The Doctrine of the Word of God - A Theology of Lordship, Volume 4
By John Frame-PCA

A defense of the Reformed confessional position on the word of God and Scripture, starting with God's covenant lordship. The word of God' is a multi-faceted concept. It is, first of all, God's own speech. Since Godis a speaking God, his speaking capacity is a divine attribute, an aspect of his nature.

This capacity is focused in the second person of the Trinity, so that Word is a name of Jesus Christ. "The word," therefore, includes all of his personal communications, which take many forms, such as the direct voice of God, the words of prophets and apostles, and the written Word.

“This fourth volume in John Frame’s Lordship series is the best of them—and that is high praise. Frame thinks through what Scripture is, what authority means, and how to understand inspiration, canon, and a host of other categories intrinsic to any responsible treatment of revelation, especially the revelation provided by holy Scripture. Frame’s style is highly personal, occasionally sliding all the way to an almost stream-of-consciousness set of associations, but his reflections are invariably so fresh (even when he is articulating old truths) and so thought-provoking (not least where one wants to demur or introduce a caveat) that this reader, at least, overlooks the style. This book works hard at developing its theology, the theology of the Word of God, out of Scripture itself—and without descending to vicious circularity. This is an important book, and those who write on this subject in the near future without wrestling with Frame will merely testify to their own narrowness.”
