Subject: Scriptural evidence? |
Bible Note: Doc: If anyone here has been in the aforementioned denomination since before 1957, then they've been in it longer than I have. I myself must honestly say that after 47 years' experience in this church, I have seen no greater hunger for obedience and holiness to the Lord than I've seen in many other evangelical churches. I would have to agree with you that "Interest in careful exposition of scripture [is] almost non-existent." In general, in this denomination the absence of interest in expository preaching and teaching characterizes both pastors and laypeople. When I taught the adult Sunday School class, I found that 99 percent of the people did not know and did not WANT to know any Bible doctrine. I don't mean to offend anyone, but these are my honest observations. Grace to you, Kalos |
