The Cruciform God: Righteousness and Faith, Part 2
We’re continuing our study of Michael J. Gorman’s Inhabiting the Cruciform God. Now, at this point, I begin to sound a bit antinomian (lawless), because it sounds as though I’m saying you can be sinful and not submit to God’s … Continue reading

An Experiment in Christian Dialogue: God’s Revelation is Limited
The Springville (Alabama) Church of Christ bulletin contains an article copied from Wilson Adams in Biblical Insights, Vol. 6, No. 7, July 2006 arguing – 1 Cor. 2:9-13. It is impossible for you to know the mind of God unless … Continue reading
N. T. Wright’s After You Believe: Love, For Discussion
Regarding love, Wright explains, Left to myself, doing what comes naturally, I would fail. But the point of love is that it doesn’t. That is why love is a virtue. It is a language to be learned, a musical instrument … Continue reading
Sunday Sites: Christian Standard
