  • Is Truth Really Plural? Postmodernism in Full Flower

    Okay, so, Mohler wants to say, like Franke, that all theological traditions are limited by culture, but then he tries to put forth the theological doctrine of 'verbal inspiration' as not culturally limited? Perhaps Mohler is beginning to fall into the same trap as Postmoderns by putting forth contradictory statements. At least, Franke is consistent in his thinking! Come on, Mohler!!!

    Yes, and even John Roberts who presided, flubbed on his part.

    No, we got rid of spanking because a few people abused it. Not because women are more in control. This is not to say that spanking is wrong. Just that it is looked down upon because a few ruined the practice

    Prophet,

    Punishment is one thing, which would be putting them into solitary for a weak. Torture, in that case, would go beyond the bounds of punishment. So, I do not think that torture is used to exact justice, but punishment can.

    Not to diminish other issues, but torture is a big issue that deserves more attention than it has been given.

  • NYC Church Plans Rare Full Bell Peal for Obama

    Haha, I find it hilarious that any story about Obama will always get negative responses from people on this website.

    Obama could give someone a piece of bread, and someone would probably call him a "Socialist!" for doing so.

  • What is the Missional Church and Why Does it Matter?

    I am shocked; I never thought I would see someone post something about missional theology on here. That is encouraging.

    Who cares? Christian apologetics is just as worthless as the phony messages of these Atheists.

    "Now in my belief I accept all people who wish to come to jesus, in their sin, just as they are, and the lord will convict them with his word and will remove sin from their life as the holy spirit gives them understanding"


    I agree with that belief; I think some Christians want to tell people the truth (whether lovingly or not) so much that they minimize the role of faith in being with people who are "not of the Lord". We have to have faith that it is not our words but the presence of Holy Spirit which will lead people to Christ. In that, I am saying that human words will never lead to the presence of the Holy Spirit (though they may point to it, but that still does not mean they actually experience the HS)

    We must be willing to acknowledge that despite our good intentions someone's "coming to Christ" does not FULLY depend on what we do or say. The Spirit, if we truly believe that God wants everyone to be saved, will surely there to lead people to Christ.

    Doesn't surprise me; Bob Jones did the same thing to Billy Graham.

    Forgivensinner,

    I dont know; sometimes she wants me to take it out of the bin so she can take it out to the street, other times she wants me to take it out to the street.

  • The Bible and Proposition 8

    "It isn't our interpretation which is key...it is His."

    Does God interpret? How can we be sure we know His interpretation?

    Forgivensinner,

    I still dont understand the difference between the two. If I "decide" (interpret) that my wife wants me to take out the trash, does that not mean that I have already "grasped" (understand) the meaning of what she says?

    DP,

    How can I be sure that my "mental representation" is an adequate portrayal of reality? If, for instance, I decide to drive 25 mph (in a 55 zone) am I safe or will I get pulled over for driving to slow? What if I choose to drive 56, how can I be sure that the patrolmen will or will not pull me over? Would that depend on what the patrolmen thought was speeding?

    "The Bible is clear to anyone who wants to read what's written there."

    So interpretation is unnecessary?

    Delightinthelord,

    I speak for no one but myself. Mike can say whatever he wants to. My convictions are my convictions, no one else's. And I do argue for a reason: because I thought you could argue your point more effectively.

    "try and be less critical when someone is arguing your side of the issue. "

    I said nothing on my beliefs concerning the issue. I was merely making the point that I dont think your argument is a good one to make considering Mike's position. That is to say, he wont even consider it because he does not assume the same premise as you do.
