1 | Can we live life without sinning? | Rom 6:12 | stjohn | 209534 | ||
What have I read that was written by Finney? Enough to know he was a heretic! Much of what was written in my last post to you my friend, is in Finneys own words, and "quoted" directly from, Finneys own writing. I think I'm done with line of discussion. It's going in circles as do many of your posts. For instance, you wrote in post 209516 in response to Doc; "I fail to see how, in reading my post, you made that assessment that I am building doctrine on experience;" Well, you wrote in post 209291 "I believe I have met at least two people in my lifetime who have "perfectly kept" the first commandment," I believe this what called personal experience. So, pleas stop going down that path of accusing people of reading into what you say because this is NOT what is happening here. Pay attention to what YOU say, and you will have a lot less honest aptness for nonsensical argument. Good day to you sir. John |

John, please note: 1. I'm just wondering if you read Finney's works or just what others have quoted and said about Finney. No offense was intended. 2. Unfortunately, you have misconstrued the context of my statement. I presented my experience of what I believe, not as proof, but as an example (and only in answer to Doc's reference to his experiential). Nevertheless, we should admit that experience (to whatever extent) does play a role in what we believe. 3. In any case, even if I never met one whom I thought to be living a blameless life (Doc’s phrase is “moral perfection”), I would still believe it is possible because of how I’ve come to understand the Bible. 4. FYI: Your posting gives me impression that you're upset. |

Lookn' The life-works of Finney have been soundly denounced by orthodox Christianity. Upset? no.. just sad... :-( God bless John |

Maybe you can explain what you mean by "orthodox Christianity". As far as I can tell, there are Christian theologians, scholars, and historians who would disagree with such an assessment as here presented against Finney. |
