Trajectories, Hermeneutics, Sexual Ethics, and Ecclesiology
Byhenry February 16, 2014
Reading Chris Seitz on the Biblical Crisis in the Homosexuality Debates (by Alastair Roberts) reminded me of three things I already believed: It is very dangerous to try to develop hermeneutics while wrapped up in a debate on a particular topic.
