Andrew Katay and Tony Payne on New Perspective of Paul

Andrew Katay is continuing his series on his thoughts on the New Perspective on Paul. In this posting KPP (Part 2): The problem of sin Tony Payne weighs in on the comments.

They mention a incident in The Briefing where Rob Smith has posted these three articles:

The Briefing Library: Getting in and staying in: The ‘New Perspective’ on justification

The Briefing Library: Wright up close

The Briefing Library: The New Perspective in action

To which Katay posted a response to that got cut from 1000 words to 500. Katay has posted his full response to Rob Smith on his blog over his review on N.T Wrights What St Paul Really Said here: Letter to the Briefing 1999

Andrew Katay on the New Perspective

This looks good. Andrew Katay is going to talk about his take on the New Perspective: Non-defensive defence

for years now, a simple equation has been made about me: Katay = New Perspective, New Perspective = bad; therefore …

The primary rule is to make sure that the significance of what’s said is matched by the seriousness of the attempt to verify – saying someone is lousy at tip footy hardly matters; saying someone is a dangerous heretic matters a great deal, and only gets to be said after serious investigation.

And so, the next few posts will be my effort to set the record straight – but not only that.
