41 | Criteria for Permanence of Doctrine? | 2 Tim 2:15 | Tamara Brewington | 205852 | ||
Dear Val, What makes a doctrine qualify as being permanent to all people everywhere at all times - Christian doctrine is the facts about the truths of the Bilble regarding who God is and our relationsip with Him - all these things are unalterable truths from the Bible, thus permanence of a doctrine...

45 | What is the Permanent Element? | 1 Tim 3:16 | Tamara Brewington | 205844 | ||
Dear Forum Members, What do you think the permanent element of Christianity should be, the element that prevails? 1.The church as an institution constitutes the permanent element in Christianity by virtue of its traditions. 2.The emotional experience of the Christian believer constitutes the permanent element in Christianity because the world is moving forward and everything in the Bible that was expressed as a belief in things to come does not have to come true in order to embrace the emotional experience of Christianity. 3.The moral lives of the Christian believers constitutes the permanent element in Christianity by the demonstration of adherence to the teachings of Jesus. 4.The doctrine found in the scriptures constitutes the permanent element in Christianity. God's Day To You, Tamara |

Dear Val, You are presenting yourself to those who come to the forum as if you speak for the forum and somehow are in charge of it. You have been given far more leeway than anyone I have ever seen come here. Please stop. Okay Val, I apologize to you that I aologized to Bonnie saying that I was aologizing for only those who are sorry she was hurt, because everyone can apologize for themselves if they feel the need to all right Val? I have been insulted directly, not by you, I have been challenged to see if I am in compliance with what scripture says I should act like, again not by you, I have been told repeatedly that my Biblicaly based questions which are based on Biblical concepts are not scripturaly driven - the forum does non require that every question be driven by a scripture, it requires that every question by Biblicaly based. I take some mild issue with your concept here that I am presenting myself as if I speak for the forum and am somehow in charge of it... I think that it is quite apparent that that mode of operation has been taken up by quite a few others in here as they decide what is Biblical or not, decide that all questios and answers must be accompanied by a scripture when the forum says where possible, use the quotes of great protestant theologians which is tradition and not Sola Scriptura per se, these same people take great lee way to continually chat without a scripture in sight, although in keeping with being somehow Biblicaly based answers I suppose this qualifies as acceptable behavior, and some other continually post indelicate answers meant to show someone they are quite wrong without one drop of Christians grace, although I suppose that is in keeping with the guidelines of the forum. I have had a number of private emails about the clicks that exist in here and to be patient with them because their intentions are not bad, but for good to pursue the Bible and that these people who band together and sometimes gang up on someone, like they did me, mean no harm and love everyone. Who ever was involved in these things concerning me has since apologized, and I to them, and it was more than two folks. What lee way do you think I am being given Val? You have me truly wondering here, the others who have been here a long time take plenty of liberty to say what ever they want back and forth to one another and not very much of it is exegeticaly based and a lot of it affirms one another's belief's, and scripture is not always included, but as soon someone disagrees with the status quo, whether they have a scripture or not then the lee way to express is quashed immediately. But I am being given a whole lot of lee way. I will never again Val say that I aplogize for those who are also sorry Val. I also do not agree with everything you have said about scripture, but I keep my mouth shut every time because I see you engaged in long back and forth dialogues about what you believe on whatever level you have choosen to discuss it and do not think it would be nice to break the flow with a view that is not agreement with all of you who agree so heartily with one another for so very long per subject. I will stop, for the third time apologizing for others Val. I would like to see even one post to the several other members here who have set themselves up as purveyors of this forum telling them that they are somehow in charge of it and presenting themselves as if they speak for the forum. Please next time consider emailing me... Just a thought... God's Day To You, Tamara |

Dear Bonnie, Oh my Bonnie! It would be impossible for your email to be given out unless someone in charge of the forum gave it away, which is against the guidlelines of this forum! They promise to keep that information confidential, or none of us would have come in here and been willing to join up, it prevents quiet personal harassment! The process of the question, not feature only allows for individuals to be able to post a note to you by the forum using your confidential email address to send it directly to you, it does not give out your personal email address! Are you sure these notes did not come as poted notes, which everyone will be able to view, or did these notes not come up for everyone to view? For every question you asked there is a thread at the bottom of the screen; click on to your original question and scroll to the bottom of the page and you will see all the names and notes of people. Some of them are addressed to you, some are not; there is a bar going up which shows who posted to whom.. I am really sorry again for all of us here that care that you were hurt and I apologize again that you were hurt, as John was too... You should not have to be crying for a few hours because of things like this, I remarked to John somewheres else that we all need to be sure to rebuke and exhort in gentleness and meekness of heart. And this is why I made the comments to you that I did trying to comfort and emphasize with you... Someone else, not John, thought I was being fuzzy luvy and did not understand how hurt you really were, they missed that the tone you were being addressed in was not all that nice because Bible scripture was being used as if that covers it all, it doesn't... Something like that may be called for, but with a certain amount of delicacy in delivery to make sure it does not discourage. I have noticed that sometimes based on the type of reply that is given by the questioner to a note posted them that it may generate questions about one's affiliations because the answer one has may reflect an understanding from a secular view and then that is when Sola Scriptura comes out as the driving force behind a repply to that. Keep being led in the way everlasting, loving Sola Scriptura is not more important than loving your brethren..., Stand Strong in the Lord and in the power of His might, Tamara |

51 | Creeds and Confessions Needful? | Bible general Archive 4 | Tamara Brewington | 205833 | ||
Dear quvmoh, Thank you... You said; Claiming to be a Baptist is like claiming to be an American. There are as many denominations among the Baptists as there are subcultures within America. There are Southern Baptists, Cooperative Baptists, Free will Baptists, Anabaptists, Independent Baptists, American Baptists, and on and on. Yes claiming to be a Baptist is like claiming to be an American, but my question was about the specific question of why some Baptist churches whatever their practical bent may be, use creeds and confessions. After all the Roman Catholics aslo do this, but where theirs may go beyond Sola Scrtiptura as the traditions of men, my questions centers around why some Baptists use the traditions of men as the creeds and confessions are... Taking into consideration that they may be based on Sola Scriptura. And in light of that it would not really matter what kind of Baptist I claim to be, but why other Baptist denominations use confessions and creeds... Could someone elaborate for me why some Baptist churches are not inculcated with the various protestant confessions of faith and some are? What would you say about a Baptist church that is not inculcated with these confessions, but goes by Sola Scriptura alone? Thanks for the help quvmoh, Tamara |

52 | Evangelism in Prisons? | Matt 28:19 | Tamara Brewington | 205832 | ||
Dear Forum members, Evangelism is a Biblical concept. When I tried to post before the book of the Bible I choose for a reference did not remain when I finaly hit "submit". The Forum says this; Postings must be Biblically based and not opposing the Bible's sole authority (sola Scriptura), Christianity, or the deity of Jesus Christ. Whenever possible, postings should include supporting Bible references. Please note that it says Biblicaly based not scripturaly based please... And to include a scripture where possible. Does any body know what Christians are allowed to present in prisons? Are they allowed to preach the gospel, is there a restriction not to proselityze openly or something? Evangelizing is Biblical... I have a reason for this, but it is not whether or not I plan to do prison evangelism. God Bless Tam |

Dear lookinforacity, Thank you for understanding that my question was Biblicaly based! It was about a Biblical concept and therefore Biblicaly based... The forum says this; Postings must be Biblically based and not opposing the Bible's sole authority (sola Scriptura), Christianity, or the deity of Jesus Christ. Whenever possible, postings should include supporting Bible references. It says "whenever possible, posting should include supporting Bible references". I tried for all three things I posted last night to use the pick a book of the Bible feature, but the scripture did not appear in any of my posts evern though the page flipped like it should and originaly showed the book I had in mind. So, I guess there are no tenets, by which I mean the Biblical and third dictionary definition as being doctrines, that could be said to comprise Sola Scriptura... You have included a principle here as "to be the only infallible source and rule of faith, and asserts the right of private interpretation of the same, in distinction from the Roman Catholic view, etc.". I get the infallible source and rule fo faith part, but not the private interpretation part, I thought we weren't suppossed to be doing that? All in all though I think you give a thorough explaination of what Sola Scriptura is not; the traditions of men as inculcating the church of Rome. I had a nother question that was hitting on a similar concept, that somehow the traditions of men seem to be held up in some Baptists churches as well crafted traditions of men as being as important as the Sola Scriptura! God's Day To You, Thanks Jim, Tamara |

Dear Forum members, Could someone elaborate for me why some Baptist churches are not inculcated with the various protestant confessions of faith and some are? What would you say about a Baptist church that is not inculcated with these confessions, but goes by Sola Scriptura alone? Not saying the two must be or are mutually exclusive to one another, I can see that they must have been built in some sense on the concept of Sola Scriptura... I am truly ingnorant of these things and really never, ever heard of Sola Scriptura before coming in here, it is not taught at my school (perhaps it is in the church history classess I don't know) and I never heard of it before in my small Baptist church or in the much, much bigger one where my school is affiliated at when I went to hear preaching there. The only thing I remember my pastor saying about anything in this area is that there are a whole lot of things out there that are considered valid creeds and practices, and I as your pastor am not saying they are not valid, but the only thing I will be teaching you here is a literal interpretation of the Bible because the scriptures are the final authority you don't need to learn what I say or what men say, my job is to teach you the Bible and only the Bible. God Bless everyone, Tamara |

Dear Forum members, I understand this much about Sola Scriptura - that the Bible is the sole authoritative word of God. Please correct me if this is a wrong understanding and what if any tenets are listed in this understanding? I did go to Cristian.org and read the article but wonder if there is such a list which I am describing of tenets. Thanks everyone for putting up with my ignorance about some things some times...Tam |
