Bible Question: What is the doctrine of Jesus Christ as mentioned in the Bible. |
Bible Answer: Dear jefant: You ask, "What is the doctrine of Jesus Christ as mentioned in the Bible." And then you wrote, "I'm asking about the Doctrine of Jesuse Christ as stated in 1st - 3rd John." The doctring of Jesus is what the whole Bible teaches. The Bible says: Luke 24:27 Then beginning with Moses and with all the prophets, He [Jesus] explained to them [the disciples on the road to Emmaus] the things concerning Himself in all the Scriptures. You see, jefant, Jesus taught from the whole Bible, "all the Scriptures". 2 John 1:9,10 says, "Anyone who goes too far and does not abide in the teaching [doctrine (KJV)] of Christ, does not have God; the one who abides in the teaching [doctrine], he has both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching [doctrine], do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting; So the doctrine of Chist is ALL that the Old and New Testaments teach us about God and what He requires of us. If you are looking for an excellent summary of those doctrines, I recommend the Westminster Confession of Faith. It is a man made summary. I know you don't want what's man-made. But God gives to the church human teachers to help us to grow. And we have the Bible ourselves to see if the things that they are teaching us is right. The Bible says: Eph 4:11 And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, Eph 4:12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ Acts 17:11 Now these [the Bereans] were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.
