Chapter Three

I got over my fussiness about the way Mr. Keener writes and came to the understanding that obviously no one knows exactly what happened in the first century. We're all just trying to learn all we can about the heart of our God. I enjoyed my reading more as I remembered that I'm just trying to learn different thoughts on the topic we're studying. I enjoyed reading about Eve as I've always felt a little sorry for her. I've always felt that she just wanted to be more like God and be closer to him. Satan deceived her - just like he deceives me.

My favorite line in Chapter 3 is in the conclusion.

"We trust inner conviction and the fruit of holy lives and teaching and faithfulness to that call, and if the evidences are insufficient demonstration of divine calling in the case of our sisters, how shall we attest our own?"

I'm moving on to Chapter 4 with a better attitude... I hope.

Chapter 2 Comments?

Anyone? Okay, to be honest, I haven't read it yet, but I should have a chunk of time tonight. Surely one of us has read it and has a thought or two? If not, just share something that's been going on in your life this week. My other half's been in St. Louie all week, so I've been a bit busier and not home much.

Hope everyone is well. Keep reading!
