Bible Question:
I found this site: http://www.bbie.org/english/Study06GodandEvil/0602DevilAndSatan.html It gives solid information as well as I can tell, proving that Satan and the Devil are not a supernatural being. Can anyone who has more expertise in this area give any thoughts? |
Bible Answer: "Christadelphian theology is another clever impersonation of Christianity. It denies the devil's existence as a fallen angel." What do the Christadelphians Teach? sandrider: You write: "I found this site: http://www.bbie.org/english/Study06GodandEvil/0602DevilAndSatan.html" Nice try. What you fail to tell us is that this website is part of The Christadelphian Webring. 'Christadelphian theology is another clever impersonation of Christianity. It denies the devil's existence as a fallen angel, as well as fiery hell, the Trinity, that Jesus' sacrifice was substitutionary, and it teaches that Jesus had a sinful nature. It is definitely not Christian. Read about the Christadelphians here' (www.carm.org). ------------- 'What do the Christadelphians Teach? ' Though they acknowledge many truths found in the Bible, they deny many others. 'They believe the Bible is the infallible and inerrant word of God. (The Christadelphians: What They Believe and Preach, p. 82) 'They teach there is only one God. (Isaiah 43-45) 'They teach that Jesus had a sin nature (What They Believe, p. 74) 'They teach that Jesus needed to save himself, before he could save us. (Christadelphian Answers, p. 24) 'They teach that Jesus will return and set up his kingdom on earth. (What They Believe , p. 268) 'They believe that there has been an apostasy and that Christianity is a false religious system. (A tract titled “Christendom Astray Since the Apostolic Age, Detroit Christadelphian Book Supply) 'They believe annihilation of the wicked. (What They Believe, p. 187). 'They believe that baptism is necessary for salvation. (What They Believe , p. 71,72, 207-210) 'They believe that it is possible to lose one’s salvation. (What They Believe , p. 212) 'They deny the doctrine of the Trinity. (What They Believe, p. 84-87) 'They deny that Jesus is God in flesh. (Answers, p. 22) 'They deny that Jesus existed prior to his incarnation. (What They Believe , p. 85,86) 'They deny the personhood and deity of the Holy Spirit. (What They Believe , p. 115) 'They deny the substitutionary atonement of Christ. (Answers, p. 25; What They Believe, p. 71) 'They deny salvation by grace through faith alone.
