Book description
Chris WebbвЂ™s The Fire of the Word is a book which does well compelling you to read scripture. The book has many practical suggestions with which to read scripture in a fresh way. Most chapters include seven days of suggested reading to work through in coalescence with the book. Webb is a very vividly descriptive writer who pulls you into his story with ease. I say story because much of the book is rooted in WebbвЂ™s experiences and challenges which he has sought to over come. Many of his proposals have been learned from experience. Webb stems from a much more liturgical and traditional branch of Christianity and does well highlighting some of the worthwhile ways in which Christians of bygone days have engaged scripture. While at times I found portions of this odd it was generally refreshing. Webb writes this book as a corrective against an overly academic or authoritarian approach to scripture which he labels the theorist approach. He proposes that one ought to approach scripture as a lover (pulling from the language and imagery of the Song of Solomon). On the one hand this does free anyone engage scripture and be confident that they are hearing from God. On the other hand, Webb perhaps over reacts to the theorist drawing a false dichotomy where a pursuit of balance might have served as a better solution.In one chapter Webb spotlights the medieval theologian and philosopher John Duns Scotus as a sort of founder of the Christ-centered reading of scripture approach. This would have been fine had Webb merely highlighted this element of ScotusвЂ™ teaching. Unfortunately, Webb goes on mention some of ScotusвЂ™ views concerning the necessity of the incarnation without adequately addressing this issue. In short, Scotus rejected the idea of that forgiveness could only be attained through Jesus being the incarnate Son of God. As this book is geared toward a wide audience I wish Webb had refrained from highlighting something so controversial and with wide ranging ramifications. It seems to me that in an effort to protect ScotusвЂ™ teachings concerning GodвЂ™s absolute freedom it seems Scotus failed to reconcile the words of Christ in the garden of Gethsemane. A practice of imposing doctrine which Webb had himself (appropriately) condemned earlier in the book. Webb admittedly and obviously draws heavily on MosesвЂ™ burning bush encounter. Yet, it seems, Webb finds himself stuck in an old covenant mindset concerning encounters with God. I regularly found myself wishing that Webb would better elaborate the biblical teachings concerning the ministry and work of the Holy Spirit. The same Holy Spirit who breathed the breath of God into the text of scripture (inspiring it) indwells believers sealing them for the day of redemption, as Paul writes. The Holy Spirit is always present in believers pointing them continually to Christ and working to further develop the fruit of the Spirit in their lives. Believers are welcome to ask God to feel His presence in a keen and refreshing way but believers always ought to know and be confident of the continued presence of the Spirit of Christ. The body and bride of Jesus never needs to plea DavidвЂ™s Psalm 51 prayer asking God not take His Spirit from them since believers are a part of the new covenant of ChristвЂ™s blood. Finally, a basic understanding of the distinction between a believerвЂ™s union with Christ and communion with Him goes a long way in helping bridge the chasm believers feel resulting from sin. All in all, this is a decent book. I understand and resonate with where Webb is coming from, but this book is at times too simplistic, lacking precision and perspective. I would, in the right circumstances, recommend this book to an individual but for most I think you can safely give it a pass.
