Endnotes

1. To this day, I prize many of the Banner of Truth titles and appreciate greatly so much of their work.

2. Benjamin Breckinridge Warfield, Counterfeit Miracles (New York: C. Sribner’s, 1918); Robert G. Gromacki, The Modern Tongues Movement (rev. ed.; Nutley, NJ: Presbyterian & Reformed, 1972).

3. Of course, I failed to realize the obvious, namely, that there was so much smiting taking place in the Old Testament because of Israel’s disobedience, not because God was blessing His people with sickness. As for Job, the theology of that book is obviously much more complex; I treat it in brief in Michael L. Brown, Israel’s Divine Healer (Studies in Old Testament Biblical Theology; Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1995), 165-181. I’m presently working on a commentary on Job that will focus on issues of theodicy and theology, due out in about three years time.

4. See immediately above, n. 3.

5. For some edifying, God-glorifying accounts, see below, Chapter Nine.
