Defining ‘Woman’ Starts with Humanity, Not Femaleness

By Filings on Thu, 03/31/22
Body

“Conservatives quickly memed Jackson, portraying her refusal to answer the question as clear indication of progressive nonsense. After all, anyone should be able to define what a woman is. The only problem with this, of course, is that we’ve struggled to define what a woman is for thousands of years.” - Hannah Anderson

Complementarianism: The Difference between the Apple and the Worm

By Filings on Tue, 02/08/22
Body

“people often confuse what the doctrine is with other associations that have little or nothing to do with the teaching. In short, folks confuse the essence with the accidents… .

By Filings on Wed, 12/22/21
Body

“Barr’s book is riddled with serious deficiencies. While there are areas Barr has identified as problematic that are problematic, she does not fairly explain or resolve them…. the faults in the book are grievous enough that they ought to lead both complementarians and egalitarians to find the book deeply dissatisfying.” - Jordan Steffaniak

Does It Really Matter Whether Adam Was the First Man?

By Filings on Thu, 11/04/21
Body

“The simple aim of this article is to show that, far from being a peripheral matter for fussy literalists, it is biblically and theologically necessary for Christians to believe in Adam as a historical person who fathered the entire human race.” - TGC

Our Most Destructive Assumption About Heaven

By Filings on Tue, 10/26/21
Body

“…a veteran Bible student asked if I really believed we would eat and drink in the afterlife. I told him yes, since Jesus said so. Visibly shaken, he replied, ‘Engaging in physical activities in heaven sounds terribly unspiritual.’” - Alcorn

Does “Breath of Life” in Scripture Mean an Unborn Child Isn’t Human Until They’re Born and Breathing?

By Filings on Wed, 10/13/21
Body

“…some prochoice religious groups argue that as Adam’s life began when God breathed into him, so each human life begins when the baby is born and takes his first breath. This demonstrates a misunderstanding of the nature of the unborn’s respiration.” - Randy Alcorn
