When moral issues become a political disagreement, you are further from biblical truth.

Yes. Sound theology is a relief!

NEW EPISODE: Dom and Benj come together to discuss and respond to the Mark Driscoll fiasco from a few weeks ago. Mark was invited to a mens conference in which something happened that he marked as unbiblical. He was subsequently kicked off stage. What does Scripture have for the Church when it comes to calling others out? What of the context, if it is public? How do we determine if it is public? This and more is reviewed in the episode.

From S. H. T. Page. (Not familiar with this author.)

I instantly thought of two things after reading this. First, deliverance ministries. I witnessed a pastor praying with a member some years ago at a “Deeper Life” conference. They called to attention a “spirit of ____” to command it be banished so this sister in Christ no longer was oppressed by or had ___. This “spirit” had even responded, spoke through this Christian as the pastor was praying and commanding with God’s power and authority.

The second thing that came to mind was “name it, claim it.” I think both are close relatives. And neither, to my knowledge, are anywhere found in Scripture. Ironically it could be found in writings of those who have made experience the core of truth rather than the Word of God.

Faith involves intellect.
It is neither blind or irrational.

The Enneagram harms? It does. Here are the ways it does:

1. It is restrictive. According to the Enneagram there are only 9 personality types. While most argue the Enneagram is non-restrictive typing due to the use “wings” (i.e. other numbers not as prominent but significant enough to be exemplified in a person), there is no further understanding of a persons personality traits or type outside of those bounds. Not every situation will allow a person to exemplify their type. One number type can occur in the grocery store having to wait in line, but that number does not mean much if the grocery store is being robbed while the person is being used as a human shield. No person should ever be restricted in how they need to respond or react in any given situation. A robbery may be an extreme example but it is a good example in light of discord. When spouses fight or children rebel, how one type is meant to respond is restricted to that type while a different response is what is needed, and desperately.

2. There’s no room for change. Once you are typed, that becomes the focus. For example, a certain type may not show affection the way their spouse would appreciate the most and claim it is their Enneagram type. “That’s just the way I am,” a sad excuse when the husband, for example, excuses their behavior (or lack thereof) while the wife just accepts it because… well, that’s how each of their typing is cast. That is a toxic relationship in which neither are willing to live for the other sacrificially but rather remain stagnant. No person should assume relationships are all about themselves. It is about how they can serve, not be served. Or excused.

3. There is encouragement for disunity, especially in the church. Simply put, we all have a bias. It doesn’t mean we are horrible people (unless it is racist or hateful, to be clear). But for the ease of this post: I have a bias toward sea food. I just don’t like it. I also have a bias toward Italian food. I love it. So I’m going to cook one food more than the other. We may not realize our bias because it is masked with kindness. My family knows I don’t like sea food but with more focus on the prominent Italian food, the bias is overshadowed and does not need mention. Likewise, we will gravitate toward other similar typed individuals and avoid others who are typed differently, if not clash. This is typically true regardless but what the Enneagram does is encourages to edify or strengthen the self by surrounding yourself with similar typed individuals. “But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up” (Eccl. 4:10). Not one typing can handle everything that comes, no matter how many of that typing their are. We need more than people like our selves in our life.

4. It becomes a substitute. And this is not like switching ingredients in a recipe to make it more healthy. It is dangerous on two accounts. First, it is no substitute for actual therapy. Therapy takes time too. The Enneagram cannot accomplish what dedicating to therapy can. Second, it does not identify who you are in God’s eyes. That has so much more value than any personality test can claim. With that, there is no scientific, data driven sources that support the Enneagram as such. There is also no biblical support for it. The Bible needs no supplement. Christianity needs no syncretization to help a Christian with their faith. In fact, there is more biblical support that we are commanded NOT to sync with anything beyond or outside of Scripture to edify our faith or to draw closer to Christ. I find it beneficial to mention at this point that the Enneagram is not ancient either, as some false teachers have claimed. Its origins are in occult practices such as automatic writing.

The argument in defense of the Enneagram rises then with what I have presented. “Then it is being done wrong” because “it works.”
First, this is when it is done correctly as the Enneagram has intended and according to how it is structured. The four points above are in response to how the Enneagram is designed. Second, if it does work, that is no reason to adhere to the Enneagram. He**in works. It does exactly what the user wants it to do. That does not make it right. Because the Enneagram may work does not mean it is biblical.

In conclusion, the Enneagram hurts. It may be subtle and take time to even be noticeable that it has caused hurt. But we must take notice. The sooner the better if we are involved with it in any degree. But once we notice we must repent. Confess — and out loud — that it is Christ who is center and who is transforming us. The Enneagram claims it reveals Christ who is already in us, in some veins. That is not found in Scripture. But what is already in us we need Christ to enter and transform us.

Dom and Benj continue their walk through on the book of Judges, continuing from chapter 13 where they left off last week.
If you didn’t get a chance to listen to the first part, be sure to get the first half in!

From “Judges: Such a Great Salvation” by Dale Ralph Davis, pp. 96-97.
“There is nothing amazing about grace as long as there is nothing fearful about holiness.”

Don’t confuse a platform with God’s will/purpose for your life. For example, being or doing something - a job, sports star, millionaire - is not His will. That is the platform.
His will is for us is to Glorify Him, spread the Gospel.
