what is a liberal

[Yeshua1]

I still use Barclay for my SS lessons, but, BUT, only in respect to history, customs of the period, etc. I find him excellent in this regard, but stay away from his passage commentary.
Pity, as the man had a brilliant way of saying whatever he was discussing, but was so ridiculously liberal in his dissecting of the spiritual aspects of the Word.:tear:

that was best seen in his commentary on Gospel of John, as he tried every way possible to honor and revere jesus, but stopped short of calling Him "God incarnate", as he was the love of God became flesh, the Word of Love etc!
