1 | Prove the will of God is the Word of God | 1 Peter | BradK | 146626 | ||
Hi Mitch, If I may interject here. The problem is that you're not listening closely to what Searcher has said! As has been wisely observed by others, we need to be careful to not say what scripture doesn't say. In other words, there is no scripture that says "Gods' Word is His will". You're drawing a faulty conclusion by doing so, much like the mantra that "God always heals." For instance ( and I'm purposely being silly), IF Gods' Word is His will, then in Matt. 27:5 Judas "... went away and hanged himself." I know this is not your intent, but taken to its' illogical and faulty conclusion this is what you you're in effect saying. If I might inquire, who have you learned this from and how would you DEMONSTRATE from SCRIPTURE that this is sound doctrine? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Greetings BradK! I remember listening to a sermon by John MacArthur on expository preaching. In it, he quoted someone who told him that his approach to Scripture was to simply take everything as applying to everyone. MacArthur responded, 'Well, that doesn't make much sense'! It seems that so much bad theology and false doctrine is based upon a lack of ability to understand context (as I know that you are aware). Noah was commanded to build an ark, I wasn't! Israel was promised certain things in their covenant with God, but they don't automatically apply to me. Further, so many people make broad principles that make no sense if carried to their logical conclusion. If physical healing is part of the atonement, then no Christian would ever get sick or ever die. If God always gives back ten fold, then TV preachers should send me 10.00 so that God will send them 100.00. Yet, they keep asking me for 10.00! ;-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
