Round the Sphere Again: Early Church Fathers

Inspiration
Some scholars claim “that the early fathers saw nothing distinctive about the NT writings as compared to writings being produced in their own time period.” Is that true? Did the early church fathers think they were inspired like the apostles? Michael J. Kruger says no, and he quotes from several of them to prove they didn’t (Canon Fodder).

Imputation
Turretinfan has a collection of historical quotes affirming imputation (of one kind or another), including some from early church fathers (Thoughts of Francis Turretin). 

Update: If you want to read the church fathers for yourself, here’s a site with a schedule of readings for you— seven pages a day for seven years. (HT: Kim)
