Geez, Lance, all these different retorts to Judy via
subject lines makes me wonder if the discussion is more about Judy than any
theological issue. Or has Judy
become
the issue for you?

Re: [TruthTalk] Re:Tell ya what I'm gonna do, Judy
Why would I waste God's time reading some
theologian who with all his great learning did not believe the
scriptures to be
inerrant? Obviously he was not led by the
Spirit of God. I understand why you like him though as TFT is one of
his fans and
they study him at Princeton - so his must be the
"expert opinion"- right?.
Barth's theology assumes a certain amount of the tenets of liberal
Christianity,
most notably the assumption that the Bible is not historically and scientifically accurate.
Barth has been called by fundamentalist
Christianity a "neo-Orthodox"
because, while his theology retains most or all of the tenets of
Christianity,
he rejects Biblical inerrancy. His reconciliation of having
a rigorous Christian theology without a supporting text that was
considered to be historically accurate was to separate theological truth
from historical truth. It is arguably for this belief that Barth has been
criticized the most harshly by more conservative
Christians such as
Francis Schaeffer.
And, speaking of what won't 'fly'; just
what of Karl Barth's own writings have you read? (primary source
material)
footnote:Same question of John
Calvin
footnote:Does it matter?
Just because I have used a few of Hunt's
footnoted quotes in an online thread re John Calvin & Geneva
does
not mean that I am a follower of Dave Hunt or
that I interpret scripture according to his writings... so that won't
fly.
I'll engage you on Dave Hunt, utilizing
my conversations with and those works of his that I've read. You
engage me on Karl Barth based upon those works of his that you've
actually read. How's that for fair? Thereafter we'll see whether
either assessment stands.
I am not in any position to judge Barf's
personal life and neither are you Lance. Calvins' was a bit
more public.
And didn't you write the following
"I've met the 'Huntmeister' and, we spoke. He's big
into this 'end times' drivel. . "
Talk about the pot calling the kettle
black, isn't the above a truly
shallow, petulant, and uniformed caricature &
reprehensible?
This man served our Lord faithfully throughout
his life as did John Calvin. To take note of these truly
shallow, petulant, and uniformed caricatures is reprehensible.
What 'spirit' inhabits such an one as this? Take care
Judy"
Footnotes?? Only if the
original thought makes any sense. Barf definitely would
not qualify.
One would not have thought you so easily
impressed, Judy. Ya wants footnotes? May I suggest Karl
Barth? I've met the 'Huntmeister' and, we spoke. He's big
into this 'end times' drivel. .
