Future Prospects for Reformed Theology

Whatever reform might mean and what could possibly be intended by the moniker ‘Reformed’, then, must be thought amidst a distinctly Christian and overtly theological portrayal of the theological act, indeed, of the theologian as a person. While we might construe reform in many terms—ranging from the register of the market to the evolutionary adjustments of the biological world and many other idioma beside them—a claim about ‘Reformed theology’ offers not first and foremost a sociological or historical attestation but one of a distinctly theological calibre. Amidst any other significant elements of Reformed identity, this notion that Reformed theology is that being reformed by the Word of God remains a central thread. And understanding its meaning demands sketching a metaphysics within which the theologian might be plotted vis-à-vis that God who issues forth his own Word.
