Bible Note: Since the Reformation this has been the Modus Operandi of the church. Men have decided what is true and then created a creed/doctrine that attests to it. This creed/doctrine is then repeated over and over until it becomes more than a creed/doctrine of man but becomes truth. For the most part this is good as in the case of the Apostles Creed. However there have been creeds/doctrines that contain falsehoods that make God out to being nothing more than a puppet master. And that is where the problem arises. Any creed, any doctrine that describes God differently than all of scripture describes Him is false. Any creed, any doctrine that suggests salvation is withheld from all men stands in conflict with scripture that says Christ died for the world. 1 Timothy 2:4 - God desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. [Note: This is the same "all men" for whom we should pray - v1.] 2 Peter 3:9 - The Lord is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. The problem is not with quoting as such the problem is quoting that which is counter to the truth of scripture. |
