I want to apply some Holy-Spirit-guided hermeneutics to the questions of divorce and abortion.
Divorce
First, what does the Bible say about divorce?  Nothing.  Unless you wear a veil that blocks out the Holy Ellipses.  In that case, you will see a fair bit.  For example, in the Old Testament, there are a lot of laws that [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=royalcares.wordpress.com&blog=3707869&post=455&subd=royalcares&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

I&#8217;m considering starting another series on hermeneutics.  As I plan the series, I realize that there is a common thread underlying hermeneutical technique: the Holy Spirit.  In this post, I am going to explain the role of the Holy Spirit in hermeneutics.
The Holy Ellipses
Turn in your Bibles, if you will, to 2 Corinthians 3.15–18.

Today, I&#8217;m continuing my series on Merely Reconciler&#8217;s question and answer with the college faculty.
In my previous post I talked about the question Dr. Reconciler took the most seriously: how to stop our University&#8217;s slide toward being intellectual and tolerant.  Today, I&#8217;ll tell you about part of his answer to the first question he got.

In the coming days, I&#8217;m going to post some more details from Merely Reconciler&#8217;s question and answer session with the college faculty.
The first questions began from the left.  Questions about academic freedom and even a question about taking care of the environment!  I&#8217;ll say a bit about some of these questions and his responses in [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=royalcares.wordpress.com&blog=3707869&post=414&subd=royalcares&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

I haven&#8217;t officially announced this yet:
We have a new provost at our University!  Merely Reconciler!  He has more power than past provosts in that he is over the college, the seminary, and the graduate school!
He was previously a professor at our seminary and he has been a pastor for the past few years.

Our University is big on reconciliation and diversity.  We have a &#8220;reconciliation studies&#8221; program and some of the big names in the field are faculty here.  Our new president and provost push the issue hard.  But not too hard.  They are wise enough to know where the limits of such a program need to be: [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=royalcares.wordpress.com&blog=3707869&post=391&subd=royalcares&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Unlike white male judges who are true Christians and thus have no culture, background, or distorted lens through which they see the world, Sonia Sotomayor comes from a culturally contextualized version of Christianity.  Instead of judging in a way that would provide for the legitimate needs of rich white men, she would judge in a [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=royalcares.wordpress.com&blog=3707869&post=441&subd=royalcares&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

How it started
Ched Meyers spoke at our college Chapel on March 30.  The title of his talk was “Sabbath Economics.”
I had never heard of this guy before but apparently he&#8217;s written some books about the economic implications of the teachings of Jesus and the Old Testament.  I didn&#8217;t go to Chapel that day because I [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=royalcares.wordpress.com&blog=3707869&post=370&subd=royalcares&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
