Hank My guess is you somehow just knew I wouldn't remain silent on this issue. :-) Let me add my two cents. I agree with Rowdy that "Biblical truth" is MORE than a verse here and a verse there. We have to consider the "whole" Bible. As you know we have fought many battles with people proof texting their own ideas. The Pharisees where fantastic quoting doctrine based on scripture but they missed the whole thing. In some cases there are various multiple passages that seem to form a doctrine yet when viewed in light of the all scripture that cobbled together doctrine is seen to be false. I have in past learned to be very distrusting of people making points by quoting scripture, I find they are often promoting a false doctrine whose whole basis is formed by yanking a verse here and verse there proof texting their thoughts. I want to hear what people say in light of all scripture judging not that what they say is based on a verse found in the Bible but rather does what they say go with the overall flow of the whole Bible. I can make a case that everyone should marry a harlot. Hosea 1:2 When the Lord began to speak by Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea: "Go, take yourself a wife of harlotry And children of harlotry, For the land has committed great harlotry By departing from the Lord." You would then say but God is speaking to Hosea. to which I would reply Acts 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: And off we would go and I would be solid ground as far as verses but way way off in theology. The real answer to this problem is, since this is a Bible study forum let us study the Bible and not push denominational doctrine, personal doctrine, or opinion. And when we do state opinion let everyone understand it is merely opinion and open to scrutiny of the overall teaching of the Bible. Having studied denominations and church infighting I come to the conclusion most positions do find support in one, two or even numerous verses but when held up to the light of the whole Bible most positions are straying from overall flow of the Bible.

EdB, I think hank just want to remind us that if we have answer or claim, we should back up scriptures to prove it. If I understand him correctly I think it is a good descipline to a members that love to give thier opinions, conlusions and not what really Bible taught. God bless, |
