  Between — Authority: 126
  Our journeys through life and faith are often strange and convoluted. That certainly appears to be the case for Ann Rice , whose Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt I have just finished reading.

• Some Issues in NT Historiography, part 2

  
  Agent Intellect — Authority: 121
  In the first post I argued that much of the skepticism expressed towards New Testament history is based on the presupposition that miracles can never happen, that they are therefore maximally improbable, and as such cannot be offered as historical hypotheses regardless of the historical facts. There were some ...

• He Is

  
  Agent Intellect — Authority: 121
  Johns gospel was the last of the canonical gospels written, and has the clearest statements of Jesus divinity. Some people use this to argue that the claim that Jesus was (and is) God Incarnate was not present in the early Church, but developed over time. Much is made of Johns "I am" statements ("εγω ειμι" in ...

  Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth — Authority: 483

• Just Another Reason Not To Read Robert Price

  
  Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth — Authority: 483
  My original reason for not reading Robert Price was hearing him speak in various interviews.  He knows that his views are ridiculous and that scholars in general don’t take him or his views seriously, but he espouses them for kicks and giggles.  But after reading Tony Costa’s review of Price’s Jesus is Dead ...

• Didache on being τέλειος (perfect)

  
  Ecce Homo — Authority: 464

In Matthew, the idea (in the Sermon on the Mount) would seem that since God is “perfect” (in the context, he shows love to everyone), those who are part of the Jesus movement should do likewise (Matt 5.48). ...

  A fellow named Nate sent me an email last night asking me to take a look at a message board where a Christ Myther was making some claims that were going unaddressed.  I took a look and to be honest, I could only bring myself to skim it.  I really cannot, no matter how hard I try, take Christ Mythers seriously.  You ...
