Bible Note: I am not worried that you are trying to convert me. I am concerned that you claim that Scripture is reliable, except for this case. Why should I believe in the bodily resurrection of Christ, then? The Jehovah's Witnesses don't. Maybe the gospel accounts of a risen Christ were parables, speaking spiritually about his "spiritual renewal" or something? Do you see how "spiritualizing" passages which are presented as historical realities is a slippery slope? It regards the supernatural explanation as invalid. This is precisely what happened in Europe during the modernist controversy, and now Europe's churches are largely empty. --Joe! |
