Featured Are there any Bible teachers you fully agree with.

What about a dictionary? What about an elementary education where you learned to read? What about a book binder? How did you find out your name in Hebrew is David Ben Abraham? Did the Holy Spirit tell you? Did you become a Christian without a preacher, a man? You are much more dependent on men than you even know.

But I have been reading your comments and know you are trying to lighten things up by being funny. We all need that sometimes. Thanks for it. You have made me chuckle more than once.

 

If I must, then my teachers were always women and sin. They have always been my greatest influences. And Jesus was always there. There is nothing complicated with me. And sin is a splendid teacher from which to learn.

 

I had responded this post and apparently it was deleted.

 

Agree, rather harsh though.

Rob, I didn’t have a father for my formative years. My family talked about putting me away, maybe a military school or “Father Bakers” reform school in Buffalo New York. My mother was dealing with my older sister who is cerebral palsy, myself and my younger brother. I was a handful and she was a young widow so the middle child is expected to both help out and be independent… meaning be seen but not heard. Men were often rejected when they tried to parent me… not my father. I was very rebellious, angry and violent. Thank god for my grandmother and mother… they loved me unconditionally(allot there to unpack). By the time my wife entered the picture I was a criminal with a past, and she straightened me out. Lost our first ( still hurts deeply ) then had my only son. Oddly he is a unique man who rejects conformity, loves his family and his position as a man and father. Every serious conversation involved me telling him ‘to answer as a man’ and he does that. He is a blessing.
Now watching these women, Jesus was always there for them, to comfort them, console them, provide morality and not be judgmental. I really learned God from them… not preachers and many times not scripture either. Like going to church was important, praying was important and putting your life in His hands, important.

 

You are delusional

 

none of us are perfect… only God

 

Tell us something new.

 

It is an objective fact that John Calvin was a God-given gift to the Church as has been the case of many others with more narrow orbits.

Calvin is not the least bit philosophical. He is theological. His sermons and commentaries are bibline.(a word I have borrowed from CHS).Did you know that Calvin was known as the theologian of the Holy Spirit?

I certainly disagree with him on the subject of baptism. He was out of character when it came to that subject. The overwhelming majority of his writings are biblically pristine.

 

Ohhh my, Jon that’s a hard revelation to those who worship at the alter of Calvinism!

 

Are you still a Q follower?

 

Just where are you getting stoic philosophy from?

 

I find very little of what Spurgeon wrote that I disagree with, so he probably comes closest. He even helped convince me about Limited Atonement (which I always found … and still find … a weak scriptural case and more of a strong Logical Argument).

 

I haven’t found any disagreement with Dr. Adrian Rogers.

 

I said it and I believe it. I didn't say the gift, but a gift. Stop with your nonsensical "I suspect you know this."
