We read the Bible and interpret Scripture in order to live in grace-filled relation to God's divine purpose.When we approach the Bible as Scripture author, Joel Green, takes seriously the faith statement that the Bible is our Book; these scriptures are our Scripture. We are not reading someone else's mail--as though reading the Bible had to do foremost with recovering an ancient meaning intended for someone else and then translating its principles for use in our own lives. When we recall that we are the people of God to whom the Bible is addressed as Scripture, we realize that the fundamental transformation is not the transformation of an ancient message into a contemporary meaning, bur rath...
A forceful, scholarly call to return to the solid ground of the ancient creeds of Christianity. Dr. Montgomery's incisive observations on Barth, Bultmann, Tillich, de Chardin, Pike and others may rankle some readers on occasion. But there can never be any question about the mental acumen he brings to bear upon his subject or the skill with which he pens his views. Montgomery is so obviously at home in the area of the theological, and so conversant with the convictions of his fellow theologians that he certainly must be reckoned with. Not content with only analyzing the suicide of theology, the author also gives a proposal for its resurrection.
In 1979, Virgil R. Lee and his family moved to the Dawson Street United Methodist Church in Thomasville, Georgia, where he would serve as pastor. The church newsletter that was mailed was printed on plain white bond paper, which meant the front page was blank. The author determined he’d use the space not for some kind of advertisement or promotion but to say something inspiring and encouraging. With that thought in mind, he wrote the first article, thinking about “little sermons that I have seen” – and from 1979 to 1993, he wrote an article every week under that topic with only an occasional exception. After 1993, when he became district superintendent of the Americus District of the United Methodist Church, he began writing his messages monthly to coincide with the newsletter publication schedule of the district. You’ll enjoy the author’s thoughtful meditations and God-given wisdom on a variety of topics in Little Sermons That I Have Seen.
