Our God Reigns The confession of the New Perspective on Paul??

Talking to my best friend, who is a Lutheran, we talked about how his Lutheran Church has the Book of Concord as a guide for a confession. Then, we talked how the Reformed have the Confessions, such as the Helvetic or Canons of Dort.

Then he asked me, what sort of document did I have as a guide.

I paused for a moment, and answered, "What St. Paul Really Said"!!!! We had a laugh, but N. T. Wright's little book is so well crafted that it may end up being a confession of faith. Just as the Confessions mentioned before were, and are still attacked by its opponents, this little book has suffered the same.

Nevertheless, chapter three of the book has really opened my mind as the real meaning of this song, so let us sing!!!!
