I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed your first podcast on Vision for the People which was called "Hide In Plain Sight". I thought it would be a shame not to have a link to it here, so... visionforthepeople.podomatic.com/ I thought your podcast was very insightful. I was left wondering about some of your references but, hey, I guess that's what a message board like this is for, so I thought I would open it up for discussion by asking you and others about your comment that, "There is more to this thing than whether or not the bible is accurate or not. Who cares?" This was toward the end of your podcast but I thought it would be a jumping off place for a lively discussion. |

Who cares?" This was toward the end of your podcast but I thought it would be a jumping off place for a lively discussion. Thank you for coming to the boards. I have been praying that it would expand and be something that we could all us to get a better understanding of one another and get some great ideas and viewpoints of what lies ahead. Lately as Derek also knows, there has been a strong hardline coming from Atheists, Agnostics, and Luciferians alike that the Bible is full of contradictions. In the middle of it all I thought to say, this because more to this than the accuracy argument. God's glory and grace extends beyond whether or not the Bible is accurate. I once made the same argument and the truth is simple...it IS accuarate. But why debate over it any longer? I won't because there is far more to what we have to do as Men of Faith and Servants of God. We have to go out there with our armors on and ready for combat. The Bible is our shield, so why worry about something like accuracy? That is a detail presented by Satan. God is not the author of confusion, but Satan is the inventor of lies. When we worry about relevancy and get ourselves involved in squabbles over whether or not a sentence makes sense, an insect has six or four legs, or is there scientific proof of giants, man being born of clay, or a flood, then we allow ourselves to face the enemy on his own turf. Confusion. We have to approach this fight with Faith and the suspension of disbelief. Without that one significant power, we are helpless. We have seen a growth of occult based Christian ministries, open minded "Jesus is JUST one way", and others. Far be it from me to judge a man or his beliefs, but I know tht I cannot accept that into my spirit, so we have to be careful of what we allow ourselves to acknowledge. I say "No more!" to philosophical debates on whether or not the Book of my Faith is accurate or not, and "Let's do this!" in building God's kingdom one soul at a time, one brick at a time, and one ear at a time. So all of this "the Bible is inaccurate" and other garbage is over with. The Bible is accurate because God said it is and this is our main weapon of spiritual defense. Time to stop questioning it and time to stop allowing that serpent to cause us to doubt. I've found that the best way to let people know what this movement is about is by giving OUR hardline, "We don't care about any opinions on the accuracy of the Bible, we only care about what it has done for the multitudes who visit its words with a heart full of love and a mustard seed of Faith." If I didn't answer your question man, just let me know.  Rev. Clarence E. ware II Also, I have a blog set up if you're interested. I'm new to Blogging, so I just thought I'd post it as well. Thanks again and I hope yo stay around. knightsof-god.blogspot.com/ |
