[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 4818282, member: 65823"] You miss yet again. I assumed too much. Establishing scriptural authority for what one teaches and believes is what I am saying. Gleaming different lessons and meanings that can be used in our life from OT stories and NT occurrences, is not what I'm talking about. Get all you can from any passage. That’s what it’s for. Also, I don’t know how many times I have read a passage for the 1000th time and see something I didn't see the last time I read it. I told you that you deflected and you did. And yeah. it matters. I would hope that whatever you think it takes to be a Christian, that you think you are absolutely correct with what you believe. I'll add the word true as in true to yourself. Jesus asked the Pharisees about the baptism of John.Was it from heaven ( God's authority ) or from men ( Human reason or the authority of man) They answered nothing and the text explains why. Hermeneutics is the fancy word for interpretation. There are three ways to establish scriptural authority for what one believes, practices, and teaches concerning God's word.The rules of interpretation are 1. Direct command. 2. Approved Apostolic example. 3. Necessary inference or conclusion If you believe or practice something not found within these, you are doing it without the authorization of God. Example: Sprinkling for baptism. There is no direct command for that. There is no example of that being done. There is no place that infers it by the way it reads or we are forced to necessarily conclude it by the context Conclusion: Sprinkling someone and calling it baptism is without authority from God and wrong. But to believe that what anyone wants to believe is fine with God and we are all going to heaven we are just on different roads is at best, foolish. 100%?? Name the subject or issue anytime or on any format. With an open mind and heart, I'm always willing to discuss and repent and change if I find that where I stand in my relationship with God has fallen short of His will. It bothers some when one has confidence in the scriptures and speaks them with boldness and without shame. If that bothers you to the point you need to spout personal jabs ( thinking I have it all figured out, dishonest with myself, take the word true out so not to be confusing, 100% correct, prideful. etc..) instead of actually discussing what the Bible says, have at it.
