- First I want to say, this right here, this passage from Revelation 4 is why I’m here, not for clicks, not for popularity but this, I am casting my crowns before him:
Revelation 4:9-11
And whenever the living beings give glory, honor and thanks to the One sitting on the throne, to the One who lives forever and ever, the twenty-four elders fall down before the One sitting on the throne, who lives forever and ever, and worship him. They cast their crowns in front of the throne and say,
“You are worthy, Adonai Eloheinu,to have glory, honor and power, because you created all things-yes, because of your will they were created and came into being!”
David H. Stern, Complete Jewish Bible: An English Version of the Tanakh (Old Testament) and B’rit Hadashah (New Testament) (ref.ly/res/LLS...) , 1st ed. (Clarksville, MD: Jewish New Testament Publications, 1998), Re 4:9-11.
As Casting Crowns often says, “I am NOT the point. I am here to point you to THE Point.’
Shalom, dear friends! Today, we grapple with a controversial and challenging but important question: Why are many traditional pastors and parishioners so often reluctant to accept the cultural and language context of Scripture within the context of the time, place, author, audience, and culture of the writing? Ask yourself, why wouldn’t those things matter to gain accurate understanding of Scripture?
This question shines the light on deep-seated traditions, theological frameworks and religious apparatus, and the ways in which we’ve been taught to approach the Word of God.
