    Nature, Nurture, And Necessity

    Clever. I enjoy that sort of presentation. Some further observations: ⛓ The Convergence at the Cross: Nature, Nurture, Necessity In the beginning was Nature God formed man from the dust of the ground (Genesis 2:7)—earthbound, organic, bearing the image of the Creator. Nature was not random...

    Nature, Nurture, And Necessity

    The question has been asked: "Does the phrase "Necessity is the mother of invention", have any Biblical parallels?" The Bible never uses the phrase “Necessity is the mother of invention,” but several biblical narratives embody the same principle—human need provoking creative, Spirit‑guided...

    The bible contains what percentage of 'ALL SCRIPTURE'? 2 Timothy 3:16

    No sadness here. Some folk set themselves illogical mind games to solve. Quite unnecessary. The logos we have from God is sufficient and efficient for our needs. We would go mad trying to hear every rhema of God to all mankind individually. The Bible I accept is published under God's Providence...

    Nature, Nurture, And Necessity

    Over 7 decades my thoughts have been occupied with the nature - nurture narrative, but on further reflection I have concluded a third party to be involved, namely necessity. Some of the deepest thinkers in philosophy, theology, and developmental science have immersed themselves in nature -...

    The bible contains what percentage of 'ALL SCRIPTURE'? 2 Timothy 3:16

    Strange question. Why would anyone presume such a thing could be quantified.? Psa 40:5 Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more...

    The bible contains what percentage of 'ALL SCRIPTURE'? 2 Timothy 3:16

    Most Bible Colleges would teach this: General Usage of Canon In ordinary language, canon means: 1. A recognized body of work A set of texts, artworks, or ideas considered authoritative, foundational, or definitive within a field. “The Shakespearean canon” → all works accepted as genuinely...

    The bible contains what percentage of 'ALL SCRIPTURE'? 2 Timothy 3:16

    The canon of Scripture is closed, so whatever else God has said, is saying, and will say, isn't Scripture.

    The bible contains what percentage of 'ALL SCRIPTURE'? 2 Timothy 3:16

    No problem. He was inspired by the Holy Spirit to include his own editorialising in his epistles.

    The bible contains what percentage of 'ALL SCRIPTURE'? 2 Timothy 3:16

    It's the result of studying in conjunction with the Holy Spirit's guidance to cut right into the word of truth 2Ti 2:15 Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that need not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

    The bible contains what percentage of 'ALL SCRIPTURE'? 2 Timothy 3:16

    100% in mine. The whole Bible is breathed out by God. It's authors of both Old and New Testaments were inspired by God, including Solomon in Ecclesiastes writing from a deliberately limited awareness perspective, and that’s the key to unlocking the whole book. The Perspective: “Under the...

    The bible contains what percentage of 'ALL SCRIPTURE'? 2 Timothy 3:16

    Make that Galatians 5. Some people make a buzzer sound when they notice an error. I'm just kindly picking up on a typo.

    Monstrous Authority On The Warpath

    My experience of religious institutions and faith-based organisations, large, medium, or small, is that Monstrous Authority manifests in many ways, often lurking in the shadows, sometimes stepping out briefly, or hanging around for awhile during skirmishes, but much preferring to be centre-stage...

    Young Queer Christians Are Going on a New Kind of Pilgrimage

    According to my research, LGBTQ frames queerness as something to be proud of, not as something inordinate. By definition, Inordinate affections are passions that exceed their proper bounds, leading to sin or spiritual imbalance.
