Re (10) No way to resolve the controversy in the letters whether you are saved by faith or works. Today we tend to think of faith as a mental assent to certain doctrines. However, for the 1st century Jew, faith meant trusting in God to keep his covenantal promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. So fait...

Re: Ehrman and Strauss's books
Re (4) continued from above ...And Jesus seems to have believed it about himself. The language was deeply coded, but the symbolic action was not. He was coming to Zion, doing what YHWH had promised to do. He explained his action with riddles all pointing in the same direction. Recognize this, and yo...

Re: Church of Christ Madness - Vote on the worst doctrine
Worst doctrine -- We are saved by keeping law, including laws of pardon. Leads to either self-righteousness, anxiety. or despair. Before being baptized into the CoC I had been trusting in God's loving-kindness toward me as a baby Christian. Two years indoctrination in the CoC, and I was actually ups...

Re: Judaism and thinking about God
Congratulations, agricola. Sounds special.

Re: Left Years Ago… family still in.

I am surprised that your father objects to musical instruments, but not to the fact that you are attending (what a traditional CoC person would see as) a denomination.
