1 | what about the K J V | Rev 3:10 | kalos | 25003 | ||
Hank: You make an excellent point, one with which I agree completely. Further, it seems to me that if one were to carry the false principle of solo Scriptura ("me and my Bible" as opposed to the true sola Scriptura, "Scripture only") to its logical conclusion -- i.e., if it were true that all I need is my Bible and the Holy Spirit and nothing else -- then why bother with any English translation? If ALL my understanding of the text is provided by the genie in the lamp (i.e., God), then if all I have is the Greek text (with no knowledge of Greek), then surely God will miraculously enable me to read Greek and I won't need ANY English translation.) No one in this thread has advocated solo Scriptura (me and my Bible), but this is a closely related issue and I took this opportunity to comment on it. kalos |

2 | what about the K J V | Rev 3:10 | Reformer Joe | 25006 | ||
"SOLO scriptura"? I love it! Did you make that up, and if so, may I have permission to use it every day for the rest of my life? --Joe! |

Joe: I can't take credit for "SOLO Scriptura." I heard the term recently on Christian radio, but I don't remember which preacher said it. But I love it. People who think they can go into isolation with nothing but their Bible and come out with perfect understanding of every doctrine in the Bible -- these people kill me. If that theory were correct, then how does one account for the people who put it to the test, yet come out disagreeing with others who have done the same? Wouldn't all the solo Scriptura people agree with each other, if this method really worked? Duh! Merely holding to this irrational notion proves the ignorance of the person who does so. kalos |
