Bible Note: Greetings Jeff! Thanks for the response my friend! It is rather rainy here today! :-) Allow me to clarify my position just a bit. I do believe that the Holy Spirit speaks, and of course He is the same Holy Spirit. The difference to me is one of degree. The Holy Spirit moved the writters of Scripture to record a unique, new, and infalliable revelation. When I preach, yes the Holy Spirit moves (depending upon whom you ask of course :-) )! However, He is not giving me a new and unique revelation. He is helping me to understand, explain, and apply Scripture. But, He is not adding new Scripture. We may be saying the same thing with slightly different words. But, there are many who believe that Scripture is not the absolute authority in faith and practice, and that God will still give people today a 'new' revelation which can 'replace' or 'add to' the Bible. This is the position with which I disagree. Finally, yes I do study Greek. I have been for about 16 years now. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
