@aoiahiru 'a frivolous game of words'? I disagree. There is a very serious error in suggesting that Christians are called to 'follow Christ's way'. The error is that it seperates Christ from 'the way'. Christ IS the way! The ONLY way! Jesus is not merely a good moral teacher who told us how we should live. He is the Saviour, who lived a perfect life then died in the place of sinners and rose again,so that sinners who turn to him in repentance and faith can be forgiven.
If you'd like to read a detailed & fair review of Bell's theology (the YouTube 500 character limit makes this difficult in a single comment!), go to my website aletheia dot org dot uk, scroll down, on the left there's an external link to a review by Dale Van Dyke of Rob Bell's 'Velvet Elvis' (my YouTube channel has a link to my website). Thanks.
"follower of Jesus' way..."??? I thought we were followers of Christ, not His way.
The Bible is clear. It is useful, accessable, and a great theological resource. I highly recommend it. It is the Holy Spirit that reveals interpretation to people, not any book written by man. 2 Timothy 2:15! 2 Timothy 3:16! Proverbs 3:5,6! We must stop idolizing psuedo-intellectuals, and put God first in every aspect of our lives.
Rob Bell's teachings are steeped in unbiblical dung, that's for sure. I recommend his books because the pages tear out easily and can be used in the bottom of your bird cage or you can use the edges to clean your teeth or if you run out of toilet paper...
The church has been walking along side Jesus for 2000 years and just hasn't understood Him. So along comes Rob Bell to interpret for us. Rob is such a 'humble' guy to do this.
No Thanks - I'll stick with the Bible and let it interpret it's self.
how does the bible interpret itself? I don't understand what that means to be honest.
And... how has the church been walking alongside Jesus for 2000 years considering our track record? The crusades, catholic pursecution, pastors that preach fire and brim stone messages outside of concerts...
Rob Bell openly asks that you challenge what he says, and he is hardly the first nor does he claim to be. We had C.S. Lewis before him, martin luthar before that... and I'm running out of room to type
Spreading good news is wonderful, but unfortunately, there are some who don't want to admit to the good Rob Bell is doing.
