The Same-God Question: Four Views

Last updated on: October 21, 2019 at 6:48 pm By Scot McKnight

Many I bump into don’t care about this issue because for them all other Gods than the Christian God are non-gods, idolatries. Others, however, probe this question with far more interest, asking at times about overlaps and dissimilarities. I’m grateful to Zondervan’s industrious editors for yet one more volume in the Counterpoints series with this new volume: Do Christians, Muslims, and Jews Worship the Same God? The editors are Ronnie P. Campbell and Christopher Gnanakan. The contributors are Wm Andrew... Read more

Cruciformity and Resurrecti-formity? Or…

Last updated on: October 19, 2019 at 10:14 am By Scot McKnight

Michael Gorman forms the discussion well: In the previous chapter we took seriously Paul’s claim in 1 Corinthians 2:2 that he had decided to know nothing except the crucified Messiah, and we saw that for Paul (and for those who consider Paul’s letters Christian Scripture) the cross is both Christophany and theophany, both ecclesiophany and anthrophany. That is, the cross reveals the identity of Christ, of God, of the church, and of true humanity. But what about the resurrection? Did... Read more

In his recent article at RNS, veteran reporter Bob Smietana summarized John MacArthur’s recent conference in which he took aim at the Southern Baptists and at Beth Moore: (RNS) — Evangelical pastor John MacArthur, speaking at a celebration of his 50th year in pulpit ministry this week, weighed in on an ongoing debate in the Southern Baptist Convention over women preachers, claiming the nation’s largest Protestant denomination has lost faith in authority of the Bible. He claimed the SBC had taken... Read more

Two Evangelists’ Farewell to God

Last updated on: October 18, 2019 at 1:24 pm By Scot McKnight

When I was studying the patterns of apostasies (Finding Faith, Losing Faith), I found Ruth Tucker’s book so helpful and this post draws from her book. (paid links) By Ruth Tucker “Suddenly from head to foot, Robert was shaken with what seemed like a magnetic thrill of heavenly delight and floods of glory seemed to pour through him, soul and body.” Hannah wanted the same experience and later during a revival meeting went down to the altar, armed with handkerchiefs,...

What a grand way to kick off this week’s meanderings, with a link to a post about books and hoarding. You’re a book hoarder if… “It’s not hoarding if it’s books.” This is a popular saying among bibliophiles with various versions like the above circulating as memes on social media. I’m not so sure if that’s always true. From comments I read, there are a number of us who are book hoarders. Notice that I include myself here. You know... Read more

Above My Pay Grade

Last updated on: October 17, 2019 at 12:16 pm By Scot McKnight

By Mike Glenn One summer, I worked for a local bottling company. Every day, I would show up and wait for the machine operator to start cranking out two-liter bottles of America’s favorite soft drinks. Bottle after bottle, case after case, truck load after truck load ran onto a circling stainless-steel platform waiting for me to grab them, stuff them in a box, stack the boxes onto a pallet and wave for the fork lift driver to come and take...

Lines and Circles? (RJS)

Last updated on: October 16, 2019 at 8:53 pm By RJS

We all prefer friends who are just like us … personality, age, education, social class, marital status, politics. This is simply human nature it appears – with both good and bad consequences. We tend to self-segregate. Should the church be any different? I read an article published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science (aka PNAS) a while back where the investigators looked at self-segregation as a function of institution size. Both simulation and survey methods were used... Read more
