Thanks for the recommendation. I started reading a little of the first article you mentioned while on break, but his "work thing" got in the way of me finishing it. I look forward to finishing reading it tonight, and checking out the blog as well. |
Whoa! That book by Horner must be
something else! I'm going to look into obtaining it. I hope it's still in print... It likely would counter the institutionalized anti-Semitism of the RCC as well, which I always had a problem with.
Where "Christian" anti-Semitism, dispensationalism, charges of heretical belief in "replacement theology" and Romanism all meet in a "group hug" -
and they do - that's a bad scene. It's unfortunate that most Jewish believers are blind to this.
"Replacement Theology:" just another way of saying, "Reformed Prots Not Welcome Here."
BTW, the expedition to Palestine that I mentioned above, in 1839, was undertaken just before the disruption in the Church of Scotland in 1843, which resulted in the formation of the Free Church of Scotland (the "wee Frees"), which in turn resulted in the Free Church of Scotland [Continuing]. See what a good path the Church of Scotland was once on?
