A potpourri of our own ideas and perspectives on a variety of comments/questions sent in by our listeners.
It’s been months since we looked through the boxes full of comments and questions that our listeners have sent to us through our web-sites, Facebook, emails, and podcast providers. Last week, we abstracted from our short list of favorite picks all the comments/questions that pertained to our 4-part Left Behind mini-series. Today, we look at the ones that were “left behind” after that abstracting!?
So, which comments/questions did we cover?
- the idea of a so-called “Biblical lens” … or “Jesus lens”
- any lens can actually distort the thing you’re looking at
- are religions other than Judaism and Christianity also divinely-inspired?
- the Incan god Viracocca sounds an awful like like Ezekiel’s and Isaiah’s YHWH, as well as like John’s Ancient of Days in Revelation
- does the Bible talk about YHWH/God talking to non-Jews?
- the Babylonian Emperor Cyrus was God’s Messiah?
- how small the world of Western Evangelical thought is
- what we can learn from Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Christians
- inter-faith learning and ecumenism
- Christianity gets some things right, and other things wrong?
- if you (Luke or Scott) decided to leave your faith, how would your life change?
As always, tell us your thoughts on these points …
