Peter Enns Quotes
We Understand Today That The Physical Universe Is Bigger And Older And Operates Very Differently Than How The Biblical Writers, And All Other Ancient People, Thought. Many Christians Stumble Over This, Thinking They Are Showing Respect For The Bible And Obeying God By Making The Biblical Story Mesh With Modern Science, Or Rejecting Modern Science Entirely In Favor Of God's Word. But There Is No Need To Feel Embarrassed Or Unfaithful By Acknowledging That Ancient Writers Wrote From An Ancient Mind-set. When Ancient Israelites Wrote As They Did About The Physical World, They Were Expressing Their Faith In God In Ways That Fit Their Understanding. It Shouldn't Get Our Knickers In A Twist To Admit That, From A Scientific Point Of View, They Were Wrong. That Doesn't Make Their Faith Or The God Behind It All Any Less Genuine.
