109 | Should abortion be permitted when... | Prov 3:13 | kalos | 104756 | ||
'Christian's values, attitudes, and beliefs are to be based on and shaped by the truths taught in the Bible. One can call it a biblical worldview. Developing a biblical worldview requires three essential elements: knowing what the Bible says (observation), knowing what the Bible means (interpretation) and knowing how to apply biblical principles in today's world (application). Each of these elements requires diligence on our part as well as the illuminating ministry of the Holy Spirit (2 Tim. 2:15; John 16:13)' (www.solagroup.org). 1. Abortion should be permitted when the life of the mother is threatened. Did you agree or disagree? See the following passages: Ex. 20:13; Psa. 127:3; 139:13-16; Prov. 6:16-19; 24:11-12; Jer. 1:5; Luke 1:15, 39-44. |

116 | "women keep silent in the churches" | 1 Cor 14:34 | kalos | 58819 | ||
"women keep silent in the churches" 1 Cor 14:34,35 'The principle of women not speaking in church services is universal; this applies to all the churches, not just locally, geographically, or culturally. The context in this verse concerns prophecy, but includes the general theme of the chapter, i.e., tongues. Rather than leading, they are to be submissive as God's Word makes clear. 'It is not coincidental that many modern churches that have tongues-speaking and claim gifts of healings and miracles also permit women to lead worship, preach, and teach. Women may be gifted teachers, but they are not permitted by God "to speak" in churches. In fact, for them to do so is "shameful," meaning "disgraceful." Apparently, certain women were out of order in disruptively asking questions publicly in the chaotic services.' (Source of quote available upon emailed request.) It should come as no surprise that the same individual(s) who reject(s) Biblical teaching on church discipline also reject(s) Biblical teaching on church order. |

117 | What is "Inspiration"? -- correction | 2 Tim 3:16 | kalos | 58659 | ||
What is Meant by "Inspiration"? -- correction. Charles C. Ryrie (Th.D., Ph.D.) writes: "A Definition "My own definition of biblical inspiration is that it is God's superintendence of the human authors so that, using their own individual personalities, they composed and recorded without error His revelation to man in the words of the original autographs. "Several features of the definition are worth emphasizing: "(1) God superintended but did not dictate the material. "(2) He used human authors and their own individual styles. "(3) Nevertheless, the product was, in its original manuscripts, without error" (Ryrie Study Bible). |

119 | 1 Cor 7:12 not a denial of inspiration | 1 Cor 7:12 | kalos | 58654 | ||
In 1 Cor 7:12, do Paul's words have the same authority as the words of Christ Himself? They sure do! Moreover, "personal attack[s] on the authority of the Bible or on other users of this forum" will NOT be tolerated. The contrast is not between inspired teaching and uninspired teaching. 1 Corinthians 7:1-12. Someone writes: "Paul does have the grace to say that this is not from the Lord, but his own personal opinions." No, no, no, no! A thousand times no. Paul neither says nor implies that these are his own personal opinions. "(1 Cor 7:12) In vv. 1-12 the contrast is not between inspired teaching and uninspired teaching, as some have supposed. In vv. 10-11 Paul is repeating in substance something already taught by the Lord; but in v. 12 he is dealing with a situation not covered by our Lord's teaching. Instead of disclaiming inspiration for what he writes in v. 12, the apostle is actually claiming for his own words here the same authority as for the words of Christ Himself" (note at 1 Cor 7:12, New Scofield Reference Bible, Oxford, 1967). Please note: in 1 Cor 7:12 "*I...say.* Not a denial of inspiration or an indication that Paul is giving human opinion, but simply a way of saying that Jesus had not spoken on this and God had not previously given revelation on the matter, as Paul was then writing" (p. 1738, MacArthur Study Bible, Word, 1997) |

120 | Are Christian apologetics unbiblical? | 1 Pet 3:15 | kalos | 57722 | ||
If we shouldn't use arguments[footnote 1] to promote the Gospel--because it's leaning on human wisdom and not God--then what are we to say? I have been challenged a number of times recently on the use of intellectual arguments and rational persuasion in the defense of the gospel. In other words, the whole idea of Christian apologetics is called into question as being unbiblical. For example, one reader said: "don't resort to...arguments to evade the clear statements of truth in the Bible,...be guided by Bible truth and put our trust in it first and foremost." (On the surface, this sounds OK. However, if you read this quote in the context of the post in which it is written, you will see there is more to it than meets the eye.) Another wrote: "I want to see Scripture not no (sic) mumbo jumbo from Strong['s] or any other different references. I want Scripture." Another asked: "Is this article inspired by revelation, or, the Spirit of the living God, or, is it man's wisdom?" The implication by these readers seems to be: you must choose between the use of intellectual arguments and rational persuasion or Bible verses alone. It's either/or. The assumption here is that the two are mutually exclusive options. If we shouldn't use arguments[footnote 1] to promote the Gospel--because it's leaning on human wisdom and not God--then what are we to say? How would you answer this question? Please tell us why you answer as you do. Whatever your reasoning behind your answer, tell us what it is. ------------- [Footnote 1] When I use the word "argument" here, I do not mean it in the sense of "quarrel" or "disagreement." I mean it in the following sense: "argument -- 2 a : a reason given in proof or rebuttal b : discourse intended to persuade 3 b : a coherent series of statements leading from a premise to a conclusion" (www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary). |
