As iron sharpens iron,
one person sharpens another. (Proverbs 27:17)
In preparation for beginning to teach a 16-week Fall Sunday School series tomorrow, I posted an article on my blog that presents 12 keys to profiting fully from what is written in Scripture:
"12 Keys to Profiting Fully from What Is Written in Scripture"
1. Read the book repeatedly.
Read the series.
The mention of the transformation of our bodies calls to mind the mystery of 1 Corinthians 15:50-52:
“I argue that computer technology has already birthed a new, online techno-religion: a modern-day revival of Gnosticism.” - Public Discourse
“God has always been a revealer of Himself both in His words and in His works. He spoke to Adam in the garden of Eden to reveal Himself and displayed aspects of His character in the works of creation that surrounded Adam.” - Ligonier
“Faith and reason have been divorced, and we Christians sometimes swallow that pill without realizing it. But it doesn’t have to be that way.” - Credo
This article (part 4 in the series) posted at Sharper Iron in 2019.
“Due to the generosity of a friend of the seminary, we now have ten copies of Dr. McFadden’s book that we’re going to give away to the first ten people who send their names and addresses to info@dbts.edu.” - DBTS Blog
Read the rest of the series on the Book of Galatians. This article covers Galatians 6:12-18.
Paul has little new to stay—he’s shot his bolt, so to speak.1 All that remains is to press a few reminders and offer his informed assessment of the Judaizer’s motives.
See what large letters I use as I write to you with my own hand! (Galatians 6:11).
Groothius “means to do his best to explain what these religions actually believe and why, and then to interpret them on the basis of his own Christian convictions.” - Challies
“Do we share some responsibility for the sins committed by those who were part of the same immediate family? What about the same religious family? Or what if the perpetrators in the past shared our same skin color? In short, how should we think of corporate responsibility?” - Kevin DeYoung
