Back To The Bible #can Christians Be United In Doctrine# by Atk1nson(m): 4:02pm On Nov 14, 2010 |
Martin luther,John calvin,king James,Alexander champbell, envisioned a time an era when all will have the bible and see what the TRUTH is for themselves against the will of the roman catholic leadership.They hoped this would bring the about restoration of the TRUE CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE, which had been concealed by the roman catholic leadership policy of restricting access to the bible and buttressed by the aristocratic powers they held to pronounce any disent, blasphemous and deserving of death. Today the bible is readily available,however we now have all sort of doctrines being preached claiming to be from the bible. If we should once more objectively study the bible, could we arrive the TRUE DOCTRINE OF THE BIBLE as practised by the early christian & apostles, and envision by the 'Restoratiön Movement'? Air your view |

@ jenwitemi any christian dat does not agree has not objectively studied the bible |
Re: Back To The Bible #can Christians Be United In Doctrine# by Jenwitemi(m): 2:17pm On Nov 16, 2010 |
Or they have "objectively" studied the bible and chose to interprete it in their own subjective way. Every christian does that. Besides, who sets the standard for objectivity when it comes to studying and interpreting the bible? That is the 1 million dollar question, is it not? Atk1nson: |

Martin luther,John calvin,king James,Alexander champbell, envisioned a time an era when all will have the bible and see what the TRUTH is for themselves against the will of the roman catholic leadership It was never against the will of the catholic church to prevent people from reading the bible. First and foresmost the bible as a collection of christian scriptures was created by this same catholic church you are trying to demonize.The catholic church was also responsible for delineation of the bible into chapters and verses for easy reading. the second point I want you to know is that Luther and Calvin disagreed on many doctrinal issues and both died as sworn enemies. If anyone is to be given the credit for the bible that credit should go to the limes of Augustine,Jerome,Athanasius and others who played key roles in the compilation of the christian bible |

buttressed by the aristocratic powers they held to pronounce any disent, blasphemous and deserving of death. Luther and calvin wre also responsible for the murder of catholics and others who disagreed with their faith.Most Notably is micheal servetus whose execution was endorsed calvin for disagreeing with the doctrine of the trinity |

No don't count on it. When politics, nationalism, and greed is mixed into religion there will never be a time when Christians are united in doctrine |
