[TruthTalk] ACADEMICS; THE DIVIDING LINE

[Judy Taylor]

From: "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> No formal education whatsoever......................Triple Phd?Unable to read .........................Facility in numerous languages including Hebrew & Gree (oh, Arimaic for Mel's sake). Do we wish to feed the sometimes justifiable charicature of Christians? (How many Cns does it take to change a lightbulb? Make your own joke). I thank God for those who've taken the time, spent the money and laboured at great personal cost to understand the Nature of God and the Nature of God's Gospel. Lance   jt: The problem is Lance that this is NOT how one comes to KNOW God and the nature of his Word. You can learn some historical background that way but you will never have understanding because that can only come through Him and His condition is that first we must DO and then we will KNOW. In our culture we have been taught to fall at the feet of Academic because you can't make it in this life without a degree with Caesar's stamp of approval on it. Education is a 20th century idol.  God's will prevails with or without it. judyt
