And the evening sermon:
Started off with a little discussion of the upcoming seminar in St. Charles (see below), and then focused on 1 Corinthians chapter 8 for the rest of the program, discussing interpretational issues and dangers especially our audience might face in doing apologetics and exegesis. Finished off with some discussion of a major textual variant in Isaiah 9:6 between the Hebrew
Yeah, I know. I did warn everyone beforehand saying this would be a seminary-level program, and, well, it was. Just a little discussion of today’s journey and where I am before getting into Gregory’s confession of faith once again.

Pastor Jason Robinson from West Virginia joined us on the program today to offer competing (and conflicting!) interpretations of this key soteriological text. 30 minutes of exegesis then 30 minutes of cross-ex, with ten minutes of closing statements. We developed connection issues during the cross-examination and had to go to the phone to finish things up. Jeff Durbin joined me
