1 | Why are there disagreements... | 2 Tim 2:15 | kalos | 109621 | ||
With the Holy Spirit indwelling believers, why do we not all come to the same conclusions on the interpretation of various passages of Scripture? Why are there disagreements on the interpretation of Scripture? | ||||||
2 | Why are there disagreements... | 2 Tim 2:15 | Hank | 109938 | ||
Hi, Kalos - Why disagreements? Possibly the logical place to begin is by taking a closer look at the biblical ignorance of those who do some of the disagreeing. I've taught Sunday school classes for over a quarter century and have been observing the goings-on on this Forum for nearly three years. Both these experiences have led me to the firm conviction that basic Bible knowledge is lacking. I've read hundreds of posts on this Forum in which two things are happening at the same time. On the one hand, the person is vigorously and fiercely arguing some point of theology. And on the other, it is quite apparent that he is still in biblical kindergarten. He is swift to disagree in no uncertain terms, but he simply doesn't know what he is talking about. He is not rooted and grounded in Scripture, only in opinion and dogmatics, both of which are vulnerable to error. ........ George Muller (1805-1898) was a Prussian-born evangelist and philanthropist who founded the Bristol orphanages in England. What follows is an excerpt from his works. His wise words are worthy to be studied with great care: "The vigor of our spiritual life will be in exact proportion to the place held by the Bible in our life and thought. I solemnly state this from the experience of fifty-four years. The first three years after conversion I neglected the Word of God. Since I began to search it diligently the blessing has been wonderful. I have read the Bible through one hundred times, and always with increasing delight. Each time it seems like a new book to me. Great has been the blessing from consecutive, diligent, daily study. I look upon it as a lost day when I have not had a good time over the Word of God." ...... --Hank | ||||||

Hank I think we have a perfect example right now on the forum. The lastest post by "compudex" id 109937 is a vivid illustration to one of the problems on this forum. People can't read, or they jump to conclusions without completely reading the post. EdB |
