Welcome to Open Commentary |
OpenCommentary.Com is a community for Christians to collaboratively
share their real life experience associated with individual Bible
verses.
Building up of the Body
Here we enable you to post commentaries associated with any Bible verse, and optionally include any amount of helpful information:
- associated with the sharing: book and verse, translation version, language, related verses, reference URL,
- associated with the sharer: name, contact info, church
affliation, parachurch organization, personal URL, favorite Christian
site, personality, etc
Doing so as a community will allow each of our small amount of sharing
to add up to cover the whole Bible many times over. Furthermore, we
will be able to find related postings, personalities, and kindred
spirits within the community.
As a double-edge sword, verses of the Bible comes to life and take on
special personal meaning, whether in our moments of inspiration, result
of personal Bible studies, hearing of a sermon, or during discussion at
small group gatherings. The insights we receive are worth sharing and
preserving, most effectively done online, and hence the mission for
this website.
Evangelism
The current post-modern relativist culture no longer believes in or
seek the Truth that can be found through the Bible, hence easily
disregards the role of Faith as merely a mental or intellectual
transformation.
Lacking answers in life, people now frequently ask "does it work?" As
Christians, we can most powerfully share our faith by demonstrating our
realistic everyday walk: showing that Christ is real in our everyday
life. If we can share testimonies and associating them with various
biblical verses, we will show that Christ still matters, and God's Word
is alive.
Given that the word "love" has been overused and now devoid of its
meaning, in last century Christians speak of "sharing one's faith", but
this century we must "share our hope", via realistic evidence and
testimonies.Only registered users can write comments. Please login or register. Powered by AkoComment 2.0! |
