I’ve written two companion discussion papers for private study and reflection. They approach these topics from a canon-first perspective using a simple hierarchical framework (prioritizing the direct divine voice in scripture, followed by inspired voices, while treating later human commentary as valuable but open to re-examination).The papers are:
The Adam Contradiction: Re-examining Jesus as “Our Elder Brother” and the Doctrine of Adoption
→ https://write.as/quietcanon/the-adam-contradiction
The Foundations of Divine Sonship: Moving from Biological Literalism to a Covenant-Centered Restoration
→ https://write.as/quietcanon/the-foundations-of-divine-sonship
They’re offered only as resources for thoughtful personal study. I’d be interested in any feedback or discussion from those who read them.
