11. The Power of LimitsGy ö rgy Doczi “The art as well as the wisdom and knowledge of East and West alike testify that there exists a deep-rooted unity below the many surface diversities of this world. This unity manifests itself in simple proportional relationships that create patterns of harmonious wholeness out of the vast and often dinergically opposed diversities in nature, in the arts, and, at times, in the arts of living. “The etymology of the word whole comes from the Indo-European root kailo, from which also come hale, health, hallowed, and holy. The word hell, though of similar sound,, is of quite different origin, coming from the root kel. From this root come calamity, clamor, concealment, and calumny. “Whole, hale, and holy on one side and hell on the other express the ultimate potentialities in human life: good and evil. These ultimate powers, the divine and the demonic, are usually thought of as supernatural and are looked upon with awe. The word numinous has been used to describe such feelings, a word that comes from the Latin numen, meaning divinity or spirit, from a root verb meaning a divine nod or command of compelling power. “But numinous feelings are not the exclusive domain of the supernatural. Quite to the contrary, the marvels of nature awaken in us similarly numinous feelings...” pg. 133

15. Snake Handler Pastor Jamie Coots Of ‘Snake Salvation’ Dead From Snake Bite “A snake handler named Jamie Coots died from a snake bite while shooting a take on the reality TV show called Snake Salvation.” “Snake handling is loosely based on a New Testament story about the apostle Paul when he had just survived a shipwreck while being taken to Rome as a prisoner. Paul was bitten by a venomous snake known by the locals as being extremely deadly. But when Paul didn’t drop dead after simply shaking off the snake everyone was amazed. “But a snake handler like Coots uses the Bible passage Mark 16:15-18 as justification for their dangerous craft...” Posted: February 16, 2014

19. Worship in SongScott Aniol “Some argue that if the Bible does not address a particular moral issue, believers have complete liberty to do as they please. In other words, absence of biblical directive implies moral neutrality. If God had an opinion on a particular issue, they argue, He would have given His people instructions. Rather, morally neutral actions matter only with regard to the subjective motive or conscience of the individual. “Proponents of this view often appeal to Romans 14 and 1 Corinthians 8-10 and insist that anything not explicitly addressed in Scripture falls under the principles of Christian liberty set forth in these passages... “Such individuals argue that this position is a correct and consistent application of Sola Scriptura. Belief that the Bible is sufficient for faith and practice implies that God has given His people instructions in every area He considers morally important... Since believers are not given explicit instruction in certain areas, and since they are not supplied with an explicit process for applying the Bible to contemporary situations, such issues must be morally neutral.” pp. 4-5

20. Worship in SongScott Aniol “Others argue that the Bible applies to all contemporary ethical situations, and authoritative standards may be formulated with issues not found in the Bible. Such standards may be derived from proper application to equivalent situations... “Indeed, some would go so far as to say that proper Bible study is not finished until there is a 'transferring [of] what has been learned from the text over to the waiting Church,' resulting in 'dynamic application of the text to one's current needs.' “In this view, the Bible applies to everything, even those issues not explicitly addressed in the Bible. Furthermore, those who apply the Bible correctly may authoritatively assert the moral will of God in contemporary situations.” pp. 5-6

25. Worship in SongScott Aniol pp. 16-17 “It is important both to distinguish and to recognize the important relations between Scripture itself and the extrascriptural date to which we seek to apply biblical principles. Scripture is something different from extrabiblical data. But what we know of the extrabiblical data, we know by scriptural principles, scriptural norms, and the permission of Scripture. In one sense, then, all our knowledge is scriptural knowledge. In everything we know, we know scripture. To confess anything as true is to acknowledge a biblical requirement upon us. In that sense, although there is extrabiblical data, there is no extrabiblical knowledge. All knowledge is knowledge of what Scripture requires of us.” John M. Frame, “In Defense of Something Close to Biblicism: Reflections On Sola Scriptura and History in Theological Method, “ Westminster Theological Journal 59, 2 (Fall 1997), 273.

27. Worship in SongScott Aniol “Since the Bible is sufficient as an authority for all of life, the believer must strive to apply its principles even to situations not directly addressed within the pages of Scripture. When studying any passage of Scripture, the believer must ask, 'What would the original author say to contemporary situations?' He must correlate extrabiblical information about the contemporary issue and let the Bible's universal moral principles determine his stance toward that issue... “Indeed, anyone who claims to hold to the sufficiency of Scripture for faith and practice must be willing to apply the Bible's principles to every situation whether or not that situation is explicitly addressed in the pages of the Bible. To fail to do so is to deny the profitability of the Word of God.” pp. 17, 21

28. Worship in SongScott Aniol “I desire to gather pertinent information about music by which it can be judged worthy of such biblical principles and strive to come to God- pleasing conclusions. The Bible does not explicitly lay out instructions for Christians regarding their music. But since Scripture is indeed sufficient for all faith and practice, so it is sufficient to help Christians determine how they should view music in their lives.” pp. 21-22
