Theocentric Musings

It's very interesting that most that support inerrancy of scripture, say those that don't, "follow man". It's interesting because the majority of the beliefs in the modern church and American Christianity™ aren't from scripture they are teachings from names like Calvin, Darby, Anselm, Augustine, and others, including their local pastors. Those are men, by the way (and possibly some women). Look, please consider this, if you really have no idea of the history of why you believe what you believe, and you only believe it because you were taught it, then please take pause before making statements that infer that you have infallible knowledge about the subject being discussed. Do your homework first, and that means spending time studying church history. Now some people say that the Spirit confirms these things for them, that they don't need to study history. Well, lets try an experiment, how many of your beliefs does the Spirit not confirm? Seems to me...

It is unfortunate that people are so quick to label someone and place an "ism" on a person.  I've had people post "antinomianism" on my page, I'm not part of any "ism", but I do study both early and current church history and beliefs and I pick and choose from many different views out of the bunch.  Sometimes we throw out the baby with the bath water when we label something we don't fully unders tand as outright heresy, without picking the meat and spitting out the bones. It's now gotten to the point where I have found that people have changed Salvation from a belief in who Christ is, what He did, and Him rising, to whether a person believes various other things or not. Surprisingly those other things must line up with the personal belief of the person questioning another's Salvation or they now no longer are saved. It's so silly, I tell ya.
