“Another way of thinking of this, a way suggested to us in the Scriptures, though not as common, is to think of God the Speaker, God the Spoken, and God the Interpretation” (Mere Fundamentalism, p. 19).
The Problematic Guest
Our Older Brother Always
“The life of Jesus on earth was not an instance of God temporarily slumming on earth. No, when Christ took on human nature, He did so permanently. And the resurrection was the seal on that permanence” (Mere Fundamentalism, p. 18).
To, From and In
“If a homely illustration may be permitted, the Father is where we need to go, the Son is the way we take to get there, and the Holy Spirit is what enables us to travel. The Father is the city we are driving to, the Son is the road, and the Spirit is the car. …
Lig Duncan, Woke Forewords, and the Dikai-Word Group
Introduction: Let’s begin by juxtaposing a few things, shall we?
