It has come to my understanding that there are concerns with Jack Miller`s teachings on Sonship and the New Life Churches. While I am not an advocate nor opponent to these theological teachings, I must say, in process of taking this course in seminary at this time, it is producing a harvest within my very soul, looking introspectively at my own heart and its tendency to live as an orphan even in light of the glorious gospel and God`s promise to make us sons and heirs to Him.
whatever the concerns may be, and I am familiar having looked back at the posts, this is a helpful tool nonetheless in not only learning the lyrics (theology and the study thereof) but also as Paul says, hearing the music (the Christian experience) and putting the two together that we may experience the joy that Christ has for us.
In writing this post I suppose I am opening this up to critique and I suppose that is ok, but my point is to encourage us to live out our theology and experientially know the joy that comes from living it out. I am in no way insinuating no one does that here, it may just be me and in any case I thank you all and seek your prayers that I may continue in the joy of God`s salvation always keeping the gospel before me and knowing that the grace that saved me is the same grace that sustains me and will see me to glory. God did it all! Out of his glorious works of grace may my works, perfected by faith alone in Christ alone, flow.
