Bible Note: Cyclist, The measure of truth, brother, is not how long one has been on a forum nor how much content one has posted. This applies to me as well as anyone else. The measure of truth is "What does God's Word say?" Emmaus has stated that the 4 gospels have primacy over the other writings of the New Testment. He implied that the gospels are the words of Christ and that the rest of the New Testament are the words of mere apostles and men. My point is that Christ (through the Holy Spirt) is the author of ALL of the Bible - He is the Word. For anyone to claim differently shows their lack of knowledge in this particular area. So I was not calling Emmaus an ignorant person, brother, I was just stating that he lacks understanding about the authorship of the Bible. I truly hope that Emmaus researchs the authorship of the Word a little bit more. We should know what we are talking about and be able to back it up with scripture before we label someone else's view as "Bull!" (which Emmaus has done). McGracer |
