Great thought. Short answer, no. Haha. I didn’t think of that.
-
The difference is that we are humans dealing with humans and there is a multiplicity of worldviews that the Christian is directly confronted with in sharing the gospel.
-
That’s because He IS the Living Word…Jesus IS the Transcript…the Logos of God the Father.
-
He does use references. “It is written…”
-
What do you mean by transcript? Jesus quoted scripture multiple times.
-
Jesus IS the transcript. He is the Word made flesh.
-
Okeeey… That’s kinda like saying: ya ever notice what a Godly example God is?
-
What did he ever apologize for?
He read scripture at the temple, and quoted to satan in the wilderness ?♂️??♂️??? -
Absolutely and I think your observation of this is absolutely awesome. Great OP.
-
I wish more people took notice of this.
-
We use transcripts because we are imperfect vessels.
-
He also wasn’t a calvinist.

There is an apologist for the early church named Origen. He wrote a point by point counter to a pagan’s claims against Christianity. Initially he didn’t want to write this work called Contra Celsium. He said [paraphrase] I will copy the first apologist Jesus. As he said nothing to pilot I will not respond to Celsius.

wait a minute. What do you mean by a “transcript”? He read from the word of God all the time as recorded in Luke 4:17-20, “And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read. 17And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written,
18“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives
and recovering of sight to the blind,
to set at liberty those who are oppressed,
19to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”20And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him.”
