Having written some articles previously on the issue of interpreting the Bible and handling the Bible correctly in my articles Interpretation Based on Fantasy and Those who call themselves Christians... I found a very interesting Fresh Word by John Piper called Minimizing the Bible?
He starts by saying:
"I have been pondering a possible relationship between the minimizing of the Bible in so-called seeker-driven churches and in some of the radical forms of contextualization that have emerged in missions. Perhaps there isn’t any connection. But I wonder. The common denominator that I am pondering is the loss of confidence that declaring what the Bible says in the power of the Holy Spirit can create and sustain the church of Christ."
Just thinking...
