1 | High View of Scripture | Deut 29:21 | justme | 244031 | ||
Doc. I have talked with Tony and he has changed a lot over the years. I am unsure that his red letter Bible holds up to his earlier statement. But I am sure on one thing I have a very, very HIGH view of Scripture. Justme |

2 | High View of Scripture | Deut 29:21 | DocTrinsograce | 244041 | ||
Dear justme, The phrases high or low view of scripture is a theological term, not a point of characterization or criticism. People of either persuasion may very much love the Word. A high view of scripture is how we describe denominations who hold to all the doctrines of sola scriptura. A low view of scripture is how we describe denominations who have some other authority that they hold as having equal or greater place for binding their consciences. This can be many other things from a formal magisterium to personal experience. I don't quote people so much as someone with whom I share all doctrine, or because they are particularly pious... rather, when people express and expose the Word of God in a particularly perspicuous fashion, they are worthy of being quoted. After all, in church history there have been so many who have laboured in Bible study and teaching... far beyond what I have done. Consequently, I am proud of this wonderful treasure (Eph 4) given to us by our Lord... if I were to always express my own thoughts: it would reveal great hubris; and it would be of far less value. In Him, Doc |
