Hello parable, Could we get on with the study of scripture in accord with the purpose of the SBF? Promotion of Boyd's views does not accomplish that. It is one thing to seek an answer to a question, i.e. "open theism" in light of scripture. It is another to simply carry on and foist the views of a proponent ad inifinitum. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Hi BradK, My support for Boyd's work comes from the fact that in his book "Satan and the Problem of Evil", Boyd has resolved to my satisfaction the issues highlighted by the penetrating questions of an adolescent boy to his father who struggles to provide meaningful answers. The problem of evil has long been an intractable conundrum, yet I feel of all the treatments I have read, Boyd's is the most cogent, and he painstakingly builds his arguement from the sole authority of scripture. The bible teaches that we should test everything and keep what is good. If you read that book, I expect you might agree with me that it offers something of value to consider. I note that in rabban's thoughtful responses to the boy's questions, there are some sentiments that parallel what Boyd might say, yet no one objects to statements such as: "No one can change God's overall plan. It is arrogant to expect Him to do so. What they can do is seek adjustments within it." Adjustments? "No prayer can change God's divine plan. It can only cause changes within it." changes? I also note that many of the boy's questions remain conveniently ignored, except in the books I suggested. |
