Doc, You can't just shoot down an idea because some other group might loosely agree with it. That is bad logic and very misleading to others reading your post. You have tried to lump me in with other religions in an attempt to discredit me. Anyone should be able to see the flaw there. For example, you believe that Jesus Christ came and died for sinners and that believing on Him is the way to be justified and go to heaven. Well, if I recall correctly (and I do since I have read the book of Mormon) that the Mormons believe the exact same thing. Does that mean you are a heretic or cult leader because one of your doctrines happens to coincide with one of theirs? I can give you more examples if necessary, but I think one is enough. If you want to point out an error in what I have written, please do. I am always looking to learn. But don't use silly arguments that don't hold up in an attempt to make me look foolish. To answer your question, I don't affiliate with any particular theological disposition or denomination or whatever. I am a follower of Jesus Christ. I don't claim to have all the answers, but I do know the Way, the Truth, and the Life. I don't even agree with all the theology of the church I attend. I am not trying to line up with any predetermined theology. I am trying to line up with Christ. jamison |

Hi, Jamison... No ad hominem implied. I was simply making the observation that that accusation regarding theology driving one's exegesis, while asserting one's own freedom from such presuppositions, coupled with the soul sleep teaching, are shared by those three cults. You know the old adage: if it quacks like a duck, if it walks like a duck, etc. Frequently we get people on the forum from these and other aberrant groups. (I never quite understand how they can sign up and promise to abide by the forum standards.) They also tend to be pretty monothematic. Hence, as I perused your upwards of twenty-five posts, I just had to wonder. So you attend a non-denominational church committed to the sole authority of Scripture? Might I suggest that you add to your profile, so that we might better know who you are and where you're coming from? In Him, Doc |

Hello Doc, If you meant no ad hominem, then I take you at your word. It did seem that way to me, but I have been wrong plenty of times before. I have never asserted my own freedom from reading the Scripture in light of my theology. I merely stated that I recognize that I do. Something many do not admit. Yes, my friend. My non-denominational church believes in no other inspired Word of God than the Scripture. As you and Hank have requested, I will get something in my profile. jamison |
