Statement by Bro. Steve Pixler

Quote from Bro. Steve Pixler:
“Image and glory are always interconnected, and when humans start stealing glory, they’ll start perverting image.”

Agree or disagree? That is your privilege.

Hmmmm....


What does it mean to "start stealing glory?"

And whose and what image is being perverted?

Sounds rather ambiguous and something a minister would then apply to any pet doctrine they have.

It seems like an attempt to sound fancy but in reality, doesn't make much sense.

If someone else had made thsi statement, you would praise it. Think about this:

When I read this, a Biblical reference stood out in my mind. In 1 Kings 12:25-29, Jeroboam wanted to keep the people from going up to Jerusalem to offer sacrifices, so he built two calves of Gold. If you study this out, you will find that this was actually supposed to be a visible image of Jehovah. However, since Jeroboam’s intentions were purely selfish, he sought to steal the glory and perverted the image of God. Anytime we try to use our own ability to represent Christ, the image of God becomes blurred and people start to see us instead.

Really? Why? Why would I automatically be against Steve Pixler? For you you know, I may be good friends with him so stick it, Standard man!

Really...."Image and glory are always interconnected"??? Really? Says who? Where is that in the bible? What glory? Man's glory? God's glory? Sorry, it just makes no sense.

I think so. Makes sense to me on a couple of levels
