Newsweek’s Ridiculous Article on the Bible

Dr. Albert Mohler said that, "It is one of the most irresponsible articles ever to appear in a journalistic guise."

Dr. Dan Wallace says, "Eichenwald makes so many outrageous claims, based on a rather slender list of named scholars (three, to be exact), that one has to wonder how this ever passed any editorial review."

Dr. Michael Kruger states that the article, "goes so far beyond the standard polemics, and is so egregiously mistaken about the Bible at so many places, that the magazine should seriously consider a public apology to Christians everywhere."

Part 2:

The Power of Christian Music

When you think about how Christian music has great themes of the attributes of our Triune God, the glories of our redemption or the struggles of the Christian walk; have you ever thought about how Christian music disciples believers?  Music that has great Christian themes teach us and embed in us great biblical themes that are used to help us in our Christian walk.

This aspect of discipleship is true whether we are talking about contemporary Christian music or hymns.  I love great hymns like: Holy, Holy, Holy, And Can it Be, Amazing Grace, Be Thou My Vision, and Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing . . .  and I truly enjoy singing “contemporary” music like: Forever, Everlasting God, God of Wonders, Here I Am to Worship, In Christ Alone, Mighty to Save, and 10,000 Reasons.

Now many of the songs listed above I can easily sing with other believers in a church setting or conference.  However, there are also songs that have deeply impacted my Christian walk that are only used for personal listening and worship.  What I mean by personal listening is that I have never heard of congregations using them.  I had a great time recently when I reminisced how the Lord used certain music to really minister to me in my early Christian years.  I recommend taking some time to listen to the songs the Lord used at different times in your life to minister to you.
