Subject: Christian Life: Founded on Doctrine |
Bible Note: Good observations, Doc, which serve as the inspiration for two little vignettes from me on doctrine, one taken from an incident at another communion and the other from my own. During a trip to Texas last summer my wife and I attended a church of which a widely known preacher is pastor. In skimming through one of their church bulletins I came across a notice to the effect that they stressed praise, not doctrine. And in my own communion some months ago a couple of "progressive" church ladies wanted to know from the pastor why we couldn't just worship God and leave off much of this "doctrine business." ........ These dreadful attempts to dumb down the gospel of Christ rather reminds me of something my daughter said when she was a little girl. She came to me one day and said, "Daddy, will you please make Mommy cook me a banana pudding and leave out the bananas?" --Hank |
