Subject: Labels? My church just goes by the Bible |
Bible Note: We were discussing this on another egroup. Using the same Bible yet coming to different conclusions. Something is not right here, and the heathen world is laughing at us. So how are we to know which is truth and which is error? Both opposing views cannot be true, either one is correct and the other wrong, or both are wrong. We then say we have to be led by His Spirit. It's very easy to say that we are led by the Holy Spirit. Is the Holy Spirit showing me the truth? Is the Holy Spirit showing you the truth? Is it the same Holy Spirit? Then how can we disagree when we say we have that very same Holy Spirit? Is the same Holy Spirit showing all the various denominations and churches the truth when so plainly they disagree with each other? Definitely not. The same Holy Spirit CANNOT be claimed to be leading the churches in truth today when they disagree with each other. The same Holy Spirit who inspired the Bible cannot disagree with His Word and with others who claim to be led by Him. No, I'm not doubting that we have to be led by the Holy Spirit and I trust Him completely as it is Him alone that guides us, teaches us and leads us into all truth. So how? |
