Bible Question: what is a doctrine |
Bible Answer: A doctrine, as I understand it, is an established understanding of a particular issue. It is often used in the secular sense to speak of a set of beliefs on some political issue. (i.e. the Bush doctrine, the pre-emptive strike doctrine, etc...) With religious connotations, it may refer to something such as "the doctrine of salvation," "the doctrine of the virgin birth," "the once-saved always saved doctrine," etc... Religious doctrines should always be compared to Scripture to ascertain their accuracy. There are false-doctrines. Hope this helps. |
