Henk van den Belt, Ph.D. (2006) in theology, Leiden University, is pastor in the Protestant Church in the Netherlands, assistant professor in systematic theology and staff member of the International Reformed Theological Institute at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
This book discusses the concept of the self-convincing authority of Scripture in the historical development of Reformed theology and advocates an emphasis on the autopistia in a postmodern context, because truth and trust are inseparable.
