1 | Do all TEACHERS teach the truth? | Lev 16:34 | Bill Mc | 20207 | ||
Pastor Kwaku, That was my very point to begin with. As you have said, one should be well-versed in the Scriptures. My original proposal was that a man who is able to read will be able to understand the Bible through the enablement of the Holy Spirit if that is all he has access to. The premise being advanced here is that God has had different men down through the ages who He has given a 'deeper revelation' of scripture to than what is available to the 'average' Christian. So I asked what, aside from the Bible, would be necessary. The answer I got was teachers. But what right do teachers of the scriptures have to add to or detract from the Holy Spirit's revelation of the scriptures. And how does one guage whether one is being taught truth or not. I think that the question ultimately has to go back to the fact that we, individually, must know what the Bible says and means in order to guage anyone else's interpretation. In Christ, Bill Mc |

Thank you for proving my point. You wrote: "My original proposal was that a man who is able to read will be able to understand the Bible through the enablement of the Holy Spirit if that is all he has access to." If merely the ability to read equals the ability to understand the Bible through the Holy Spirit is true, then does this truth apply to everyone EXCEPT teachers? Also, in my previous post, the one with which you disagree, I did nothing except quote Scripture. You can't be disagreeing with me, because I didn't write anything of my own. That only leaves the quoted Scriptures -- what part of the Scripture do you not agree with? |
