1 | What is meant here? | Prov 16:1 | oneistruth | 121385 | ||
Hellow , my name is Don . I have read a few of your postings and seem to be a little confused as to weather you are speeking your own opinion or someone elses . Your use of Scripture shows that you do a lot of reading , and this is good , yet you yourself say that you ( only think ) when you answere . Myself , I try very hard not to post my opinions , for the reason of being bias . I THINK that any thing we say is bias , therefore in error , when concerning the TRUTH ( and I did say WE )so I feel that we should let Scripture answere . Let the FATHER be the TRUTH and every man a lier , well who is the TRUTH . Is it man's opinion , or want to be decernment , or a dream he had , or an experiance , what ever . There is only one TRUTH , HE is the MASSIAH , the Son of the MOST HIGH . I wait your response , and ask that you not take this post as an attack , for it is not . A brother in the TRUTH , don | ||||||

And hello to you, Don. My name is Hank. Your concerns about allowing personal bias and opinion to have the upper hand are not unfounded, whether it is the Forum that you have in mind or whether it is preaching and teaching in the big world outside the pages of this Forum. Anyone who endeavors to teach the word of God by the written or spoken word in any environment has an enormous responsibility to preach the word, as Paul charged Timothy -- the word of God, not the word and opinion of man. On this Forum, in Bible study classrooms, in the church pulpit, one should teach nothing that cannot be authenticated by Scripture. It is always preferable to be able to preface one's remarks with "The Bible says..." than with "My opinion is..." Bible students want Bible answers, not the half-baked opinion of someone who has more need to learn than qualifications to teach. ..... Welcome, Don. --Hank | ||||||

Nice to hear from you Hank . I realize that I come across with what I say quite abruptly and do apologize . I study the WORD continually and have done so for many years , I usually stay away from any other sorse of teaching ( books , sermons , Theological ideas and concepts , new prophacies etc. ) If it is not in Scripture as far back as Genesis , and not as Isaiah 28 teaches refering to line upon line and precept upon precept , I usually throw it out . I rather throw mans words out , because for so many years I listened and trusted them only to find out that most do not have any meat in their teaching atall , in fact they are hardy drinking milk and claim they already have a calling . Thank you for your reply . don | ||||||

Yes, Don, I quite agree with you that there are a lot of preachers and teachers out there who proclaim a pale version of the gospel of Christ, if any at all. One has to be careful and do as the Bereans did, search the Scriptures to determine whether what he hears squares with the word of God. But we should not discredit all preachers, all sermons, all expository and exegetical books, articles, and commentaries. There are many godly scholars past and present from whose long and dedicated labors of love in Christ's vineyard we can learn much. But we must learn how to separate the wheat from the chaff. --Hank | ||||||

Yes Hank I agree with what you are saying , but as of now I have little trust in any mans wisdom including my own for it belongs to this world , unless we can show that it is of Scripture ( TRUTH ) that is being put across . I will give you an example . Many years I wondered why Noah cursed Cannan , and could not get any answers . I questioned many and none new the reason , or made up something to go along with what I had asked . Not so much purposely yet believing in what they offered was truth . Any way around that same time in my life I decided the heck with preachers and world teaching and sank all my spare time into reading the Scripture for myself , not being swayed by man or his teachings . The first 3 or 4 times I read through the Bible I got quite frustrated and let off some steam , then it came to me that we were to love the FATHER with all our heart mind and soul and seek all things . then prayer came into my life more and more , then answers started coming slowly , but they started coming and have not stopped . I read in Isaiah 28:9-14 who one could recieve wisdom ( line upon line , precept upon precept ) and who would recieve wisdom and why most would not . Then in Matthew 13:10-15 , parables are explained as well as who would understand and who would not understand , even though they have been told . Then in Colossians 2 I learned that all treasures were in the Messiah . Well any way , after many close answers to my Noah's question , it was answered as plain as day after reading line after line and being so close that finaly the answer appeared Leviticus 20:11 . Since then every answer has been just as clear , even though I had read it so many times prior , it did not stick out as it did when the ALMIGHTY answered . May be you already knew the answer to the question I was refering to , if so then you know where I'm coming from . I have many questions that Scripture has answered the same way , most will not like the answers because it will not tickle there ears . Sorry for rambling , and thank you for listening . A brother in the Messiah , don | ||||||

Greetings Don! I wrote a paper in college where I took the same exact position concerning why Noah cursed Cannan. :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
