But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.” 2 Corinthians 4:7. let your light shine through your cracked pot. Ring the bells that still can ring, Forget your perfect offering, there is a crack in everything, That's how the light gets in.

What say you to the “New Perspective on Paul?” Here is Doctor. N.T.Wright’s spin on his books.
So let’s have your take on this. What do you think?

Be very cautious with NT Wright. He is not an evangelical, and very sound evangelicals have critiqued him to the point of calling his stuff “another gospel.” He has issues with substitutionary atonement and imputation of righteousness by Christ onto believers. Here is a link with a critical point of view:

I agree with your statements about Wright. I put the post up to see what type of response I would get. Mr. Wright is included with the group who are pushing the new Perspective on Paul. One such person who has gone out on a limb is James D. Tabor who has written Paul and Jesus.
In his preface he states this: “ In other words, the message of Paul, which created Christianity as we all know it, and the message of the historical Jesus and his followers , were not the same.” It goes on with this drivel. We are in a very dangerous time period and should be alert to such error for profit.
