ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A project of this scope and size is never an individual endeavour, at least not for the believer. As one most unworthy of being called a servant of God, I wish to acknowledge help received-that mysterious combination of divine and human assistance. First. All glory alone to God, maker of Heaven and Earth, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ for saving me and equipping me to serve His Church. Next. While there no doubt have been many, koinonia in this project have been more direct with the following, individuals, groups and institutions: 1. My Doktorvater, Prof D.F. Tolmie, whom I’ve grown to love and respect, an example of diligent labour, thorough scholarship and reverence for God’s Word. 2. My wife Celeste who helped me to remain focused during this time, for her timeous and delightful “distractions” 3. Bellville Baptist church for their magnanimous accommodation while I finished this project, especially the Saturday morning prayer group, who held me accountable and kept me before the throne of grace by their prayerful support. 4. Br. Chris Mathews and Rev. Dr. Taeheon Song who “saw” this journey ere I set but one foot to traverse it. 5. The Faculty of Theology of UFS for financial assistance PDF created with pdfFactory Pro trial version www.pdffactory.com
