I hope I listened as well. It was very encouraging. I'm glad you have someone like this you can talk to.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07306854704766653209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987271399653590272.post-87426216413471777952010-10-22T16:24:59.600-04:002010-10-22T16:24:59.600-04:00Eric,

Such are like the proverbial "hen's teeth" here, rather scarce.<br /><br />I am blessed to have one such brother who visits regularly, and is spending the day with us tomorrow. I will share your encouraging words with him.Aussie Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16199918171163666399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987271399653590272.post-76730042013350056942010-10-22T15:24:29.279-04:002010-10-22T15:24:29.279-04:00Alan,

That assumption is usually used to defend church practices that they enjoy but that cannot be supported biblically.<br /><br />The conversation was great. I'm glad to see that I'm going to be able to stay in fellowship them. Knowing these guys, I'm not surprised.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07306854704766653209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987271399653590272.post-39203266496808242492010-10-22T14:36:18.748-04:002010-10-22T14:36:18.748-04:00Eric,

The sy...Eric,<br /><br />Your lunch sounds like alot of fun!<br /><br />The synagogue-church relationship is an interesting one. There is both correlation and contrast in the relationship. I've done some research in that area for my dissertation. It is very interesting that some of the aspects of the synagogue (leadership especially) are mentioned by the NT writers when talking about the synagogue, but never when talking about the church.<br /><br />-AlanAlan Knoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07452247058550736803noreply@blogger.com
