You (plural) have no need for anyone to teach you. RIGHT! You (singular) have no need for anyone to teach you. WRONG! BradK: Thanks for posting "Interpretive Principles", which is the RIGHT way to interpret Scripture. The WRONG way, consistently used by many Forum members, is to read the text and assume that whatever comes to mind first must automatically be the right interpretation. No Hyper-individualistic Understanding As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him. (NASB) 1 John 2:27 '"You have no need for anyone to teach you." Both "you's" are plural and refer to the believing community as a whole; there is no ground here for a hyper-individualistic understanding of the Gospel wherein the views of other believers and the gathering of believers together are considered unimportant' (Jewish New Testament Commentary, David H. Stern, Jewish New Testament Publications, Inc., 1992) * * * * * * * * * * * * * www.seekfind.org Christian Search Engine The mission of SeekFind.org is to provide God-honoring, Biblically-based, and theologically-sound Christian search engine results in a highly accurate and well-organized format. |

Great Posts Brad and Kalos! The liberals have been pushing this line for a long time: The meaning of a passage is the impression the reader gets from reading it, rather than what the writer intended. Can you imagine what our legal system would be like if we interpreted documents that way? (Of course, that is actually what is happening. This is why they eschew the "founder's original intent.") Thank you, again, guys! In Him, Doc |
