Status Updates From Mere Christianity Study Gui...

Chapter 11. It dismisses Lewi's first point talking abut evolution since it is a distraction from his main point. How a man is changed in the new way is different in a number of ways. It is not genetic, Christianity has spread a lot quicker, unlike change that happens in natural processes, it can be resisted to an extent. Until we follow Christ we are like fetus not left the womb. Christ our new personality.

It is easy to get muddled about the Christian life by focusing on things such as service to community that you lose sight on what it is really about.
"Christian Mrs. bates should stop telling non-Christian Mr. Furkin to "Go to Hell" conversely he should try to avoid ending up there?" It may be easier for those who are poor in niceness to enter heaven, because they are not self righteous.

A god outside time. The study guide uses further explanations of what came first in creation, heavens or Earth? Why the word create used 3 times? Why the second day not say it was good (I don't know the answer to that). Study guide acknowledges that how Lewis describes the "human mass" is weird. Touches on a question I still don't quite understand, of why Lewis said there can't be many sons. Fallacies come in pairs.

Going further into the difference between making and begetting is dependent on what type of thing we are talking about. You beget the same type of thing as yourself. Theology like a map, practical. IN different sciences there are different levels of initiations, a geologist initiates everything a rock does nothing, a zoologist has shared initiative, in theology God initiates with us.

More questions related to what was read and some look at the appendices. The questions asked I can mostly agree with Lewis on but not on every point.

End of Book 2.

The companion to the book mere Christianity that is being discussed in Bible study.
