But I wonder how much he does that at the expense of making Christ sound somewhat removed from our lives. I think Rev. 12:11 talks about how we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. There is room for our experience of Christ in witness.<BR/><BR/>In Acts, 2:32-33, Peter preaches this "objective" message of Christ crucified andd resurrected, but also of the Holy Spirit poured out on all flesh. The God who lives and dwells and works creatively among us today.Higginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12085316544288409146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10998855.post-66388649219200825162007-02-27T20:28:00.000-05:002007-02-27T20:28:00.000-05:00Don, great thoughts as always.

My reading of Barth's IV.3.2 provided the foundation for boldness in proclaiming the truth without feeling the need to sell my "story" or "the goods" to whomever is listening. I like how you noted that we end up witnessing to ourselves instead of Christ. That is one of the reasons why Barth refers to Jesus as the "true witness."jleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05020049133031356160noreply@blogger.com
