"Hi Dan, I received your message, about the comment feature not working. I'm just testing it and seems fine. Possibly a browser issue, originally, at your end?"

"Yes, I have run into that also. According to that theology, the Bible has more power than does God or Christ."

"Amen to that! But even the passage you quote, Ellis, is usually disfigured by the same crowd who accept the Inputed interpretation of theology, as applying to the Bible.  So the Word of God turns into Bibliolatry."

"Concerning the commentators who jump onto past tense. Contrast the "...has spoken to us by a son..."(Heb. 1:2) with the concept of entering a sabbath rest by hearing today his voice who speaks from Heaven. If we do not hear his voice…"

Did the Apostle Paul believe Jesus was the Prophet-like-Moses? And does it matter? Post 6 - An aside into Hebrews

An aside into Hebrews It has been some time since I made a post to this blog.  I have had subjects for at least three separate posts swirling inside and it is time to publish again.My intent for this post was to take a look at the non-Pauline epistles in the New Testament (not already touched on in prior posts) before tackling Paul directly in the next.  In the writing my focus has narrowed.  My family has been reading the book of Hebrews together.  As I have pondered the passages we are…See More

Stretching our understanding and experience of the Messiah

The following is a paper I gave at the Oregon gathering this summer which was a joint meeting of the NFF and the Wider Conservative Friends Fellowship.  It is related to the blog I have been working on this year (2011) but has its own content.  May it be of use to you who read it. Stretching our understanding and experience of the Messiah“They asked one another, ‘Were not our hearts burning within us as he talked to us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?’” (Luke 24:32)I begin with this…See More

"Hi Dan, re-reading this, I noticed your point, "...The way we have been taught in these Christian contexts has cut us off from a central theme, expectation and understanding in both the Old and New Testaments." I find this very helpful and…"

Did the Apostle Paul believe Jesus was the Prophet-like-Moses? And does it matter? Post 5 -The Transfiguration

This post is about the Transfiguration passages (see Mathew 17:1-12, Mark 9:2-13 and Luke 9:29-36).  I believe that these are some of the most important New Testament passages connecting Jesus to the fulfillment of the prophesy in Deut 18.  The accounts vary slightly but the central thrust is clear.  Moses and Elijah appear and by their coming validate the expectations of the Old Testament connected with both.  When Peter wants to preserve the occasion, God intervenes.  God declares that Jesus…See More

Did the Apostle Paul believe Jesus was the Prophet-like-Moses? And does it matter? Post 4 - the John passages

Hello Friends,At the end of post 3, I said that in post 4 I would look at some of the passages about the Prophet-like-Moses pointed out by other writers.  I was thinking particularly of Doug Gwyn’s Apocalypse of the Word, pp. 105 and 108.  I am going to focus this time on the references in the book of John and throw in some Doug did not list.The first is in John chapter 1.  In verses 19-28, the writer summarizes a conversation in which representatives of the Jewish leadership are trying to sort…See More

Did the Apostle Paul believe Jesus was the Prophet-like-Moses? And does it matter? Post 3 - How might Jesus be a prophet like Moses?

Hello Friends,At the end of the second blog post, I wrote that I would begin in this third to look more directly at Moses to see what the expectation of the Prophet-like-Moses might mean.  To get there, I am going to return to Stephen’s discourse in Act 7.  In the last post the focus was on verse 37.  I encourage those of you still reading to consider the whole discourse but especially the central portion related to Moses in verses 17 – 44.  One thing to note here is that Moses gets a lion’s…See More
