Answer, try this: read the NT, incline your heart to the HOLY SPIRIT - and don't have expectations of me to do your homework; research G.Fee if your relly interested. | ||||||

Dear Flying, We are a study Bible forum (SBF), sponsored by the Lockman Foundation. Among other things, they are responsible for the NASB translation of the Bible. The keyword here is Bible. While we may frequently quote scholars, pastors, and teachers, we should be able to summarize their assertions along with the proper Biblical annotations. Our ultimate authority is Scripture itself. (Please read again the Terms of Use that you agreed to when you created your SBF profile.) I do appreciate Gordon Fee. In particular, the book he co-authored with Douglas Stuart, "How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth." I originally read it, along with several other books, in a seminary class I took on Biblical Hermeneutics. This book I reference regularly; recommend routinely; and render, as a gift, repeatedly. Now, I would certainly attend to much of Fee's instruction as an exegete. However, when he shifts to teaching on something like ecclesiology, I would necessarily keep in mind that Gordon Fee was ordained by the Assemblies of God (AOG). So far as I know, he continues to remain in good standing with the AOG. Thus, I would expect him to be consistent in perspectives like Egalitarianism, Continuationism, Single-Elder Congregationalism, etc. Consistency is a good thing, and something we should expect from any teacher. However, we need to take into account the presuppositions of those to whom we give heed. Therefore, please do not commend us to doing homework, until you have done your own homework. Many of us are regularly reading a wide variety of works, by theologians and teachers both living and dead. We want to hear about various perspectives, but insofar as the Word itself is concerned. Unsubstantiated, broad generalities, do not help us in the study of the Bible. Thank you for complying with the explicit wishes of our gracious host. Such compliance certainly reflects a heart inclined rightly to the Holy Spirit. In Him, Doc |

Hi people, thank you for all that insight; but lets not call anyone 'teacher', Jesus is the Teacher; lets not call anyone 'Father' for God is your Father - does any of this jive? | ||||||

Hello Flying V, Where did anyone in this thread call anyone "teacher" or "Father"? Your response doesn't seem to jive! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
