Bible Note: Kalos Once again you miss my point. I'm saying in some of cases of establishing church doctrine, other source aside from scripture were considered. Much of this was done before the term Sola Scriptura was coined. At that time there was only one church and one way to believe. Today we cry Sola Scriptura and end up with thousands of different beliefs. To me that looks like a problem. I think there are places in the bible that is open to individual interpretation, things like are the gifts of spirit manifested today or not, infant baptism, once saved always saved, predistination, divorced men in pulpit, women preachers, wearing of head covering for women, frequency and method of communion, method of baptism, worship styles, etc. Take Isaiah 53:3-5 some within Christiandom claims that is purely spiritual healing the others claim it is talking about physical healing. Can you or anyone else say for certainity that it is one or the other? No. You can't. You can say God heals today and He does, but that does not prove what this verse was referring to. You can say we are to pray for healing but still this particular verse is open to personal interpretation. And that brings division. EdB |
