Scriptural Acrobats
 

I was reading a Hank Hanegrsaff book once The Apocalypse Code.
I know, I know how can you read a book by Hank? Well a broken clock is right twice a day, And if the Lord could use a donkey to speak in the Old Testament then He can use Hank.

Anyway Hank described how many dispensationalist go through a Scriptural Acrobatic routine to prove their point.

This really struck me. Shouldn't we be able to explain what we believe without power points and pie charts?

So my question is!
What doctrines do you think people come up with by forcing the scriptures to say something the do not? :foottap

Then there are all those attempts to explain away that pesky story of the thief on the cross and how it really doesn't apply to anyone today. Only that one specific time.

Re: Scriptural Acrobats
 

What is there to 'explain away'? Who tries to explain it away?

Re: Scriptural Acrobats
 

Are you saying all doctrine taught in the Bible should require no explanation?
