“We don’t want to wrestle with what The Bible actually reveals because we’re uncomfortable with honestly acknowledging that, “The Bible is confounding!” while at the same time saying, “The Bible is the Word of God (infallible and applicable for life and doctrine).” In other words, we conflate ‘what feels sensible and clarifying’ with perfection, inerrancy, and special revelation. …So we default to flippant agreement (e.g. Isaiah 1:13), and we refuse to embrace the tension and beauty that God offers in His stories. We actively avoid the opportunity to ponder the paradoxical story, and the enigmatic Author of such a story.” – Anonymous PCA Ruling Elder
