Theology Thursday

* Correcting the Corinthians: Join Bob as you hear Paul demanding intolerance of sexual immorality within the church. Then ponder Paul's insistence that we judge all things, great and small. And for those who believe that Christians are no longer under the law, how do they explain Paul's command to flee immorality? Then hear the surprises that come with the New Testament's most thorough discussion of marriage and divorce, celibacy and intimacy. What caused Paul to give his converts hints on how to interact with Peter's converts? Also, considering that the Jerusalem Council explicitly reinforced the Mosaic Law's prohibition on the eating of meat sacrificed to idols, why would Paul give permission to Christians to eat a meal in a restaurant located inside an idol's temple? Finally in this material, Paul instructs his converts to win those under law, if need be, by willingly submitting to the law. 

* Weinstein Reversing the Clinton Thing... And Roy Moore: Of the many confirmed kgov.com/predictions over the decades, one that Bob Enyart got very wrong was that a 1992 sexual accusation against Bill Clinton would prevent him from winning the presidency. Since Hillary defended her predator husband though it has been open season on women. It is truly wonderful that women victims are getting their day in court, so to speak, and that the Clinton Curse is being reversed. Now however comes the accusations by four women, then teenagers, of a 30-something Roy Moore flirting and kissing, providing alcohol to the oldest of them, and with the youngest, of groping and more. Judge Moore has denied all of this, alleged to have occurred when these women were 14, 16, 17, and 18. The accusations apparently come from women who do not know one another; who had not even gone public but were found by reporters; some of whom have contemporaneous or early witnesses to their accounts; and some of whom have consistently voted Republican. The Bible is a criminal justice textbook and it says that two or three witnesses establish a matter. True, there is more to it than that, but often, that is mostly what matters. Yet plenty of conservatives, who have eagerly greeted all the group accusations against liberal men, will now tend to behave like Hillary with a knee-jerk accusation against these women. Certainly Christians should be more concerned about the truth and about ending the epidemic of men using women and girls, than they are about the partisan obsession of losing a Senate seat. [Today's BEL radio program does not address this matter.]
