He does not list the quote you are looking for but supplies this similar one,<BR/><BR/>"It never seems to occur to many modern teachers that the primary business of the teacher is to study the subject that he is going to teach. Instead of studying the subject that he is going to teach, he studies 'education'; a knowledge of the methodology of teaching takes the place of the particular branch of literature, history, or science to which a man has devoted his life."<BR/><BR/>Maybe it's might be around there somewhere?Jeremy Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02552780649310262425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1143840584668625162006-03-31T13:29:00.000-08:002006-03-31T13:29:00.000-08:00Dan:I knew I'd never figure out who said that quot...Dan:<BR/><BR/>I knew I'd never figure out who said that quote, so I was very happy with myself for recognizing the rubber band ball.

Fuller hated Lindsell's books exposing their defection, but if he were here today, he'd just be nodding and saying, "Well, duh, told you."<BR/><BR/>When a man puts himself, and his judgment, over the Bible, you can draw a line in many directions. All bad.<BR/><BR/>And the thing is, the prof himself may just have shifted at the base, but still cling to a lot of traditional Christianoid notions. But it's his students who apply his own core principles more consistently, and thus shift further.DJPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16471042180904855578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1143829522293226922006-03-31T10:25:00.000-08:002006-03-31T10:25:00.000-08:00i would like to know what a 95 BMW sounds like on ...i would like to know what a 95 BMW sounds like on an I-pod personaly.(Ohh. its BWV) And dont be to hard on phil he is just trying to stay hip trying to make seemingly general Christian lyrics like "I'm not a perfect person" fit in to his sermons and lessons.Screaming Piratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04166108711656605278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1143829163159469332006-03-31T10:19:00.000-08:002006-03-31T10:19:00.000-08:00Coyote: "Just thinking out loud through Phil's i-p...<B>Coyote:</B> "Just thinking out loud through Phil's i-pod playlist here."<BR/><BR/>:-)<BR/><BR/>Yeah, right.

Harrison (Baker: 1949, reprint 1970), p. 23.</B><BR/><BR/>It is a book full of portraits from the gospel of John, including John the Baptist, Andrew, Peter, Nicodemus, Judas, Thomas, John; seventeen chapters in all. Good material; Harrison was a gracious man (I met him once) who believed the Bible. Perhaps you've used his intro to the New Testament, his shorter life of Christ, or other resources he's produced or edited.<BR/><BR/>Other little gems:<BR/><BR/>(On the man born blind): <BR/>"Jesus looked upn the man; the disciples saw a theological problem" (p. 118)<BR/><BR/>Several good ones form the chapter on the Samaritan woman:<BR/><BR/>"Where could one find a more powerful exhibition of the self-emptying of the Son of God than here, for the Creator sits exhausted under the glare of the created sun, with water underneath Him, but no means of procuring it" (p. 78)<BR/><BR/>"The Christian life, then, is like a lake that continues to pour forth its refreshing waters by an outlet, yet has no visible inlet to maintain its flow, its secret lying far below the surface in the hidden spring which bubbles forth its never-ceasing supply" (p. 82)<BR/><BR/>"The physician must sometimes hurt before he can heal. With simple directness, Jesus laid bare the woman's past without comment or open rebuke. He who was an authority on living water knew all about the life which needed it" (p. 83)DJPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16471042180904855578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1143827420443496892006-03-31T09:50:00.000-08:002006-03-31T09:50:00.000-08:00Gresham Machen wrote a NT Greek Text book i.e. to ...Gresham Machen wrote a NT Greek Text book i.e. to learn students learn the language.

Many are proud because they are more self-abasing than the next guy.<BR/><BR/>Humility isn't, "I'm a worthless worm." It's, "What do you have, O man, that you did not receive? And if you received it, why do you boast as if you didn't?" And then with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, and being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the spirit of the Lord.
