700 years Let s Talk About Sex Challenging the Church s Stance on Sexual MoralityDarell does his exegesis well He points out many things I have thought about the last several years I appreciate his down to earth writing style He grabs you and pulls you in He makes it easier for the average person to understand He brings up excellent points on scripture and our interpretations regarding sex and marriage He challenges us to rethink centuries of thought This is probably not new monogamy verses polygamy Polygamy was practiced in the Old Testament without any reprimand from God as a practice to replenish the earth with humans Did Jesus really end polygamy What does the Bible actually say about sex before marriage What does the end of the Law mean for us today in the light of the New Testament I am still thinking on some of the issues he brings up I encourage you to read this book and think or rethink some of the issues I feel it is a book that represents a worldwide understanding of sex and marriage from a new biblical understanding A historian noted a while back that there seemed to be a major shift in Christianity in the vicinity of every 500 years Could this book represent a part of such thinking The author emphasizes the goal of the two top commandments love God and love each other This is so important regarding our current and future lives English Very thought provoking Glenn presents some very good discussion points that we as the church should consider His insight on the original meaning of the Greek words and the culture at the time of these writing makes for interesting thoughts which should lead to provocative discussions English

For over a thousand years the Church was the sole interpreter of scripture Members of the Church had to rely on priests bishops and popes to tell them what the Bible contained With the addition of new translations and the Protestant Reformation came the belief that the Church no longer needed to be the intermediary between God and humanity Members of the church could interpret scripture on their own Martin Luther believed Scripture interprets scripture However the tools necessary for the average lay person to understand the original languages of scripture were not easy to use With advances in technology within just the last 20 years the average lay person in the Church can now research and find for themselves the meanings of words passages and books of the Bible Sometimes we find that the true meaning of scripture conflicts with Church tradition By using the Greek translation of the Old Testament Septuagint we can find out how certain words were used at the time of Christ We find out how the early church understood the words of Paul and other New Testament authors Throughout Church history the Greek word Porneia has been translated into the English phrase sexual immorality This began with Jerome in 382 when he translated it into the Latin word for fornication However a closer look at how the Jewish communities Jesus and the disciples understood Porneia reveals something much different A proper understanding of the word Porneia is critical and snowballs into a better understanding of what God demands from us His Church We have used the mistranslation of the word to condemn homosexuals shame people for sexual acts and control the people of the Church Glen Farell will teach you how to properly translate and interpret what the Bible really says about sexual immorality lust and homosexuality This book is the result of two years of studying the Greek and Hebrew words that have been the source of division guilt and shame for 1.
