I've been a Christian since 1985, and a member of East Heights United Methodist Church in Wichita since 1994. My theology is Wesleyan/Arminian, but I don't think all Christians must share this view.
I believe that the Bible is inspired but not inerrant, that it was written to teach us about God and not the physical universe.
I believe faith is not an intellectual pursuit but a transformation of our entire being.

Did Abraham leave Haran before or after his father died? I may just wait and see if the community starts to favor one over the other. Then I'll pick the other. |

Did Abraham leave Haran before or after his father died? I received two equally good answers, and I'm not sure which one to pick. |

Did Abraham leave Haran before or after his father died? @MonicaCellio I'm interested in any possibilities, including "Acts is wrong". |

Should The Creation Story in Genesis Be Understood as Metaphorical? What part are you asking whether it should be understood as metaphorical? The "six days"? Adam and Eve? For some peope, the answer might depend on which part you are focusing on. |

If synoptic parallelism is a valid hermeneutic, is the Holy Spirit = the Spirit of the Father? Or you could ask it like this: When Matthew uses the phrase "Spirit of your Father", does he intend it to be synonymous with the Holy Spirit? |

Should The Creation Story in Genesis Be Understood as Metaphorical? If you're really looking for arguments both for and against, you're probably better off splitting this into two questions. |
