Recording Bible Classes to allow outsiders to listen anonymously

2010-02-07T13:49:00.000-05:00

In January 2009, Jeff Himmel and I recorded three Bible classes at Spring Warrior. The subject studied was 1 Thessalonians. For our purposes, the subject recorded was irrelevant. We simply wanted to share with people outside the church the ability to hear how we conduct our classes and study God�s word. We felt that this would give the listeners the ability to hear what we are about without the pressures associated with attending �cold.�

The classes used a workbooks authored by Robert Harkrider.

Powerpoint Agenda for 5th Sunday Sing Night - Prayer (theme)

2010-01-31T23:48:00.000-05:00

Spring Warrior hosts a sing night on each 5th Sunday of a month. On January 31, 2010, the sign night had a theme - prayer.

Dan Chaney organized a list of songs to sing, Scriptures to read, and occasions for prayer during the service, and then arranged for different men to lead different songs, Scripture readings, and prayers.Prayer (SpringWarrior)

Dan also prepared a Powerpoint agenda so the men would know when it was their turn to participate, and also allow the congregation to know which song to sing, verse to read, or when a prayer would be lead. The Powerpoint slides are attached.

You can also download the slides from Google Docs.

Does God let ministers go up in flames? Better Bibles Blog

2010-01-31T13:38:00.002-05:00

One of my favorite blogs is the Better Bibles Blog at www.betterbibles.com. Today's article was fortuitously timely considering the fact that Spring Warrior is currently studying Hebrews. The article is entitled: "Does God let ministers go up in flames?," and it is about the passage is Hebrews 1:7, which is translated variously as follows:

KJV: Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
RSV: Who makes his angels winds, and his servants flames of fire.
NIV: He makes his angels winds, his servants flames of fire.
TEV: God makes his angels winds, and his servants flames of fire.
NLT: messengers swift as the wind, and servants made of flaming fire.
CEV: I change my angels into wind and my servants into flaming fire.
��-
NJB: appointing the winds his messengers and flames of fire his servants.

NKJV/NLT Parallel Bible Request

2009-11-20T09:53:00.000-05:00

My two favorite Bible translations are the NKJV and the NLT.

My dream Bible, what I long for, would be a parallel Bible that would present the NKJV in verse-by-verse dual-column format on one page and the NLT in a single-column paragraph format on the opposite page. Both in extra large print.

I find that the differences in translation philosophy and presentation of the text beneficial to a better understanding of the underlining meaning of the text.

Thomas Nelson and Tyndale House, can you help us out with this?

Even if you don't care for the NLTse, you have to view the Mosaic Bible online at http://www.holybiblemosaic.com/trymosaiconline/.

The pages are reproduced online in full color and they are beautiful.

The other neat thing is that the pages of the book online flip like a regular page. Simply drag your cursor to flip a page.

I once only read from "literal" Bibles, but I am now a big fan of the NLTse, the NLT Study Bible, and I can't wait to read the new devotional Mosaic Bible. For more info:

Is the ESV Study Bible Calvinistic?

2009-09-18T14:47:00.003-05:00

I have read reviews by some who criticize the ESV Study Bible as being Calvinistic. It may be, but consider the following notes from 1 Timothy 2:4, where Paul tells Timothy that God "desires all men to be saved." The notes appear even-handed to me and I am not a Calvinist.

Evangelistic prayer for all people is rooted in the fact that God desires all people to be saved. It appears that Paul is countering an exclusivist tendency in the false teachers or at least their downplaying of the importance of evangelizing the Gentiles (along with their emphasis on the Jewish law). This statement figures prominently in theological disagreements over the extent of the atonement. It cannot be read as suggesting that everyone will be saved (universalism) because the rest of the letter makes it clear that some will not be saved (4:1; 5:24; 6:10; cf. Matt. 25:30, 41, 46; Rev. 14:9�11). Does that mean God desires something (all people being saved) that he cannot fulfill? Both Arminian and Calvinist theologians respond that God �desires� something more than universal salvation. Arminians hold that God's greater desire is to preserve genuine human freedom (which is necessary for genuine love) and therefore he must allow that some may choose to reject his offer of salvation. Calvinists hold that God's greater desire is to display the full range of his glory (Rom. 9:22�23), which results in election depending upon the freedom of his mercy and not upon human choice (Rom. 9:15�18). However one understands the extent of the atonement, this passage clearly teaches the free and universal offer of the gospel to every single human being; �desires� shows that this offer is a bona fide expression of God's good will. Come to the knowledge of the truth highlights the cognitive aspect of conversion, i.e., individuals must come to understand key truths in order to be converted. �The truth� occurs often in the Pastorals as a synonym for the gospel (cf. 1 Tim. 3:15; 4:3; 2 Tim. 2:15, 18, 25; 3:7, 8; 4:4; Titus 1:1, 14).

Changing my mind on the NLT << The Sundry Times

2009-09-18T14:46:00.001-05:00

The following quote from Changing my mind on the NLT & The Sundry Times captures my feelings about the second edition of the New Living Translation (NLTse):

The NLT is so clear and easy-to-read, yet it is also quite accurate. It's not without its imperfections, but that's the nature of Bible translation. I am finding more and more lately that when I read a passage in a different translation, I find myself wondering how the NLT puts it, and I go and get my NLT and check it out. .... It's getting so the NLT is the first Bible I pick up.

The NLTse is tied for first for me with the New King James Version (NKJV) and the NLT Study Bible is my first study Bible of choice, while the ESV Study Bible is my handy second choice.
