Nick Gill commented on the blog post Responding when you disagree with the teacher "Before Abraham was, I AM" is Jesus' conclusion to a series of questions: Jesus: if anyone keeps my word, he will never see death. Jews: Now we know that you have a demon! Abraham died, as did the prophets, yet you say, ‘If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste death.’ Are you greater than our [...]

David P Himes commented on the blog post Colossians: The Instrumental Music Question, Part 1 mark, I'd like to believe you're right about what "the majority of cofC members" feel. But whether it's a majority or not, I cannot say. But there remain a significant, if not large, number to DO find it damnable. I worship with many of them every Sunday, and can give you a list of congregations [...]

Nick Gill commented on the blog post Colossians: The Instrumental Music Question, Part 1 Kona,

It just seems that sometimes when we try to combat law using grace, we end up with a grace that looks a lot like the law we tried to defeat

Yes! That's so true. I think you are spot-on when you say, "Whatever we think 'grace' is, it must be the same thing that the [...]

Nick Gill commented on the blog post Colossians: The Instrumental Music Question, Part 1

Christian worship has no temple, no mountain; Christian worship has no cleanliness laws in the manner of the O.T.

Those who would make 'singing-only worship' a law are seeking to establish precisely the same kind of law that you affirm that Christian worship does not possess.

I see a continuity between the worship that God loves, and [...]

Nick Gill commented on the blog post Colossians: The Instrumental Music Question, Part 1

I firmly reject the supposition that the ardent defenders of ‘singing-only worship’ are motivated, even in part, by serving God at the expense of loving their neighbor—I deny this point because it can’t be done.

kona, don't you see that the priest and the levite felt exactly as you do? They would have passionately denied that they [...]

Nick Gill commented on the blog post Colossians: The Instrumental Music Question, Part 1 Jay, Are you sure the Shammai/Hillel breakdown goes like that? I was under the impression from RVL, et al, that they agreed that the Shema was the first great command, but that their disagreement was on the second. Shammai said Sabbath (ranking love of neighbor seventh, maybe?) while Hillel said love of neighbor was second, [...]

David P Himes commented on the blog post Colossians: The Instrumental Music Question, Part 1 The first century assemblies did not likely include four-part harmony. Does that mean it's unscriptural? Four part harmony nearly caused a split in the Paris, KY church, when some college chorus students began singing parts during a worship service in the 1830's. Many CofC's increasing project words on screens, but do not provide sheet music [...]

Nick Gill commented on the blog post Responding when you disagree with the teacher

People conveniently forget, when Jesus spoke he spoke for God.

John 10:30 "I and the Father are one."

So, according to your understanding, what Jesus means here is, "The Father and the Father are one."

SENSE, LAYMOND, SENSE

only capable being, I suppose God was not capable of talking to men, through Moses, and many others as the bible states. surely Moses could not talk directly to God, and man.

Jay Guin wrote a new blog post: Colossians: The Instrumental Music Question, Part 1 We've covered instrumental music countless times on this blog, and long-time readers may well be tired of the question. But Col 3:16 is next up for the class I'm teaching, and this will be a lesson taught in just for one week -- if possible. So I have to address the question succinctly. Let's see. There [...]

But as to infants and young children, the analysis is different. A few posts ago, I mentioned that it’s not necessarily true that a child is saved. It is possible that the child simply ceases to exist when she dies. Not only does the child not suffer eternal punishment, the child doesn’t receive eternal reward. It’s [...]
