Subject: What is Meant by Heresy? |
Bible Note: First I believe Hinn is totally wrong. I also think Swaggart violated God's qualifications to be a pastor. That said, I can't see how anyone can call a person a heretic. Since there is over 3000 different doctrinal positions in what we call Protestantism both Hinn and Swaggart falls within one for the church they are carrying credentials for. They might be a heretic to a Baptist but to their denomination whatever that is they are within the guidelines I would suppose. Now they could be call false teachers, wrong, or whatever but heretics? To who's standard. Case in point Hinn got the false teaching of the 9 part trinity from Finis Dake and the Dake annotated Bible. So to Dake and his followers Hinn is not heretical in this teaching. Does it make the teaching correct? Not to me but it was the Reformers that said let each man decide for myself what the scripture is saying, instead of a group of Biblical scholars. I don't think it is an issue of not seeking the truth. The problem is just because Sproul doesn't agree with it, does not make it false. I happen to believe Sproul is wrong on many of his teachings and at least two major US denominations agree. My opinion is the barn door has been opened and the horse are running wild. What opened that door? I believe the Reformed teaching that man could decide for myself what scripture was saying. |
