hmm yeah.... God lead your understanding to know his will and way.
So which "system" you going to choose? considering the Bible was written systematically which all systematic theologians concede and thus why so many systems exist to understand. Which are you going to choose? Have fun!
WHAT??? I thought systematic theologians were scattered, manmade, whatever else you bashed them with. Make up your mind, for crying out loud. You can't discredit them and then use them to prove your point, at the same time.
Well, we've made progress. You've gone from rolling in the floor to shaking your head. Much better, Illegalist. So are you suggesting that the thought-patterns of Systematic Theology and Hermeneutics are speculating and you aren't???
your missing the point. Your pointing to "systematic theology and hermeutics" like some pure art realized when all it is worth is about the same as a commentary.... NOTHING BUT OPINION! AGAIN, sure somethings are worth noting but overall speculation is just that. THe SPIRIT leads. Get past your commentary on what and how to read the Bible form someone elses point of view including mine. Most protestant dogma makes a mockery of his word which came about by these systems that get proven wrong all the time.

Seems like the scattered one is............YOU!!
nice way to take it out of context... typical. Point is you make them like some end all when they EVEN say they are not....

Now I am confused.... about everything said in this thread...
the only thing I am not confused about is that the cross alone cannot save.
that aint biblical and not of works doesnt even believe that.
The cross will not save the unwilling. Salvation takes place when one turns to the cross... or more exact, when one embraces the Gospel (death, burial and resurrection)
There has never really been an argument about that.
The argument has always been what form that embracing takes.

"The cross of Christ alone can save." That's a direct quote from The Holy Bible, so yeah, I believe it!
