Barr is surely right
in insisting that while fundamentalists have made many
changes in style (as evidenced,
for example, by Christianity Today) on the theological level and especially with
regard to biblical interpretation, there is more continuity than discontinuity.
The trouble with such rules, however, is that they may be taken as absolute, without
regard for the
changes needed
in adapting them to a new age.
Jeremy have been asking the holy spirit
for his help with this and
in regards to the lame man that Jesus healed I do nt believe that sin was the issue
for him just like the blind man was it his parents or did he sin the answer was neither but so that God would be glorified.What was the sin that may have been worse
for him.The two situations are related of the woman caught
in adultery the key words being go and sin no more only two references
in the bible and will explain later the lame man we see at first his dependency on everyone else
for his needs he cant do it he is
in the best position to receive Gods grace but what does he do with it.Does he follow Jesus no we are told he goes to the temple and Jesus finds him now that he has his strength to do things on his own what his response to follow the way of the pharisees that is what is worse than his condition before so he is warned by go and sin no more.We get confused because we see the word sin but the giver of is speaking to him to go another way means death.Getting back to the two situations of the woman caught
in adultery and the lame man here we see a picture of our hearts on the one our love
for sin and on the other the desire to work out our salvation on our terms they are the two areas we have to submit to God.My experience was the self righteousness was the harder to deal with because it is linked
in to our feelings of self worth and self confidence so we have to be broken so we are humble enough to realise that without God we can do nothing our flesh hates that so it is a struggle at first to
change our way of thinking.brentnz
Phrygian to me i sense that you are struggling with issues
in your mind that you cant reconcile and these issues are affecting what you believe
in your heart and therefore your faith
in God.I had something similar happen to me recently
regarding the story of the demon possessed man at one point the demons begged Jesus to cast them into the pigs does that mean that Jesus was implicated with the work of satan.It cast my mind into doubt and then i began to question who God is.I prayed and sort the holy spirit
for an answer the answer i got was that Gods character never
changes he is always holy righteous and sovereign why else would satan ask
for his permission.So the answer was that he allowed satans purpose to prevail so that we can see that satans intention is always to destroy it may well have been that the pigs were his anyway.As they were
for the gentile nations who offered the pigs to their demon Gods.Just as satan can not
change who he is the destroyer the thief the liar God can not
change who he is when we realise that despite what we see going on
in the world God is still the same yesterday today and forever.The time is coming when those that have hurt others will be judged
for there wickedness as we serve a holy and just God.Just as it was
in the times of Noah so it is with this this generation that as the wickedness reachs its zenith then the Lord will return to judge the nations.He is coming again and we need to be ready it is not a time to be caught sleeping.brentnz
I mentioned
in my introduction that your explanation
for how the Jewish community
regards Proverbs 31 really
changed my perspective on that passage.
He emphasized the active, integrating self (rather than the frail, victimized ego); held to a «soft» (rather than a «hard») determinism; had a strong interest
in future, goal - directed strivings (rather than origins); emphasized the organism as a whole centered
in the self (rather than a conflict view of personality);
regarded the striving
for worth and power (rather than sexual striving) as the central dynamic
in mental health and illness; emphasized the possibilities
for continuing
change in the later years (rather than
regarding the early years as utterly decisive)(2) It is clear from these motifs
in Adler's thought that his vision of human beings was positive and growth - centered.
What is again needed today — and remember that I am attempting to describe a position which will
regard Christianity as a living, growing tradition, continuous with its past yet open to the present, ready
for critical investigation and concerned to restate the faith
for those who live
in our own day — is precisely this fearless attitude about the faith, this honest effort at enquiry, and this constant willingness to relate the gospel to the
changed world of a new age.

nice to see you crawl out of your hole just
in time to offer your 2 cents worth once again... unlike yourself I started following this team long before Wenger arrived on the scene and will continue to do so long after he's gone...
in his earlier years I admired the cerebral elements he brought to the EPL, which at that point was more brutish than beautiful, and I respected the seemingly tireless efforts of Arsene, Dein & staff to uncover and develop talent without sacrificing the product on the field... likewise I appreciated that such a youthful manager wasn't afraid to bring strong personalities and / or world - class players into the fold without being fearful of how said players would potentially undermine and / or dilute his authority... unfortunately this all
changed about 10 years ago and culminated
in the removal of all our greatest players, both young and old, without any real replacements coming
in... from Henry to RVP to Fabergas and Nasri, it was easy to see that this club was no longer interested
in competing at the highest levels... instead of being honest, minus the ridiculous claims
regarding the new stadium, Wenger chose to side with management and
in doing so became the «front man»
for this corporation pretending to be a world - class soccer club... without the «front man» this organization would have been exposed numerous years earlier, so his presence was imperative if the facade was to continue... it's
for this reason and more that I despise what this once great man and Kroenke has done to my beloved club... the gutless, shameful and manipulative way they have treated the fans, like myself, is largely indefensible and this is why I felt it necessary to start offering my opinion
in a public format... trust me, I resisted the temptation
for many years but as long as the same shit continues to exist I will voice my opinions and if you don't like it maybe you should look
for a different team to pretend to follow
Kroenke knows nothing about football therefore has no
regard for the game, the players or the nonce to know when to
change a manager let alone who would be an asset at taking the club forward and to where it needs to go to compete with the Big Boys
in the league or Europe
for that matter.
A new and proper manager
in charge will
change the whole stale crumbling structure and we can finally begin the
change from staleness and regression to innovation, a
regard for the concept of defence — something Wenger has never shown — , coaching, organisation, motivation of the squad and all the other
changes we badly need.
any manager on earth if they were called specialist
in failure they would respond but wenger nah he is 2 classy except when he pushed moaninho on sidelines but apart from that nothing now Anderlecht manager mocks Wenger
for playing only 1 way And some people will still say he is held
in high
regard throughout football Wenger has become a joke within football, but out of respect
for past achievements the football community keeps quiet we shouldn't live
in past it's time
for change
Wish we had Fergie / he would know Arsenal just needs one player who would impose Arsenal play and draw all the talent we have to it's tempo / Arteta has saved us well
for the past 3 or so years
in this
regard / Every team has such an engine which dictates tempo
changes of tactics of which Arsenal are without one hence all the problems / ManCity have YAYA / Fergie had SCHOLES / West - Harm now have SONG / Aston - Villa have SANCHEZ / Chelsea have FABRIGAS / Real Madrid had XABI ALONSO / Baca have xavi / Liverpool have Steve Gerard another replica if our own Flamini.
The options appear to be the most obvious but also most unlikely action of nixing the deal entirely,
changing the players involved to lower Kemp's price
in that
regard for San Diego, or to have the Dodgers chip
in even more money than the $ 30 million of the remaining $ 107 million on Kemp's deal.
This is an incredibly difficult question to answer
for a variety of reasons, most importantly because over the years our once vaunted «beautiful» style of play has become a shadow of it's former self, only to be replaced by a less than stellar «plug and play» mentality where players play out of position and adjustments / substitutions are rarely forthcoming before the 75th minute... if you look at our current players, very few would make sense
in the traditional Wengerian system... at present, we don't have the personnel to move the ball quickly from deep - lying position, efficient one touch midfielders that can make the necessary through balls or the disciplined and pacey forwards to stretch defences into wide positions, without the aid of the backs coming up into the final 3rd, so that we can attack the defensive lanes
in the same clinical fashion we did years ago... on this current squad, we have only 1 central defender on staf, Mustafi, who seems to have any prowess
in the offensive zone or who can even pass two zones through so that we can advance play quickly out of our own end (I have seen some inklings that suggest Holding might have some offensive qualities but too early to tell)... unfortunately Mustafi has a tendency to get himself
in trouble when he gets overly aggressive on the ball... from our backs out wide, we've seen pace from the likes of Bellerin and Gibbs and the spirited albeit offensively stunted play of Monreal, but none of these players possess the skill - set required
in the offensive zone
for the new Wenger scheme which requires deft touches, timely runs to the baseline and consistent crossing, especially when Giroud was playing and his ratio of scored goals per clear chances was relatively low (better last year though)... obviously I like Bellerin's future prospects, as you can't teach pace, but I do worry that he regressed last season, which was obvious to Wenger because there was no way he would have used Ox as the right side wing - back so often knowing that Barcelona could come calling
in the off - season, if he thought otherwise... as
for our midfielders, not a single one, minus the more confident Xhaka I watched played
for the Swiss national team a couple years ago, who truly makes sense under the traditional Wenger model... Ramsey holds onto the ball too long, gives the ball away cheaply far too often and abandons his defensive responsibilities on a regular basis (doesn't score enough recently to justify): that being said, I've always thought he does possess a little something special, unfortunately he thinks so too... Xhaka is a little too slow to ever boss the midfield and he tends to telegraph his one true strength, his long ball play: although I must admit he did get a bit better during some points
in the latter part of last season... it always made me wonder why whenever he played with Coq Wenger always seemed to play Francis
in a more advanced role on the pitch... as
for Coq, he is way too reckless at the wrong times and has exhibited little offensive prowess yet finds himself
in and around the box far too often... let's face it Wenger was ready to throw him
in the trash heap when injuries forced him to use Francis and then he had the nerve to act like this was all part of a bigger Wenger constructed plan... he like Ramsey, Xhaka and Elneny don't offer the skills necessary to satisfy the quick transitory nature of our old offensive scheme or the stout defensive mindset needed to protect the defensive zone so that our offensive players can remain aggressive
in the final third... on the front end, we have Ozil, a player of immense skill but stunted by his physical demeanor that tends to offend, the fact that he's been played out of position far too many times since arriving and that the players
in front of him, minus Sanchez, make little to no sense considering what he has to offer (especially Giroud); just think about the quick counter-attack offence
in Real or the space and protection he receives
in the German National team's midfield, where teams couldn't afford to focus too heavily on one individual... this player was a passing «specialist» long before he arrived
in North London, so only an arrogant or ignorant individual would try to reinvent the wheel and / or not surround such a talent with the necessary components...
in regards to Ox, Walcott and Welbeck, although they all possess serious talents I see them
in large part as headless chickens who are on the injury table too much, lack the necessary first - touch and / or lack the finishing flair to warrant their inclusion
in a regular starting eleven; I would say that, of the 3, Ox showed the most upside once we went to a back 3, but even he became a bit too consumed by his pending contract talks before the season ended and that concerned me a bit... if I had to choose one of those 3 players to stay on it would be Ox due to his potential as a plausible alternative to Bellerin
in that wing - back position should we continue to use that formation...
in Sanchez, we get one of the most committed skill players we've seen on this squad
for some years but that could all
change soon, if it hasn't already of course... strangely enough, even he doesn't make sense given the constructs of the original Wenger offensive model because he holds onto the ball too long and he will give the ball up a little too often
in the offensive zone... a fact that is largely forgotten due to his infectious energy and the fact that the numbers he has achieved seem to justify the means... finally, and
in many ways most crucially, Giroud, there is nothing about this team or the offensive system that Wenger has traditionally employed that would even suggest such a player would make sense as a starter... too slow, too inefficient and way too easily dispossessed... once again, I think he has some special skills and, at times, has showed some world - class qualities but he's lack of mobility is an albatross around the necks of our offence... so when you ask who would be our best starting 11, I don't have a clue because of the 5 or 6 players that truly deserve a place
in this side, 1 just arrived, 3 aren't under contract beyond 2018 and the other was just sold to Juve... man, this is theraputic because following this team is like an addiction to heroin without the benefits
Well i will have to disagree with Ray Wilkins as
regards getting a striker, to be sincere we all were crying
for Wenger to sign a TOP Striker but since he's started playing Sanchez up top there has been a massive
change and come to think of it Sanchez is one of the best
in that position given that he doesn't even play there regularly and he's also the top scorer
in the PL, I believe we've always had a TOP striker
in Alexis and Mr Wenger didn't realize it until the beginning of this season.
