Do they not set forth the covenant of grace? The doctrine of justification by faith -- does not Paul in his Epistle to the Romans prove it from Genesis and from the Psalms? Where is the doctrine of substitution and the vicarious sufferings of the messiah set forth more clearly than in Leviticus and in the 53rd of Isaiah? The term "Old Testament" leads people to fancy it is an antiquated book; whereas, in many respects, it is newer than the New Testament, referring more fully to the age of glory and blessedness on the earth which is still before us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't know if college actually changes your viewpoint; it just gives you more depth.

Because it rests on Christ and his authority, the question of inerrancy will therefore remain a key doctrine of the evangelical church so long as Christ is Lord. Evangelicals must remember, however, that this basis must be set forth anew for every generation. What was adequate for Gaussen, Pieper, and Warfield is still valuable, but it is not necessarily adequate to serve as the foundation for the thinking of our generation. The case for inerrancy must be made anew with each presentation of the gospel teaching.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6394</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is both surprising and delightful is that spectators are allowed, and even expected, to join in the vocal part ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57494]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is both surprising and delightful is that spectators are allowed, and even expected, to join in the vocal part of the game...
