Bible Note: Doc Please don’t cloud the issue I never charged you with any sin. Correct me If I’m wrong but no where in all this verbiage do I see an answer to my questions. You take us down some scenic roads and I must say I did enjoyed the journey but you failed to answer the questions presented to you. Sir you made two serious charges about me. One you suggested my tradition and I use less that proper exegesis and hermeneutic to discover doctrine and inferred what I ended up with something less than you have. The second charge was I was somehow involved with heresy and apostasy and that had become wedge between us. You made the statements how I ask you explain them or retract them. Once again I post your statements. Question One: You said "I(meaning me) view extrapolating doctrine from Biblical narratives was a valid method for my tradition." My question to you is what gave you that opinion? I have always and repeatedly said doctrines derived by exegesis and hermeneutic if done properly will never conflict with the whole of scripture but rather will stand in complete agreement with the whole of scripture. And further it will do so without the need to reinvent definitions or explain away conflicting words or situations. If you have no supporting evidence then I think you need to retract that statement and it is you that needs to apologize. Question Two: Here is your own word, “Sir, I do not know the root cause of your sensitivity toward me. Perhaps it comes from my inability to happily accept heresy and apostasy as suitable bed-fellows with the truth. Perhaps it comes from my screen name. Perhaps it is something else entirely. I do not know. But I do know this: your sensitivity is causing you to feel offense when none is intended. I have prayed and searched my conscience as I composed this post.” Tell me what heresy and apostasy was I trying to make you accept. Don't beat around the bush, don't tell me what I should or shouldn't do just answer the questions so it is clear to everyone your position toward me. EdB |
