I’m note sure about that… All Scripture Is God Breathed – May 12, 2024
Manage episode 418112691 series 2136182
In the RMC sermon series "I'm Not So Sure About That," which addresses questions offered from the congregation, Melissa Florer-Bixler helps us to understand why there are so many disturbing stories, deeply flawed servants of God, and appalling deeds that appear in the Bible. Melissa shares with us that as Christians, we are a people of the Book and as Anabaptists, we share with each other on a regular basis where we hear from the Holy Spirit. The Bible is critical to our faith but does not achieve its function in isolation from shared context and interpretation. The stories from the Bible are our stories and spiritual history, yet we cannot learn from our mistakes or about God's deep love and commitment to us (despite our failures to reciprocate) if we exclude or downplay these difficult passages. If we listen and speak the Word together, embracing this complexity as the breath of God standing ready to enter our lives, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we can find the person of Jesus waiting there to love, guide, and redeem us.
