Bible Question:
gbennett76, Is this an "attack on the authority of the Bible"? If not please explain. Notice the rules before you post: To adhere to StudyBibleForum's intended purpose, please read the following before submitting a post: 1. This post is biblically based and whenever possible, I have included Bible references to support it. 2. This post is not intended as a personal attack on the authority of the Bible or on other users of this forum. Also, there are very many scripture that bare out sola scriptura. The scripture ties itself together with many key cross references, while also excluding the theories of man: John 10:35b ...(and the Scripture cannot be broken), Psalm 118:22 The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. Matthew 21:42 Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the Scriptures: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. This was the LORD's doing, And it is marvelous in our eyes'?[21:42 Psalm 118:22, 23] Mark 12:10 Have you not even read this Scripture: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. Luke 20:17 Then He looked at them and said, "What then is this that is written: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone'?[20:17 Psalm 118:22] Acts 4:11 This is the "stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.'[4:11 Psalm 118:22] 1 Peter 2:7 Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient,[2:7 NU-Text reads [to those who disbelieve.] ] "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone,"[2:7 NU-Text reads [to those who disbelieve.] ] Romans 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. Ephesians 2:16 and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity. James 4:4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Disregard for the authority of the bible is what allows for justifying homosexual bishops and other sexual immorality in the church. Picking and choosing what parts of scripture is for the likes of people of the "Jesus Siminar" and other enemies of God. Pastor Glenn |
Bible Answer: Pastor Glenn I'm not speaking for gbennett and I hope he agrees with me. I think he was talking about things like using scripture to support or deny the use of tongues today. Both sides support their argument on the Bible and both I believe are doing it in honesty. Both sides have great theologians that I respect but obviously both can’t be right and probably both are off just a little. Many feel the Apostles settled much of this very similar to how they settled the Jersualem council debate on Gentiles in Acts 15. A lot of the apostolic verbal traditions were lost from the protestant church when they declared sola scriptura. As I said today we argue an divide over them. I don't think gbennett was giving opportunity to debate homosexuality or anything like that. His point I believe is did the church lose anything in the Reformation or not. I think we did. As I said you can argue you only use sola scriptura today but there are people that oppose you and claim the same thing. If a true analysis could be done we would see both sides used other than Sola Scriptura and didn't even know it. They viewed a word, the verse construction, or understanding under some preconceived notion the other didn't and vice versa. EdB |
