In the interests of full disclosure I do tend to side more with Professor Frame on this issue than with Dr. Clark. I think that Clark makes some good points in his book though I question or disagree with a lot of his conclusions. That said, it does need to be emphasized that "Reformed" means more than just believing in the five points of Calvinism but involves a worldview and practice of how we "do church" that goes deeper. Anyway, I'm sure you'll see more on this from both men and in the blogosphere.

A layman such as I is overwhelmed by the level of detail in these arguments. I refer to this sort of thing as academics throwing stink bombs at each other over the transoms. I really wish these academics could keep these arguments within academia. I think they only serve to confuse the rest of us and in this case make the Reformed community look like a bunch of squabblers to others. I enjoy J. Frame's work, especially "Salvation Belongs to the Lord," but this stuff is not helpful. I haven't read any of Dr. Clark's works but it would appear that a good part of his book is intended as an attack on Frame's work. Corrosive petifoggery that should be kept behind closed doors.
