Bible Note: So you are a proclaimer of Faith alone in Christ alone. So am I! If you read many of my postings, this will soon become obvious. My FIRST teaching, whether when teaching a class or in posting to the Forum, is simply: Salvation is by Grace alone through Faith alone in Christ alone. Way to go, FisH. My favorite scripture verse: Rom 3:28 For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law. (See also Eph 2:8-9) . . . I agree entirely with your previous posting. Well put! Keep on being faithful to the Word. Let God be true, and every man a liar. . . . The most basic principle of interpretation, one which many post-ers either will not or cannot (because they don't understand it?) abide by, is that which John MacArthur writes of: "One of the basic principles of biblical interpretation is the *analogia scriptura*, the analogy of Scripture. In other words, we must compare Scripture with Scripture in order to understand its full and proper sense. And SINCE THE BIBLE DOESN'T CONTRADICT ITSELF, ANY INTERPRETATION OF A SPECIFIC PASSAGE THAT CONTRADICTS THE GENERAL TEACHING OF THE BIBLE IS TO BE REJECTED." (Emphasis by capitalization is mine.) |
