Cody Cook (8 KP) rated Holy Scripture: Revelation, Inspiration & Interpretation in Books

Holy Scripture: Revelation, Inspiration & Interpretation
Donald G. Bloesch | 2005

8.0 (1 Ratings)
Book Rating
An approach to Scripture that emphasizes inspiration while also arguing for a more nuanced view of it. Would probably be safe to call Bloesch an infalliblist as opposed to an inerrantist. While the book seems to drag at times, there are some excellent observations and points made in regard to reading Scripture for the points it is actually trying to make as opposed to reading it with a wooden literalism that can tend to obscure the text and create dogmas out of incidental material. I didn't find myself agreeing with everything the author said, but in any case I did find the book to be interesting and agreed with a good deal of his points.

I am Groot. I am Groot. I am Groot.

I am Groot,

We are Groot.

Initially viewed as one of the riskier entries into mnarvel's (then) expanding cinematic universe starring, as it did, a talking raccoon and a talking tree and taking its inspiration form one of the lesser-known Marvel comics (admit it, who'd heard of them prior to this film? Unlike, say, Captain America?) this proved to be one of its biggest hits and made a star of Chris Pratt (as Peter Quill, aka StarLord), helped - in no small part - by a killer soundtrack, a bit of comedic leanings and - of course - by the brilliant Groot!

Not quite as good as Baby Groot from the sequel, though ...
