]]> Comment on Telemachus vs the Gladiators by Bob Lee http://exposistory.wordpress.com/2008/03/25/telemachus-vs-the-gladiators/#comment-48 Bob Lee Sun, 31 Aug 2008 01:32:09 +0000 http://exposistory.wordpress.com/?p=21#comment-48 I wanted to say thanks for sharing this story. I heard Steve Chalke on the Mars Hill Podcast in a message back on June 1 share this story. In preparing for this Sunday's message I recalled the story and wanted to share it with my congregation in a sermon. I searched online and your blog came up as a hit which enabled me to get the details of the story. In case you are interested in Chalke's ministry, check out http://www.stopthetraffik.org/language.aspx and http://www.oasistrust.org/ Thanks again for your work and ministry. Grace and peace.

It would be so nice to be able to go into any "church" and listen and not worry about using our minds.

The truth of God is theology. The truth of God is all that matters. To understand who God is and what He desires, we have to go to His word and dig in. We get our doctrine from studying theology. God is love. Amen to that. But is that His only attribute. He doesn't elevate His love over His justice or His holiness (what He desires; or loves the most). We glorify God the most, by getting our hands dirty if you will, in His word. I am do pray for your progressive sanctification. Where God continues to make you more like His son.

I've heard that that blog (calledout.wordpress.com) is really a theo-centric, Christ exalting, Calvinistic medally if you will. I thought that you wanted to have some stimulating theological awakenings? Grab you cup of joe and dig into the lamp that puts out the light so to speak, and visit. We can continue our apologetics like at the ol trac. I see that callout is not on your blog roll.
