Greg Carey: My Old Bible: An Honest Look at Young Faith

I find this most sad, destroying the faith, that this author grew up with, demeaning the Bible rather than supporting it. But modern liberalism will do anything rather than submit to God! And that is the final reason for the objection to "wives submit yourselves to your husbands" any more than he husband both accountable and submitting to God.

To deny infalliblitiy is to deny the existance of God, for if he does exist, does care he must by definition be capable of communicating to his creation in a medium that is untarnished by man's many failures in maintaining his transmission of the Word of God

What Brought Mary to the Cross

Why then was Mary at the cross? It was because of her love to Him who had redeemed her from Satan's bondage. Jesus possessed her heart, and it was that which drew her to whatever place He went, and hence, as she had been identified with Him in life, she would also be identified with Him in His death. We have two glimpses of her at the cross, one before His death, and one afterward. John alone records the former: he says, "Now there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene" (John 19:25). The beloved disciple also formed one of this company. At first, all the disciples, in the terror of the moment, when it was the hour of His enemies and of the powers of darkness, had forsaken their Master and fled. John had been recovered from his fear, and also Simon Peter in measure, for he "followed Him afar off into the high priest's palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end." But alas! Peter went in trusting in his own strength, and, notwithstanding the warning he had received, fell into the awful sin of denying his Lord. Of the other disciples not a single word is said. How pleasing then to the heart of the Lord it must have been to see these faithful four beside Him at His cross. He had felt it deeply, when in Gethsemane, that the chosen three could not watch with Him one hour. Now He was comforted in that there were four who were sustained to face the power of evil, which for the moment seemed to revel unchecked and triumphant, to overcome their own unutterable sorrows, as they were lost in the contemplation of His sufferings and grief, and to encounter all and every danger in their intense affection for Him who had become everything to their souls
