Sure thing.
 
In the study of Theology, Church History is of great help. Indeed, its value can hardly be expressed.

It is easy for us to think that we have come up with some great new idea, or unparalleled theological insight. However, it is in History that we get to see (from the safety of the sidelines) theological ideas put to trial. Most theological ideas aren't really new. They have been put to trial at some put in history. So, how did that idea stand the rigors of examination?

Paul Maty failed to learn that lesson...to his peril (see here).
 
While it is certainly time to ponder the corona virus and its ways, we are also being called (indeed, more so) to consider the Person of Christ, and His ways with us.

Here, De Moor takes up the subject of the unique Sonship of Jesus Christ.
 
Coming very soon: De Moor's defense of the Doctrine of the Eternal Generation of the Son against the Socinians.
 
Augustine explains that the Father “begot [the Son] timelessly in such a way that the life which the Father gave the Son by begetting him is co-eternal with the life of the Father who gave it . . .” (De trin. XV.47, 432, italics mine).21 Thus, we should not think of the generation of the Son like “water flowing out from a hole in the ground or in the rock, but like light flowing from light” (De trin. IV.27, 172).22 The Son’s “light” is equal in its radiance to “light” of the Father.
