Soli Deo Gloria

Soli Deo GloriaThe great New Testament scholar Geerhardus Vos at Old Princeton Seminary once asked the question, "What is it about Reformed theology that enables that tradition to grasp the fullness of Scripture unlike any other branch of Christendom?" He answered, "Because Reformed theology took hold of the Scriptures in their deepest root idea. . . . This root idea which served as the key to unlock the rich treasuries of the Scriptures was the preeminence of God's glory in the consideration of all that has been created." Vos said that the "all-embracing slogan of the Reformed faith is this: the work of grace in the sinner as a mirror for the glory of God." (Geerhardus Vos, "The Doctrine of the Covenant in Reformed Theology," in Redemptive History and Biblical Interpretation: The Shorter Writings of Geerhardus Vos, [(Phillipsburg, NJ: Presbyterian and Reformed Publishing Co., 1980], pp. 241-242, 248 [emphasis added])

It is this relentless orientation on the glory of God as highlighted in Reformed theology that gives coherence to our work and teaching at Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary. We relish all of the famously expressed "solas" of the Reformation --- Christ Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone, Scripture Alone --- all focusing on the object of these confessions: To God Alone Be the Glory.

We confess, however, that in our human finiteness we "alone" cannot give God His fullest due, nor can we "alone" fulfill our calling to prepare men to proclaim the gospel of grace and divine glory. We need your help as fellow instruments of God's provision to ensure that the uncompromised Reformed Faith with its commitment to the fullness of Scripture continues to infuse Christ's church with the truth. Below are some of the ways you can contribute.
