ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This book is a revision of a dissertation, written to meet the requirements of the PhD program at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. I am glad to acknowledge my debt to some of those who have helped me take this project from an idea to a finished this work.

About Dirk Philips, A Sixteenth-Century Dutch Anabaptist: His Doctrine of the Visible Church and Its Influence on His Theological System
The purpose of this book is to shed light on the thought of Dirk Philips, who was a Mennonite leader in the sixteenth century, and to argue that his various doctrines, including his Christology, ecclesiology, soteriology, and anthropology, are interrelated with his view of the visible church. This book explains that Dirk Philips' view of the visible church is much closer to the ecclesiology of Augustine's tradition rather than to the ecclesiology of the Donatists' tradition. |
