On Landing…
My intention in my recent posts has been to convey clearly something that is quite important to me. Allow me to make it explicit.
There are issues that very sincere, informed, well-read people disagree about. And there is often the tempation to land on such issues in such a way that communicates this attitude – “I have this figured out and now I am going to convince you that I am right.”
That is not my intent in the journey I am on. My intent is to learn everything I can, stay open to opposing ideas, and then humbly communicate where I think the Bible points us.
So . . . that is where I am going. I will put out ideas that are helping me, but I will do so as one who is not hesitant to say where I have not gained any sure clarity.
That is where I find myself on neo-Calvinism and Two-Kingdoms. I have a lot of respect for people in both camps on this one. I am airing my journey in the hopes that it may be helpful to some others who are on a similar path of discovery.
