On the Shores of Faith and Knowledge

Paul and the Purpose of Scripture
There’s so much disparity between “faith” and “knowledge” in the modern church, with the former (“faith”) given primacy of place among those who claim to be spiritual, and the latter (“knowledge”) placed on a pedestal among those who claim to be wise. “Faith” is often esteemed for those of the Spirit, while “knowledge” demeans and diminishes the work of the Spirit. After all, Paul said, “We walk by faith, not by sight” (2 Cor. 5:7). I preach and teach in a lot of churches, and in several of them I’m deemed to have a lesser faith because I have gifts of knowledge. Two millennia from the time of Origen, the tension between the historical realities of the biblical text and its modern significance still lingers.

Michael Bird: The Gospel in all Loci of Systematic Theology

Evangelical Theology: A Biblical and Systematic Introduction
“I have generally believed that some theologians should be routinely slapped in the face with a soggy fish in order to try to smack some exegetical sense into them. You can only watch someone struggling to push a round peg into a square hole for so long before you finally snatch the peg from them and say, “Just give it here; I’ll do it for you.”
