1 | Holy Spirit baptism and tongues | Mark 9:24 | EdB | 10813 | ||
Boy you got all of that out of that passage huh? Your hermeneutics sure were busy. Richilou your distorting, taking liberties, and putting meaning and words in people’s mouths at will. I would imagine with your hermeneutics you could get just about anybody to say just about anything you wanted them to say. I have read many white papers and dissertations on this subject and never seen the liberties taken you have managed here. If as I suspect you got this from Dr Thomas Edgar WHO IS A CESSATIONIST, you have to understand his was a foaming at the mouth reply to Dr Jack Deere’s book Surprised by the Spirit. It was written to recoup loses the movement incurred when Dr. Jack Deere a professor at such a prestige citadel “for cessation of the gifts” as Dallas Theological seminary suffered when Dr Deere jumped ship and wrote his book. Even the most ardent cessationist would find fault with this interpretation of that passage. I think it safe to say Benjamin Warfield that set the standard for Dallas Theological seminary’s teaching that Tongues were not for today would blush at such hermeneutics. John MacArthur who also is very much against tongues would not accept the interpretation of this passage you just presented. Would you expect me? | ||||||
2 | Holy Spirit baptism and tongues | Mark 9:24 | richilou | 10832 | ||
You are very inconsistent with your critic of mine. You said that you have never seen the approach I had and at the same time, you say that you suspect that it could be the one of Dr. Edgar. So, what I noticed at 100 percent sure, is that you have never read the book of Dr. Edgar. So, read and after you will speak more solidly. And for the rest, study the hermeneutics in the times of the apostles and you will find that it is not an idea taken in the air... I conclude with this remark: Do you think you have all read what has been written on a subject? | ||||||

I can tell by your writing your upset and I apologize. Please do not take this to be an attack on you or your beliefs. We disagree and that is good iron sharpens iron. However what you wrote I have to respond to. I already said I never read the book. I was actually complementing you by saying that discourse had to come from Edgar and not you. From our previous discussions I thought you displayed more reason than that. I investigated the book after you mentioned it and I now understand the motive for it’s creation. It is something I care not to read. If it was a honest study on this subject I would have probably read it but since it is nothing more than a rebuttal to Dr, Jack Deere’s book it would serve no purpose. Incidentally I wasn’t real impressed with Deere’s book either. No I haven’t read everything on this subject, but I have read enough and understand the principals of hermeneutics (I’m starting to get into that word) enough to know the discourse you presented will not withstand pure textual scrutiny. You totally ignored Paul's statements in Chapter 12 and 13. In chapter 13 Paul again talks of tongues of angels. |
