Subject: Church Age? |
Bible Note: Hank, Thanks for your response. The word "trinity" does not need to be literally found on the pages of scripture. The doctrine of the trinity is both implicitly and explicitly declared throughout the whole of scripture. There can be no other conclusion to anyone seriously reading scripture from Genesis onward than the reality of the trinity. I don't believe I made any reference to "no such reality as God's progressive revelation to humankind", unless I misunderstood you. In fact, I very much do believe in progressive revelation through God's covenants and have stated so often on this forum. However, the question of a church age still remains unsettled. Scripture either implicitly or explicitly teaches a church age referring to only those saved since Calvary or it does not. I think verifying that would be paramount to this discussion which I think is very important to how many of us interpret scripture. Thanks again, Sam Hughey |
