Lane G. Tipton (Ph.D., Westminster Theological Seminary) is the pastor at Trinity Orthodox Presbyterian Church in Easton, PA, and a fellow of Systematic and Biblical Theology for Reformed Forum.

MissionThe core of the Christian profession is, according to Warfield, the confession of a supernatural God, who may and does act in a supernatural mode, and who acting in a supernatural mode has wrought out for us a supernatural redemption, interpreted in supernatural revelation, and applied by the supernatural operations of His Spirit. The starting point of Warfield's theology was the majesty of God and his authority over creation.

HistoryBenjamin Breckinridge Warfield was born near Lexington, Kentucky on the 5th of November in 1851. He graduated from Princeton in 1871 with the highest of honors at the age of nineteen, excelling in mathematics and physics. While studying in Europe, he announced his intention to prepare for Christian ministry. Upon graduating from Princeton Theological Seminary in 1876, he returned to Europe again to further his studies. Returning to America, Warfield served a short period as a pastor and then accepted a position in the Department of New Testament Language and Literature at Western Theological Seminary. He remained there for nine years. In 1887, he was called to Princeton Theological Seminary to succeed A.A. Hodge as the Charles Hodge professor of Didactic and Polemic Theology. He continued in this position for thirty-three years until his death on the 17th of February 1921. Dr. Warfield combined erudition in Greek exegesis, systematic theology, and church history. He was a tireless defender of the Reformed faith. |
