Bible Note: Dear Graceful, Allow me to interject some comments regarding the Word-Faith teaching.I offer these more as observations than direct criticism. First off, I do most certainly believe the Holy Spirit speaks to us. One of the more overlooked, yet profound truths of the NT is in Gal.5:16, where the imperative is "to walk in the Spirit and you will not carry out the lust of the flesh". Further, who would deny the proclamation in John 14:26, where the Spirit is not only our Helper/Comforter, but also "teaches us all things". From my general study of the Word-Faith teaching(and I have read Hanegraffs' book, Christianity in Crises) I see two major problems: 1.I've concluded that there is an overall lack of emphasis on the Person of Christ! Christ is not given preeminence as in Col. 2:9-10. "For in Him all fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form,and in Him you have been made complete, and He is head over all rule and authority..."; 2. There is a lack of solid expositional teaching of the Word of God. Topical teaching is the rule, not the exception. Now, I have no problem with topical teaching, however, it CAN be misused to support non-biblical or extra-biblical views. Expositional or verse-by-verse teaching forces one to stay in context and to deal with an entire passage, chapter, etc. I hope this helps, Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
