Subject: Careful Bible Study -- Not Mysticism |
Bible Note: Dear quomoh, You asked for my thoughts: Plenary inspiration, the authority of Scripture, the necessity of Scripture, the sufficiency of Scripture, the fallen human heart, the flesh, anti-intellectualism, minimalism, experientialism, ignorance, and heterodoxy. You asked for applications: Study the Bible, know the Bible, love the Bible, live the Bible, seek the truth, know the truth, love the truth, live the truth. For the answers to the rest of your questions, may commend to you: "In Christ Alone: Living the Gospel Centered Life" By Dr. Sinclair Ferguson (December 2007) Reformation Trust Publishing. I think you would benefit from reading his book. Regardless, you would benefit by improving your understanding of the doctrine of sola Scriptura in general, and the doctrine of the sufficiency of Scripture in particular. These Biblical doctrines form the basis of our forum, at the behest of our gracious host, by our tacit agreement by posting, and by our explicit agreement by joining the forum. In Him, Doc |
