Subject: What does "Edens Dawn Light Mean?" |
Bible Note: Brother Hank, Couldn't agree with you more on the "Message". If you look at some of the comparisons done between actual translations and the message your left wondering who's message it is??? It certainly is not the message of God! Peterson's so called motivation for even doing the message was because he believed the congregation had become "bored with the Biblical text" so he set out to make it interesting to them. Once again mankind finds himself better equipped and capable of doing a better job then God? Go figure! What concerns me at this point is so many are buying into this nonsense. Even the publisher of the message (NavPress) "advertised it as a "translation from the original languages" that "accurately communicates the original Hebrew and Greek" and brings out "the subtleties and nuances of the Hebrew and Greek languages," This couldn't be farther from the truth! The scary part is watching the church buy into and push it. It just goes to show how so many of the so called Christian churches today fail to even know what the actual message is! This is another good example of how the church is so willing to compromise. Instead of speaking out against evil we passively sit by and concern ourselves with being politicaly correct and buy into the notion it is unchristian like to confront evil when in fact we should be confronting it in all it's manifestations as it continues to seek and harm us and our beloved brothers and sisters in Christ. The more I see the better I understand just how narrow the gate that few will find and enter in! Matthew 7:13-14 (NASB) 7:13 "Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 7:14 "For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
