theological thought, spanning seminaries, denominations, and media, Henry shaped the defenses of evangelicalism with two goals in mind: preserving truth and attracting nonbelievers.” "Carl F.H. Henry, Theologian and First Editor of Christianity Today, Dies at 90" "Thinker helped to shape many evangelical institutions and efforts, from higher education to ecumenism.

4. “... In more than 40 books he wrote or edited, Dr. Henry laid out an intellectual defense both for a literal understanding of Scripture and for the imperative of spreading the faith. David Neff, the current editor of Christianity Today, said in an interview, ''If we see Billy Graham as the great public face and generous spirit of the evangelical movement, Carl Henry was the brains.'’ Dr. Henry helped start several of the institutional pillars of the evangelical movement: Fuller Theological Seminary... the National Association of Evangelicals, in addition to Christianity Today.

5. ... By the 1940's, fundamentalist Christianity was in retreat. Many fundamentalists were isolating themselves from society and focusing instead on building churches and families untarnished by mainstream culture.” Dr. Henry came to prominence in 1947 with his book ''The Uneasy Conscience of Modern Fundamentalism.'' He argued that Christians needed to assert themselves, not withdraw, and to inspire others to turn to Christ not by coercion but by example. ''That was a turning point in the church,'' Charles W. Colson said in an interview... ''What he did was to reawaken the evangelical heritage of the Rev. Dr. Carl F. H. Henry, 90, Brain of Evangelical Movement (cont.)

6. He taught at several universities and in 1983 completed a six-volume work, ''God, Revelation and Authority.'’... In later years, Dr. Henry quietly criticized some of the same institutions he had helped establish for going too far to accommodate contemporary cultural and political trends. ''The clergy,'' he once said, '’... when they pronounce their fallible ideas with presumptive piety they encourage public doubt about the church's possession of an authentic word of God in the theological and moral realm.''

8. By the turn of the twentieth century, what Henry called the “natural perfectibility of man” was a well-accepted implication of evolutionary philosophy. The prevailing mindset no longer thought of humanity as having a proclivity towards “evil and sin.” Instead, mankind was progressing! Contrary to Jeremiah 10:23, man was proving he could direct his own steps.

9. “The enthronement of scientific method involved numerous implications. For one thing, it struck vigorously at the notion of the miraculous, and fixed upon repeatable and experimentally verifiable events as the most important happenings: all else was identified with the disorderly, the disteleological, the unmeaningful. Furthermore, the scientific method encouraged the conviction that nature is the ultimate real; the supernatural came to be viewed as a projection of the emotional or irrational element in man, or as some mysterious fringe of the natural world which had not yet been brought within the scope of science (Henry, The Protestant Dilemma, 20- 21).” Storm Calmed Manna and Quail Syrian Defeat Water from Rock Lot’s Wife Job’s Circumstances Babel Tribute Money Leprous Hand Blind Elymus Jonah: Gourd & Worm Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin Voice from Heaven Cloud & Pillar of Fire Fire & Brimstone Star Fiery Furnace Fig Tree Temple Veil Torn Raven Bronze Serpent Aaron’s Rod Samson’s Strength Tongues Nadab & Abihu Jonah’s Fish

10. “ And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins! Then also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable. But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.” (1 Corinthians 15:17-20, NKJV)
