Memorials to British Theologian John Webster

Memorials to British Theologian John Webster May 27, 2016

I’m sure many of you have heard the news this week that British theologian John Webster unexpectedly passed away. Webster was a professor at St. Andrews University in Scotland and a celebrated Christian scholar.

Stephen Holmes wrote a tribute to Webster for Christian Today and over at Mere Orthodoxy are some nice words about Webster’s description.

I never met Webster, but I do recollect an excellent paper he gave at Tyndale House several years ago on divine immutability and divine impassibility that I found rather convincing. In addition, I loved his description of theology as “biblical reasoning” and especially his articulations of the place of the gospel in Christian theology.

May he rest in peace and rise in glory!
