What does anybody know about the Cultural Mandate, Genesis 1:27, other scriptures? Is this a Reformed doctrine or an Evangelical doctrine? What is the Dominion Mandate Genesis 1:27,28, other scriptures? Is this a Liberal doctrine? What about the Evangelistic Mandate Mathew 28:18-20, other scriptures? Scriptures and opinions please... | ||||||

Hi, Tamara... Reformed and evangelistic are not mutually exclusive! Oh my, no! These terms are simply used in theology to discuss the explicit commands of God to man. They tend to be mentioned in more educated circles, which is why you generally don't hear them from contemporary evangelical pulpits. One of the best treatments of these mandates that I have heard was by Dr. Gerard Van Groningen. I'll send you a link to his lectures if you'd like. In Him, Doc |

Yeah Doc, thanks for another link. I said Reformed or Evangelical because not all Evangelicals are Reformed! I was reading about these doctrines because of this one professor who is the source of most of those questions from Sunday (notice that most were related?. I did a bit of exegesis on one verse for the Cultural Mandate and was able to show that the verse did not support it. Which is why he countered with the supposed Mandate to use Wisdom to evangelize, for which he had absolutely no scriptures at first. But later tried to give examples of Jesus using wisdom to counter the Pharisees and the Beatitudes as the wisdom of Jesus doing evangelism to save (?), and the wisdom of the parables. saying it all leads people to God because it causes them to think and it apealed to their ability to intellectualy grasp the gospel in order to get saved. | ||||||

Oh Thanks a bunch Doc for the encouragement as you know I am a bit of a regular mensch and would love a very detailed follow up with attending scriputres. Which,Laugh OUT Loud, you may not have time for! But which I seriously am searching for real answers for. I have to go back to some of your links and remember to write down the specific things I am supposed to be looking for in the myriad of subjects that are there in their search engines. Today was the last day of class for the Introduction to Theology course and he said and I quote (I was careful to ask him respectfuly three times, one for each part, carefuly writing it down),"knowledge and wisdom are the basis for our faith and the basis for our salvation, the knowledge of Christ's atonement brings the wisdom that has to be believed in order to be saved, and the Law gives us knowledge and the wisdom of faith". He gave Proverbs 22:17-19 and Galatians 3:22-24. Before answering he told me to present an argument if I liked, I said I have argued this enough outside of class, I want to learn from you exactly what you are trying to teach us here. Agape, Tamara | ||||||

Hi, Tamara... That causal connection sounds as though this fellow doesn't hold to the orthodox Christian doctrines of the ordo salutis. I've a large number of posts on the topic, with attending Scripture. In Him, Doc |
