1 | Are Reason and Obedience opposites? | Bible general Archive 1 | Earnest | 82281 | ||
Emmaus, Thanks for the article. That was very interesting! I fully agree that religious organization is necessary, BUT dangerous ...as A.W.Tozer would say. The article likens Peter to be the impulsive but bungling disciple (which he was), but John to be more reserved and contemplative...(again true). Was it that John was a great academic Biblical student of letters? Or was it rather that his heart was closely knit to our Lord's which allowed him to "HEAR" what others could not? I would think the word "contemplative" best describes the latter, given the profile of John that we get from the scriptures. Very interesting article. I have just seen too many Bible scholars who don't walk in the Spirit (all "letter" and no "Life"),and yet they are upset with those who do. |

Ernest, Some people in his own camp found Tozer "dangerous" I think, but I have found him very interesting. Your assessment of contemplative is correct. Peter is something of a bungler, but filled with faith, just a different kind; one slower to learn than John's, but wise for one to whom Jesus gave such great authority. We all have differing gifts from God. Emmaus |
