Thanks for the interesting info!

Yeah don't you edit undergrad papers? I guess I should have made some edits
instead of just copying and pasting. Oh well!

I wish. It's Chris Tomlin supposedly but B-Ray is omnipresent so it might be
him

I asked myself that immediately after I wrote it. I would say "no" to your
question. I should have written that Jesus rebuilds *us* when things fall
apart. I think he's in the business of human restoration but I don't think
he intends to rebuild some of the things we destroy. That is, he lets things
fall apart for a reason sometimes.

Good question

Thanks for your thoughts Luke! I like your perspective on generational
differences. I'll have to take that into consideration when I think about
this stuff. I've heard lots of good things about Life Together but haven't
picked it up yet. I'll have to do that soon

You can totally do this every day. It's so short! Let me know how it's going
in a couple weeks. I'm giving it a shot right now too

Re: Tis The Season

To be honest I'm not really following you're argument. However, I did follow
a little but of what you said so I'll respond to what I did understand.

When we create a hierarchy out of Scripture (John 14, Matt 24 and 25 are the
best, Paul is the worst) we run into a huge logical problem. More
importantly, a Bible that only has a couple of books that are worth living
by isn't much of a Bible at all. In my opinion, you either accept the whole
thing or throw the whole thing out. The process by which those books were
chosen for the canon of Scripture was a good process and I trust the Holy
Spirit's involvement in that process.

The Apostle Paul is championed as one of the great founders of our faith. He
falls terribly short of Jesus but he's pretty foundational nonetheless.
Without his books, we don't have a ton in the say of theology. The theology
of Jesus that is recorded in the Gospels is excellent but the authors
clearly didn't write everything He believed down. So, Paul's theology is
necessary to understanding Truth.

Feel free to continue this conversation but I think you need to spend some
time read the Bible as a whole. Are in involved in a local church body? Do
you have a mentor or someone you can kick this stuff around with?

Re: Tis The Season

OK. I have a few questions for you in that case,

1. Where does Paul say we do not have to follow the commandments?
2. Do you disregard half the NT because Paul, the alleged Antichrist, wrote
it?
3. Will you explain how John 14 is the center of the universe? I agree that
it is important but I'm not following the whole universe thing.
4. Where is this youtube video? I'd like to watch it

Re: Tis The Season

ndhoag — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 13:13:19 -0000

Of your 4 points I agree with the first three. Paul is the first Antichrist?
Hardly. Would you mind unpacking that statement for me?

Re: ...so that...

ndhoag — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 22:44:55 -0000

In my opinion, that was one of many initial and very particular laws that
God required to teach discipline and loyalty to His people. More
importantly, that law and all the other laws that are weird to us are a
small part of a bigger picture that usually amounts to our love for God
because of His providence.
Not a very thorough or scholarly answer I know but it's a start

Re: Church and Movies. Same Rating System.

ndhoag — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 23:04:47 -0000

I think me concern is how we perceive the entertainment-esque things that
churches do. We have a tendency to judge the quality of the church or the
likelihood that we will return by the extent to which they have managed to
entertain us. I don't think communicators need to change so much as the
parishioners need to. We can't use the same rating system for churches as we
do movies.

Also, the biblical Nathan is a far better role model than I :)

We missed seeing you too! We'll be back in April for another wedding. I'll
try to give you some more notice and we'll see if we can meet up.
