Christian Disagreement: Major on the Majors, Minor on the Minors.

Got this from a fellow Shreveporter’s blog who is a member of the Church that, Lord-willing, I will be joining. Great stuff.

“If you pay any attention to the Christian blogosphere, you’ve noticed a very public theological debate.  I don’t intend to wade into the deep waters of that debate (assuming such waters can be adequately waded online), but I think it is important that we consider how we discuss and disagree about theology…” continue reading here.

  1. @matt-good stuff. Happy you will be joining a Christian community. The things on which Christians agree on are important than the things we disagree, even though, the latter is very important, too. Since the common source for every Christian is sacred Scripture we should begin there. I also think all Christians that the point of contact is Christ.

  2. I agree. I am, unfortunately, barraged with Facebook updates (because Facebook changes people’s minds, right?) about such trivial disagreements, such as baptism, whether or not you should have Christian rock and rap, and how old the earth really is. It gets tiring when so much of it really doesn’t matter to the extent that they seem to think it does. If someone is blatantly proposing a universalist view and still claims to be Christian, then that’s erroneous, but when someone says that the earth is not billions of years old or that the “days” in Genesis were literal, that’s not a cause for breaking off fellowship.
