2. SEBTS Page Lecture - Fisher Humphries September 28, 1988

Description:
Fisher Humphries was Professor of Theology at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. Fisher Humphries is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:14). A hymn is played (0:15-3:07). A word of prayer is given, followed by another hymn (cut) (3:08-5:53). Humphries is introduced, and his message focuses on the Bible and spiritual formation as the second part to his previous message on the church (5:54-8:02). Humphries greets his audience and reads from Psalm 119 (8:03-9:24). He speaks of four ways Scripture forms our lives: it provides a Christian worldview, offers the experience of God’s reality, demonstrates how to live in ordinary life and in a community, and reveals our true identities (9:25-10:07). Scripture is effective in providing believers with a worldview that can be based on astronomy and geography, psychology, and history (10:08-13:08). Scripture impacts the Christian worldview: it assures us that the world is not shapeless, informs us that the world is not how God intended it to be, protects us against idolatry, teaches us to live in anticipation, and transforms the meaning of history (13:09-19:50). Humphries then speaks of how Scripture is a catalyst for experiencing God with a focus on conversion, prayer, guidance and strength, friendships, and Biblical stories (19:51-24:49). Reading from Proverbs, Humphries reinforces how Scripture gives practical guidance for living our lives (24:50-33:03). He also discusses how Scripture illustrates how to live in a community (34:00-35:49). Lastly, Humphries mentions how Scripture reveals our true identities and finally closes with a summary of the four main points of his lecture (35:50-41:19). A word of prayer is given followed by a hymn (41:20-43:43).

3. SEBTS Page Lecture - Fisher Humphries September 27, 1988

Description:
Fisher Humphries was Professor of Theology at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. Humphries is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:28). Two hymns are played (0:29-4:37). A word of prayer is given, followed by another hymn (cut) (4:38-6:44). Humphries is introduced (6:45-9:43). Humphries thanks the Seminary for allowing him to speak (9:44-13:27). Based on 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24, Humphries’ message concerns sanctification and spiritual formation (13:28-15:51). He provides four examples of believers’ self transcending impulse towards God: freedom, the need to understand, a desire for happiness, and the impulse to love and be loved (15:52-17:44). All these impulses are fulfilled in God, as spiritual formation (17:45-18:33). Humphries states that the best analogy of spiritual formation is one’s influence over another without manipulation (18:34-20:53). He plans to speak on two means of spiritual formation, the church and the Bible; the lecture on the church is for this day’s message while the one on the Bible is for the following day’s message (20:54-23:25). The church is both an institution and a fellowship, but God is more concerned with the people not an organization (23:26-24:53). Humphries explains that the church as an organization consists of people who contribute to spiritual formation and asks whether this is true of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) where opposition exists (24:54-27:23). He discusses Liberal Protestantism, Fundamentalism as a response to the former movement, and finally Evangelicalism which resulted due to the problems of Fundamentalism (27:24-32:42). However, disagreements in the Evangelicalism movement have occurred because it did not plant strong roots (34:43-38:31). Humphries compares the SBC, with its unstable foundation, to this movement; it also needs to strengthen its roots (34:38-38:31). He does say that God has and is using the SBC for spiritual formation despite its flaws, as the church has never been perfect and the church’s mission continues to be performed (38:32-40:19). He reinforces that the church is the people of God and a place of spiritual formation (40:20-42:47). He concludes with a recitation of the scripture reading from 1 Thessalonians (42:48-43:51). A word of prayer is given, and a hymn ends the service (43:16-46:13).
