I'll be around most of the evening and checking in often, so if I don't get right back it's probably because of dinner or such.

What kind of questions will depend on the people. You'll almost certainly be asked to give testimony of your salvation. Harder questions might be around how you think of the Trinity or pre-destination/Calvinism.
Others that you might consider: How can you reach younger generations for Jesus (outside the church walls)? Why do you want to be a pastor/minister? Tell us about a time you had to deal with conflict between people. Lots of other areas, including questions s of pastoral or priestly authority, women in leadership roles, membership of peiple who continue in sinful lifestyles whether it be homosexuality, drunkeness, etc |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
What is the significance of the Trinity? God The Father - The creator of all things the originator of our Faith, the Author of life. Jesus Christ - Wholly God, Wholly man. The part of the trinity that man can relate to most closely. Present participant in creation, and the perfection of God's plan of salvation revealed by the word, because He is The Word The Holy Spirit - The part of the trinity that indwells the believer. The dove, that descended on Christ, the voice that inspired the bible writers and the flame that danced on the tongues of the apostles. The Spirit's filling empowers, inspires and directs the believer who will listen. The Spirit restrains evil on the earth and convicts of sin both sinners and saints alike. |

Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. 15 ¶Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: Okay, this person is saved, so why is Paul praying that this person would receive MORE of the Holy Spirit? |

Matthew 5:17 ¶Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. This appears to be a theological crossroads statement in the Bible, how would you handle this hand grenade? |

Romans 7:7 ¶What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead. 9 For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. 10 And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death. 1 Corinthians 15:56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. The New Testament presents the law as the power of sin. How would you explain that? |

Discuss three New Testament texts which directly bear on the theory and practice of apologetics.
What part did Paul's allusion to pagan philosophical poets play in his defense of Christianity? Relate the Biblical doctrine of God's sovereignty to the task of apologetics . What part does the internal testimony of the Holy Spirit have in apologetics? |

Well, I survived!!! The panel was much easier on me than I expected and prepared for. They asked theological questions, questions about personal study and questions about my call & family. They were encouraging and uplifting. I am blessed. Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement. Ordination ceremony to be held June 11th at the church where I serve.
I'll get back this afternoon and finish answering the questions left for me. |

If you could only have two of the books of the Bible which two would you pick and why?

Matthew and James. Matthew would give you everything you need to know to be saved, James would teach you everything you need to know to behave as a Christian
