Kenneth Matthews. Mark F. Dennis Cole. Eugene H. Enjoyed reading this commentary on the pastoral letters. There was no application of the text to life in general, but he was very thorough in dealing with the structure of the text and questions of interpretation. Jan 14, Dan Glover rated it liked it. Don't always agree with his conclusions at points and, considering his teaching on exegesis is quite good, he doesn't practice what he preaches at times, especially concerning the issue of the role of women in the household and in church ministry. However, if one can see past this, the majority of his commentary and others on Paul's letters is fairly good. May 16, Brian Collins rated it really liked it. Excellent defense of Pauline authorship in the introduction; disagreed with his position on women and ministry and did not find the exegesis compelling; found the commentary on 1 Timothy which was the section I read to do a good job of explaining how the letter fits together, how the parts relate to the whole. View 1 comment. Feb 09, David rated it it was amazing. Fees chief contribution in this book is that he views it as a specific letter written to Timothy for specific problems at the church on Ephesus. He doesn't see it as a general guideline for church management and growth. It is very helpful very insightful and very much worth having on your shelf. Jan 25, Travis Johnston rated it really liked it Shelves: seminary , millar. Decent commentary. I appreciated the technical but not too technical aspects. He states the different viewpoints in exegesis well, then lands. I cannot say I agreed with every point. But a solid commentary none the less.

Fee gave great insight in Fee is undoubtedly a skilled scholar, but I felt many times while reading this that he avoided some of the major evidence in favor of all views regarding elders and deacons, and especially regarding the role of women. Fee gave great insight into some difficult passages, and even at times that I didn't agree with him he made me think deeply about the text. Jun 15, Mark Evans rated it it was ok. Fee unjustifiably argues that the false teaching in Ephesus was female dominant. Hence the prohibitions are merely situational against the female false teachers there.

    A STRATEGY FOR ADVANCING THE SPIRIT-FILLED RENEWAL MOVEMENT AMONG AMERICAN BAPTIST PASTORS A MINISTRY FOCUS PAPER SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY FULLER THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE DOCTOR OF MINISTRY BY GARY KENNETH CLARK JULY 2000 Abstract A Strategy for Advancing The Spirit-filled Renewal Movement among American Baptist Pastors through the Holy Spirit Renewal Ministries Gary Kenneth Clark Doctor of Ministry School of Theology, Fuller Theological Seminary This Ministry Focus Paper presents a strategy for advancing a Spirit-filled renewal movement among American Baptist pastors serving local churches through a volunteer movement, the Holy Spirit Renewal Ministries. The American Baptist Denomination has experienced a serious decline in members and overall effectiveness during the past forty years. At the same time, a number of American Baptist pastors and congregations have entered into a Spirit-filled, empowered ministry with significant evangelistic conversion growth and multi-gifted charismatic breakthroughs. With the evidence that traditional Baptist Churches can be transformed through a spiritual renewal into dynamic, growing congregations which are serving their communities with the power of God, the Holy Spirit Renewal Ministries seeks to assist pastors into a renewal through the programs, influence, and goals of the Holy Spirit Renewal Ministries in American Baptist Churches, Incorporated. The paper will analyze spiritual needs in the denomination, and review the contribution that has, is, and may be made toward true spiritual renewal of pastoral leaders. The paper is presented in three sections. The first part presents the biblical and theological foundation for a Spirit-empowered ministry and a model of a contemporary American Baptist church which experienced the empowered ministry for thirty years.

  • The Spirit in the Temple: Bridging the Gap Between Old Testament Absence and New Testament Assumption
    JETS 55/4 (2012) 717–42 THE SPIRIT IN THE TEMPLE: BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN OLD TESTAMENT ABSENCE AND NEW TESTAMENT ASSUMPTION JOSEPH R. GREENE* The NT assumes a close correspondence between the Holy Spirit and God’s presence in the temple. This assumption is most clearly expressed in passages such as 1 Cor 3:16; 6:19; Eph 2:22 where believers are called a “temple of the Holy Spir- it.”1 This concept is alluded to in other contexts such as John 14:17 where Jesus (in fulfillment of the temple) promises to mediate God’s indwelling presence through the Holy Spirit.2 This NT concept seems to be drawing from antecedent notions concerning the temple and yet no OT Scripture explicitly refers to the Spirit in- dwelling the temple. Despite the lack of direct references, many scholars presup- pose that the NT relationship between the Holy Spirit and the temple is based up- on OT antecedents.3 The gap between the OT and NT data is often addressed by simply incorporating the NT assumption without an investigation as to how the unstated in the OT became assumed in the NT. This paper’s purpose is to address this gap through an investigation of the temple and Spirit concepts in the OT and literature of the Second Temple period.4 Starting with the OT and moving into the Second Temple period I will argue the following points. (1) One of the most important functions of the tabernac- le/temple was mediating Yahweh’s presence to his people. (2) In the OT, Yahweh’s presence was depicted with the terms “cloud” and/or “glory” in the sanctuary.

  • The Role of Women at the Village Church
    ––––––––––––––––––––– The Role of Women at The Village Church Our foundation for life and ministry starts with the understanding that the Bible is God’s Word. As affirmed in our Statement of Basic Beliefs, “We believe the Scriptures are true, authoritative and sufficient” (Ps. 19:7-11; 2 Tim. 3:16; 2 Pet. 1:20-21). Therefore, we believe that any attempt to understand personhood and gender must begin with divine revelation. The Bible teaches that God created two complementary sexes of humans, male and female, to bear His image together (Gen. 1:27-28; Matt. 19:4; Mark 10:6). This distinction in gender represents an essential characteristic of personhood and reflects an essential part of being created in God’s image. As outlined in Scripture and in accordance with our Statement of Faith, we believe that men and women are absolutely equal in essence, dignity and value and are complementary by divine design. Gender does not merely represent a social construct but, instead, represents a reality present in every human from birth. Men and women are not interchangeable. From the opening pages of Scripture, we find that God, in His wisdom and providence, created two complementary sexes for our good and His glory. In light of His good created order, and the fact that men and women both share in divine image bearing, God intends for men and women to have different yet complementary roles and responsibilities in the church and home. These role distinctions do not arise from cultural definitions of masculinity and femininity but are an integral part of God’s plan for humanity, as revealed in Scripture.

  • The New Perspective on Paul: Its Basic Tenets, History, and Presuppositions
    TMSJ 16/2 (Fall 2005) 189-243 THE NEW PERSPECTIVE ON PAUL: ITS BASIC TENETS, HISTORY, AND PRESUPPOSITIONS F. David Farnell Associate Professor of New Testament Recent decades have witnessed a change in views of Pauline theology. A growing number of evangelicals have endorsed a view called the New Perspective on Paul (NPP) which significantly departs from the Reformation emphasis on justification by faith alone. The NPP has followed in the path of historical criticism’s rejection of an orthodox view of biblical inspiration, and has adopted an existential view of biblical interpretation. The best-known spokesmen for the NPP are E. P. Sanders, James D. G. Dunn, and N. T. Wright. With only slight differences in their defenses of the NPP, all three have adopted “covenantal nomism,” which essentially gives a role in salvation to works of the law of Moses. A survey of historical elements leading up to the NPP isolates several influences: Jewish opposition to the Jesus of the Gospels and Pauline literature, Luther’s alleged antisemitism, and historical-criticism. The NPP is not actually new; it is simply a simultaneous convergence of a number of old aberrations in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. * * * * * When discussing the rise of the New Perspective on Paul (NPP), few theologians carefully scrutinize its historical and presuppositional antecedents. Many treat it merely as a 20th-century phenomenon; something that is relatively “new” arising within the last thirty or forty years. They erroneously isolate it from its long history of development. The NPP, however, is not new but is the revival of an old ideology that has been around for the many centuries of church history: the revival of works as efficacious for salvation.

Welcoming a child is a parabolic action done by Christ to show that the way to be the greatest is to welcome the weakest or to be the servant of all. A childthus equatedis used as to aslaves. paradigm Therefore, due to hiswelcoming or her low a child status means in the welcoming Greco-Roman the society. Children had no right, seen as properties rather than persons, and weakest of the society, and doing so means to welcome Christ himself and the one who sent him. The suffering caused by COVID-19 makes the whole world suffer, yet it also creates a bigger gap between the rich and the poor, the strong and the weak. A reflection on the paradigm invites Christians to side with the weakest and those who are in need, hoping that the kingdom of God Keywordswill be ushered into this suffering world.

  • Complementarianism & Preaching
    COMPLEMENTARIANISM & PREACHING This paper aims to formulate a position on how complementarianism can and should function within Acts 29, specifically in relation to whether it is legitimate or appropriate for women to teach in the primary, regular gathering of a local church. In other words, this is about defining the acceptable breadth of the public practice of our complementarianism when the church meets together. This paper is necessary because there is a breadth of practice in Acts 29 which needs addressing and assessing. Therefore, it is written for Acts 29 churches and, although it is primarily an internal document, it will be used as a metric for Assessment. This is a position paper, formally approved by the Board and so an integral piece of the Covenant Update. It is intended to be global in its reflections and conclusion, albeit addressed largely to the contexts of the majority of our constituents. The paper seeks to carefully and thoroughly unpack #4 of our 5 Distinctives. ACTS 29 POSITION PAPER - 1 - Final Version — August 2018 COMPLEMENTARIANISM & PREACHING Acts 29 Position Paper — August 2018 ABSTRACT Purpose This paper aims to formulate a position on how complementarianism can and should function within Acts 29. Given the breadth of practice which exists within Acts 29, this topic needs to be assessed and addressed. To this end, the paper examines the Acts 29 Distinctive (#4) on complementarianism. It unpacks each paragraph in turn, explaining and expounding on the biblical rationale behind our position in order to provide a basis for our continued fidelity to male headship in the home and in the church.
