Matthew's Gospel on the cosmic significance of Christ's coming

Van Til continues to show the Kantian roots of Barth's theology, arguing that Barth's use of language does not make him orthodox, since he means something entirely different by the common terms he uses.

Van Til introduces G.C. Berkouwer and his relation to neo-orthodox thinkers such as Barth and Von Balthasar. He also provides behind-the-scenes details about Westminster's split from Princeton and the ensuing aftermath.

Van Til continues his discussion of the Creator-creature distinction in contrast to the Greek form-matter scheme, as well as the thought of Clement and Origen. For Van Til, we must continue to challenge the fundamental assumptions of unbelieving thought, including assumptions about God and the nature of man.

Van Til lectures on the genius of St. Augustine and how he continued to struggle with platonic influence, even though his biblical faith was sincere and won out over Platonism.

Van Til explores Greek thought in more detail, showing the tendency for philosophers to reject the Creator-creature distinction and assume autonomy and neutrality in thinking.

Van Til responds to the popular "God is dead" claim in mainstream media, along with its liberal theological supporters. He affirms the biblical response of man's creaturehood and his submission to God's authority. He shows again how prevalent the notion of autonomy is to ancient and modern thought.

Continuing his critique of Barth, Van Til develops a response to Emil Brunner. He focuses here on the neo-orthodox understanding of God's Word and the subject-object relationship of orthodox faith, which Brunner criticises.

Van Til goes further in his critique of Emil Brunner and Karl Barth's view of revelation and Scripture. He shows that neo-orthodox theologians identify God as only his act, that who God is must only be what God does, especially what God does for us in Christ. This undermines the doctrine of Scripture and all traditional teachings of orthodoxy.

Van Til explores the thought of Immanuel Kant and his approach to knowledge through the mind imposing categories on the raw material of reality. He once again points out how this approach presupposes man's autonomy and the rebellion against God's revelation of himself.

Van Til contrasts the Christian position with the "monisms" of Greek and modern thought, arguing that only Christianity has a way forward.

Van Til continues his lecture on Augustine, showing how his thought was still based on a Greek notion of being. He also discusses Christian ethics based on the Westminster Confession and how they reveal the problems with Greek ethics.

Van Til sets out the Christian position rooted in the Trinity and contrasts this with the modern approaches to God of using bare reason.

Van Til once again discusses the thought of Kant and its relation to Karl Barth, highlighting the prevalence of autonomy in modern theology.

Van Til moves on from Kant to talk about those who built on his thought, especially Karl Barth. He offers a critique of those who, as Barth, use traditional language but mean something entirely different by it.

Van Til calls on Christians to wage war against Satan in the realm of culture by reclaiming Christian education for Christ.

Van Til lectures on the genius of St. Augustine and how he continued to struggle with platonic influence, even though his biblical faith was sincere and won out over Platonism.

Van Til makes a passionate plea for Calvinism in America to start engaging more with culture and the public square, in the spirit of Abraham Kuyper.

Van Til discusses the point of contact, autonomy, the antithesis between belief and unbelief, the roles of faith and reason, and the theistic proofs.

Van Til discusses the foundational difference between biblical faith and unbelieving philosophy as expressed in Roman Catholicism, Joseph Butler, Aquinas, and Aristotle. The Creator-creature distinction, he argues, requires humans to submit to the incomprehensibility of God in their thinking.

History and Nature of Apologetics: Patterns of Thinking and the Gospel (Part 2)

Van Til offers reflections on the importance of singing about Jesus's victory over sin and death.

Creeds and confessions are the banner of the church militant. They contain statements of doctrine that are to be believed, for knowledge unto godliness; and are to be confessed, for the ministry of the church unto the world. In this way, creeds and confessions are for each member of Christ’s body, and for the body as a whole. In this podcast Nathan Nocchi chats with Dr. Peter Lillback about a project that he has been working for close to fifty years.

Van Til explains the biblical and pauline basis for apologetics and evangelism before contrasting it with Greek philosophy and ethics. He also engages with Plotinus and Augustine as they were appropriated in the Middle Ages in pursuit of natural and negative theology.

Van Til explores medieval theology and the concept of the "analogy of being" that underlies the thought of Greek philosophy and Thomas Aquinas. Once again, this contrasts with the biblical notion of the Creator-creature distinction.

Van Til continues discussing the widespread embrace of Karl Barth and his theology built on the foundation of Immanual Kant.

Van Til paints with a broader brush in this lecture, moving from Greek philosophy, to medieval, to modern. Throughout, he argues that man's autonomy and brute rationality have been unable to account for truth or certainty in any coherent way.

Van Til applies three points of Kantian philosophy to Post-Kantian thought, grounding them in Genesis 3. These include (1) the principle of autonomy, (2) the pure contingency of the world, and (3) man's rational capacity. These points are addressed fully only in Christ.
