I am forever changed as a result. My family and church are thankful. Thank you to President Albert Mohler for remaining biblically and confessionally faithful and steadfast for these many years. I owe my theology in part to you and to several other professors, in no particular order. First, to my doctoral supervisor, Mark Coppenger, and to committee members Bruce Ware and Kenneth Magnuson, thank you for sharpening and pushing me to think biblically and logically about concupiscence and same-sex attraction. Thank you for standing on Scripture and teaching me to do the same. Second, Stephen Wellum, thank you for teaching me the doctrine of God, the Trinity, Christology, the atonement, and the authority of Scripture as the infallible and inerrant word of God. Also, thank you for encouraging me to build my theology in light of those faithful Christians who have come before. Third, Bruce Ware, thank you for teaching me the doctrine of God, divine simplicity, the Trinity, and the authority of Scripture as the infallible and inerrant word of God. Also, thank you for being passionate about theology, ministry, and the gospel. Fourth, Greg Allison, thank you for teaching me anthropology. I owe much of my love for others to you, from my spouse, and our children, to my church, the unborn, and orphans. Fifth, Russell Moore, thank you for teaching me to preach, and to be passionate about engaging culture, loving God and my neighbor. Thank you for teaching me that the Bible is a book for humanity, not merely the church. Crossville, Tennessee Jared Moore December 2019 vii CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION In recent years, there has been an explosion of writings in evangelicalism on whether same-sex attraction is sinful. The writings are spurred largely

During the period the Lutheran, Reformed, and Anglican churches were the official churches in Protestant countries and religious polemics between Catholicism and Protestantism formed an integral part of the intense political strife that gave birth to modern Europe. Reformed orthodoxy is usually divided into three periods that represent three different stages; there is no watershed between these periods and it is difficult to “ ” determine exact dates. During the period of early orthodoxy the confessional and doctrinal codifications of Reformed theology took place. This period is characterized by polemics against the Counter-Reformation; it starts with the death of the second- generation Reformers (around 1565) and ends in the first decades of the seventeenth century.1 The international Reformed Synod of Dort (1618-1619) is a useful milestone, 2 “ because this synod codified Reformed soteriology.

  • The Generations of Adam
    The Generations of Adam hat is the purpose of Bible chronology? According to Philip Mauro, in Wonders of Bible Chronology, “its basis is the Bible itself; its plan is the genealogical or life line that Wstretches from the first Adam to the last Adam ... and its purpose is to bring those who follow its progress to revelations of vital truth pertaining to God’s mighty work of redemption.” Genesis 5 reveals the time span between Adam and the worldwide flood of Noah’s time. The following table summarizes this time line: Age at: Anno Hominis Adam created 0 Adam's birth of Seth (130) 130 Seth's birth of Enosh (105) 235 Enosh's birth of Kenan (90) 325 Kenan's birth of Mahalalel (70) 395 Mahalalel's birth of Jared (65) 460 Jared's birth of Enoch (162) 622 Enoch's birth of Methuselah (65) 687 Methuselah's birth of Lamech (187) 874 Lamech's birth of Noah (182) 1056 time of worldwide flood Noah's 1656 (600) Before we analyze Genesis 5 further, a few general points must be made. First, the Bible is the only reliable source book that gives history with an exact chronology for the first 4000 years of the human race. It has been about 6000 years since the creation of man. For the first 3/5ths of this period, there is no chronological information whatever except in the Bible. The histories of other peoples give an account of their beginning vaguely and in the context of myths and fables. In contrast, the Bible is a very accurate historical document.

  • Mistranslations of the Prophets' Names in the Holy Quran: a Critical Evaluation of Two Translations
    Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.8, No.2, 2017 Mistranslations of the Prophets' Names in the Holy Quran: A Critical Evaluation of Two Translations Izzeddin M. I. Issa Dept. of English & Translation, Jadara University, PO box 733, Irbid, Jordan Abstract This study is devoted to discuss the renditions of the prophets' names in the Holy Quran due to the authority of the religious text where they reappear, the significance of the figures who carry them, the fact that they exist in many languages, and the fact that the Holy Quran addresses all mankind. The data are drawn from two translations of the Holy Quran by Ali (1964), and Al-Hilali and Khan (1993). It examines the renditions of the twenty five prophets' names with reference to translation strategies in this respect, showing that Ali confused the conveyance of six names whereas Al-Hilali and Khan confused the conveyance of four names. Discussion has been raised thereupon to present the correct rendition according to English dictionaries and encyclopedias in addition to versions of the Bible which add a historical perspective to the study. Keywords: Mistranslation, Prophets, Religious, Al-Hilali, Khan. 1. Introduction In Prophets’ names comprise a significant part of people's names which in turn constitutes a main subdivision of proper nouns which include in addition to people's names the names of countries, places, months, days, holidays etc. In terms of translation, many translators opt for transliterating proper names thinking that transliteration is a straightforward process depending on an idea deeply rooted in many people's minds that proper nouns are never translated or that the translation of proper names is as Vermes (2003:17) states "a simple automatic process of transference from one language to another." However, in the real world the issue is different viz.

  • The Christian Comforter
    The Christian Comforter Enoch the seventh from Adam In the book of Genesis, there are two Enoch’s; one from the line of Cain, in Genesis 4:17, and one from the line of Seth, who is the Enoch that we are concerned with here. The lineage is Adam — Seth — Enos — Cainan — Mahalaleel — Jared — Enoch. Enoch walked with God, and after 365 years God took him — he did not die. Genesis 5:23-24 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. This fact is expanded upon in Hebrews chapter 11 — among those who walked in faith. Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. Enoch is also found in the genealogy of Jesus. Luke 3:37 Which was the son of Mathusala, which was the son of Enoch, which was the son of Jared, which was the son of Maleleel, which was the son of Cainan. Note; above the names are spelt differently in the New Testament which was originally written in Greek. In the time of the early church fathers, the book of Enoch was widely accepted as inspired scripture by Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Clement of Alexandria, Athenagoras, Tertullian, Origen and Lactantius. They all referenced Enoch in their own writings, probably because of Jude’s reference that it was a prophetic text. Jude 1:14-15 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

  • Getting Cain and Gain Matthew L
    Getting Cain and Gain Matthew L. Bowen [Page 115]Abstract: The biblical etiology (story of origin) for the name “Cain” associates his name with the Hebrew verb qny/qnh, “to get,” “gain,” “acquire,” “create,” or “procreate” in a positive sense. A fuller form of this etiology, known to us indirectly through the Book of Mormon text and directly through the restored text of the Joseph Smith Translation, creates additional wordplay on “Cain” that associates his name with murder to “get gain.” This fuller narrative is thus also an etiology for organized evil—secret combinations “built up to get power and gain” (Ether 8:22–23; 11:15). The original etiology exerted a tremendous influence on Book of Mormon writers (e.g., Nephi, Jacob, Alma, Mormon, and Moroni) who frequently used allusions to this narrative and sometimes replicated the wordplay on “Cain” and “getting gain.” The fuller narrative seems to have exerted its greatest influence on Mormon and Moroni, who witnessed the destruction of their nation firsthand — destruction catalyzed by Cainitic secret combinations. Moroni, in particular, invokes the Cain etiology in describing the destruction of the Jaredites by secret combinations. The destruction of two nations by Cainitic secret combinations stand as two witnesses and a warning to latter-day Gentiles (and Israel) against building up these societies and allowing them to flourish. “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.” — Proverbs 4:7 Etiologies are stories of origins.1 The biblical account of Cain and Abel offers a story of origin for the name “Cain” (Genesis 4:1) and [Page 116]an account of the beginning of murder — homicide and fratricide — in this world.

  • “Which Enoch Are You?” Genesis 5:18-24 Tuesday Bible Lunch October 17, 2017
    “Which Enoch Are You?” Genesis 5:18-24 Tuesday Bible Lunch October 17, 2017 Introduction: There are two Enoch’s in the Bible. The first Enoch is in Genesis chapter four. This Enoch was the son of Cain (Genesis 4:16-17). This Enoch was the more spectacular by contemporary standards. The first city mentioned in the Bible is named after him (Genesis 4:17). I imagine that he was the talk of that generation. The second Enoch in the Bible was the son of Jared (Genesis 5:18). His brief biography is only six verses (Genesis 5:18, 21-24; Hebrews 11:5; Jude 14). The first Enoch mentioned in Bible, the son of Cain, was well known. In the great honor roll of faith chapter (Hebrews 11), the first Enoch was passed over. It is the Enoch the son of Jared that is mentioned (Hebrews 11:5). Question: Why is the second Enoch the one included in Hebrews 11? 1. The second Enoch “walked with God” (Genesis 5:22,24). Walking implies progress. He did not walk with God and then stand still. Each day he was nearer to God. He was weaned from the ways of the world. He did not walk alone. He “walked with God. 2. The second Enoch “pleased God” (Hebrews 11:5). We are not told that he pleased people—sometimes hard to do. We are told that he pleased God—something all of us can do—by faith (Hebrews 11:6). Conclusion: Walking with God ends well. Enoch, the son of Jared, did not see death (Hebrews 11:5).
