“Christians ought to be theological, not stopping with the work of exegesis but using exegesis to open up what is revealed to us of the consistent mind of God.”
-Christopher Ash, Marriage: Sex in the Service of God, p. 21

The late Dr. Greg Bahnsen put it really well when he said about the secular worldview: “They (unbelievers) are not neutral and you (Christians) should not be.” He was teaching about the myth of neutrality, which is a slippery slope for most Christians, since they want to “fit in” with their friends and family, but struggle with God’s commands. If we allow ourselves to even consider the alleged neutral position of secularism, then we open ourselves up to “being devoured by the roaring lion, seeking anyone…”
I’d say a lot of Christians have been devoured by a trumpeting elephant, if you look at the blog scene.
Loving truth and seeking it is evidence that we worship the Father in Spirit and truth.
Denny, you should get in touch with Pastor Jeff Durbin of Calvary Addictions & Recovery Center & Apologia Church (www.defendthefaith.org) in Phoenix. He also hosts a weekly radio program and he’s love to have you on as a guest to discuss the many issues we are dealing with nowadays. Let me know if you want his contact info.
