"I was extremely blessed to give the sermon at @ecdallastx my home congregation a few weeks ago. Jacobs wrestling match with God in Genesis [--] is one of my favorite texts in all Scripture. Take a listen if youd like. Blessings https://youtu.be/zl4IL3pXqmksi=UGFBruc211fPsO2O https://youtu.be/zl4IL3pXqmksi=UGFBruc211fPsO2O"

"@economic_eth @smashbaals @DennisPrager The Bible interpreted non-messianically has no unifying principle and no life in it. Its sad but also inevitable. When Jesus is rejected the glory of the LORD departs from our reading of Scripture"

"Im very pro-Septuagint especially since some of its peculiar readings are important to the New Testament authors (above all perhaps in Hebrews). On the other hand I think its clear by comparison with the DSS MT & general contextual reading that sometimes the LXX translators were functioning almost as coauthors redactors and interpreters. So Im loathe to abandon the inspiration of the original Hebrew texts inasmuch as they can be reconstructed"

"@UntoldFortune @economic_eth What is the evidence of this though The LXX of Proverbs demonstrates quite a bit of original composition for which we have no Hebrew textual attestation. And its filled with Hellenistic reidiomization"

"@covapologetics @redeemed_zoomer @wagraham I think ultimately its fine for us Protestants to say God superintended the discernment of the Canon through His Spirit and we submit to the conclusions of the Church"

"@covapologetics @redeemed_zoomer @wagraham In general I dont think we need to be shy about asserting the Church has true authority & we should defer to her consensus *unless* utterly compelled otherwise by Scripture. So I have no problem saying the Church authoritatively discerned the Canon & wrote the early Creeds"

"@Contradiction I think technically polygyny (unlike polyandry) is ontologically possible but it is an aberration"

"@Contradiction Im saying Israel committed an aberration against God which resulted in a metaphorical polygynous arrangement. Its an unstable temporary condition caused by human sin. Not exactly a shimmering endorsement"

"@Contradiction A mixed multitude goes out of Egypt if thats what youre referring to. I think polygyny is an abnormal arrangement which is sometimes tolerated but always because of human fallenness. My point is God does not leave His relationship with Israel shattered into pieces"

"@economic_eth Yes it was a formative book for me too. I think God literally sent out monks into the deserts to break down demonic strongholds there. The Bible strongly associates demons with wilderness waste & graveyards (Lev 16:10; Matt 4:1 8:28 12:43; cf. Isa 12:31 Rev 18:2)"

"Skeptics sometimes paint Jesus as radically reinterpreting the Old Testament (OT). This is simply untrue. Jesus interpretation emerges organically from the OT itself. THREAD"
