123. William Dennison on Karl Marx


Listen Later

In this episode, we interview Dr. William Dennison about his book Karl Marx. What does Marx actually argue as his system of thought? Bill takes us through Marx’s thought, in its context – and how he views the rise of man, history and eschatology. Bill then shows us how the Fourfold State of Humanity as articulated in the Westminster Confession of Faith is a way to critique Marx from the Christian Worldview.
