I stand corrected sir - it's an unproven hypothesis at best.

"I thought she was going to have a coronary,"

Oh, I really doubt that. A bit of hyperbole, indicating an article with a political agenda.

"She's like, 'This is not true!"'

OK, Valley Girl. And did Elizabeth pursue the entire context of what is ‘true’ and ‘not true’? Or, did she simply shut down and cease functioning (mentally) at that point?

Thanks, metmom, for the beep.

Definitely “B”.

I suspected that since it didn’t fit with the rest of your post.

But thanks for the clarification anyway.

I would think, yes.

"I thought she was going to have a coronary," Mule said of her daughter, who is now 16 and taking college courses in Houston. "She's like, 'This is not true!"'

Only a liberal would get the vapors when they see something they don't like or disagree with.

This mother is, like, teaching her daughter herself? And the mother is, like, how old?

Chronologically? Or, maturity in years? (as if I really had to ask)

I saw some coward in the article said that the phrase about the Christian worldview being the only correct worldview was due to an editing error and would be removed.

“I am not ashamed of the Gospel...”

I was somewhat shocked by that statement by BJU, of all groups.

I think the correction was with the statement that believing in young earth creation was the only way to get to heaven.

“History of Life” chapter that a “Christian worldview ... is the only correct view of reality; anyone who rejects it will not only fail to reach heaven but also fail to see the world as it truly is.”

Here was the statement. I do think they need to clarify it. You won’t fail to get to heaven because you don’t have a “christian worldview” of origins.

It’s not a “salvation essential”,

but the Word is essential to know what is expected of you as a believer,

and that when you start saying this or that part of the Word is “wrong” and that modern secular interpretations are right,

you’re stepping on a slippery slope of self-defining (Gen 3:5) what you want to believe of God’s commands.
“I will hide thy Word in my heart so that I might not sin against Thee”. Well, which part? The “true” part?

Agreed. I think Bob Jones just needed a reword with the “not get to heaven” part.

The way it was worded wasn’t clear.

It really isn’t even technically having a Christian worldview which gets you to heaven. A lot of people have that, which is nice, but if you don’t have Christ, all the Christian world view in the world won’t help.

“but if you don’t have Christ, all the Christian world view in the world won’t help”

Amen.
