The Narrow Path Ministries

Your post was interesting to me, Steve. I haven't been able to fully understand these assertions: I am not opposed to a group having official leaders, if that becomes necessary, as Paul and Barnabas apparently deemed it to be in some of their young churches. It seems you are referring to the followi...

What?!?! He [the guy from Aaron's church] couldn't put a month and day on it?? Tell him come back when he gets a little more precise! Right. If he had spent adequate time studying the genealogies in the Old Testament as Bishop Ussher had done, he would have come up with the precise date. Ussher sai...

Homer, how did the first elders ever to exist come into being in the expression of the Church with which your local assembly is in fellowship? Did those first elders not arise in the "de facto way"?

How has God demonstrated His love for us if the criteria for the highest possible love, as Jesus said, is to lay down your life for another? I fail to see how this does not apply also to the Father in every system of Christology except Modalism in which it is believed that Christ is the same Person...

And do you see any problem with your own view? It would seem to me that if Jesus is not God but is "diety", then you face the same dilemma I brought up. When I say He's "not God", I am saying that He is not the Father, nor is He part of a compound Trinity. But I say that He is the Only Begotten God...

So Jesus is the one who laid down His life for us. Then it is not possible for God to love us more than Jesus. Or even as much, because God has not died for us. Unless Jesus is God, that is. Are you saying "unless Jesus is God the Father"? Or are you saying "unless Jesus is part of a compound God, ...

Perhaps the chief proof text which preterists use is found in Mark 13:30 (and its parallels in Mt 24:34 and in Lk 21:32) Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place . [ταυτα (these) παντα (all) γενηται (become)] A number of Greek scholars wrote “exegetic...

So, I guess Mellontes can't explain the verses I quoted. At least he didn't do so. But perhaps he believes Jesus already came in the glory of his Father with the angels and has repaid everyone according to his deeds --- in 70 A.D. (Mt 16:27) And perhaps he believes that Christ has already judged the...

So I'd probably tell him that I am not convinced of dispensational theology and hope and pray he would listen to some of the arguments in favor of the amil view. If not, I would not object to not being allowed to teach that way in the class. That's not to say I wouldn't love to teach it (not that I...

For those who are not familiar with the term "Sedevacantism", there is an excellent wikipedia article, short but to the point:
