Oh, he was staunch about Inspiration of Scripture.
He was just a larger person than a lot of people. And, he served a larger God Almighty than most denominational people.
I've learned that God is often MUCH MORE "BOTH/AND" than He is either/or. I don't know how to explain it.
I also doubt that God is going to give out eternal spankings for reasonable people who differ in reasonable ways about Scriptural stuff which He didn't make abundantly and adamantly clear one way or the other.
Certainly the Virgin birth; death; resurrection etc. are NOT such fuzzy things. But many other things are arguable.
God must have had His reasons for setting it up that way. One of the mysteries, I think.
God must have had His reasons for setting it up that way. God is NOT the author of confusion. |
