Dear King, You wrote, "They may be derived from the Bible, but they are still derived based on man’s own understanding and interpretation of the Bible. From where I stand, they are man made doctrines. Kindly shed in more light why they are not man made doctrines." (sic) I suggest that you get a Strong's Exhaustive Concordance and look up the Greek words G1318, G1319, G1320, and G1321. Read each and every reference in context. Write down the references, and next to them write down what you learn about doctrine from that passage. If you do this, you will have a complete Biblical definition of doctrine; i.e., a soundly doctrinal definition of doctrine. :-) The text of Scripture is a communication from God to man. It is the Word of God; i.e., the Logos, from which we get our English word logic. The Word is the God's self revelation (Hebrews 1:1-2). It is His means of working redemption in the lives of the elect (Jeremiah 23:28-29; Luke 8:11, 21; Hebrews 4:12-13; etc.). In Him, Doc |

Hi Doc, Been away from the internet for some time. I got the SEC as you suggested and I did look up G1318 - didaktos, G1319 - didaskalia, G1320 - didaskalos and G1321 - didasko. Thanks man, and may I ask what you do, as in your profession. I know this is a Bible study forum, but I just got curious. I hope I am not being too personal, and I will understand should you choose to answer this question. Stay blessed, King T! |

Dear King, I am a software engineer. I have been in this field for over 35 years. My turn to ask a question: What are the other two languages you speak? In Him, Doc |

Hi Doc, Been away in the farm. Setting up some project somewhere out in the bush and far from the internet. Judging by the number of years in your field, I'm truly humbled. I know we are Christian now, but in my "culture" it is disallowed to speak up to an elder like I did, even when one thinks he is right. Anyway for the common good of the Gospel, disagreements are inevitable. I hope I did not sound disrespectful in any way. Well, I speak several languages grouped into two; that is, Zulu, Xhosa, Siswati and Sindebe - grouped as Nguni, and Setswana (Tswana) and Sesotho (Sotho) - grouped as Sotho-Tswana. These are grouped according to their similarities. Of course there are several others that I understand and speak though not with fluency. English will be my third after the two group categories. Of course I am in Southern Africa and a farmer. Thank you for asking and sorry for the delayed response. I see you had been extremely busy in the forum. May the good Lord richly bless you with abundance for all the good work that you are rendering to His flock. Stay blessed, King T! |

Sawubona, King... I have a couple in our church from South Africa who are missionaries to many parts of the African continent. They, of course, speak Afrikaans -- but I do not know if they speak other languages. Their accent, reminds me of the Dutch accent. I can say a few words in Swahili and Ewe. However, as you know, I am really only a monoglot, struggling to be understood in my own native tongue. The efforts you have put into knowing these many languages is a blessing in many ways. What kind of church do attend there? How may we pray for you, your peoples, and your nation? In Him, Doc PS Feel free to write to me personally. My email address is at the bottom of my profile. |
