1 | Paul's extra-biblical teaching inerrant? | 2 Tim 3:16 | Searcher56 | 8047 | ||
Lionstrong, was any of Paul's extra-biblical teaching inerrant? I believe Scripture is 100 percent God breathed. But, Paul and others taught other things that were not recorded in God's Word. My answer to Hank's question is that is is possible that his teachings not recorded in the Bible could have errors ... But, we do not know, since we do not know what he said. No one is correct all the time in their teaching all the time. Most of the teachers will agree with that. |

2 | Paul's extra-biblical teaching inerrant? | 2 Tim 3:16 | Lionstrong | 8069 | ||
Greetings, Steve; ......... What do you mean by "extra-biblical"? Do you mean different doctrines that are not taught in Scripture? I don't believe Paul taught anything beyond what Spriture teaches. What He did do, however, was teach God's people "the whole purpose of God" according to Acts 20:27. ......... Your statement, "But, Paul and others taught other things that were not recorded in God's Word" can be taken to mean that the apostles taught different doctrines than those found in Scripture. This notion is unfounded and must be false. In his Word, God has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. Pet 1:3 ....................... I think I know what you meant to say when you wrote, "so we cannot say what his errors were." What you wrote says that Paul did if fact make mistakes in his teaching, but we just don't know what they were. Your wording here is unfortunate. ........ Since Paul and the other apostles were redeemed just like us, they were capable of mistakes, as Peter's mistakes were recorded in Galatians. Outside the infallable Word, all we concede is only the possiblity of mistakes and not the actuallity. ............. So, on the one hand we're not claiming sinlessness for the apostles as the Roman Catholics have done with Mary, and on the other we maintain the infallibility of God's inspired Word. |

Lionstrong, what I mean is we know that not everything Paul taught is recorded in Scripture, because we do not have the words he said in Acts. He may of made errors also in the other letters he wrote - we know of at least two missing letters to the Cornithians. So the bottom line is that while what is recorded in the Bible is inerrant, what else he said (or wrote) may not be. If this is not what you are saying (or agree to), plaes let me know. |

WHY EVEN SPECULATE ON IT?? | ||||||

Yes, Nolan, why speculate indeed? Scripture is profitable for (1) Teaching........(2) Reproof........(3) Correction.......(4) Training in righteousness. IT IS NOT GIVEN US TO SPECULATE UPON! I ask, Is speculation upon Scripture correctly handling the word of truth? (2 Tim 2:15). Is it showing to God's Holy Word the honor and respect it so richly and surely deserves and, indeed, demands? Aren't vain speculations vain? May I again remind us all that this is supposed to be a Study Bible Forum, not a Speculate on the Bible Forum? He who has ears to hear, let him hear! --Hank | ||||||
