Subject: Defend truth |
Bible Note: Many claim to defend scripture but in fact what they defend is their reading of scripture. Scripture needs no defense from man, it is well capable of defending itself. What scripture needs is the untainted, clear and concise reading and understanding not in part but in whole. However man has gotten involved and convinced himself that scripture often is not saying what it says, it actually is saying what their man made theology, man made doctrines, man induced prejudices want it to say. They to their benefit dismiss anything that shows their understanding is wrong. Heaven forbid if someone says I have experienced … They immediately retort experience is not scripture and isn’t to be trusted. Yet almost all of scripture is written account of the experiences of men. Why are writers of scripture experiences acceptable when today’s aren’t even though they line up with scripture? Why because they often conflict with the theology, doctrine and prejudices of the person that is rejecting them holds to. 2 Peter 1:20 says scripture is not for private interpretation yet they claim and name their interpretations such as Reformed, Armenian, Anabaptist, Dispensational, Preterist, Ammillennial, Millennial, Historistic and etc. |
