The Narrow Lutheran Middle . . . http://amzn.com/B0066B1TFW
The following is from the free chapter / pdf . . . "Reason is not light but darkness when it rules as queen over the revealed Word of God"
(Page 1) In religion and theology there is something of a parallel to Aristotle’s search for the middle between two false alternatives, between an overemphasis on some aspect of a truth at the expense of the rest of the truth. Any number of false doctrines are the result of falls off the narrow middle road into ditches on either side of the truth in the middle . . .
(Page 7) The sad fact that Luther experienced before the Reformation was that pastors and theologians knew Aristotle better than they knew Paul. Aristotle, of course, knew nothing of the revealed Word of God. For Aristotle, reason was queen, yes, even a god. In Luther’s day, Aristotle’s very reasonable-sounding philosophy was imposed on the Bible so that whatever the Bible said was forced to fit into one of Aristotle’s categories. The result was that church teaching often appealed to fallen reason but contradicted the apostles and prophets. As brilliant as Aristotle was—and arguably no one outside of the household of faith ever used reason more brilliantly than he—his philosophy has no place as queen in the temple of God. While Aristotle’s use of reason in the formation of logical categories can be helpful in organizing the truths of the Scriptures, his philosophy is no substitute for the light of the gospel. Reason is not light but darkness when it rules as queen over the revealed Word of God . . .

Hymns
Eph 5:17-20 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit. Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Col 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.

Faith and Good Works
Faith without Works is Dead, Jas 2:14-26
It is impossible to please God through works without faith: "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Heb 11:6

Just worry about what God thinks. Don't worry about what people think. Keep all of your focus on God. It's what He thinks is that's important. Set Him as our highest value. As long as I'm ok with God, everything is fine. The verse that says to consider others more highly than yourself, is talking about our behavior towards others.

The Exercise:
To "be transformed by the renewing of your mind" (Ro 12:2) and to "take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ" (2Co 10:5)
1.) Think and speak these truths throughout the day
2.) See, hear, and sense Jesus saying these truths to you
3.) Visualize what you look like when you manifest these truths, especially in the context of where you tend to manifest your "old self"
4.) Copy and paste them from the xls file into the reminder software of your cell phone, desktop calendar software, or PDA, to be reminded of at least one of them per day
5.) Give more authority to the Word of God than to your own thoughts
"For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." (Heb 4:12)

The schizophrenic hears 40 voices all at once, and considers all of them to be equal.
Atheist lawyers have made us into a schizophrenic culture, by removing the 10 Commandments everywhere, taking prayer out of the public school, and legislating that all views are equal.
This cannot be true - All views cannot be true and equal. If something is only partially true, then it's a lie.
Jesus *never* lied. Jesus was perfect, and holy, blameless, and without sin. He said:
"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." Jn 14:6 NIV
"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." Jn 15:5 NIV
"My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me." Jn 10:27 NIV
The first Commandment: "You shall have no other gods before me." Ex 20:3
An example pertinent to today: We're under the New Covenant, and despite what some say, we're still under the Biblical moral law. God gave a commandment to Moses against adultery. Jesus strengthened it, and emphasized that a man and woman became one flesh in marriage . . . In the New Testament, we learn that it's all about the thought life.
The Bible is the Word of God. You can hang your life on every word of it. Amen.
