Bible Note: From a Christian (and believer) standpoint, I completely agree. From a non-believer standpoint, I'd have to disagree. I could always say that the NT writers new the OT prophecies and fabricated a story to fit. NOTE: I don't believe this to be the case but would have a hard time convincing someone that did. While it's ok to study the Bible, I think God would like us to spend at least as much (if not much more) time getting His message to those that need it. Luke, I believe, is a person that needs to know the message. The message isn't trying to prove one interpretation over another, it's that God loves him and wants him. Once he's a believer (if that's the path he chooses) and he then decides to debate the various parts of the Bible, then so be it. That's just my thought. Others will probably disagree and that's ok too. |
