Bible Note: Doc Of course correct and proper exegesis and hermeneutics must be the sole basis for establishing doctrine. However some of us prefer to consider the total flow of the Bible to shape our conclusions while others prefer to limit their focus to the passages that seem to prove their conviction. This is where the difference lies, one seeks for reconciliation with the whole of God’s word, while the other chooses to focus only that, that bears their conviction and explain away any seeming contradictions. We use many words in an attempt to authentic our position a favorite being “tradition.” However for most “tradition” started less than 500 years ago for others that tradition started with Genesis 1:1. I might add that since I was only one responding to your question this statement must be focused at me and I find it offensive. “Faced with others who do not apply those principles when deriving doctrine, I was curious to know what rules they do apply. Based on the answers I am getting back, it appears that either they do not have any rules, they are unable to articulate them, or they simply do not know how their doctrines were derived.” Sir you have accused many of ad hominem attacks upon you or people you support let me say this in no uncertain terms “This sir is a cheap shot” and one that should not go unnoticed by all on this forum. Good day to you! EdB |
