Faith (12)
  1. God can never really be said to be ignoring us, even if our experience with God at any given moment is that he is.
  2. Justification is famously called the article upon which the church stands or falls. It is the article upon which The Lutheran Reformation stood boldly and confessed the Scriptural truth that we are made right before God by grace through faith on account of Christ alone.
  3. The Thinking Fellows discuss the doctrine of faith. Faith is not an ability or power inside of you but a gift from God.
  4. We have to “remember” that God remembers us. He has not fallen away. For God to remember us means he is working for our good; a restoration.

  6. Are theology and philosophy compatible?
  7. I think the problem with the idea of eternity is that we do not have any direct experience of it, but we encounter enough of its possibility to be unsettling.
  8. You might not know it, but every Christian hopes for the day when their faith will die. Really. I promise. Faith’s death is our celebration.
  9. Miracles, for all their wonder and encouragement, rely on the dazzling of our senses to work. Because miracle-faith produces sensory-faith, it is of a poor quality.
  10. There are a few occasions in the Bible where the curtain lifts, and we get to peer into the inner workings of the Divine Court.
  11. It is often the case that when dealing Divine, we find ourselves befuddled. For as relatable and surprisingly vulnerable God is as the man Jesus, he seems, at times, to retain a certain aloofness, a type of distance.
