What is the Bible? (III)

And then Seerveld writes

The Bible is a Holy Spirit-packed script to be spoken which works faith in people's hearts and generates human life in community, a coumminity of people who thankfully congregate to search the Scriptures together for wisdom to be obedient to God in whatever they are gifted to do on earth (II Timothy 3:16-17, Proverbs 1:1-7, Romans 12:3-9, I Corinthians 12, Acts 17:10-12)."

I should really start reading some more Seerveld.

I'll second David's comment. Thanks, Paul, for this series of thought-provoking Seerveld. I just noticed that Seerveld's wonderful use of language is not unlike that of Eugene Peterson whose Regent College "Under The Green Roof" lectures often resonate in my mind. I wonder if they share any background.
