Good enough. I also like to know how you think of so called traditional interpretation. Are they all invalid? How much does one need to know God’s word? Is every child or childlike adult able to figure out without sophisticated expertises with the illumination of the Holy Spirit? I like simplistic and to the point interpretation without making things too ivory tower like. Why have we have the “wrong” understandings in the past…? I am looking forward to reading your entries. Blessings!

Thanks for the inquiry. I think I’ll write another blog entry (or several) and go through each point and give my perspective on it.

Hi I’d love to know all your perspectives on the things you listed. It seems I don’t know the better perspectives on these. Could you send me if you can?

Dude, I grew up getting taught most of the stuff on your list. Richard, I’ve been telling you that you need to at least visit a Church of Christ or an Independent Christian Church. We’re not ALL hardcore pelagians. My friend Jeff Walling has been pastoring the Providence Rd Church of Christ there in Matthews for over ten years and doing an outstanding job. Like you he has a terrific sense of humor. The two of you should at least meet and have coffee or something. See their home page: http://prcoc.org/Default.asp?page=185 or Jeff’s page: http://prcoc.org/Walling.htm –Charlie

Thanks Sean! It’s comforting to know that there are others out there who agree and care about such things. But I’m afraid we’re a minority.

Wow…. I loved it. I think almost everyone of those things has bugged the “heck” out of me!

Thanks for thinking alike.

I would also like to add that the pastor need not be constrained by years of traditional acceptance of these sorts of things and expected to toe the same line if he wants to keep his paycheck!

And the Circle of Dust thing.

We need to get together and talk seriously about staring a church. How about it?

I would like to add that a pastor needs to appreciate Circle of Dust.

Also, don’t forget that a pastor should know enough not to tell people to “loose their donkeys for Jesus.” Whatever the heck that means.
