1 | Authority of the bible in question? | 2 Tim 3:16 | EdB | 94393 | ||
Pastor Glenn I'm not speaking for gbennett and I hope he agrees with me. I think he was talking about things like using scripture to support or deny the use of tongues today. Both sides support their argument on the Bible and both I believe are doing it in honesty. Both sides have great theologians that I respect but obviously both can’t be right and probably both are off just a little. Many feel the Apostles settled much of this very similar to how they settled the Jersualem council debate on Gentiles in Acts 15. A lot of the apostolic verbal traditions were lost from the protestant church when they declared sola scriptura. As I said today we argue an divide over them. I don't think gbennett was giving opportunity to debate homosexuality or anything like that. His point I believe is did the church lose anything in the Reformation or not. I think we did. As I said you can argue you only use sola scriptura today but there are people that oppose you and claim the same thing. If a true analysis could be done we would see both sides used other than Sola Scriptura and didn't even know it. They viewed a word, the verse construction, or understanding under some preconceived notion the other didn't and vice versa. EdB |

EdB, gbennett76 said this: "Christians are free to wear tattoos, eat shrimp, pork or rare meat, wear polyester-cotton blends, seed their lawns with a grass mixture, and get their hair cut. But homosexuality is somehow taboo. " (ID 92988) Beware of sheep's clothing EdB, some posts belong elsewhere, not on this studybibleforum. Pastor Glenn |

Pastor Glenn I jumped on one aspect of what Gbennet said. Others have pointed out that he is totally off the wall in other aspects. Again what I said I stand on but I also said that since the Apostolic verbal traditions are so distorted and corrupted the only thing we can depend on is the Bible and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide us.

I understand what you were saying EdB. But, it is sad that this person has yet to acknowledge the authority of scripture. Gbennett76 posts strawman arguments without telling his sources. That argument falsely says that we have only two scriptures on which to base sola scriptura, but I like what Jesus said: Matthew 5:17 "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. John 5:39 You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. 46For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me. 47But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?"

Pastor Glenn I'm sorry I ever responded to any of gbennets posts. I read them as not containing any agenda other than asking did we lose something when we decided to disregard Apostolic verbal traditions and go only to Sola Scruptura. I now see he posted the question as he did to question the validity and inspiration of scripture. All scripture is valid, all scipture is inspired and all scipture rightly divided should take precedents over any thought or belief. I regret I allowed myself to play into his hand. By him questioning scripture I now know he is completely wrong in his ideas and thoughts. Sorry EdB |
