1 | ...All other ground is sinking sand... | Jer 6:10 | DocTrinsograce | 243521 | ||
"If some were to teach doctrines contradicting an article of faith clearly grounded in Scripture and believed throughout the world by all Christendom, such as the articles we teach children in the Creed -- for example, if anyone were to teach that Christ is not God, but a mere man and like other prophets, as the Turks and the Anabaptists hold -- such teachers should not be tolerated. For they are not mere heretics but open blasphemers... With their blasphemy such teachers defame the name of God... In like manner, those [should not be tolerated] who teach that Christ did not die for our sins, but that everyone shall make his own satisfaction for them. For that, too, is blasphemy against the Gospel and against the article we pray in the [Apostles'] Creed: 'I believe in the forgiveness of sins' and 'in Jesus Christ, dead and risen.' Those should be treated in the same way who teach that the resurrection of the dead and the life everlasting are nothing, that there is no hell, and like things, as did the Sadducees and the Epicureans, of whom many are now arising among the great wiseacres. We are told that when the holy fathers at the Council of Nicea heard the doctrine of the Arians read, all hissed unanimously, and would not listen or permit any argument or defense but condemned them out of hand, without disputation, as blasphemers. So, in this case, there ought not to be much disputing; but such open blasphemers should be condemned without a hearing and without defense, as Paul commands (Titus 3:10): 'A heretic is to be avoided and let go, after he has been admonished once or twice'; and he forbids Timothy to wrangle and dispute, since this has no effect, except to pervert those who hear (1 Timothy 6:20). For these common articles of all Christendom have had hearing enough. They have been proved and decreed by the Scriptures and by the confession of the whole church, confirmed by many miracles, and sealed by the blood of many holy martyrs. They are testified to and defended in the books of all the doctors. They need no more discussion and clever interpretation." --Martin Luther (1483-1546) from a lecture to a class (what we would consider upper division) he taught doctoral students at the University of Wittenberg |
