Dr. Rod Rosenbladt died in Christ today after a brief illness.

There was no one else like him. J. I. Packer once told him, “Rod, you not only possess Luther’s theology, you embody the man.”

No one has influenced my course in life more than Rod. He was my first theology teacher. He encouraged me to do my M.A. thesis on B. B. Warfield. He was the one who urged me to go to Westminster Seminary California, and then when I graduated he and Dr. John Warwick Montgomery invited me back to the Simon Greenleaf School of Law (now Trinity Law School) to teach apologetics (my first professorship).

I introduced Rod to Mike Horton, who then invited Rod, Bob Godfrey, and J. I. Packer, to speak at Biola for a conference on the need and possibility of a new Reformation in American evangelicalism. Out of that conference came the initial funding for the White Horse Inn and Modern Reformation magazine.
