Featuring nine sermons preached at Princeton Theological Seminary's chapel, B. B. Warfield's The Saviour of the WorldThe Saviour of the WorldThe Saviour of the World presents conversational sermons that allow all readers to understand the deeper connections between key biblical texts and Reformed theology.
Warfield's sermons focus on several popular and doctrinally significant passages including Luke 15:11–32 (THE PRODIGAL SON); Acts 4:12 John 1:29; John 3:16; 2 Cor. 5:14–15, 18–19, 21; Heb. 2:9; 2 Tim. 2:8; John 6:38–39; Phil. 2:5–8.
Benjamin Breckinridge Warfield was professor of theology at Princeton Seminary from 1887 to 1921. Some conservative Presbyterians consider him to be the last of the great Princeton theologians before the split in 1929 that formed Westminster Seminary and the Orthodox Presbyterian Church.
During his tenure, his primary thrust (and that of the seminary) was an authoritative view of the Bible. This view was held in contrast to the emotionalism of the revival movements, the rationalism of higher criticism, and the heterodox teachings of various New religious movements that were emerging. The seminary held fast to the Reformed confessional tradition -- that is, it faithfully followed the Westminster Confession of Faith.
Warfield was a thoroughgoing evidentialist and the most prominent exponent of the Old Princeton school.
