Dear Ed, Well, to be honest, the opinions men who lived Godly and Spirit filled lives in the past, who were well studied in the Word, and whose lives were well examined by the church over the years... just provide far superior opinions. Their least studied opinions will far excel our best studied ones. Although, at your behest, I have quoted men from Greek Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and even an atheist and pagan philosophers or two, I would just as soon quote people in my tradition. Would you like me to find some quotes of people from your tradition? I have already quoted from the AOG position papers. Is there anyone you'd prefer that I find to quote? I guess the question has to do with "mere opinions." When the clear principles of Scripture are expressed in varying ways by students of the Word, then is that not similar to citing the Word itself? It may not have "thus saith the Lord" in front of it, but if it expresses the very Word Christ, then I would even quote Benny Hinn and Jimmy Swaggart! It is the Word that I love! In Him, Doc PS Sorry, yes, let's go to the proof texts. |

Quotes from established and respected theologians and Bible scholars on Biblical subjects are usually edifying and encouraging. However when a quote is a slam against another accepted denomination or their teaching, they are merely opinions of man and to post them as an innocent quote is wrong. My concern is this is becoming a common occurrence. |
