Hey Bob,

Just found your blog the other day, and I’m excited about the material there. Thanks for your ministry. I was checking out your links and found that your link to doxologue actually links back to your own blog. I did find doologue through Google though. thought you might like to know. I tried to email you, but for some reason the address did not work.

I think that it is helpful to try to be the most discerning regarding our own actions and to be as gracious as possible when analyzing the actions of others.

1) God sent His Son into the world to die for our sins
2) Jesus freely laid down His life of His own choice
3) Jesus was killed by the actions of sinful men ( Acts 2:23

Hi Bob,

On the subject of this, I just noticed something yesterday in a song that I love. I’m really keen on biblically accurate songs, and I’ve always used “In Christ Alone”.

But I noticed yesterday the line, ‘Light of the World by darkness slain’. What do you make of that?

It seems to be suggesting that sin or the devil killed Christ. But I think the Bible teaches that God Himself killed Christ in punhisment for human sin. Is this line theologically weak?

What’s your take on this?
