Marcion? hmm...

[Michael:D]

A collection of internet resources on Marcion and the early church. Very controversial stuff, but an interesting look into the guy who reportedly put together the first cannon of Christian scripture.

On Bereans:

Acts 17:11
New King James Version (NKJV)

11 These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.

I have included in this packet [pg.670] a reprinting of a rather excellent article by John Pavlovitz from his blog, JohnPavlovitz.com.

Why The Bible Shouldn't Be Worshiped

I know the title of the article may bring gasps of horror to many but I find this article to be a carefully considered answer to a question many (if they were honest with themselves) have wondered about.

The reason for posting this material is to spark a discussion - please feel free to leave comments below or plan to attend our Tuesday Evening Bible Study here at Mt. Zion General Baptist Church - you are more than welcome!
