]]> Comment on Theology Ditty 5: “Does Special Revelation Exist Outside of the Bible?” by Danny http://adubhigg.wordpress.com/2009/02/16/theology-ditty-5-does-special-revelation-exist-outside-of-the-bible/#comment-81 Danny Fri, 20 Feb 2009 20:01:47 +0000 http://adubhigg.wordpress.com/?p=71#comment-81 Great insight. I had been waiting for a new post from you and this one was worth the wait. It is very important with all the "new" interpretations and "new" ways of seeing scripture. For instance Brain McLaren's views on the Kingdom of God being a mostly social movement rather than mostly about redeeming lost souls. Keep the posts coming, Danny Great insight.

]]> Comment on On death and life… by Bart Barber http://adubhigg.wordpress.com/2008/12/15/on-death-and-life/#comment-78 Bart Barber Mon, 22 Dec 2008 20:38:54 +0000 http://adubhigg.wordpress.com/?p=65#comment-78 Ah...but I <strong>did</strong> read. I'm far from having our Lord figured out, nor even myself figured out. I do believe that He is using our involvement in all of this to work something good and glorify Himself. It is one thing to serve as the "agent" of God in seeing a person come to eternal life. It is another thing altogether to serve as the "agent" of God in seeing a person meet his death. God is involved in one as much as the other, I'm sure. It is just a strange and sobering thing to be a part of this other business. And upon meeting up with it, I have found that neither my thoughts nor my emotions are really under my control at all. But we have consecrated ourselves to be obedient to the Lord and useful to Him through this time of struggle for our family. Thank you for lifting us up in prayer in the meantime. Ah…but I did read.
