I read with interest the Christianity Today interview with the new president of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, Dennis Hollinger. There was one particular response which caused me to raise my eyebrows. When asked about inerrancy at Gordon-Conwell, Hollinger completely avoided the question by talking about proper interpretive practice. When someone avoids a question such as this they need to be pressed on it further. There is no one of any theological stripe that would disagree with what Hollinger said about understanding the genre of revelation, so why say it? I have to wonder what he is hiding? I don’t want to be suspicious, but his answer with a non-answer approach makes me wonder.
Here is the question and answer. Am I reading too much into this?
